Tag: Shades of Pink

I’ve been lucky that my family hasn’t been touched by breast cancer. But, when I was in my 20s, I worked with a remarkable older woman who was a breast cancer survivor. She was sweet, kind, dedicated, and a hard worker. Hildie volunteered at the organization where I worked once a week until the breast cancer returned. She happily stuffed envelopes or collated mailings for us, always with a smile and kind words for all. Her death hit us all hard. At her funeral, her oldest grandchild, a college student, spoke about how wonderful his grandmother was, barely holding himself together. I went through multiple tissues.

So, I dedicate my story, Waking Her Wolf, to Hildie.

You can find this story in the Shades of Pink (Vol 3) anthology, a collection of new short stories by more than 30 Romance authors who want to support breast cancer research. The anthology will only be available during October 2018. If you make a donation, of any amount, you’ll receive the anthology as a thank-you. If you preorder the story this month, you’ll receive download instructions on September 30th.

My story, Waking Her Wolf, is the prequel short story to a new series set in the world of my Shifter Hunters Ltd. trilogy. It introduces new characters and reacquaints readers with some characters from my book, Wolves of Paris. I hope you enjoy it, and I hope you get a sense of relief and accomplishment from supporting this worthy cause.
