WIP Wednesday: Shifter Hunters in Paris

WIP Wednesday SHP

Shifter Hunters in Paris is a spin-off of Wolves of Paris, Book 2 of the Shifter Hunters Ltd. trilogy. In Wolves of Paris, we meet Lucien’s sister Dany and her boyfriend, Guy, who can barely keep their hands off each other. I thought it might be fun to show you how Dany and Guy met and fell in love, so I wrote a prequel short story (which still doesn’t have a name).

In the nameless short, Dany is a college student and has no intention of going into the family shifter hunting business. Guy, a bear shifter from the southwest of France, goes to business school with Lucien. When they first meet, sparks fly (as shown in Tori’s Teaser Tuesday from 6/26).

But someone is stalking Dany, and she kind of has a boyfriend. So, she has a lot to figure out before she can decide she even wants to get to know Guy.

So that’s what it’s about. The series will be called Shifter Hunters in Paris, but none of the books (or this prequel) have a name. Each book in the series will have some mystery and suspense. Share your ideas in the comments! I might just pick yours (in which case, I’ll acknowledge you in the books you give me the titles for).

Tori’s Teaser Tuesday: A Wolf Hunted

As she approached the salon, a deep, rumbling man’s voice she didn’t recognize emanated from the room. Curious, she entered cautiously, Catherine on her heels.

At the sight of the owner of the deep, rumbling voice, Dany stopped dead and Catherine walked into her.

“Sorry,” Dany mumbled, moving into the room so as not to block her cousin.

In front of her, sitting on the leather couch with her brother, was a huge, muscular man with short dark hair, tan skin, and melty chocolate brown eyes.

He noticed her and stood.

Dany was not a short woman, but this guy towered over her. From his smell, she understood why. He was a bear shifter. The breed of bears known in the Pyrenees region of southwestern France.

Her brother, Lucien, scrambled to a standing position, his gaze darting between Dany and the stranger. “Oh, Guy, this is my sister, Dany. Dany, this is my friend from university, Guy Elizondo.”

“It’s a pleasure to meet you,” Guy said, leaning down to kiss her cheeks.

The touch of his cheek against hers sent electrical sparks through her body. But why? she wondered. She had Arnaud. She wasn’t looking for something else. She was happy with him, wasn’t she?
