Perfect for fans of Keri Arthur and
Bella Forrest, this short novel kicks off a sizzling new series in the
award-winning Weird Girls saga as Celia’s sister Taran fights to have it all:
independence, hot romance, and enough firepower to torch an army of
blood-thirsty supernaturals.
Cursed by a spell meant to destroy
them, Taran Wird and her sisters instead developed unique magical talents. With
the power of fire and lightning literally at her fingertips, Taran doesn’t fear
much. Demons, vamps, whatever—bring ’em on! Only one thing terrifies her:
commitment.
Taran is crazy about her boyfriend,
Gemini, a sexy were with the incredible ability to split into two separate
wolves. But after watching her sister go through heartbreak with the pack’s
Alpha, Taran knows not to count on happily ever after—despite Gemini’s desire
to claim her as his mate. Reluctantly, she agrees to meet his very traditional
and conservative parents. Taran’s a badass with a mouth to match, and Gemini
loves her for it. She’s just not positive these attributes will please Mom and
Dad.
Unsurprisingly, every attempt by Taran
to bond with Gemini’s folks proves disastrous. But in the end, Taran finds that
winning them over means unleashing her powers . . . and proving that this
foul-mouthed fire-starter is a force to be reckoned with.

Excerpt
I’d
woken only about an hour ago, Gemini’s warm, naked body curled against mine
firing a need that required some serious quenching. So I buried my face in his
lap to stir him from sleep.
Most
women would have just said good morning, or nudged their partners ever so
lovingly.
But
I wasn’t most women.
Yeah,
and you’re welcome, baby.
Gemini
slowed his deep thrusts, grunting hard as he finished, his face scrunched in
what appeared to be pain. But that wasn’t pain, was it? Nope, not at all. He
was simply reacting to how good it felt to join his body with mine. I nibbled
my way along his neck, leaving marks that faded from one bite to the next until
I reached his earlobe and tugged. “Mornin’, sexy,” I whispered.
He
growled something I didn’t quite understand. I didn’t speak a word of wolf, yet
that deep snarl was as good as the dirty talk we’d exchanged during sex.
I
laughed. Okay, maybe it wasn’t as good as those naughty words. Yet a growl from
a werewolf in his human form was a rare kind of hot few women would know.
I
continued to straddle Gemini as he effortlessly carried us from the center of
the room, where we’d made love standing up, and back to our bed. The gentle way
in which he kissed me was in direct contrast to our wicked sex, and to the male
most saw.
My
lover was the second in command of the Tahoe region’s Squaw Valley Den
Pack—intelligent, fierce, capable of crushing skulls, quietly confident, and
with fighting skills few weres
possessed.
Not
to mention he was hotter than the power I generated with my magic.
All
large anatomical parts and good looks aside, Gemini was . . . kind. When you
trash-talked, and entered a room like you owned it like I did, it attracted a
certain caliber of men. The kind that made me grateful I could protect myself
with fire and lightning.
Men
could be cruel, and dangerous. I knew that better than most. But unlike those
men I’ve known in my past, I trusted Gemini.
