A Good Wolf is Hard to Find is OUT!

A GOOD WOLF IS HARD TO FIND–Roxie Wolff’s story coming in March 5, 2024

Agent Dylan Powers tracks the bad guys right to Roxie Wolff’s ski lodge and finds love where he least expected…

Fish and Wildlife Service agent Dylan Powers is on a mission in Silver Town to catch four men hunting illegally and put them behind bars. With his heightened wolf senses, he’s right on their trail, but the hunters know he’s coming. Suddenly, Dylan finds himself in deep trouble, nearly drowned and left to die, until he’s rescued by a beautiful she-wolf.

When local ski lodge owner Roxie Wolff first found Dylan, her curiosity got the better of her. Who was this handsome wolf and how did he end up in such dire straits? Things start to heat up between Roxie and Dylan as she takes him into her home to help him recover. But with the hunters still on the run, all of Silver Town is at risk, and Roxie and Dylan team up with the Silver Town sheriff’s department to take them down before anyone else gets hurt.

Excerpt from A Good Wolf is Hard to Find by Terry Spear:

When she arrived at the Silver Town Medical Clinic, the office manager, Carmela Hoffman, was on duty. “Hey, Roxie. Thank you for saving that man,” she said. News traveled fast around there.

“He was bleeding. How was he hurt?”

“He was hit on the side of the head.”

“Next to the swimming pool?” She thought he might have hit his head when he fell into the pool.

“CJ is getting the security tapes from Eliza to see if it happened at the lodge or if he was dragged from somewhere else. But the injured man is a tall guy, so I can’t imagine he would have been carried from somewhere else and then dumped there. Peter said it was more likely that he was attacked at the pool and then left to drown, if the blow to his head hadn’t been enough.”

“Oh God, that’s awful. He didn’t tell Peter anything yet?”

“The victim has a mild concussion. He can’t remember what had happened to him. Tom is pulling guard duty to make sure he’s protected in the event this was a case of attempted murder.”

“Oh, sure. Good idea. The man’s name?”

“Dylan Powers. He’s a special agent with the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service. His driver’s license and badge were on him.”

“Oh, a special agent.” That made Roxie think he was on a job and someone he was after had done this to him. “Can I see him?”

“He’s asleep. If you’d like, you can sit with him. He’s in Room 3.”

“All right. Thanks.” Roxie really wanted to ask him what had happened. But she also wanted to let him know who she was and that she was there for him since he didn’t have any family or friends here that she knew of.

She walked down the hall to where Tom Silver was sitting at the door on guard duty. He was Darien Silver’s triplet brother and third in command of the pack. Darien and his mate, Lelandi, were their pack leaders. “He’s asleep.”

“That’s what Carmela said. I still would like to sit with him for a while.”

“You’re welcome to.”

“Thanks.” She knocked on the door to the room where Dylan was staying. She hoped he wouldn’t mind that she had come to sit with him. He didn’t respond, so she opened the door and peered in. He was sound asleep. At least his cheeks and lips were a normal color—no longer gray skin and blue lips. She was glad for that.

She went inside, closed the door, and sat down on one of the comfortable blue visitors’ chairs, ready to get some answers from him once he woke.

***

Dylan’s head felt like it was splitting in two. He reached up to touch it and found it was wrapped in a bandage. How did he get here? What had happened? He could smell the antiseptics and something else. A female wolf and he recognized her scent. He realized he smelled of chlorine and…dog? He turned to look in the direction of the window, and there she was—a pretty woman with shoulder-length silky dark hair, sound asleep in the chair near the bed. He raised his brow. He vaguely remembered seeing her worried brown eyes when she was standing over him and while others came to help him. He was in a hospital room.

Then it all came flooding back to him. Tracking Jim Johnson, losing his tracks, seeing Jim’s reflection and his own in the pool before Jim struck him on the side of the head with the butt of his rifle. Dylan didn’t remember anything after that, except when he had looked into the woman’s beautiful, caring eyes.

Had she been part of a security detail at the ski lodge? Hopefully, they had caught the bastard striking him on video. Maybe Dylan could get him on more than just killing an elk this time. Jim wouldn’t get away with it. Attempted murder? Dylan didn’t think Jim could explain that away easily this time. Dylan sure hoped he could nail him. With any luck, he hoped the law enforcement personnel here had caught the bastard already.—Copyright © 2024 by Terry Spear

Silver Town, Colorado in the story, run by the Silver wolf pack is based on Silverton and Telluride and a little of Breckinridge, Colorado–the old west feel of the towns, perfect for the Silver wolves. At one of the hotels we stayed at there, they had an indoor/outdoor pool where you could swim outside where it was snowy and cold and the pool was steamy and warm and I based the Wolff family’s ski lodge on that.

Hope you enjoy this latest saga in the Silver Town and Wolff family’s adventure!

Her Wolf for the Holidays is Out!

It helps when you’re writing a story to draw on real kinds of situations to create fiction. So in this case, I wanted to write about Highland werewolves that aren’t good neighbors. And then there’s also the issue of a will. And that can lead to contention! So mixing real life situations with fantasy can be all the more fun!

Hope you enjoy the new Highland wolf book!

Her Wolf for the Holidays

Oct 10, 2023

Thrilling adventure and sexy holiday fun in the Scottish Highlands. 

When a new she-wolf moves in next door, only one alpha wolf can give her everything she wants for Christmas and more.

