Hello and welcome to the Hump Day Hook. Here is an excerpt
from my second published book Love Kills (A Redcliffe Novel), when our
heroine Jessica Stone returns to the wolves’ lair, against her better
judgement.
Danny was looking straight at
me with his familiar deep blue, hypnotic eyes.
It was as though I was staring at Jack and I struggled to collect
myself. His voice was soft, gentle, and
even sensual. I was very aware of his
hands on my shoulders, the strength in his body.
“They know I am fond of you
Jessica,” he said quietly, “I cannot deny that. And I have never invited humans into our lair before. My wolves are mistrustful because the
females want to offer themselves as my mate.
The position would elevate their individual power and control, and for
them it is a desirable role.”
I slowly took in what he was
saying.
“So they think that I want to
be your mate?” I asked slowly.
Danny nodded.
“But
that’s crazy,” I exclaimed, “I don’t want to be a werewolf! I mean…”
I faltered, embarrassed and
Danny smiled.

Ohh, I don't think she'll remain a human and unmated for long :D Great hook!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Well, things never turn out quite as you expect in Redcliffe...
DeleteNow I'm wondering who is Jack? And is she going to become part of the pack here soon. Nice hook :)
ReplyDeleteJack is her vampire lover, and Danny's identical twin brother. Confused? You will be!
DeleteGreat setup, well done.
ReplyDeleteThank you Lucy!
DeleteI wonder who is Jack too and I love werewolves!!
ReplyDeleteAnswered above (he's a vampire), and thanks! Those pesky wolves have found their way into my heart too, and now they are very much a central part of the Redcliffe novels.
