Gust Post by Terry Spear, author of Dreaming of the Wolf

How does a wolf seduce his mate? Every wolf is different. Every hero, every heroine. The setting, the circumstances, all will lead to a different form of seduction.

In the beginning, Jake Silver can’t help the way he is drawn to the heroine, Alicia. Maybe it’s her determination to right a wrong, or her tenacity to fight the bad guys when she’s only a woman, and not all that skilled to take down the kind of men she’s after.

Or maybe it’s something deeper that neither of them can explain logically. But when he’s afraid she’s met a deadly end, he’s angry, running hot, and bothered, and damn if he doesn’t want her. Badly. What can I say? He’s totally all alpha sexy male.

A matter of wolf seduction, an excerpt from Dreaming of the Wolf:

“Admit it. Mario and the other man you mentioned, Danny Massaro, murdered your mother. It’s a vendetta,” he said quietly, but the undercurrent of warning was there. What she was doing was wrong, and it could get her killed.

“Not a vendetta,” she said icily. “I don’t plan to gun them down like they did my mother. Just return them to jail where they belong. Permanently.”

She tried to pull her hand free from his, but he wouldn’t let go. With his free hand, he swept the back of his hand down her cheek with a tender caress. “All right, not a vendetta then.” But he still couldn’t see how she planned to safely take these men into custody.

He wasn’t sure just what about her made his pulse race to such an extent, the way the heat of her hand penetrated his, the way he couldn’t put her out of his mind, stirring a need to be with her and to protect her that he was having a hard time quelling. The expression on her face, though rebellious, appealed to him. Hell, everything about her did.

Her short-waisted suit jacket hung open as if she’d been ready to remove it to dress in a more casual manner. But he knew that had all to do with her having easy access to her gun, although the holstered weapon was still hidden. His gaze drifted down to where the ice-white silken blouse revealed the faint outline of her bra and a hint of lace, baring the sexier side of her outfit. Round pearl-button fasteners on her blouse captured his attention, and briefly, he wanted to touch them, to poke one after another through the slivers of their buttonholes, to see the rest of her as nature had intended.

She cleared her throat, and he returned his gaze to her face. A small smile tugged at her lips, and her brows lifted in a way that said she knew exactly where his thoughts had roamed.

Although he wanted this issue between them resolved—wanted her to promise him she wasn’t going any further with this futile effort to take down these men, when her hand rested on his shirt-covered chest, the vest now open and most of his shirt still unbuttoned because of hastily dressing, he thought she was going to push him away. Or at least try.

But her hand swept up his chest as if tentatively feeling the muscles beneath the shirt, memorizing the sen-sation of him, and judging his reaction, while her eyes focused on his chest as she continued to explore. Her touch left a trail of sizzling heat through the cotton shirt and a craving to touch her in the same way, except that he wanted to touch her skin to skin.

He lifted her chin and leaned down and kissed her. Potent need filled him as his mouth conquered hers, possessing and wanting, the worry that she could have come to harm still making his blood pulse hot and hard. His hands slid underneath the back of her jacket, gliding over the silky blouse while her head still tilted up to encourage his onslaught. Instantly responsive, she reacted as though she needed his comfort, his possessiveness, him, as she molded to his body, pressing harder against him, her hands exploring his back through the dress shirt with eagerness.

If they’d been back home in his own woods, away from civilization, free to do what they pleased, he would have liked to take her, conquer her, make love to her. It wasn’t just sex that he was interested in having with

Alicia either, but something deeper. Although he knew he couldn’t go there with her, not when she was human, and he had no intention of turning her.

With his thoughts shifting to his more primal needs, he barely registered that they were still standing on the path where hikers could come upon them at any moment. He wasn’t familiar with these woods or how frequently visitors to the area might slip off the path and do some exploring on their own. Still, he wanted more, wanted her. And his baser, more primitive instinct told him she was just as willing as he was. To go with the moment, to find pleasure where they could.

But was Alicia truly as willing?

Hey, Love Romance Passion wanted an excerpt of a little werewolf seduction, and so I’m not the only tease around!

LOL

Thanks so much for having me here today, and now I’m wondering, would you take Jake up on a walk in the woods? If his intent is a wolfish seduction?

Yum.

DREAMING OF THE WOLF by TERRY SPEAR—IN STORES DECEMBER 2011

A fierce hunter…

Alicia Greiston is a no-nonsense bounty hunter determined to bring a ring of mobsters to justice. Her dogged pursuit of the crime family has forced her to avoid relationships—any man would only become a target for retribution. Luckily, Jake Silver is more than a man, and his instincts are telling him to stop at nothing to protect her.

An animal passion…

However, the mob isn’t entirely human either, and soon Alicia must flee for her life. When Alicia and Jake’s passion begins to spill over into their dreams, Jake learns he will have to do more than defend her—he’ll have to show his mate the way of the wolf.

Terry’s here! Yippeee. :) Love her yummy wolves. If Alicia isn’t willing, there’s plenty of LRP readers who are.
Whoa! How did all these names get on Jake’s list? Lynn, Sharon, someone named Witchy Woman, Sandra, Carla. The list is endless! How much energy do your wolves have, Terry?

Can’t help being seduced by all of that power in a male whose primary goal in life is to cherish you!

A wolf is sleek and strong. So alpha tendencies are a great start! I think the alpha stare is the most important first step!

ohh thats a toughie…i think his best seduction technique would be the protectiveness and willingness to please his female!

It definitely doesn’t sound like Jake needs any pointers. Just his Alpha personality is a total turn-on for me. Love strong, dominant, protective males. :)

Thanks for the giveaway.

I like it when they do that low growl in my ear. Uh…I mean, the heroine’s ear. *blush* That just sends shivers down my spine!

I love your wolves Terry. I am forever grateful to my friends for recommending your books to me! Hope you have a wonderful holiday!

Elf, I agree! Being cherished is a huge plus!

Jen B, yes, absolutely. Because when he gives you that wolf’s stare, there’s intrigue already building. :)

Alaina, yes! Pleasing his woman is a definite turn on!

Barbara, lol, yeah, Jake’s got the moves and he’s just ready to put them to good use!

Marissa, lol, I agree. Growly sounds are nice. :) Especially knowing what’s behind that growling interest! :)

Thanks so much, Teresa! I’m thrilled you’re enjoying them! Merry Christmas!!!
