Excerpt from Dreaming of the White Wolf:
***
Candice had been writing for two days’
straight, working on her publisher’s book deadline, when she wrote the end,
smiled, and set the book aside. She would start proofing it tomorrow after
she’d given her brain a break. Now she’d do what she always did when she
finished a book, or reached a good stopping point in one. Clean house. Check
her backlog of emails. Pick up some more groceries. And take a run on the wolf
side.
She finished vacuuming and dusting,
swearing every window must let all the outdoors in, and then started a batch of
gingerbread cookie cutouts to celebrate finishing another book and the
Christmas holiday season. While they were baking, she finally settled down to
check her emails. Fan mail always came first, and one from her website got her
attention right off. She opened it up and read: Hello, I’m Owen Nottingham,
private investigator for White River Investigations, White River Falls, Minnesota
and my client, Strom Hart, hired me to locate you. Your parents, John and
Cynthia Hart, left you an inheritance and you need to see the lawyer about it so
that you can claim it. I need to verify that you are the right woman first. Is
there any way that we can possibly meet and get this taken care of so you can collect
your inheritance? Strom Hart will be the one to receive it by the end of the
month otherwise. His assistant, Jim Winchester, said Mr. Hart is your uncle.”
She reread the message again, not
believing her eyes, tears filling them. She quickly looked at the date of the
message. Two days ago! She knew she shouldn’t have neglected her emails, but
when she was into the story, she couldn’t break away.
She ground her teeth, raised her fingers
to respond, and heard a knocking at her door. No one came here. Never. Ever.
Not even salesmen.
She glanced at her phases-of-the moon
calendar. The waxing gibbous was just beginning. She should be fine. Just to be
on the safe side, in case the person at the door was trouble, she pulled a can
of mace from her desk drawer and headed for the door. She peered through the
peephole. A handsome black-haired man waited at the door, with rugged features and
intense blue eyes. He was dressed in a black suit, a red shirt, and a dark
purple tie covered in red, purple, and gold Christmas balls. She raised her
brows.
“I’m Owen Nottingham,” he said to the door,
holding up his PI license and driver’s license. He couldn’t know that she was
watching him, so he must have hoped she was there, observing him. “I tried
getting hold of you on your contact form on your website about your inheritance.
Your contact form might not be working, so I had to locate you in person.”
So this was the man who had sent the
message. But was he for real? He had to be. He wouldn’t have come all this way
to see her if he wasn’t. But how had he found her?
She opened the door, the bells jingling on
her Christmas wreath, and he glanced down at the can of mace in her hand. He
smiled, his gaze holding hers with such intensity, it was as though he could
see clear through to her soul. “Really, just a PI doing my job.”
A chilly breeze carried his scent to her.
Wolf scent. She felt so lightheaded all at once, she grabbed the door to keep
herself upright, and dropped the can of mace on the tile floor. It clattered,
but she couldn’t reach for it if her life depended on it.
Oh. My. God.
This couldn’t be real. He couldn’t be
real. No wonder he was talking to the door. He must have heard her footfalls as
she’d approached.
He took a deep breath at the same time and
his eyes widened in surprise when he smelled her scent. His hand shot out to grab her arm and steady her. For a
minute, as she tried to control her breathing, her heart rate, neither of which
she could steady. She felt like she was going to pass out.
“Hell, you’re the wolf I saw across the
White River, aren’t you?”
