New Orleans,
Louisiana - Present
Dr. Carly
Chambers is shocked when she’s abducted from the hospital parking
lot by two men while on her way home from work. She is taken to a
house and told to treat a man’s gunshot wound. As she inspects the
wound, Carly is amazed at the animal sounds she hears coming from
one of the men. That amazement quickly turns to disbelief when she
learns the men are shapeshifters.
Antonio
Pantera is the unnamed leader of a pack of outcasts and the owner of
an antique shop. After he’s shot, Carly is brought in to help him.
His body burns to know her better, but he’s reluctant to act upon
his feelings because humans and shapeshifters are not equal.
Shapeshifters are stronger and faster. Without control, a
shapeshifter could seriously injure or kill a human.
When Tony
learns about a shapeshifter in trouble, he hesitantly seeks Carly’s
aid. As she tries to help the imprisoned shifter, Carly is
confronted by Slade, a new enemy of the outcasts. Slade is
determined to unite all shifters under his authority. He believes
that shifters are superior to humans and will stop at nothing to rid
himself of Tony, one of the few staunch human supporters.
CHANGING TIMES
is a hot paranormal romp. While nothing new is brought up in shifter
mythology, the story does a great job with shifters as we know them.
The characters
are engaging and the relationship between Tony and Carly sizzles.
Their reactions to one another and the various situations are
realistic. The secondary characters are well rounded and beg for
their stories to be written.
The story is
erotic, but there is a solid storyline; CHANGING TIMES is not only
about sex. It’s a quick, sexy, story, the perfect accessory to while
away an afternoon.
