Under Construction!! FlyGirl 2.0 is being revised. The youngest -- and only -- daughter of deceased Mob lawyer Edward McIver, rich girl Siobhan McIver has always jumped first and thought about consequences later... until a thoughtless summer fling with an obsessive older man results in a broken arm and a bruised spirit. Determined to get her life on track, Siobhan returns to college with a renewed outlook on her life and goals. After all, there are no mistakes... there are only learning lessons. But when her landlord calls about her unpaid rent... and the power company is about to turn off the lights... and her car is repossessed... she turns to her family and discovers losing her money is just the beginning of a devious plan involving her and billionaire Alexander Livingston. F.B.I. Jason Donnelly made a rookie mistake when he met 19-year-old Siobhan McIver. He was supposed to recruit her as an informant; he wasn't supposed to fall in love. He did the right thing and ended it. Almost ended his career, too. Nearly a year later, Donnelly gets a call asking him to help Siobhan. She's in trouble, he's told. She needs a friend. Never one to walk away from someone needing help, Donnelly runs to her side and finds himself in the middle of a conspiracy involving the FBI, the McIver Group international law firm, and the son of one the country's wealthiest families. Donnelly's used to catching criminals, but helping Siobhan means putting himself in the sights of very dangerous and very power men. And Siobhan, who's trying regain her power, needs to learn that strong people can need help, too. FlyGirl 2.0 is the revised FlyGirl. Cover by Liz Charnes.

The characters are highly complex and they exist in a world that values strength over compassion, only the strong survive. The life inside the pack mimics that of a real wolf pack with a strict hierarchy that is established through fighting and power. It is also comparable to a medieval court, the king holds his divine right to rule and the queen exists solely to please and support the king. Throw in scheming courtiers with the ability to change into wolves with sharp claws and fangs and you have the pack construct. As the characters are basically wolves housed in a human skin and the story is laced with animalistic references and traits displayed by all. We first meet the main characters Meela and Grey it is on a bloody battlefield where they recognize each other as their soul mate, and Grey takes Meela as tribute for his pack's help in her brother's fight. From this point on Meela belongs to Grey, and in this world, a highly spirited female with a propensity for impulsive actions matched to a dog stubborn, self-assured, dominant male is going to cause problems. We follow Meela in her journey to become the pack's Luna, a pack who are even more wolf than the one she comes from, and with a mate who has set the highest standards for her to reach as his Luna(female Alpha) and will accept nothing less than perfection. In the midst of all this and the struggle they face to form a personal and public relationship, there is one incident that will change them both and the fate of the pack completely. From that point on both Meela and Grey are inevitably changed and for them to be together, either one or both needs to change, but when you live in a world where you are taught that weakness is easily exploited and to admit defeat can potentially lead to your destruction.

This time around the story concentrates on Fin and Victoria and their ill-fated mate pairing. Unaware of Fin, Victoria suffering under a father who hates her very existence and starved of affection, Victoria has a dalliance with another male and Fin discovers this. The male in question was his twin brother Grey. This led to Fin abandoning his pack, rejecting Victoria and embarking on a path designed to punish her by sleeping carelessly with as many females as possible. Events in Grey's Tribute have brought them together, and Fin claims Victoria as his mate while still hating the very essence of her being. However, the Moon will have her way, and she wants these two together whether they will it or not. Victoria is forced to confront every demon she buried deep down in her fight for survival since birth. The main one being that her wolf is more feral than others, unwilling to bend to any and with a hunger to rule more territory. Her wolf's disrespect to his authority will force Fin to remind her of her place. Fin himself struggles with the past Victoria shares with his twin and the fact that it forced him to denounce his full potential as the most dominant alpha of the four packs around. Her wolf's challenge to his status will push Fin into accepting all that he is and could be, and in turn what they can be together. Unfortunately, his feelings for her are harder to change, and his struggle to forgive and forget will impact heavily upon their relationship. An emerging empire, omens of death and the two most dominant wolves compelled by fate to be together with or without their permission leads to an absolute rollercoaster of a story. I did not think I could feel more than I did reading this book. These characters are complicated and while they project an image of indestructibility to those in their world, reading this will show you that those who appear strong may have the hardest battle against their own weaknesses. Thank you @Chortle for the great summary.

Alice is twenty-four, far old enough to know that a change of scenery can't repair the cracks in a relationship long strained. But when her lover insists on a trip to a remote cabin to get away and recharge, Alice agrees... and discovers that among the beasts of the forest, there is one that shouldn't exist and yet does: a wolf that changes into a man and a man who changes into a wolf. He's savage, suspicious, and feral. And he's as undeniably interested in her as she is in him... Wolf's Wife is an erotic paranormal romance. This is the complete and full version, NOT a sample. It's just very short compared to its sequels.
