Book excerpt: This bundle contains books 7 - 9 of the Shifter Squad Next Gen series. Prince’s Bride: Brynn Bailey is unique even for a member of the Shifter Squad. She’s half lamia and half shifter and she thought she would never find anyone like herself. That all changed when Prince Gedniah was drawn to her world. He doesn’t have a fully human form, but he and his clan are eerily similar to lamias. A month has passed since the snake-people arrived and now the prince has asked to see her. Brynn is cautious and is aware that he cast a mysterious spell on her when they first met. Despite her trepidation, she agrees to see him. She’s never met anyone like him before and feels irresistibly drawn to him. Gedniah’s people are in trouble and he needs her help to save them. Brynn is torn when she finds out exactly what he wants from her. She’s the only one who can prevent his clan from dying, but agreeing to his plan could cost her more than she’s willing to give up. Mystical Schemes: With so many strong personalities living in one building, tensions are bound to flare up sometimes. When Sydney pushes Crowmon too far, they learn that it’s a very bad idea to mock a god. Their trivial arguments turn nasty and he casts a spell that will result in more than just bruised egos. During one of their missions, the squad faces a target that’s far too strong and well-armored for them to take down. They will need to rely on Alex to raise something strong enough to defeat it. Agent Steel and his wife have temporarily joined the team during this job. As tests go, this one is a doozy. Alex comes face to face with Irene Dawson again and an unexpected ally comes to her aid. Everyone has a breaking point and each new trauma is pushing Alex closer to hers. Seeing her friends finding their mates and being so happy can only add to her growing misery. Twins’ Bond: Nick has always been in his big brother’s shadow and never quite felt like he measured up to Liam. When their little sister comes home traumatized from her latest abduction, Nick takes matters into his own hands. He decides to go on a hunt alone to ensure Alex won’t have to face fear like that again. Liam has always been the dominant twin and the leader of the younger generation of the Shifter Squad. His shoulders are weighed down by the responsibility Agent Steel has given him. Even with all of his skills and training, he can’t always keep his team safe. Sometimes, he feels like a failure and that he’ll never be good enough. Both twins go off alone during their short break from missions, but their vacations are anything but peaceful. They’ll be forced to confront their own issues that neither of them wanted dragged out into the light. It will either break them, or make them strong enough to face the ordeal they sense is coming.
