So Such
Thing as Can't
Castle
Wolves Series Book 1
By Melissa Kendall
Genre: Paranormal Erotic Romance
Cover Designer: Tibbs Design
After a string
of failed relationships, thirty-five-year-old Madeline Majors worries her life
will never be complete. Her obsession with having a child and her inability to
conceive even though a multitude of doctors have said there is nothing
medically wrong with her drives her to Madame Evangeline as her last resort.
Garth Summers is
a shape shifter with a problem. As Alpha of his pack, he must have an heir by
the time he is fifty years of age or a new alpha is chosen from the eligible
males in the pack. But as a wolf shifter, he can only conceive with his mate
who he has yet to find. With only six weeks remaining, he turns to Madame Eve
for help.
Can a one-night
stand bring two people the one thing they most desperately want, or will the
reality of what they are send them both running?
“I don’t care
what it is. I just want you,” Maddy said.
“I think you’ll
care about this,” Garth replied, certain of it. Her whole world was about to be
turned on its head. He opened his mouth, but a knock at the door stopped him.
“Shit, dessert. Hang on a sec. I’ll be right back.”
He put his pants
back on and winced as he tried to get his fly done up. Even with everything
else going on, he remained rock hard. He strode to the door and pulled it open
without even looking. The man filling the doorway had him wishing he’d taken
the extra few seconds to check.
“What the fuck
are you doing here, William?” Garth asked, his voice close to a growl.
Before he could
stop him, William crossed the threshold into the suite. “Now, now, cousin. Is
that any way to talk to family?”
Garth moved to
put himself between Madeline and William. His cousin’s glee meant something bad
was about to happen. “I’ll ask you one more time. What are you doing here?”
“Well, word of
your little tryst reached me, and I thought I’d better come and see how things
were going.” William finished with a wink, and Garth’s wolf pushed for control,
wanting to knock the irritating smirk off his face.
“None of your
fucking business. Now, get out, before I have you removed.”
“Not a chance,
cuz. I have worked too hard for you to ruin my plans at this late stage.”
William stepped forward until there were only inches between them. William
didn’t scare him with his intimidation tactics. He could take his cousin in a
fight, and William knew it. Also, if he moved back any farther, William would
able to see Madeline, something not happening if Garth could avoid it.
He held his
stoic expression and his ground, and, slowly, his cousin’s smile disappeared.
Garth suspected William wanted him to ask about his plan, but he knew his
cousin well enough to know his pride would have him spilling his guts sooner
rather than later.
Neither of those
things would happen if the footsteps he could hear behind him got any closer.
“Madeline,” Garth called out, “please, do not come any closer.”
Before he could
tell her to go and lock herself in the bathroom, his cousin opened his trap.
“Oh no, my dear Madeline, please do come here. I want to meet my cousin’s lady
friend.”
“What’s going
on?” She sounded far too close. A quick glance over his shoulder revealed her
standing a few steps behind him, wearing his shirt. Damn, that’s sexy.
He didn’t have
time right now to do what he wanted to her. He had to figure out what the fuck
William wanted and get him to leave before things turned furry.
