    About this series

    He never wanted a mate. Until he found her—and now she's all he wants.


    I won't—

    Colton Wolfe has never liked witches.

    There’s something about their magic. With a snap of a finger, a witch can cancel out his brute strength, razor-sharp claws, and inch-long fangs. It just isn’t natural. The Para-proof wards constructed by witches always made his fur itch, and it has bothered him for years how they betrayed all paranormals by selling their services to the highest bidders.

    Then a witch nearly killed him and his dislike turned into full-blown hate.

    His brother thinks his anger is unhealthy. Following his brush with near-death, Colt refuses to talk to any packmates. Dodge, his ghostly best friend, can’t even get through to him. Colt keeps himself confined to his workshop, shutting every one out. His wolf is just about rabid and he keeps his beast locked up tight.

    His wolf wants its mate. Colt won’t admit it, but he does, too... even if he’s spent the last four months rejecting her.

    Because Shea is a witch.

    And Colt hates all witches—

    Doesn’t he?


    I can't—

    Shea Moonshadow is a healer first, a witch second. Considering her magic has a way of backfiring on her whenever she tries the simplest of spells, she sticks with what she knows will work. Her herbs and her poultices have never failed her before.

    Now if she could only say the same about her brother.

    Hudson is a Donor, a blood junkie who gives blood to vampires in exchange for a high only a dangerous Nightwalker can give. When he gets in over his head, he does what he’s always done: runs to Shea for help.

    She can’t say no. She’s never been able to say no.

    Not to Hudson.

    Not to anyone.

    And that’s how she finds herself pledged to a blood-bonding with an obsessed vampire...

      In a world where paranormals live side by side with humans, everybody knows about Ordinance 7304: the Bond Laws. Or, as the Paras snidely whisper to each other, the Claws Clause—a long and detailed set of laws that bonded couples must obey if they want their union to be recognized.  Because it wasn’t already damn near impossible to find a fated mate in the first place. Now the government just has to get involved… I remember— Three years ago, Maddox Wolfe lost his mate. Since there’s nothing more dangerous than a bonded shifter on his own, Ordinance 7304 gave him three choices: voluntary incarceration until he’s no longer deemed a threat; a lobotomy-like procedure performed by government-employed witches that would dissolve his bond; or, most final, a state-sanctioned execution so that he could be with his mate again. And while death held a certain appeal in the hazy days following the tragedy, Maddox had his family and his pack to live for. So, refusing to give up his memories of his sweet Evangeline, he chose to spend the rest of his days in the Cage. *** I forget— There's a hole in Evangeline Lewis's memory. The doctors tell her that it's normal, that she'll recover fully in time. After all, it's only been three years since the accident that nearly killed her. They never thought she'd wake up; a nagging, annoying sensation that something's wrong is the least of her worries. Especially since she has so much going on: a new apartment, a new job, her mother's well-meaning attempts at match-making... but tell that to her wayward psyche. By day, she can't shake the feeling that something's missing. And, by night, she can't escape the dreams of a shadow man with glowing golden eyes…

The shelves sagged under the weight of the epic fantasies that stood staunchly like a row of guardians. … The post Why I’ve Stopped Waiting for ‘The Winds of Winter’ appeared first on The Millions.
