Present Day

Vampire Elise arrives for her estranged father’s funeral and is met by wolves, Ace and Verne.  They are the managers of her father’s successful lumber company.  When they both take up protective stances at the arrival of a vampire, Justus Trenton, Elise has to wonder what is going on.  Trenton insists that Elise honor her dead father’s wishes and sell the company to him immediately.  She had plans to do just that until she finds out that Trenton wants to pave over and develop the beautiful forest that is one of the only green spaces left in the area.  Elise decides to fight to keep her inheritance.  She is already sexually drawn to Ace and Verne, but can she get them to accept the proposition of fighting for the business against the ruthless Trenton?  And will the wolves consider the proposition Elise has for their mutual personal lives as well?

CARNAL INHERITANCE lives up to its title.  Elise is true to her vampire nature and a sexual being, but she is also full of feeling and honor.  She is willing to change her life to protect the natural world.  Ace and Verne are wolves, and while sexual, when they mate it is for life.  They love the land they have worked on for several years.  The feelings they share for Elise are dangerous both to their lives and their hearts.  Can such different beings manage to save all that is important to them and come out unscathed?  Tense, sexy, and green, CARNAL INHERITANCE is sure to please paranormal fans.
