Charmed by the Werewolf
by Sandra Sookoo
A curse, a quest and keeping the paranormal peace? No problem. All in a day’s work. Sophia
Raines has issues beyond being a near-sighted vegetarian. Bound to a
power-hungry Portal Master for the next ninety years, she longs for
freedom and a halfway normal life. When a sexy, golden-haired werewolf
shows up and kisses her in the street, she panics. A romantic liaison
isn’t in the cards, since she’ll eventually betray him. Nothing
personal, it’s just her job, hormones be damned. Xavier Leighton
is a werewolf on a mission. He wants nothing more than to have the curse
on his person lifted, but he needs to cultivate a friendship with
stubborn, fearful Sophia first. There’s something about the woman he
can’t ignore, and it has more to do than the soul-shattering knowledge
she’s his mate. Too bad she’s resistant to his charms—and his kisses. As
a supernatural bargain is struck, the countdown begins. All they need
to do is find a gypsy, chat with a rifle-wielding mermaid, de-brief a
deadly, dragon lawyer, and outwit a unicorn with Hollywood aspirations.
Easy peasy. Somewhere along the way, Sophia and Xavier might just find
out that opposites do attract… unless the Eight Realms fall into ruin
first. Note: this title was previously published in 2010 as Vegetarian at Midnight but has since been re-edited.
