Excerpt
“You’re very
big.”
Oh, baby, he
thought, you don’t know the half of it. Her voice was soft and sultry,
something you would hear over the phone if you called a sex line. His cock
stood at attention. Again. If she kept looking at him like that, she’d soon
have a pretty good idea of his size. Her tongue came out to lick her lips and
he thought he just might shoot his load in his pants.
“I, um, Deb,
didn’t say how tall you were.”
His eyes took on
a heavy-lidded look. He needed to hide the effect her voice was having on him.
His pupils had no doubt dilated and the golden color of his bear was shining
through the natural brown color of his eyes. A bear clawing at the surface,
ready to spring into action, ready to mount this woman.
Cherish her.
He felt an
unfamiliar stirring inside that had absolutely nothing to do with sex. Did you
fall in love with your mate the instant you met her?
“And she didn’t
say how small you were.” He grabbed his bear by the throat and yank him back.
He had a suspicion she wouldn’t appreciate being slung over his shoulder and
carried out of the restaurant for a night of hard, rough loving.
Instead, he
needed to get to know her, show her how civilized a bear shifter could be. Then
take her home for a night of hard, rough loving. The bear liked that idea. A
lot.
She snorted
before a smile lit up her whole face and both man and bear basked in the warmth
of her expression. Before, Quinn had considered her pretty, now he could
honestly say she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.
“I’m far from
small.”
“Everyone is
small compared to me.” He held out his hand to help her from the stool and her
delicate hand was lost in his. His mother had once measured his hands with her
dinner plates. His finger-span had easily covered the white china and everyone
had laughed. Bear shifters were supposed to be big.
“Maybe that’s
why Deb thought we would be good together.” Her voice held a hint of emotion he
couldn’t decipher.
“Deb knows I
appreciate a beautiful woman.” He raised her chin with a finger, making sure
she was looking at him before he continued. “Look, I’m a big man. You’re a
curvy woman. I think that makes for a perfect combination.”
“You sure don’t
pull your punches, do you?”
“Why, because I
called you a curvy woman?” If she said one thing about her size, he’d take her
over his knee.
“No, because you
claim you’re a big man.” Her gaze fell to the bulge in his pants, the bulge
she’d put there. Heat blasted him and his heart did a somersault at the spirit
behind another sweet smile.
“I always tell
the truth, baby,” he grinned. Now that he had her talking, she was turning out
to be a little sassy. He liked that. He realized he liked a lot of things about
her. He was hard pressed to pick his favorite. The full, pouty pink lips he’d
love to see wrapped about his cock or the dark green eyes he wanted burning
with passion as he pounded deep inside her. The sultry voice he’d soon have
screaming his name as he licked her slit, making her cream all over his tongue.
Okay. He wanted
this woman. Any other time he’d be cursing the fact that his big sister had
found his mate on the first try and he’d never see the end of her smugness.
Now, he wondered what he needed to buy her as a thank-you gift. And how to
convince Paige to come home with him tonight so he could show her just how big
bear shifters could really get.
Just then, her
stomach growled, making him frown. Provide. Protect. The two instinctual
mandates all male shifters felt for their mates. He needed to feed her. “Let’s
get you fed and then we’ll discuss the particulars.”
Like will I be fucking
you at your place or mine?
Marie Mason loves romance. Writing, reading –it just depends on the time of day which she loves to do most. Having had a mydrid of unsatisfying jobs, and the gnawing, aching need to be a writer, Marie jumped head first into the world romance, without a safety net nor the ability to swim. She still works as a semi-unsatisfying and is just waiting for the day when her husband turns to her and says “Honey, when are you going to quit your job and write full time.”

4 out of 5 stars
Being a fan of anything shifty, of course a book about bear shifters would catch my attention. What I was hoping for from said shifters was some dominance, protectiveness, possessiveness, and a whole lot of sexiness. Quinn certainly does not disappoint.

This was such a fun story.
Quinn, bear shifter, meets his mate and has to convince her that he's
the one for her. The thing is, he's not
very good at it! There were a lot of
missed opportunities and miscommunications, but it all made for a sweet, incredibly
sexy story.
I enjoyed Quinn and Paige and am looking forward to seeing
more from this author, specifically more about twin brothers (swoon!) Ryker and
Ryland.