Edeen Campbell has heard many wild stories about the MacQuarrie clan living in the castle closest to her new home. She is determined―not even Lachlan MacQuarrie, the pack leader’s brother, can ruin her holiday plans, no matter how hard he may try or how intrigued she is by him. But as Lachlan proves to her over and over that he is a wolf to be trusted, Edeen begins to change her mind about the pack and the very handsome wolf dedicated to making her first Highland Christmas a special one.

Tropical Milkweed Can Be Bad for Monarchs

This is tropical milkweed. The problem? The Monarch caterpillars ONLY eat off milkweed. The problem with tropical milkweed? It lasts and lasts and lasts, sometimes through mild winters, which means the butterflies lay their eggs too late here and don’t fly south early enough.

I know, because I’ve had them emerge when it’s too cold and they don’t survive. But I didn’t know there was another variety.

So I’ve been pulling up all my tropical milkweed, and I need to get a variety that isn’t tropical. Tropical, apparently, have multi-colored flowers like these. The other variety doesn’t. So I’m off on a search for a different milkweed to help sustain the monarchs.

In the meantime, I’ve got to get back to writing. I promised my granddaughter that I’d come and have lunch with her. She wants me to get the clown food, ie, Jack-in-the-Box chicken nuggets, but don’t forget the french fries. She reminded her mom not to pack her lunch for today. Last week was the first week we ate together. I loved it. She loved it.

When my kids went to public school, they didn’t have family visitation like this. It’s really nice.

AND we made some progress on reading!!!! I actually got one of the Dick and Jane books out for her and though the first few stories are super simple, those are words she needs to learn, so she was thrilled to finally be able read them, instead of just flash cards!!!

Okay, really off to work.

Have a super fun day!

Terry

Angel Fae is Out! Dawn of the Jaguar Coming Tuesday!

Hawk fae Ariana is a guard for the royal family, a highly coveted position, and one she has worked hard at, but on one trip to the human world to have fun in the sun with her friend, she makes the mistake of saving a couple of children from drowning in the Gulf of Mexico. Now she’s living in a new world with the Angel Corp in the angel realm of existence, and she’s required to save both humans and fae alike. Before she has gotten her feet wet on the easier assignments, she’s stuck with the really dangerous stuff. But she can’t die, can she? She has already done that once. But she wants to return to the fae world—the living fae world—in any way that she can.

Malik was supposed to have been Ariana’s guardian angel but when he saw another human struggling in the riptide, he went to save him, thinking that Ariana was going to be just fine. Now he is her mentor in the Angel Corp, when he’d always wanted to get to know her better while they’d both been of the fae world. This situation of her wanting to return as a fae is a deadly business. But if she manages to do so safely, she’ll leave him behind. Now she’s working on all dangerous missions and he’s afraid he’ll lose her for good. Still, helping her to return to the fae world of the living isn’t in the plans.

I’ve had so much fun writing about the fae so I’m glad to finally have this one ready for everyone who is following the mischievous fae in The World of Fae series. I also finished final print proofreading of Dawn of the Jaguar and so it’s ready for preorders. It’s coming out on Tuesday, November 30th!

Erin Chambers is leaving the FBI to join her father in his Big Cat Investigative Agency. She loved her job, but she wants to be closer to her father and have more freedom to run as a jaguar shifter when she can. But she knows dealing with her dad’s sole private investigator, Jason Biggerstaff, is going to take some work. He’s a hot jaguar and turns up the heat whenever he’s around her without any effort at all, to her consternation. But he’s not fond of the FBI, and she and he butt heads all the time. He’s been like a son to her father, so she knows he was thinking he could take over the business one day. That’s not happening.

Jason Biggerstaff is busy with investigations, not thrilled that Erin is joining the agency, but all that changes when they are embroiled in missing kids’ cases, their usual run-of-the-mill investigations, and she’s really good at her job. No matter how much he fights the attraction he has for her, it’s a losing battle. What starts out as just them handling their usual cases, turns into something worse—a snow leopard shifter in trouble and they must save him without landing themselves in a worse mess than they already are, which includes dealing with this growing need to take their relationship to something they never bargained for.

Jingle Bell Wolf is Out Today! Howoo!

Jingle Bell Wolf (Wolff Brothers Book 2) by [Terry Spear]

https://www.amazon.com/Jingle-Bell-Wolf-Wolff-Brothers-ebook/dp/B08T4JP6RCUSA

Today bestselling author Terry Spear brings you the wolf shifters you’ve been wishing of for Christmas in this action-packed paranormal holiday romance!

We are back to the Wolff Brothers of Silver Town!


It’s almost Christmas, and Florida gray wolf shifter and veterinarian Gabrielle Lowe has been talked into going with her friends to a ski resort in Silver Town, Colorado. But when her two jaguar girlfriends are held up on a mission, it not only leaves Gabrielle alone for the holidays, but also out of her element at the snowy resort. Determined to make the best of it, Gabrielle takes a dip in the lodge’s heated pool—after it’s closed, of course…

Gray wolf shifter Landon Wolff is part owner of the ski lodge and he’s got enough on his plate getting ready for the annual influx of Christmas visitors. The last thing he needs is a rebel, indulging in a midnight swim long after the pool is closed. Just as he’s about to throw the rule breaker out of the pool he realizes that Gabby is also a wolf. Suddenly, all the rules change… Maybe Landon will finally find the wolf he’s always wanted to share the holidays with.
