Title: Time Shifters
Author: Myra Nour
Series: Standalone
Genre: Paranormal Romance w/ Time Travel Elements
Publisher: Self-Published
Release Date: May 1 2015
Edition/Synopsis: eBook
Blurb/Synopsis:
Briana has heard his voice for years in dreams. Calling to
her. She hears that same voice in the handsome stranger she meets on vacation.
Captivating and so familiar. When he unexpectedly transforms into a werewolf,
Briana flees in horror. She knows him … he is the wolfman who haunts her
dreams. More than anything else, it is her lustful response to the beast that
terrifies her.
When Raynor finally meets his mate, he is confused by her
reaction and even more so by her response when he shifts. She doesn't recognize
him. In an attempt to escape, Briana jumps through the time portal of his
people, landing her in Medieval England. Raynor must rescue her, which requires
bonding with Briana as her mate. But first he must teach Briana that she is a
shifter, then convince her not to be repelled by her other self, an ancient,
powerful shifter. A snakewoman.
Excerpt:
“Oh,” she groaned aloud. There he was again, the dark
mysterious figure that haunted her more nights than she cared to count. This
time, they stood facing each other in the middle of a night-black forest; she
was already frightened, her breathing frenzied and her heart pounding. She felt
like she was caught in the middle of a Twilight Zone episode—death approached,
but it was as if she were stuck in quagmire and couldn’t move.
He edged closer, stepped into the moonlit glade between her
and the protective foliage that had covered his form. A werewolf! Briana was
shocked. Even though she was a strong person, she was too scared to move an
inch. She’d expected a menacing stranger, not a fictional monster. He looked
real enough, his body bulky with muscles, and she even noticed a musky odor.
Abruptly, the creature jumped in one great predatory leap,
landing directly in front of her. His weight crashed a small branch into
kindling as he landed. Strangely, she wasn’t frightened, not now. Why? She
didn’t know. Her heart thudded heavily against her chest, her breathing came
out in short pants, but from another source entirely—she was turned on. Briana
found this startling. The appearance of a savage, beast-like wolfman made her
hot? It was insane, this sudden switch from terror to lust.
For years, she had been involved in strange encounters with
this mystery man, who tonight, had turned out to be a nightmarish creature. But
this was turning into the weirdest experience she’d ever had. Once he had made
his appearance in wolf/human form, she no longer feared his presence. It was as
if there was a connection between them, a hidden knowledge she found puzzling.
“Who are you?”
His answer was a guttural growl, then a pounce onto her
body. She fell to the ground, landing uninjured on a soft pile of leaves. For
some crazy reason, she knew he did not intend to hurt her. The beast’s body was
heavy, his long hair tickling against her exposed skin. She glanced down at her
naked body, again surprised; she’d been wearing her nightgown earlier.
Drool dripped onto her chin and she looked up into its
beautiful, but eerie golden eyes, strangely unaffected by the savage grin of
its fanged mouth. She still wasn’t frightened.
Review:
I was a little nervous when I read that this deals with time travel and shifters but I had nothing to worry about. Myra delivers orignal take on shifter books that had me loving this book from page one. There is everything you want in a shifter book. It has passion, danger, action, and super steamy sexy scenes then you add in an amazing story with great characters and you will be hooked just like I was. I am definitely going to be reading more from this author in the future. 4/5 Bloody Fangs
