Lure of the Fox (Aloha Shifters: Jewels of the Heart Book 6)
Page 21
Ella looked around, biting her lip. She was part of that group in every way — no longer the odd woman out, but a woman standing firmly beside her mate. Her husband. Her hero.
“Pinch me,” she whispered when the pastor started getting to the vows.
Jake grinned and pinched himself instead.
“Do you, Silas Llewellyn…” the pastor began.
Ella substituted Jake’s name, then her own, mostly following along, but drifting away at times. She couldn’t really focus on anything but her mate or how lucky she was. Jake had survived. He was hers. She was his.
Forever, her fox added in a giddy voice.
“To have and to hold…”
Jake squeezed her hand, telegraphing something like, Oh, I’ll hold you all right. For the rest of my life.
“For richer, for poorer…”
She pictured the old blacksmith’s house way out on the edge of Twin Moon Ranch, with its squeaky old windmill and west-facing porch. It had been a nice place to live over the past few months, but it would be even better with Jake there. Watching blazing Arizona sunsets, patrolling the ranch, writing a new chapter of their lives.
“In sickness and health…”
She squeezed Jake’s hand harder. They’d already survived the sickness part, and something told her they had many happy, healthy years ahead.
One of the babies cooed, and she peeked over.
Our mate would make a great dad, her fox sighed.
Ella took a deep breath. Jake would, but man. She would need some time to get her head around that one. Good thing they didn’t have to rush.
“I now pronounce you…”
Ella blinked a few times, trying not to get too far ahead of herself. She nearly missed throwing her flowers on time, so lost was she in Jake’s deep blue eyes.
Everyone cheered, and it felt like they were cheering for her. And in a way, they were. Every couple beamed and clapped and hugged, celebrating the love that was evident all around.
“I love you,” Ella whispered, facing Jake.
He clasped both her hands and drew her in for a deep, lingering kiss.
“Love you too, my mate.” He said it like he’d grown up with the shifter concept of eternal love.
“I get you forever,” she whispered. Did Jake really understand that?
Jake grinned. “Forever is the best part, Kitt.”
He kissed her again, and she lost track of everything but the voice of her fox, murmuring inside.
Forever…and ever…and ever.

Listen to what a few Twin Moon fans have to say about this new series:
This is as HOT as her shifter series. For those who want spicy without paranormal, this is a perfect start. I can’t wait to read more about these characters.
I’m enjoying Anna’s new series just as much as I do her Wolves of Twin Moon Ranch series.
It’s not my normal genre but I do love Anna Lowe’s romance books because of the great way she writes. I am really happy this book was the same great style.
Uncharted is different from Anna’s Wolves of Twin Moon Ranch but I enjoyed the story just as well.
