Blurb
Maggie is a wolf shifter who was captured and experimented on by the Kurjans. Now that a cure has finally been found for shifters (although not for vampire mates or witches), she can concentrate on creating a new life for herself and finally accepting that her memories are gone forever. Most memories, that is. Sometimes in the hazy world between dreams and dawn, she hears a Scottish voice, dark and deep, that sounds suspiciously like wolf-shifter Terrent Vilks. A man she happened to anger by kidnapping a few years back. Hey, it was for a good cause.Terrent Vilks knows more than he’s let on for the past several years. After digging for answers, he knows exactly why the demons want Maggie dead. And he remembers his past with Maggie…very well. She is finally where he wants her. Now all he has to do is discover what exactly the Kurjans did to her, beat the demons into so much submission they leave her alone, and get her to fall in love with him. Again. Good thing he’s used to wrangling monsters.
Lesley's Review
I was thrilled
when I received the ARC for Twisted.
I am a BIG fan of this series.
Rebecca Zanetti has worked her literary magic again. I couldn’t stop reading
once I started. Twisted is book 5.5 of The
Dark Protectors series. I do not recommend reading if you have not read the
previous books. This Novella is about TerrentVilks and Maggie. We met these
characters in previous books and I don’t know about you all but I was hoping
there was romance budding between the two. But I did not expect the Twist in
the story. The twist being that Terrent knows Maggie and they have a serious
past.
“I want you to
remember me from before you were kidnapped ten years ago.”
Maggie, the smart-assed, clumsy wolf shifter, whose memory
has evaded her for the last ten years, is sent to Wolf shifter headquarters to
ferret out the traitor sabotaging the vaccinations. She has spent the last 10
years with the vampires and not with a wolf pack. Excited and nervous to be
around her “people”, she’s hoping to help the Realm by catching the
perpetrator. Maggie is taken toTerrentVilks. The man who makes her feel strange
things, and quite frankly makes her nervous. Well, she did take him hostage
once.
As head of the Bane’s Council, Terrent is in charge of hunting
werewolves and investigating Shifter affairs. He’s all Alpha male and ready to
claim his mate. He’s finally gotten Maggie where he wants her. With him but, she
is one stubborn woman. Can he get her to trust him? Fall in Love with him? Or
perhaps maybe, her memories will return. One thing is for sure, she is his. He’s
waited 10 years, little wolf.
“I own you, little
wolf. Never forget it.”
Maggie is caught between what she remembers and what she’s
being told. How could he not tell her that they had a past! He wants her to
mate with him. Maggie is having no parts of the mating but she can’t fight the
feelings of lust and maybe a little something else. Terrent has to step up to
plate immediately, protecting Maggie. Her pack has found out she was alive. They
want her. The Raze pack, who they are currently staying with is unsettled, a
new alpha is about to take over. As things get hot and heavy between Maggie and
Terrent Maggie begins to feel her love for Terrent. She wonders if she really
needs her memories to create a future. Create a family?Find a pack?
“Yeah. On some level,
she remembered him. He’d been right. She’d loved him. Hell, maybe she still
did. Seeing him taking down three wolves heated the blood in her veins. As an
animal shifter, he was all alpha. The perfect mate to protect the children she
wanted to have. Someday.”
It’s a short story but it packs a punch. We experience the
intense lust between the two wolves and his dominate nature. Her sassiness
antagonizing his in charge nature. Who doesn’t love an alpha male? One word –
HOT. I definitely love seeing them
challenged. All that mixed together and it lead to some steamy moments.Oh, Yeah.
“Air swept against her
as they maneuvered to the rear of the cabin. The scent of Scotch, musk and male
filled her senses. Her butt slapped the hardwood desk in his study. Then he was
on her. Hands in her hair, mouth taking hers……..”
Let’s not forget some
kick assfighting and you have a sexy, action adventure. I loved
this story. Terrent has always been a character that struck my curiosity.
And poor Maggie, had no clue who she is or where she was from. In this story we
find closure for them. I’m happy they got a story. Every book in this series is
so well written and integrated with the others, you really feel that you are
always in touch with all the characters, forming a bond with the Realm.I highly
recommend this series if you love alphas and the paranormal genre. I give this book 4.5 novella stars.I’ll be waiting not so
patiently for Jase’s story. Squeee!
