I Wasn’t Going to Post Today Because I Have so Much to Do, But…

I wasn’t going to post today because I’ve GOT to finish A SEAL Wolf Hunting edits today, turn it in and finish 2 bears by tomorrow at noon. At least that was the plan. 🙂 <3 But then I got this terrific review at Fresh Fiction, and one from Angel’s Guilty Pleasures, and  I had to share the steampunk bear and sherbet bears I just finished for a couple of orders, and I just had to drop in share about the spider takeover.

So here I am, and then I’m in the bear cave to edit! 🙂 <3

Love this review!!!

Holiday | Romance Paranormal

A HIGHLAND WOLF CHRISTMAS is Book fifteen in Terry Spear’s Heart of the Wolf series. As always, Terry Spear balances great characters, eroticism, and high-energy story- telling to make a compelling read. A HIGHLAND WOLF CHRISTMAS is another story by this author that I was anxious to read, and sad to see end.

A HIGHLAND WOLF CHRISTMAS is both fun and exciting. The camaraderie between the members of the MacNeill family, and Guthrie’s bodyguard attempts make for some lighter moments. These lighter moments act as a nice counterpoint to the drama and danger surrounding Calla being stalked by her ex. Terry Spear does a wonderful job drawing both of these characters out and adding depth to them. Guthrie really surprised me by not being the crotchety spendthrift I thought he would be. Instead, he’s sexy and has a big heart. Calla is not a warrior or fighter but she stands up to her ex when he tries to push her around. She shows a strong character and courage. I love how Guthrie’s family welcomed Calla and made her feel like a part of their family — even before she officially got together with Guthrie.

A HIGHLAND WOLF CHRISTMAS is a holiday treat — a romance that sizzles and entertains. The familiar characters from previous books make a great addition to the story and don’t take anything away from the romance between Guthrie and Calla. I love this Heart of the Wolf series by Terry Spear and eagerly await the next installment.

But when I went out to take her picture by the bell, where I can sit the bears more easily, I had found a spider takeover.

– 4.5 Highland Wolf Stars –

I love picking up any of Ms. Spear book’s. They always feel like a new adventure, with great characters and sweet romance. She writes the most interesting shifter characters. I especially love reading about her highland wolves. They are just so yummy.

Hero of a Highland Wolf is book fourteen in Heart of the Wolf series by Terry Spear. Hero of a Highland Wolf can be read as a standalone. We get humor, sweet romance, revenge and family.

I was pulled in from the first page. Really who can not be pulled in by brawny werewolves in kilts and nothing else. I’m a sucker for sexy highland shifters of any kind and when they are dressed in kilts only. Oh Baby! Let me get my fan. What does a shifter wolf wear under his kilt? You guessed it! 

Grant MacQuarrie is the caretaker of Farriage Castle which Colleen Playfair inherited. Grant has some fears, so he hatches a plan. Let me tell you I loved this plan and got a great laugh when the plan does not work and the joke is on Grant as Colleen is best friends with Julia. This book is a lot of fun, the romance builds slowly with misunderstandings, danger and a rival. When they finally get together the scenes are smoking hot! We always get a great cast of characters in Ms. Spear book’s and this one is no different. I love the camaraderie of the pack’s and the ladies’ party was so much fun to read.

What I like best is you don’t need to have read each book in order to understand and enjoy them. If you have not yet had a chance to read this series, get started. It is well worth the time. Ms. Spears is a fantastic writer and her humor is wonderful.

It’s going to take a lot of mistletoe…

Guthrie MacNeill, financial advisor for his clan and werewolf pack, is at his wit’s end when the pack leader’s mate hires a gorgeous party planner to bring holiday cheer to the castle. Guthrie’s wildly attracted to Calla, except he can’t reconcile the fact that his job is to save the clan’s money, and hers seems to be to spend it.

 

Sourcebooks Holiday Hop + iPad Mini Giveaway: A Highland Wolf Christmas by Terry Spear

We had tremendous storms last night and so today, it’s clearing and my workmen are coming back to do some more projects. The storm a couple of weeks ago took out some of the roofs off some buildings in Waco. Saturday’s storm, not sure. Last night was really bad again and it had me up and unplugging computers and stuff. Electricity went out 5 times. Another storm system coming in on Monday next week. But we’ve so needed the rain, I can’t complain and the temps are dropping, and I’m thrilled!

Happy Wolf Awareness Week!

Okay, I’m off to really work. Have 8 chapters to finish reading/editing, then turn in. And another bear to make. 🙂 Well, lots more, but one that needs to ship soon. 

Have a super great Thursday!!!

Feeling a Little Blue?

blue dragonfly2 all blue (800x763)

I went out to check on one of my new trees that’s wilting, wilting, wilting in this horrible Texas heat with no rain is sight. And saw this blue dragonfly. I unsettled him, but hoped he’d return. So I rushed into the house, changed out lenses, and ran back outside to take pictures of him.  I kept approaching, snapping pictures, afraid I would make him fly off.  And I did. 🙁 But, I was able to get pretty close.

He’s looking a little blue.

Have a lovely Sunday!!! And remember to look around you. You never know what you might see.
