Her Forbidden Alpha

TabithaConall_HerForbiddenAlpha360 *** $0.99 for a short time!! ***


A steamy werewolf romance from New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author Tabitha Conall…


Can fated love triumph over the threat of war?


Aislinn Cavett lives a sheltered life, raised in a human supremacist compound and kept separate from the wild variety of non-humans teeming outside the compound’s fence.


North American Pack Alpha Darius Bishop believes peace with the Humans First group is the only way to protect his wolves from ongoing, senseless violence.


When Darius arrives at the Humans First compound for peace negotiations, he finds something he didn’t expect—his mate. Fate couldn’t have chosen a more inconvenient mate for him in the General’s daughter, but Darius doesn’t care. Aislinn is perfect.


War could be the result of their mating. When her father advances and his own wolves turn against him, Darius has to make an impossible choice—his love and his sanity, or the lives of his pack.


This 40,000+ word long book is the second in the Colliding Worlds series. HEA included.

Excerpt:


The SUVs had stopped on a large paved area that she quickly identified as a runway. A hangar lay behind them and not far away sat a small white plane, glinting in the sunlight.


As soon as they were away from the SUVs, Darius pulled her in front of him and pushed her along with his hands on her shoulders. That didn’t seem smart, considering her legs were shorter than his. “I’m going to trip you,” she protested.


“You’re safer in front of me.” As they walked-almost jogged-toward the airplane, his gaze darted from one spot to the next, all around them. She’d seen that alertness in the men around her. He was looking for danger.


Then they reached the steps. He practically lifted her up to the top before she’d even had a chance to do it herself. Then he crowded in behind her, ducking his head to avoid hitting it on the doorframe. He rested his hands on her shoulders again. “Take a seat.”


Any seat? She spotted a free aisle seat near the back but hadn’t taken more than two steps toward it before he pulled her back toward him.


“Here.” He propelled her toward an empty row and stood at the end while she sat by the window. “Everyone ready?”


The door made a sucking noise as it closed. Darius took one last look up and down the plane then sat down beside her and put on his seatbelt. “Got your seatbelt on?” She hadn’t even had a chance to answer before he reached across her and stuck his hand down the side of the seat, brushing against her hip and the side of her thigh in the process.


She pulled back but there wasn’t anywhere to go. “What are you doing?”


“Getting your seatbelt.” He pulled one end of it out of the side of the seat.


She was sitting on the other half. She knew she was-it was Murphy’s Law. Because he was bound and determined to get that seatbelt on her and that meant he’d stick his hand under her butt to find it.


And damned if she wouldn’t enjoy it.


Aislinn grabbed the belt out of his hand and shooed him away. “I can put on my own seatbelt.”


“Then do it.” He didn’t move back, not even an inch.


Ignoring the grasshoppers jumping in her stomach, she maneuvered the other half of the seatbelt out from under her then clicked them into place. “Done.”


He still didn’t move back. She finally looked up to see him gazing at her mouth. “You feel it too.”


“What?”


“The pull. The need. Tell me you feel it too.” After a full second, he thrust himself backward into his seat. “What am I saying? You’re human. You don’t feel it.”


She did feel it. But if she had any hope of going home, she’d better not tell him that. He’d already told her he would never let her go. How much more determined would he be if he knew how he made her blood pressure rise?


After a couple of minutes of silence, he said, “We have a few hours of flying ahead of us. Tell me about yourself.”


Talking about herself was the last thing she wanted to do. Heck, she didn’t like talking about herself with people she knew well. She certainly wouldn’t do it with this stranger. “How about you tell me what’s going on instead? What do you mean when say I’m your mate?”


He shifted in his seat so he could more easily face her. “Fine, we can start there. How much do you know about werewolves?”


How to kill them. Yeah…that wouldn’t be a good thing to say. “A little, but not much.”


His voice dropped, becoming a sexy rumble. “We’re each gifted with one mate in our lifetimes. We don’t get to choose who it is; instead, we feel it when we meet them. They smell…amazing.” He lifted his hand and ran it down her hair. “There’s no mistaking it. When we meet our mates, we know. And you’re mine.”


