  Her knees splayed out, Claire was barely able to keep herself on her feet – and then, only because the bears were holding her hands. They lapped at her, they suck, they bit, they fought for her softest, wettest place, and then when she thought she was cascading down, into another climax, Stone laid down in the pile of blankets and eased her down onto his belly.

  “Are you sure?” he asked. “We can go slower if you want.”

  Claire bit her lip and shook her head. As if to try and convince him further, she reached back, grabbed the hilt of his thick cock and led the tip into herself with a whimper. She felt herself stretch around him, every tug and pull of her inner muscles making her soul wrench with gripping pleasure.

  He slid deeper, her body accepting every inch of him, until she felt the heat of his stomach against hers.

  At first she shuddered, held her eyes closed out of fear that if she opened them she’d look scared. The last thing she wanted was to show any fear or anything at all except strength. But when she felt the kiss on the back of her neck and then another on her chest, Claire stopped worrying quite so much.

  “We’ll go as slowly as you need us to,” Fury said, brushing the hair back out of Claire’s eyes. “Or we can stop, or—”

  “You do that and I’ll kill you,” she said with a grin and a smirk. She slid the rest of the way down Stone, inhaling deeply and letting out just a little squeal as he hit the deepest parts of her sex. When her mouth fell open, he caught her with a kiss and cupped her breasts in his hands.

  A second pair of hands first ran through her hair, and then slid slowly down Claire’s back, tickling as they went, teasing her skin to life. She took a breath, held it in until her chest grew tight and then exhaled as one of Fury’s fingers entered her pucker, moving in the same slow circles, relaxing her, opening her for him.

  “Are you sure?” he asked. “We can wait.”

  “I’m done waiting,” Claire said. “I want you to do whatever you want. Hell, I want this, no matter what it is you want. Bite me, scratch me, make me yours.”

  “I’m sure there’s some ritual we’re supposed to go through,” Fury said.

  “Some intricate series of gestures,” Stone added. “But with all these new beginnings, why not make our own?”

  Fury’s fingertips slid against Claire’s soaked sex. She heard a sliding of skin against skin, and when he pushed his tip against her ring, she knew what he’d been doing. Wet with her own juice, Fury was able to squeeze the tip of his cock sweetly into her. She felt his heart throbbing inside her, and as slowly as he tried to go, Claire wanted more.

  “More,” she whispered. “More, slow but... yes, oh my God yes,” she hissed.

  Underneath her, Stone was still. He caressed her sides and her back, kissing her nipple when one of them went close enough to his mouth for a suck.

  The fire in Claire’s belly burned so hot she thought she was seconds from a supernova bursting out of her chest.

  “Get all in me,” she whispered, in between desperate moans. Her breath was hot and hitching in her chest, anticipation giving way to ecstasy. “That’s it, oh yes...”

  Fury’s softest skin finally rested fully on Claire’s sex. The heavy heat of him radiated through her, punctuating each timed stroke with a tremor. Stone thrust into her as Fury pulled back, one after the other – slowly, deeply.

  Those few moments that seemed to stretch into infinity were the closest Claire had ever felt to pure release, to letting go of all her worries, all her cares. In that moment, there wasn’t time for any of that. All she could do was to be... alive.

  “Both,” she said, falling forward on her palms to brace herself. “At the same time, push into me, push deep!”

  Fury, she felt, was starting to tremble inside her. A half-second later, the same swelling tension was coming from both of her bears. The hair on the sides of Claire’s neck was standing up at attention, and she thought, getting a little longer.

  “Again,” she whispered.

  There was a moment’s relaxation before that sweet eruption entered her once more.

  “Again! I can’t take much more, I’m going to... I can feel it...”

  Fury was straining to keep his climax away, she could hear his teeth grinding and feel the tightness of his grip on her sides. Stone’s eyes were closed tight, and his squeezes on her nipples more intense and furious.

  “How... close?” Stone asked through gritted teeth.

  “Can’t stop myself,” Fury groaned. “I can’t... yes!”

  As the tightness running from Claire’s scalp to her knees pulled to an exclamation point, both of her bears – both of her mates – thrust into her at once. She felt them both pulse, and then in one moment of pure bliss, all three bodies trembled.

  She screamed Fury’s name, then she cried for Stone. Both of them held her tight, both emptying every ounce of themselves inside her in a slick, sticky heat that overfilled her and spilled back out onto them. White spots of light flared in Claire’s vision as every nerve in her body fired at once. Every synapse, every neuron, exploded with such brilliance that she swore for just a second, she’d seen the end of the universe.

  When it was all over, Claire collapsed down onto Stone, and Fury onto her. They stayed locked together, them inside her, until the men fell out on their own. Fury rolled off and pulled Claire with him, so that she nestled between both of them.

  Either man turned and kissed her, on either cheek.

