Shift Happens by J.C. McKenzie
SHE NEEDS TO CLEAR HER NAME. HE
NEEDS TO CHAPERONE.
CAN THEY KEEP IT PROFESSIONAL?
Andrea McNeilly's job as a government agent is not
asking questions, but then a routine assignment turns into a botched
assassination of a Master Vampire's human servant. Answers become a priority.
Her search to discover the truth is riddled with obstacles, the largest being
an oversized Werewolf who resembles a Norse god. Andy can't afford the distraction
he offers, because if she fails, she faces eternal enslavement.
Wick's job is to monitor Andy, but he prefers more
intimate activities, none of them G-Rated. His choices, however, are often not
his own. His ability to help Andy is limited by his bond to the Master Vampire.
Facing many trials and challenges along her path to redemption, Andy learns the value of her freedom might be set too high.

A large black wolf trotted into the
clearing to confront me. He had a white-tipped snout, white boots and mitts and
would have looked cute had he not been the most intimidating Werewolf I’d ever
seen. Standing tall and solid, power rolled off of his body. His eyes bore into
mine. I sniffed the air. The strong Werewolf scent of rosemary swirled around
me, strong and seductive, laced with sugar. A weird fuzzy sensation spread out
from my chest. Whoa.
Alpha.
My other form growled low, demanding
release, straining against my skin. The energy of the wolves built—layers upon
layers of excitement and impatience. The air pulsated with anticipation. They
could sense the imminent kill.
Let me out! My other form repeated,
throwing her power against my built up walls, howling in defiance.
When the energy of the Werewolves
surged, I finally released her. My wolf form flowed out fast, wiping out the
feline in little more than a heartbeat. Smaller, weaker and the size of a
natural wolf, a Shifter in this form was no match for a Werewolf, especially a
dominant one. I had time to meet the eyes of the Alpha for only an instant
before the pack leapt forward. My limbs shook. It went against every instinct
ingrained within me, but I rolled onto my back—submissive.
