Description

Fantasy. Fiction. Romance. Historical Fiction. HTML: A bootlegger will save her life. A debutante will steal his heart. Building Sanctuary, Book 1 Joan Fuller enjoyed a privileged life�until her wealth and connections garnered her the wrong sort of attention. Her rejection of a textile heir's proposal comes back to bite her when he turns out to be a werewolf on the prowl for a mate. She may have been turned against her will, but now that she's part of his pack she sets out to protect all its women. Even if that means joining forces with a witch and a vampire�and leaving the comfort of Boston. Former bootlegger Seamus Whelan has cleaned up his act, but when his old partner Gavin comes to him for help, he can't say no�no matter how deadly the threat. Escorting some female wolves to safety should have been easy, except their leader is a prim ex-debutante with enough power to challenge Seamus himself. Her courage captures his interest, and her first hesitant kiss ensnares his heart. But before they can build a haven for their kind, they must free themselves of the past�and the powerful man who's out to teach her a lesson she may not survive... Warning: This novella contains a rakish werewolf bootlegger forced to join forces with a teetotaling ex-debutante as they fight epic battles, engage in criminal activities and eventually give in to inappropriate passion on a kitchen counter..… (more)

sweet. Aware of her trust issues with dominant male wolves, he was so patient and attentive with her. He is definitely going on my swoon worthy list. Even with Joan’s innocence and fears the sparks between the two main characters fly. This is good paranormal romance!

I’m a big fan of historical fiction and werewolves. Combining the two was a win with me. I can’t wait to read the next installment of this new series.

I adored the strength shown by both, though especially Joan. As an alpha werewolf, it wasn't easy for her to give up control. I love that she was able to share her strengths and weaknesses with Seamus, and rely on him to share his with her. Too often with a strong female a line is crossed and she's

seen as bitchy and unbending. Not so here.

I wish more details had been given - clothing and vehicle types, etc - to the era. As it was, the story really could have been set anytime. While that isn't always a bad thing, in this case I think it took something away from the story.

I'm anxious to read more about how Sanctuary came to be, and I'm glad to know there will be more to come in the series.
