Today, I’m continuing on with chapter 3 of my upcoming paranormal romance, Secrets of Lunar Falls. In this scene, Gabe has followed Carly to the local diner, having seen her enter the establishment from across the street.
This was a woman that he could not pursue, no matter how beautiful she was or how badly he wanted to bury his nose in the crook of her neck and inhale. No matter how his body was insisting otherwise, Carly Tipton could not be the woman for him. His life was complicated enough as it was – he did not need to add a human mate to the mix. Not that it was never done, but it would be an impossible situation for him with his position in the pack, and he knew without a doubt that his mother and his grandfather would fight him every step of the way. And that was a battle he wasn’t sure he had the strength for.
No, he could not pursue Carly Tipton. And yet, here he was, purposely going out of his way to see her, to spend a few moments being near her.
“What the hell are you doing, Gabe?” he asked himself.
Secrets of Lunar Falls is now available for pre-order on Amazon, Barnes&Noble, iTunes and Kobo. Here’s the official blurb:
When veterinarian, Dr. Carly Tipton, takes a new job in the tiny farming community of Lunar Falls, she expects to build a new life for herself. She expects to meet new people and have new experiences. Maybe she’s even expecting a little adventure. But what she’s not expecting is to fall head over heels in love – not with the town, and certainly not with its ruggedly sexy sheriff, Gabriel Masters. She’s also not expecting all the secrets Lunar Falls is hiding. Secrets that could destroy everything she ever believed was true about her own heritage and the family she left back home.
Gabe isn’t ready for Carly when she blows into town. That woman has the power to bring him – a man born and raised to be a GrandAlpha – to his knees, and she’s human! That simple fact alone makes her dangerous to Gabe’s position within the pack. But the fact that he can’t seem to stay away from her tells him that this woman is the one. Human or not … she’s his mate. And now Gabe has to find a way to make their bonding complete without sparking a civil war among his people.
Secrets of Lunar Falls is book one of an adult, sexy shifter romance trilogy.
