This is a collection of wild short reads. Each chapter is a saucy, self-contained piece of paranormal romance flash fiction (1000 words or less) ready to be devoured!
Occasionally, I go over that limit if the story warrants it. However, I work hard to wrangle these bolts of inspiration to keep them under the flash fiction umbrella as much as possible.
Some of these stories--like Lonely Kitty--quickly went on to spawn their own longer projects. You can read the full 35K+ novella--Mistletoe for Lonely Kitty--in a PNR charity anthology, CHRISTMAS NIBBLES (link on my profile).
Most of these stories were written as part of the WILD AT HEART - PNR FLASH FICTION writing circle. Each month, we choose a theme, share some inspirational images, then get cracking. These short works are published in our newsletters and in our online readers' groups. Now, I'm bringing my collection together for the first time and publishing it for my Wattpad peeps to enjoy.
Happy reading, fellow book devourers.

P.S. One final note. Some of these stories have steamy content, others focus more on the swoon. In this collection, there will be a mix of romantic fated mate relationships, including MF / MM / MFM / MMF / MFMM and more as new works unfold. R18 readers only please!

AN OFFER SHE CAN'T REFUSE
🐺🐺🐺🐺 **Shifter werewolf RH fantasy romance** BOOK 2 IN THE SHADOW REALM SERIES. Can be read as a standalone The Quads. They were four of the hottest, most cutthroat, ruthless, dangerously mysterious and brooding, hot as fire seductive fraternal quadruplets anyone had ever laid eyes on-especially at Malsum High. Sebastian, Quinn, Xander and Hudson Calhoun... Their money, good looks, and high society privileges gained them notoriety and the finest things in life-and they relished in it. Fast cars, fast money, and fast women were all they could think about until she came along. For a long time, they didn't even think she truly existed. The little lady who had no home-no life, one best friend, forced to work for her aunt and uncle as a servant just to make ends meet--couldn't be the one? Could she? When Sabrina Brewster is kicked out of her family's house right after graduation, the boys are all too eager to take advantage of this little lady-the one they bullied-the one they wanted to ruin--until they discovered her truth. They find her wandering the streets, luggage in hand-her cap and gown still clinging to her soaked body as the rain rushed over her. Getting her in the car and back to their home for a shower and a warm meal was the easy part... Making her theirs even after she discovers all of the secrets the Quads have been keeping? Well, they'd have to make Sabrina an offer she couldn't refuse. 🐺🐺🐺🐺 cover pic by Gayle BerryComplete
Hunted
**COMPLETED*** This is book 2 and can be read as a standalone but I recommend you read "Fated" first. Something caught my eye and when I looked up in the mirror I saw Rykan stepping inside, shutting the door and sliding the lock in place. My heart hammered in my chest as he approached me. He came right up behind me, setting his hands on my hips, never breaking our gaze through the mirror. "Kora," he murmured, stepping closer until my back brushed against his chest. His hand slid down to the end of my skirt and he flattened his palm against my bare leg, sliding his hand up my skirt. "I'm married," I blurted, swallowing hard and trying to ignore how much I liked the way it felt having his hands on me. "Hm," he grunted, narrowing his eyes as he continued his ascension up my outer thigh. His touch sent tingles all over my body, sending heat right between my legs. He gripped my leg and suddenly turned me, his hand now palming my ass as he pulled me against him, his teeth scraping against my neck as his other hand up to my neck. "Didn't seem to bother you when you had me down your throat last night," he said, wrapping his hand around my throat and lifting his head to give me one of those heart-stopping stares. "In fact, I believe you started that, angel." Koralie always felt that there was a part of herself missing. A part she hadn't yet discovered. Stuck in a toxic marriage, she's navigating her way out of it when she meets Rykan, a mysterious stranger she feels an undeniable draw towards although she isn't sure why. Things become even more intense when he starts showing up in her dreams, claiming he is a werewolf and they are mates. An even more unexpected turn of events comes when Kora starts looking into the supernatural world and finds it is not as foreign to her as it should be. Warning: This story contains very mature themes including brief mentions of abuse, mature language, mental health and sexual content.Complete
Hidden
[DISCONTINUED] **MATURE LANGUAGE AND CONTENT** **POSSIBLE TRIGGERS** WATTYS2018 I walk down the staircase, entranced with his sharp, angular features. I notice how his lip curls up at the edge when he sees me. A soft breeze blows his scent across the room, and I can't think. Roses and salty ocean waves fill my nostrils. Add sunlight to the mix- which shouldn't have a smell but Luna, he smells like it- and I'm pretty sure if I could open my mouth, I'd be drooling. 'Mate.' My wolf whispers, giddy. I scramble back up the stairs. ____________________ Opening up when something terrible happens is hard. Near impossible.

A COURT OF SHIFTERS AND SECRETS
Finding out that your parents, the people that raised you your whole life, weren't your actual parents was hard. Being told at the ripe ol' age of eighteen that you're the last living member from an Ancient Shifter line, the one responsible for creating the First Shifters, was inconceivable. Especially when a group of assassins were on their way to exterminate me simply for just existing.

Join Nova Nyx as she's dragged into a world full of Shifters, Secrets, and Startling Surprises. ~~~ "Mates?" I repeated owlishly, blinking rapidly at the one worded bomb they just dropped on me "What are Mates?" Instead of answering my question, they just stared back at me in silence, arms crossed over their broad chests. I ignored their silence, choosing to focus on second part of their sentence. "And you're telling me I have three of them?" I gawked "How many are you supposed to get? I can barely handle myself and my life at this point and you want me to worry about three other people?" Of course the most annoying man I've ever met smirked at my bafflement. "I don't think it'll be such a hardship for you" he said, arrogance lacing his tone "After all, I hear these three Mates of yours are very self-sufficient." "Don't forget extremely gorgeous" his Buffon of a friend chimed in, winking at me "That's a plus for you Princess." "One," the third one growled out at me, finally speaking up and adding subsistence to the conversation, startling the banter from the other two "You're only supposed to be blessed with one Mate in your entire lifetime."Complete
