She's his mate, and while he'll be as patient as possible, no way is she doing anything without him from now on.

A standalone title in New York Times bestselling author Vivian Arend's light-hearted, feel-good paranormal series. ~~~~~ It's not easy fighting destiny.   Since discovering his heritage, Alaskan bush pilot Tad Maxwell has been torn between two worlds—human and wolf. He's close to giving up on his dreams when Missy Leason suddenly re-enters his life. Ten years ago, their teenage attraction never went beyond hand-holding. Now their chemistry is off the charts, pushing him closer to a step he's not sure it's safe to take, especially with a human.   Yet Missy is more like Tad than he realizes. She's a wolf too, and a wolf pack is a dangerous place to have secrets. Missy's unscrupulous Alpha has sniffed out her carefully hidden Omega powers, and she's on the run—straight into Tad's arms. While every touch between them is flaming hot, it's only a matter of time before she'll be tracked down.   If his un-tested power isn't strong enough to save her, they could both end up dead.   Warning: Contains nasty Alphas, secret Omegas, and werewolves acting raunchy on the dance floor. Sarcasm, wilderness cabins, and hot nookie back by popular demand.

The first title in New York Times bestselling author Vivian Arend's light-hearted, feel-good paranormal series. ~~~~~ Talk about getting your signals crossed…   When her brother cancels their backcountry ski trip, Robyn Maxwell takes it in stride. The fact she's deaf doesn't make her survival skills any weaker, and she's been craving the chance to escape into the Yukon wilderness.  Only the sexy beast of a man she bumps into at the cabin starts cravings of another kind, setting her hormones raging as well as raising strange questions about wolves, and mates, and pack challenges.   All wilderness guide Keil Lynus wanted was a nice quiet retreat before challenging for the Alpha position of his Alaskan pack. He wasn't planning on meeting his destined mate, or finding out she's not aware she has the genes of a wolf. Between dealing with his accident-prone younger brother, a deaf mate with an attitude and an impending duel to the death, his week—and his bed—is suddenly full.   Far from the relaxing getaway any of them had in mind…   Warning: Gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "talking with your hands". Includes dangerous use of sarcasm and hot nookie in a remote wilderness sauna.    

A standalone title in New York Times bestselling author Vivian Arend's light-hearted, feel-good paranormal series. ~~~~~ Score one for the underdog…er…wolf.   TJ Lynus is a legend in Granite Lake for his easygoing demeanor—and his clumsiness. His carefree acceptance of his lot vanishes when his position as best man brings him face to face with someone he didn't expect. His mate. His very human mate. Suddenly, one thing is crystal clear: if he intends to claim her, his usual laid-back attitude isn't going to cut it.   Pam Quinn has a short agenda for her time in the north: act as maid-of-honour for her best friend, enjoy a Yukon wilderness trip, and maybe indulge in a little Northern Delight with the delectable best man, TJ. Nothing serious, though, because she knows too well that true love is a fairytale that seldom, if ever, comes true. Being kidnapped wasn't on her list…   Stuck together in the wilderness, TJ's got one shot to convince her that some fairytales are worth fighting for.   Warning: By popular demand: clumsy sidekick wolf grows up, sarcasm reigns, and the wilderness gets wilder. Includes hot nookie in places you expect—like a remote cabin—and places you don't.

A standalone title in New York Times bestselling author Vivian Arend's light-hearted, feel-good paranormal series. ~~~~~ Into the best-laid plans a little chaos must fall…   Wolf-about-town, Jared Gilliland, hides secrets within secrets, but his love of the female persuasion isn't one of them. It's woman-trouble that disrupts his quiet morning coffee near the harbor and ends with him on a cruise ship impersonating one of his pack mates. No worries. It's just a new adventure to enjoy—until he's confronted with someone who makes his inner wolf sit up and howl. Suddenly, Jared's stuck in limbo; wanting to protect, needing to stay away.   Keri Smith joined her best friend for the shifter-only sailing of the Arctic Wolf Cruise. Her job is supposed to be trouble-shooter, so while she's nearly positive the last-minute recruit sneaking aboard the tour is her mate, ix-nay on confirming that at least for the next ten days. Getting tangled up in mating lust would reduce her skills to nil. Avoidance of the sexy wolf for the duration of the cruise, followed by jumping his bones, seems the logical solution.   But when libidos are on the line, "logic" and "wolves" don't go together.   Warning: Really? You need to be warned about the hot nookie and sarcasm? Yeah, it's in here. Also, colourful cat shifters, lupine royalty, and wild adventures in cabins like you've never seen before.

A standalone title in New York Times bestselling author Vivian Arend's light-hearted, feel-good paranormal series. ~~~~~ Cat got your tongue?   The historic landlocked paddle-wheeler Tessa Williams spots in Haines, Alaska, strikes her as the perfect location for an Eco-tour B&B. When the owner refuses to sell, though, she's sure a little in-person charm is all that's needed. What she finds is a handsome wolf who greets her with a scalding hot kiss followed by the announcement that they're mates. But she's a cat…and cats don't do insta-mates.   Local wolf-slash-owner of said vessel, Mark Weaver, isn't hanging on to the landmark building out of spite. There are more reasons for holding back the sale than are easily explained on paper. The sexual attraction between them isn't in question, just everything else. He wants her. She wants twue wuv. His wolf can't figure out what the holdup is. Her cat thinks the entire situation, and the pack, are rather amusing.   Somewhere in here is the beginning of a beautiful relationship—if they don't drive each other mad.   Warning: One hyper cat, one laid-back wolf. Inappropriate use of permanent markers, and a heaping side dish of cat/dog jokes. Shenanigans (read: nookie) in front of a roaring fire. Spiced liberally with sarcasm. Enjoy!
