Roxy Delgado never expected to be stuck back in her small Alaskan hometown, especially not after carving out a promising career as a wildlife photographer for National Geographic. But when a family emergency forces her return, she finds herself sharing a roof once again with the one person she swore to avoid forever—Blake Carver, her arrogant, infuriatingly hot stepbrother and captain of the Anchorage Ice Wolves. Blake has everything: looks, charm, a killer slapshot—and a secret. As the alpha of a hidden wolf shifter pack, he keeps his dual identity on lockdown, especially from outsiders. But Roxy’s return stirs up more than just old resentment. She’s the only one who ever saw through his cocky bravado, and the only woman he's ever wanted but couldn’t have. Old wounds, unresolved tension, and animal instincts clash as Blake and Roxy are forced into close quarters and even closer secrets. When a rival pack threatens Blake’s team and his territory, Roxy’s unique skills—and heart—might be the only thing that can save them all. But will the ice between them melt, or will the fire burn everything down?
Lihat lebih banyakRoxyI have my camera slung around my neck, my faithful friend. I rarely go out without it. Even though I love to take pictures of nature, I do also take pictures of random buildings, people, children and the like. Susan says I ought to put them in a gallery, but for me it’s the pleasure of taking shots.The Ridge woods have always come with superstitions and rumors which I push entirely to the back of my mind. God, who believes such utter crap anyway? Besides, if there is trouble, I can change easily into my wolf form and let Tate out.My face is to the ground not just to make sure I don’t fall down a hole and twist my ankle or trip over something, but because I want to see if I can spot any signs of animal or tracks.It is eerily quiet and I feel the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end. I haven’t felt like this for a long time. Not since I was a child and I got lost in a mall. Stupid thing really since I wanted an ice cream and wandered off even though my momma had told me to
BlakeI swear I heard her say something about wolves in my back yard. What the hell is she talking about? I need to find out what that message was about. Placing my coffee mug down, I head out of the kitchen into our large entrance foyer and up the stairs.In front of her door, I deliberate whether to knock or just go in. It amuses me slightly at the thought of barging in. What if she is undressing? Or in the shower? Fuck I am a sick individual. This is my stepsister I am fawning all over.Yet, I cannot help it. Seeing her dressed in skimpy shorts with those long, slender legs that would look great wrapped around my neck is too much to resist. I wonder what she would do? Maybe throw something at me.Okay, I need to not be a complete and utter douchebag. So, instead I do the gentlemanly thing and knock on the door.“What?” she yells out, I can detect her irritation in her voice.“Can I come in?”“Hell no. Fuck off Blake.”“I want to know what you said in the kitchen about wolves in my
RoxyWaking up, I rub my eyes sore from lack of sleep. Most of the night I tossed and turned since my mind was inundated with images of Blake half naked which did nothing but make my core tight and wetness creep between my legs.I flatly willed myself not to touch myself or get my vibrator out. God, could you imagine me getting myself off over my stepbrother?It’s time to get up as I look at my mobile and see it is already eight in the morning. Shit, I never lay in bed this late. Usually, I am an early riser up at around five, out for a run by half past. The flight and travel on top of the bad sleep have taken their toll on me.Downstairs everything is quiet. I remember now my mother telling me when I finally caught up with her yesterday evening, that she has a checkup for her mammogram today. Nobody is around, it is perfectly silent. The coffee maker has been put on. I check the cupboards to find a mug and fine them to the left. From the cupboard I grab a mug that has cute cats on it
BlakeWell, well, well. Who’d have known that my little stepsister would grow into such a gorgeous woman. All that red flaming hair I’d like to fist and pull back to press her bee lips onto mine. Curves that go on for days and legs to her neck. Damn, she is hot. Those emerald eyes make me want to melt and fall to my knees.I need to remind myself that I do not even like my stepsister. My father marrying her mother and having to share his attention with them was not ideal. Still, I must not complain he has been a good father and come to all my hockey games when he can. Naturally, since he is a billionaire, he cannot attend as much as he likes.Then there is the pack business which he intends to hand over to me in a few years’ time.Her sassy attitude makes my dick go almost hard as I watch her ass swaying from left to right as she ascends the staircase. “You better not be checking my ass out, dipshit,” she says snarling at me. Her eyes narrowing to green slits.“Hey,” I reply holding m
Roxy Jeez-us it’s absolutely freezing as I step down from the aircraft that has brought me into Anchorage from my home in sunny California. My battered suitcase has seen better days, as I haul it finally from inside the terminal off the carousel.My stomach is in knots from the mere fact that I have to return home after a few years away. I feel irritated, bitter and vulnerable as I step back onto home turf.Three years away, and it still smells like regret and testosterone in this damn place. Returning back to Anchorage is not my choice, however, my mother has just undergone surgery on her gallbladder and asked that I come home to be with her during recovery.What, like her husband, my stepfather and my asshole, womanizing, step brother, Blake couldn’t be there for her? Sorry, that’s rude I know. She is my mother after all and we do love each other. But having to spend any time around my step brother makes me feel like burning the town down.The cab driver nods when I give him the a