  “So this is life, huh?” she asked with her face pointing at the ceiling. The gentle thop-thop of the ceiling fan cooling the sheen of sweat that covered her.

  “We have to help the others,” Stone said. “But there’s time for that.”

  “Right now we have to figure out life,” Fury said. “But to answer your question,” he kissed Claire again, softly. “I think this is life. If you’ll have it, that is.”

  She sensed his grin from the upturn in his voice. Sliding an arm underneath each of her bears, Claire urged them closer until the three of them were in one big, half-furry pile. “Yeah,” she said, kissing Stone and then Fury and closing her eyes with a smile across her face. “Yeah, I think I can live with this.”

  Special Excerpts

  Lion in Wait

  Cassiopeia is lanky, quick-witted, and spent most of her life running from one thing or another. She escaped an overbearing family, and a series of dangerous misadventures, but then landed square in the midst of a traveling carnival. In the gritty, grimy dirt circus, love is the furthest thing from Cass’s mind – she’s much more occupied with avoiding her boss Lyle’s slimy fingers.

  Just about the only things Cass has left are her mind, a few books, and impossibly vivid dreams of a man she’s never met, but who she knows – somehow – is going to find her. And when he does? Well, who knows? But it’s gotta be better than the circus.

  Oh, and then there’s the lion who sleeps in her trailer.

  At first, Lex was impossible to control. He clawed, he snapped, he roared and raged like any lion would, but somehow never hurt anyone, like there was something more to him than caged animal ferocity. He lashed out at everyone except for a certain woman with curly brown hair and a thing for khaki cargo pants.

  No one knew that the REAL Lex – the same man Cass dreamed of for so very long – was hiding beneath the fur and claws. When the lion-shifter lays eyes on the woman he knows he can’t live without, this king of the jungle can’t rest until he’s taken his queen. And when he first reveals the tall, dark and handsome underneath the tail and teeth? Cass isn’t too surprised that the man IN her dreams turned out to be the man OF her dreams.

  Bearly Hanging On

  A Jamesburg Shifters novel

  Jamie Ampton is a sharp-tongued, pointy-toothed, vampy shifter with a penchant for
neatly done-up hair buns and a habit of attracting EXACTLY the wrong sort of guy. Guys with a dash of arrogance, a pinch of cocky swagger turn her head... but when her last one turned out to be more “self-important jackass” and less “gruff and strong and takes what he wants,” it left her cold.

  So to speak.

  Ryan Drake has a dark past and a mysterious present. When he shows up demanding the town alpha do his part to care for Jamesburg’s aging shifters, the first thing Jamie notices is that her heart starts beating a little quicker. The second is a knot in the pit of her stomach. And then, before she can catch her breath, he stares straight into her eyes.

  She’s never been one for the big, loud, muscled-up types, but in the space of two breaths, the elegantly detached Jamie finds herself falling for a bear.

  Little does Jamie know that before he stomped into that courtroom, Ryan decided that nothing was gonna stop him from getting what he wanted. But, once he saw Jamie? Suddenly there were two things that this massive blue-eyed alpha bear were going to have, no matter what it took: help for his friends... and Jamie.

  And Ryan? Ryan is one bear who ALWAYS takes what he wants.

  To Catch a Wolf

  A Jamesburg Shifters novel

  AVAILABLE FOR FREE!

  Sometimes a wolf’s gotta fight and bark and bite.

  But other times, a wolf just needs a mate.

  Erik Danniken is the alpha of Jamesburg, a small town, hidden from the world, and full of all kinds of shifters, and secrets. But underneath it all, he’s just a big, rough, bad-boy of a werewolf with a tattoo that goes all the way up his chest. Oh, and don’t forget his massive, building-shaking motorcycle.

  He’s done his fighting, he’s done his carousing. Now he’s the mayor of Jamesburg, and he’s done looking for a mate... because he found her.

  Sometimes a girl needs romance and wine and sweet kisses.

  Other times, she just needs a job.

  Isabel Taylor was more than a little frustrated when she answered a very vague job ad and moved across the country. Curvy, tough and with more than a little bit of a naughty streak, Izzy couldn’t believe her eyes when she saw that first Jamesburg hedgehog stand up, turn into a man and order a drink.

  She’s found her place, found a life she thought she’d never have, and found the love she’d given up on... the problem is, she and Erik have to keep it a secret from everyone else in town.

  Erik wants to claim her forever, mark Izzy as his honest-to-goodness mate. Izzy wants him to quit being such a coward and just come out and do it, but will a good old-fashioned small town scandal make them keep their love a secret, and in the process, kill it before it can grow?

  Somehow convinced to attend the only cage fight she’s ever seen, Violet has no idea that she’s about to lay eyes on just the bear for her.

  Muscled, inked-up and one of the most dangerous fighters in the world, “Crag” Morgan is the bear of Violet’s dreams.