At least he thought she smelled amazing; that was something. “But what if they can’t be together? I mean-your brother was right. There’s no way you and I can stay together, even if we want to.”


His expression turned fierce. “We do want to. And there’s nothing we can’t do if we set our minds to it.”


How quickly he’d slipped into saying ‘we’…as though they were a pair. She met his gaze but didn’t say anything.


“Mates don’t part,” he said. “And we aren’t going to, either.”


“You can’t keep me against my will.”


A smile danced around his mouth, a mischievousness lighting up his eyes. “Maybe not, but I can make you change your mind about what you want.” His hand rested on her knee. “Just wait until we get alone.”


A shiver went through her. She tried to suppress it, but based on the look he gave her, she wasn’t successful. Why was it that this man who had kidnapped her, who she should be fighting against, made her melt, made her feel alive in a way she’d never felt before, made her wish they didn’t have all of this baggage and nastiness between them and could actually be together?


But they couldn’t.


“What else?” she said. “This mating-it’s like marriage?”


He squeezed her knee. “More than that. And it’s different. We do have a formal ceremony, kind of like a wedding, but the real joining is private. We make love…” His hand slid a little higher on her leg. “And I make you mine by giving you my mark.”


Well, that was clear as mud. She put her hand over his to stop its upward progression, but he turned the tables on her by flipping his hand over and capturing hers.


She had to get control of this situation. “So, what does that mean? What’s a mark?”


He swallowed, his eyes settling on the crook between her shoulder and neck. “I’ll bite you, and even after the bite heals, the magic of it will let other males know you’re mine.”


This time she suppressed the shiver that threatened to run through her, but just barely. Why on earth the thought of him sinking his teeth into her flesh turned her on, she didn’t know. But it did.


“And then what?”


He paused. “What do you mean?”


“And then we’re just joined together forever?”


“Well-yes. We move in together, build a home, have some pups.”


She tried to pull her hand out of his but he wouldn’t let go. “Pups?”


“Wolves breed true. We almost always mate outsiders; we assume that has to do with keeping the gene pool viable. But the children are always wolves.”


Oh, her father would love that. Little werewolf grandchildren running around.


But what was she thinking? She couldn’t become this man’s mate, even if just the sound of his voice turned her bones to jelly. “We can’t do this,” she said gently. “Even if you can get over what my father’s done, my father won’t get over us being together. If you don’t let me go, there’ll be war.”


“He loves you that much?”


She barked a laugh then wished she could take it back. “He doesn’t love me that much. He loves his pride. He could never handle the idea that something or someone of his was taken by the wolves. He’d have to get me back. And he wouldn’t care how many people had to die so he could have his victory.”


Darius gazed at her, saying nothing. After several moments, she had to look away. It felt like he was looking inside her soul, peeling back every shield she’d put in place to keep herself safe. She tried again to pull her hand away, and again he wouldn’t let her.


“It must have been hard to grow up with a father like that.” His voice was so soft she almost couldn’t hear him. “No wonder you wear such heavy armor.” He ran his hand down her hair again, but stopped at her shoulder, letting his thumb rub against her cheek. “You can take it off now. I’ll never let anything hurt you, ever again.”


Fear scrambled up her throat, and inside, she retreated. She couldn’t stand for anyone to look so closely at her, to see her so well. If they looked too closely they’d see the truth-she was worthless. Just a pawn, and not a good one at that.

Cover Reveal & Excerpt: Her Forbidden Alpha

Her Forbidden Alpha will be out next week. Check out the gorgeous cover and a short excerpt below!


TabithaConall_HerForbiddenAlpha500


Aislinn carried a platter full of meat into the meeting hall, following after several of the older women. She wanted to get her first look at werewolves—real werewolves—but was afraid she’d drop the platter if she didn’t look where she was going. How horrible would it be if she dropped it and everyone stared at her?


After she put the platter down, she turned to take a careful look, only to find one of the wolves staring at her. He wasn’t even trying to hide it. He was standing out in the middle of the floor looking straight at her and another one of them held his arm as though holding him back.


Had she done something wrong?


