Blurb:
An explosion sends
Ethan running…straight into the arms of his mate.
Ethan White is a
witch whose days are spent in his apothecary with his familiar, Beema. While
making potions for the townsfolk keeps him busy, nothing exciting ever
happens—until one day when a surprise visitor walks in and his world crumbles
around him. Suddenly Ethan and his familiar are on the run, heading for the Fae
to seek sanctuary.
Grayson is an
alpha wolf. His two best friends are his betas, but there’s one thing missing—a
pack. It’s for that very reason that the three of them were volunteered by the
council to act as representatives. Their mission? Try to convince the Fae
Queen
to get the Fae involved in a battle with the Midnight Coven, the witches
suspected of using the dark arts. However, the mission takes a back seat when
Grayson meets his mate for the first time.
With revelations
and lies around every corner and a battle looming, they have to be ready to
fight if they want to have a life together.
When a prophecy
about the Shades of Power comes to light, both sides want the power for the
battle against the other. The question is—who will unite them first?
Excerpt:
“What
are you doing here?” he asked, feeling proud his voice remained level.
“My,
my, is that any way to speak to a customer, Ethan?”
“You
are not a customer, nor will you be a customer. Tell me what you want
and then get the hell out of my shop.”
Ethan
had a second to regret his rudeness when she narrowed her eyes at him, but
reminding himself that nothing good could come of her visit had him standing
there with his head held high.
“I
would watch how you speak to me, Ethan, since we both know who the
stronger witch is.”
“Well,
if you are the stronger witch, then there’s absolutely no reason why you
would be in my shop. Make sure the door doesn’t hit you on the way out.”
Ethan
watched as her eyes narrowed even further, to the point where he wasn’t sure
she could even see him. All the while he waited for her reaction—or rather, the
explosion that was likely coming.
Suddenly
she blinked and then smiled, which was far scarier than anything Ethan could
remember seeing before.
“You’re
right, Ethan, I am the stronger witch, and as such, I have better things
to do than waste my time making potions. So here I am, ready to purchase the
potions I need and help my dear little brother make some money so that he can
survive in this big, bad world we live in.”
Ethan
almost sighed, wanting to forget about being related to the monster in front of
him. No one had believed him when he had accused her of being evil. While
everyone else had seen her as a gifted child, Ethan had seen the dark side of
her early on. Deep down he’d known that she would turn to the dark arts, but
everyone he’d told thought he’d just said that to get attention, even their
parents. When they’d died, it had left a huge hole in his heart, but he’d
finally been able to escape his sister by using some of his inheritance money
to move towns and buy his cabin. Although, he couldn’t really call it escaping
when on her way out one day she’d told him to pack his things and be gone when
she returned. For the first time in his life, he’d obeyed her.
Snapping
back to the present, Ethan tried to focus, knowing that if he didn’t, things
could go badly.
“What
do you want, Des?” he asked.
She
frowned at him for a moment before speaking. “Actually, it’s Ravyn now, Ravyn
Darkh. Maybe you’ve heard of me?”
Oh
shit!

the author:
Beany lives in Western Australia. She
first started reading romance novels in 2008, but it wasn't until January 2010
when her Kindle got delivered that the world of erotic romance opened its doors
to her, and she hasn't looked back.
With suggestions and support from friends,
her muse—“affectionately" known as PITA—was finally able to break free,
and in January 2014 her first story was written. Since she can’t put PITA back
in his box, Beany has decided to give in and team up with him. Together they’ve
made plans to write both MF and MM stories.
