Book excerpt: “With honor and faith, we vow to keep safe those in our charge. Our lives for theirs, until our bodies turn to ash and our fire runs cold.” At the hands of their adoptive father, the brothers Wessex have learned combat, stealth, and above all, honor. Together they are an elite, and secret, force of Shifters working for the federal government. The Wyvern Protection Unit is the only one of its kind. They have sworn a duty to protect and serve wherever they are needed. Unrequited love sucks, but what’s a Wyvern to do when his fated mate just isn’t interested? As the liaison between the Department for Paranormal Creatures & Activity and the Wyvern Protection Unit, it’s just not appropriate for Jennifer Dylluan to have the hots for one of her team. Ignoring her baser instincts is harder than it looks, and a girl can only take so much before she cracks. Zircon Wessex had always known she was the one for him. Silently waiting for her to acknowledge their bond has been sheer torture. But he’s a one woman Wyvern, and his heart is set on the unattainable Owl. When a spaceship full of Alien Wyverns lands on Earth, Jennifer is assigned to guard the group of curious Shifters. It wouldn’t be a problem, except most of the newbies are females hunting for mates, and Zircon is currently available. Jealousy has her holding onto her Owl by a thread, but there’s a bigger problem. With dissent among the ranks, Jennifer’s life is threatened, and she needs protection. Who could be a better bodyguard than the male driving her crazy? Zircon and Jennifer soon find themselves in a compromising situation, and the time comes for the Wyvern and Owl Shifter to make a decision. Will Jennifer finally choose love? Find out in Thrilled By Her Protector.