He stood taller and broader than the others. His hair looked black but it was hard to tell with it so short. His dark gaze was so intense she could almost feel it on her skin.


She headed for the kitchen, eager to hide away from his eyes.


Her father came through the hall door. “Aislinn!” He motioned her to him.


She was supposed to play hostess. The dark wolf had almost made her forget. She wiped her damp palms on her skirt and went to stand by her father.


“Welcome,” her father said. “I’m General Cavett. We’ll get started shortly. In the meantime, I’m sure you’ve had a long journey. My daughter and some of the women from the compound will serve you lunch.”


When she raised her eyes, the dark wolf still stared at her. He took a breath then tore his eyes from her face to look at her father. “I’m Darius Bishop, North American Pack Alpha.” His voice sounded deep and commanding. He walked toward them, reaching his hand toward her father. “We thank you for your hospitality.”


Her father gazed at the wolf’s hand for a moment before gripping it in his. Then he held Darius’ hand so tightly the veins stood out on his skin—her father’s skin. The wolf showed no reaction at all…until her father let go. Then his gaze darted to hers.


“It’s good to meet you,” he said to her as he held out his hand to her. “I’m Darius.” His voice sounded husky as he said the last few words.


She was going to have to shake hands with him? She wiped her hand on her skirt before placing it in his, hoping he wouldn’t take her father’s rudeness out on her. “Aislinn.”


“Miss Cavett,” her father corrected.


She barely heard him. Darius held her gaze, his hand warm around hers but not too tight. His attention made her feel warm inside. For a long moment, there was nothing and no one but this mysterious stranger and her.


“Aislinn.” Her name sounded fresh and warm falling from his lips. “It suits you.”


Her Forbidden Alpha will be available at a bookstore online next week . Stay tuned!

My Sexy Saturday: Her Kilted Wolf

Here are seven paragraphs from my newest release, Her Kilted Wolf:


The door in front of her jerked open and a tall, half-naked male stood in front of her, a towel tied around his waist and his wet hair sticking up. “You came.” He grinned, his blue eyes lighting up.


Before she could say anything, he grabbed her around the waist and yanked her against him, covering her mouth with his.


Oh, mama.


He was a wolf, definitely a wolf. And very glad to see her.


He pulled her backward into the room. A few seconds later, she heard the door slam shut. Still kissing her, he swung her up into his arms.


Mattie put a hand between them and pulled away just far enough to say, “Wait—where are we going?”


He grinned again, his gorgeous brown eyes sparkling. “To bed, of course.”

Just one problem—they both love their countries and don’t want to move. How can they be mates an ocean apart?

Excerpt:


Mattie followed the scent out of the room and into the hallway. The scent trail seemed fresh, and yet her mate wasn’t there. Maybe he had already left before she got there?


She continued to follow the scent. When she got to the second turn, she knew she’d never find her way back without help, so she pulled out her cell phone and took video of each of the twists and turns. Hopefully, she’d find her mate at the end of this journey and he could lead her back to the Great Hall, but if not, she’d need the footage.


Darius would wonder where she’d gone, but he’d understand once she explained. Finding your mate was everything.


Who would he be? A wolf, hopefully. But if he was a wolf, why hadn’t he scented her?


Mattie jogged up some stone stairs, still following the delicious smell. With just the scent in her nose, she already felt like melting. She wanted to find her mate and drag him to the nearest bed where they could wallow in each other until their scents were so mixed no one could tell them apart.


What if he wasn’t a wolf? Other species didn’t necessarily know when they’d found their mates. Sometimes they had to be convinced, and it wasn’t always a fun experience.


The scent trail suddenly dead-ended at a tall wooden door, the fifth such door on that hall. Worse, the door was closed. What should she do? Should she knock? She shifted from one foot to the other, trying to decide what to do.


The door in front of her jerked open and a tall, half-naked male stood in front of her, a towel tied around his waist and his wet hair sticking up. “You came.” He grinned, his blue eyes lighting up.


Before she could say anything, he grabbed her around the waist and yanked her against him, covering her mouth with his.

