Satisfaction filled the air, and ghostly fingers smoothed over his cheek. Then, the air fell still. She’d gone.
“Goodbye, Mom. Love you.”
Straightening, he turned and paused. K wasn’t standing alone. His brother stood next to him, the pair so alike and yet so different, Sav still struggled to reconcile the fact they were twins. Mel held baby Angel, with Tempest and Barr at her side.
Undaunted, Sav walked toward them. They were his family, his heart would always lie with them, and he’d been a fool to think otherwise. His steps brought him to stand in front of them and he studied K. Sav was done hiding, but he didn’t know about his mate. Would he reject Sav in front of their family?
He didn’t get chance to ask. K stepped forward and slid a hand into his nape. Without speaking, he captured his mouth for a long kiss, then pulled away, his eyes warm with love. Startled, Sav looked around to find smiles.
“Well, finally.” Aaron strode forward to clap him on the back. “Welcome to the family, Trent. Properly this time. Don’t you hurt my brother though, or I’ll have to break your legs. Dig me?”
Sav chuckled then full out laughed when the rest crowded in for a hug. Acceptance and love flowed easily.
“Aaron, I’d even buy you a sledgehammer to do it. Now if you guys don’t mind, I’m taking my man home. We’re still on honeymoon, you know?”
And with a wink, he did exactly that.
~ABOUT THE AUTHOR~
Mina was born and raised in the East Farthing of Middle Earth (otherwise known as the Midlands, England) and spend her childhood learning all the sorts of things generally required of a professional adventurer. Able to ride, box, shoot, make and read maps, make chainmail and use a broadsword (with varying degrees of efficiency) she was disgusted to find that adventuring is not considered a suitable occupation these days.
So, instead of slaying dragons and hunting vampires and the like, Mina spends her days writing about hot shifters, government conspiracies and vampire lords with more than their fair share of RAWR. Turns out wanna-be adventurers have quite the turn of imagination after all...
(But she keeps that sword sharp, just in case the writing career is just a dream and she really *is* an adventurer.)
The boring part: A full time author and cover artist, Mina can usually be found hunched over a keyboard or graphics tablet, frantically trying to get the images and words in her head out and onto the screen before they drive her mad. She’s addicted to coffee and would like to be addicted to chocolate, but unfortunately chocolate dislikes her.

Melody’s Wolf
Melody’s love life is in a bit of a dry spell...for the last two years. Content tracking down archaeological evidence of werewolf packs, she spends her time wearing wellingtons and covered in mud rather than looking for a date. Knowing her worried brother isn’t above arranging a kidnapping to get her to go on a date, she agrees to a match with 1Night Stand, figuring Madame Eve has to be a better matchmaker than her beloved brother.
Money, fame, looks—rock star and werewolf Aaron Rixx has it all, except the one thing that truly matters...love. Yearning for a woman to see him for who he is, he lets Madame Eve make all the arrangements. No matter where he goes, as the lead singer of the world famous band, Lyric Hounds, he’s always recognized...so all he expects is a night of hot sex and a quiet weekend with his music.
He never anticipates Madame Eve might find the one woman on the planet who doesn’t recognise him on sight...or the one he and his wolf identify instantly as their mate. Will one night be enough for him to convince Melody she’s his forever?
Wolf-Bond
Barrett Simmons, head of security for the famous rock band, Lyric Hounds, has managed to avoid the band members’ less-than-subtle matchmaking attempts. Since the woman he loved was killed in action, his heart has been as dry and dusty as the sands she fell on. He doesn’t want to date, in fact he can’t think of anything worse. But he didn’t count on his sister, Melody, making a call to Madame Eve....
A car crash two years ago left werewolf Saxon Reeves with amnesia and nightmares—but the nightmares aren’t of the crash. Instead she dreams of a soldier. A human soldier she can’t get out of her head. When her family pushes her to mate with a wolf from a neighboring pack, she decides to take one night, just for herself, and contacts 1Night Stand.
The last thing she expects when she walks through the door is to come face to face with her soldier.... .
