"Romance in Nazi Occupied France"
Alexia Pane, an American in Paris, has narrowly escaped
being captured by the Nazi's. She is rescued by a pact of
Shunu, shapechangers that can transform into wolves. The
pack is rescuing as many people from the Nazi's as they can
and the pack's Alpha, Engel VanWolf is working undercover
as a Nazi Regiment Leader. Soon after Alexia is rescued,
the pack sends her to warn VanWolf that he has been
exposed, and they both must run for their lives. During
their run, both Alexia and VanWolf begin to develop
feelings for each other. VanWolf, still haunted by the loss
of several members of his pack, finds himself unwillingly
drawn to Alexia, while Alexia, having her own problems with
being able to sense other's emotions, tries not to fall for
VanWolf. To make matters worse, the Nazi's had a reason for
going after Alexia, and VanWolf and the pack must protect
her in order to keep her out of their hands; because if she
is captured, the Nazi's have a strong chance of winning the
war. This is a short novel but it is AMAZING! This was the first
book I read from a.c Mason, and just reading this story
makes me want to find everything else this author wrote and
read it. I loved all the characters and the story was so
emotional, I actually started to cry a little at some
parts. Alexia is a beautiful, strong character (even though
she needs some rescuing, she is not a wilting damsel in
distress) and VanWolf is the perfect tortured hero. This is
the first in the Wolf-Spirit series, and I can't wait to
read more. There are some minor characters mentioned that I
would love to see what happens to them.

| SUMMARY |
|
Will her love break through his armor so he can be whole again? In June of 1940, Nazis march into Paris, France. Brutality haunts the streets. Engel VanWolf, the Alpha of a Shunu pack - immortals, who shift into wolf-spirit - has a painful past and the patch on his eyes serves as a reminder of human cruelty. No stranger to injustice, he poses as a Nazi officer to smuggle Jewish orphans from the city. Drawn to a seductive fragrance, chocolate skin, and velvet voice, VanWolf comes upon a human beauty, Alexia, in danger. A hunger long forgotten burns anew inside him. Alexia Pane is taken in by the shunu pack, and finds communal living isn’t the only thing they share. When danger comes knocking, she’s sent to warn VanWolf, who has been discovered but needs rescuing of her own. As he whisks her to safety, he awakens her dormant passion. It’s not the flames of the city she fears, but the fire he invokes inside her. The closer she gets, the more he pushes her away. And then, she falls into enemy hands. Can VanWolf save the woman he loves from a ruthless enemy and mend the pain he has caused? Warning; This book contains a hot Alpha with an eye patch. A chocolate damsel in need of saving. A pack that shares more than communal living. F/M/F/M. A pack with no lack of hot betas to follow.
