Today on my blog I have The Howling Heart tour. On my stop there is a spotlight, excerpt, review, and giveaway.
Paige Donovan is an ambitious college graduate who aspires
to reach the top of the corporate ladder. She’s climbing fast when given the
promotion of a lifetime at a prestigious fashion magazine in New York City. Her
bright future comes to an unexpected halt after news of her father’s death. She
inherits his old cabin in the Colorado Rockies, and just when she thinks her
luck couldn’t get any worse, she has a car accident in the mountains and
awakens in the small, remote community of Black River.
Soon, she’s engulfed in the mystical world of
Varulv---wolves descended from 13th century Scandinavia and blessed by Norse gods
with the ability to appear human. Paige is desperate to return home, but never
expects to fall for her rescuer, Riley Gray, a charming young werewolf from
England who offers her an alternate future with his pack.
Now, she must choose between the career she’s always wanted
and the love she’s always dreamed.
Excerpt:
I stood in the hardware section looking at flashlights, when
I suddenly felt someone staring at me. I tried to remain inconspicuous as I
glanced to my left without turning my head. At the end of the aisle stood a
slender, young man at least six feet tall, wearing a red and black plaid,
flannel shirt with cut-off sleeves. Lean muscles flexed on his bicep as he
grabbed something off the shelf. His bare arms revealed a tattoo on his right
shoulder, but I wasn't close enough to read it.
He must've felt my gaze on him, because he looked over at
me. The sun gently kissed his skin with a golden tan, and his full lips spread
into a charming grin. He had a clean-shaven, square jaw and sharp cheekbones
that would make any woman envious. His sandy blonde hair flowed like waves and
curled softly on the ends, brushing his ears and collar. A few, untamed strands
fell in his eyes, making his hair appear disheveled. There was no doubt in my
mind he was handsome.
Immediately, a heat wave crashed beneath my skin...and
I knew it wasn’t due to the summer weather. I blushed under his steady gaze and
looked away in an attempt to ignore him. For some reason, I couldn't control
myself. My gaze kept finding his. A smirk played on his lips—the color of a
summer peach—and I wondered if they tasted as sweet.
Review:
Not only is this cover gorgeous but the story is so good I
finished it one sitting.
Paige is given a promotion but on the day that is suppose to
the greatest for her she finds out her dad passed away leaving her the cabin
they use to vacation at when she was a kid. Her mom immediately wants her to
sell it but Paige goes against it and decides to keep the cabin. Paige decides
to go visit the cabin after having dreams about the white wolf pup she saw
there when she was a kid.
The book is a little strange at first but quickly turns into
a page turner. I enjoyed the story line and Riley is just so sexy. My heart
broke for him that he has been howling for his lost love Paige but than she
comes back to him after she hears his howling in her dreams. Which change the
plans she has set for her life when she realizes they are mates. Will the pack
leader allow Riley and Paige to be together? To find out you need to read The
Howling Heart.
I loved this book and I can’t wait to read more from April.
