Cold!
But I have to remind myself it IS December. Sometimes in Texas it doesn't seem like winter will ever get here. And then, it comes in with a roar.
It's 32 degrees out, 42 degrees in. I just turned on the heat. But the wind is blowing so we have an even chillier day.
Today I'm at Caroline Clemmons' blog, talking about A Ghost of a Chance at Love and something about my research for the story set in Waco and Salado in the 19th century.

A NIGHT OWL REVIEWS BOOK REVIEW
Reviewed by: Robin
Alicia Greiston is a bounty hunter in Breckeridge, Colorado. She usually goes after female bail jumpers but now she is going after some big fish. She is after a mob boss and his right hand. Alicia's mother has always dated men who are involved with the mob in one way or another. Alicia has always worried about her mother getting hurt. A few months ago her worst fears came true. Her mother and the man she was seeing at the time were shot and killed on a local hiking trail. There were no leads on the case but Alicia knew who shot them and not only that but who had ordered the hit. When both men miss their court date, Alicia is determined to bring them both in.
Jake Silver is the second to his brother who is the pack leader in their small town. His new sister-in-law talks him into taking his wildlife photos to a gallery in Beckeridge. While waiting for the gallery to open, Jake sees a woman taking a picture of the plates on a parked car. When she goes into a local restaurant he follows her in. There is something about her that intrigues not only him but his wolf as well. Jake knows that a relationship between the two of them is not going to happen because Alicia is human. When Jake sees a thug trying to get Alicia to leave the restaurant with him, Jake comes to her rescue. The more time they spend together it seems the closer they grow. When Alicia gets word that the mob boss will kill Jake if she does not leave him, she is worried that it will happen so she skips town. Jake heads back home after having no luck trying to track Alicia down. He starts having dreams about Alicia and he is confused because a dream mating can only happen between two wolfs, not a human. On her own Alicia faces many changes and surprises; she comes to know that she needs Jake.
This is the eight installments of Ms. Spear's Werewolf series. I have loved each and every one of the books in this series. This story is a love-at-first-sight kind of story. The humor between the two main characters had me laughing out loud. There was enough action to keep you on the edge of your seat. I have not been disappointed in any of the books in this series. They are all keepers. Book nine will be out March of 2012 it is titled A Seal in Wolf's Clothing.

And here is another review! I loved her blog name...Fictional Candy, yes! :)
Fictional Candy *sigh* A man, an alpha male, a werewolf. Could it get any better? For years and years I was team vampire, there was nothing else of any importance. However, I think the tides are turning and I am team werewolf. How could you not be? I have yet to read a story about a werewolf that is some wimpy little cowardly pup. No way. They are these big hulking alpha male men, ready to defend and protect their women and their pack at all costs. *swoon*
And now I get to add Jake Silver to my list of favorite. This book is #8 it the Heart of the Wolf series. Which, embarrassingly, I didn't realize when I requested the book from NetGalley. Then looking through my kindle, I see I also have #5!! Whew! Anyhow, this book easily read as a stand alone book. There was no point that I felt lost in this world. Everyone was described and everything fit.
This story's heroine is Alicia Greiston. Her mother was murdered six months ago, and she is out to avenge her mothers death. She doesn't want to kill the guy who did it, she just wants justice and wants him in prison where he belongs. So she goes through training, she becomes a bounty hunter. She may look like this petite little thing, but the girl can pack a punch and uses her feminine appearance to her advantage. Usually she deals with female criminals, but now she has finally been handed the case she really wants. Mario and his henchmen – mob guys.
Then we meet the hero male lead of the story, Jake Silver. Va va va voom, this guy has it all (as I've already noted haha). Oh, did I forget to mention he takes stunning photographs? The man is the whole package. He sees Alicia, and instantly wants her – a human!
I really enjoyed this book, and all of its twists and turns. There was a lot of action, and the picture was painted very clearly. I kept finding myself waiting for my next free moment, itching to turn on my kindle and see what happens next. Poor Alicia keeps finding herself in trouble, time after time. These guys are proving harder to catch than she had anticipated!
And the love scenes were hot, and plentiful enough that I didn't feel like the book was just about these two hooking up or, on the opposite hand, that they didn't feel "it" for each other. They were hot together. And the dreaming was an addition I really enjoyed to this story.
The author did a fantastic job dealing with the wolves in their wolf form. I really felt like I was looking through the eyes of a wolf. The great thing about shifter stories is you get this whole other layer of the characters. Sure, you get to know them as humans, but then you get to really know them – the true person – as their shifter self. And in this book particularly, the way wolves interacted with each other and their surroundings really lent a realistic feel to the book.
I am definitely going to read the rest of this series, starting with book one. Terry Spear has a new fan, and I can't wait to start!
**** RomFan Reviews gave Dreaming of the Wolf 5 man hunks! I couldn't be happier!
Terry Spear once again delivers! Dreaming of the Wolf is another remarkable tale of a man and his mate. The chemistry between Alicia and Jake is full of sensuality very entertaining and bursting with romance and danger that will have you dreaming of your own wolf. I can never get enough of Ms. Spear's wolves and look forward to her next adventure. Annette gives this book
I'm off to get some work done, and hope you all have a terrific Monday and stay nice and warm wherever you are!
