Erotic Paranormal Romance

 

Vancouver, Canada – Present day

 

Lee Gibson is a witch who loves the rumble of a motorcycle and a big man between her thighs. She isn’t looking for a relationship, so when she comes across playful werewolf, Jeremy Blake, she takes him up on his offer of a fiery ride in his bed.

 

Jeremy’s life is not receptive to women. It is a male dominated world that doesn't accept women. Jeremy is a demanding and vicious werewolf, something most women can’t cope with. He is just looking for a night of fun with a green-eyed witch but that one night with Lee has him reconsidering his belief in living a solitary life.

 

If you’re looking for a spicy, bed banging, paranormal romp, IN A DARK EMBRACE is the book for you. It’s light and fun and showcases the pitfalls of a new sexual encounter. Ms. Bern doesn’t make the reader think that it’s true love at first glance, but allows the reader to follow the ups and downs of carnal relationships.

 

Jeremy is a possessive wolf, while Lee is the free spirit. She is capable of defending herself from Jeremy and that is essential to the story. Without her strength, there would be no possible future between the two.

 

While I enjoyed IN A DARK EMBRACE, I was a tad bit disappointed that the pack storyline wasn’t explored. I feel like Ms. Bern teased me with ‘what ifs’ instead of following through with that thread of the story.

 

Overall, IN A DARK EMBRACE was an enjoyable and sexy story.