Top Off Tuesday: The Raider by Monica McCarty

I’ve been reading a lot of Scottish romances lately, and in keeping with that, I’m sharing a totally yummy Scottish cover this week. Enjoy!


And if you like this one, you might check out the cover reveal I posted yesterday for my upcoming Scottish short story.


The_Raider-274x450


After consolidating his gains against the enemy English, King Robert the Bruce of Scotland sends his best soldiers to fortify the lawless borders. These legendary warriors of the Highland Guard let nothing come before king and country—except the calling of their heart.


Of all Bruce’s elite warriors, Robert “Raider” Boyd is the most formidable. A true patriot whose bare hands are a deadly weapon, Robbie is the fierce enforcer of the Guard, and his hatred of the English has been honed to a razor-sharp edge. But vengeance proves bittersweet when his enemy’s beautiful sister falls into his hands and he finds himself fighting temptation—a battle he badly wants to lose.


Lady Rosalin Clifford barely recognizes the rebel prisoner she saved from execution six years ago. Though her girlish ideals for fairness have matured into a passion for justice, Rosalin believes she betrayed her brother when she helped this dangerous man escape. Now her traitorous act has come back to haunt her. But she can’t deny the longing this tormented warrior ignites in her, or deny the passion that turns sworn enemies into lovers. Is the gentle love of a true English Rose enough to free Scotland’s most brutal warrior from a path of vengeance—before it’s too late?

Curvy, young hillswoman Kay Mandrell finally has gotten up the courage to run off her abusive, sadistic husband with a sawed-off shotgun. But her no-good man is more dangerous than most. Her husband comes from a long line of skinwalkers who can shapeshift into any form they wish, and most humans are powerless against them. Now Kay finds herself living in fear day by day, waiting for her husband to reappear and seek revenge. The last of her kin living on Scopes Mountain in Tennessee, she is vulnerable and alone.


Jordan Lawless is a Country and Western superstar recording artist whose own family hails from Scopes Mountain, but his mother took him away from there when he was just a child. When his mother dies, Jordan records a cover of her favorite Bluegrass song “High on a Mountain.” In honor of his mother’s memory, Jordan decides to shoot the music video on Scopes Mountain, curious about where he was born.


His manager and producer, however, try to discourage him from taking a film crew into this part of Appalachia. So does his mother’s best friend, who manages the Nashville club where Jordan first got his start as a singer and musician. Scopes Mountain also is nicknamed “Shifter Mountain” because of the legends and rumors of skinwalkers inhabiting the area. These legends have ensured that even the most adventurous hikers and campers never set foot there.


When Jordan tracks down the perfect setting for the music video, however, it happens to be on property that Kay Mandrell’s family has owned for generations. When Jordan and the film crew arrive on Shifter Mountain, he immediately falls in love with Kay, but he can tell he must proceed cautiously. Kay believes she is undesirable, and she has learned the hard way that for her the touch of a man usually brings pain and destruction.


With Jordan, Kay starts to feel that it is safe to experience passion with a man who adores her instead of abuses her.


Standing between the woman he loves and a rival evil in the form of her Ex, Jordan learns of his own family’s skinwalking legacy. He finds himself caught between his supernatural generational past and the hard road he must go down in the future in order to win Kay’s love and trust, as well as to save both their lives.

Top Off Tuesday: The Reiver by Jackie Barbosa

I’m on a total Scottish kick (probably because I’ve been writing some Scottish stuff lately too), so for my inaugural Top Off Tuesday post, I wanted to share a hot Scottish cover. Check it out!


TheReiver_final_600x900


Duncan Maxwell, laird of Lochmorton Castle, gets the shock of his life when he discovers the reiver captured in a raid on his lands is not a boy, but a young woman. Although she flatly refuses to tell him her name or how she came to be riding with a raiding party, Duncan cannot countenance imprisoning a woman in his dungeon but neither can he release her without compensation. Unable to ransom her back to her family, he treats her as an honored—though exceptionally well-supervised—guest. He takes to calling her Reva and determines to seduce the truth of her identity from her. There’s just one problem—the reiver may steal his heart before he can reveal her secrets.
