R.E. Butler's ALPHA'S HEART Blog Tour: Interview, Review & Giveaway

Wilde Creek Series


The Wilde Creek series was created in an attempt to write a darker, more intense werewolf series.  The Wilde Creek Pack is archaic in their beliefs that humans and wolves should not interact, but the alpha’s sister throws a wrench into their lives and changes things forever.  Follow the members of the pack as they navigate this new world, find their mates, and make Wilde Creek their home.

Mate of Her Heart
Wilde Creek, #1

Publication Date:  December 9, 2013
Print Length: 76 pages
ASIN: B00GT25GZC

Werewolf Eveny Moore is coming into her first heat at the age of twenty-five. Bucking tradition, she chooses to go through her first heat alone instead of choosing an unmated male from her pack. There is only one male that she wants in her bed and her life: her best friend, Luke Elrich. But Luke is human and doesn’t understand the consequences of her heat-cycle, so she hides out in a safehouse, planning to ride out the cycle alone and then ask Luke to be her mate.

Luke has loved Eveny forever, but something is going on between them. He’s afraid he’s losing her forever, until she promises to talk to him after her heat-cycle is over. He overhears her brother, the pack alpha, ask another wolf to go to Eveny and take her through the heat-cycle. What her brother doesn’t know is that the male plans to invite some of his friends along. And Eveny is alone in a remote cabin, unprotected. Luke will do anything to keep her safe, even if it means going up against four wolves.

This story contains a meddling brother, a human fighting a pack of male wolves for the only woman he’s ever loved, a female who thought she had a good plan, and bone-melting, skin-tingling hot sex between a male and a female who have loved each other forever.

Alpha wolf Acksel wakes up one morning in the bed of the one human who was kind to him in school. Now, ten years later, Brynn Mara is snuggled up at his side, smelling like passion and sweet dreams. Even though Acksel has declared that his pack members can mate with humans from now on, he knows that any woman he takes as his mate will have a target on her back. Especially if she’s a fragile human. Deciding it’s better to cut things off than string her along when there’s no hope for a relationship, he leaves without a word and ignores her.

But it doesn’t matter if Acksel acknowledges her or not, because their night of passion has left a permanent reminder of what happens when one drunk wolf forgets protection. Angry, banished wolves from his pack discover Brynn’s secret and decide to use her against Acksel. His worst fears have come true, and the only woman who ever touched his heart is now suffering because of his mistake.

This book contains one ticked off, emotionally damaged alpha, the human woman who can tame him, and a sweet little surprise that no one expected.

Excerpt:


Standing slowly, she walked to the door.  “Who is it?” she called loudly.  Her mind raced.  Her dad and Mia both had keys to her place and wouldn’t be banging on the door in the middle of the night.

“Open the door.  I just want to see you.”

No.  Way.

There was no possible way on earth that Acksel Moore was banging on her door at this hour.  Or any hour, for that matter.

She flipped on the switch to turn on the porch light and drew in a deep breath.  The lock clicked as she turned it and pulled the door open.  Standing in the harsh light was the most gorgeous man she’d ever known.  The star of every dirty fantasy she’d ever had.

And he looked like someone had shot his puppy.

His gray eyes were red and he reeked of whiskey.  His strong jaw was covered with stubble as if he hadn’t shaved in days.  He leaned heavily on the door frame.

“I just want someone to care.”  His words were raw, his tone rough and full of despair.


Her heart cracked painfully as he slumped forward, too drunk to stay on his feet.  She managed to ease his fall to the floor so he didn’t get hurt.  Leaning over, she stroked his forehead.  “Oh Acksel, I always cared.”

Interview:

I would like to welcome R.E. Butler and thank her for taking the time for an interview.


If you were stranded on a desert island which of your characters do you want by your side? 

I’d pick Acksel from The Alpha’s Heart.  He’s strong enough to build a shelter, sexy enough to keep the nights entertaining, and as a wolf he can shift and hunt for food, which would be very handy.

If you could be best friends with one of your characters, who would it be?  

Cadence from The Wolf’s Mate series.  She’s sweet, funny, and fiercely protective of those she loves.

What is your favorite book that you wrote?  

The Wolf’s Mate Book Two: Linus & The Angel

How do you overcome writer’s block?  

I usually put the book away and work on something else.  I always have other books that need writing, so putting a troublesome book away for a day or two and switching gears to something else is often enough to unstick me from writer’s block.

What is your typical day like?  

I have two distinct times of day that I work:  one portion of my day begins at 5 a.m., when everyone else is asleep and I can get in almost two solid hours of writing before anyone else gets up.  Then, after I get the kiddos off to school, I brew a fresh cup of coffee, pat my Shih Tzu on the head, and get to work either writing, editing, proofing, or working online (emails, facebook, etc.).  When dinner starts, I’m done working for the day and spend time with my family.


What book are you reading now?
