Whisper - K. O. Newman

. .

Résumé :
You can't shove shifters back into their little box once a woman turns into a raging grizzly in the middle of downtown. The human world was about to be turned upside-down. Whisper never thought her life would be so good. Living with LOKI, safe and sound from the horrors of her childhood and working as a tattoo artist with her best friend and savior Les was a dream come true. But that dream quickly turns into a nightmare when Paradigm stampedes into Ironwood on the back of dragons and monsters. Kidnapped and thrown into a cage in the depths of an underground facility, Whisper has lost hope. With each passing moment she slips further into her mind, letting her animal-Frigga-take charge to keep the fragile human from falling apart. Theron (Scar) Aetos has been hiding in plain sight his entire life. There wasn't ever much choice, when you're the last of your kind. His animal-Scar-was his only companion. He thought all was lost when he was captured by Paradigm, but that all changed as he was tossed into a cell with his fated mate. Except something is very wrong with the mercurial eyed Whisper, and Theron just can't work it out. Putting his trust in her may just be his complete undoing as they are both shoved into the limelight when her grizzly comes tearing out of her skin. Will they be able to escape the sudden celebrity and make space for their mating? Can Whisper come out of her shell and accept the man who claims to love her above all others? And what happens once the lights fade? Can humanity handle the knowledge that their myths and legends have really been lurking in the shadows the entire time?

Biographie:
After growing up in the Midwest, I took flight to New England for University. After graduating with a BA in English Literature from the University of Vermont, I moved back home to be close to family, work at a school during the day, and teaching creative writing at night. I took my first creative writing class while in college, at St. Louis Writer's Workshop, and from there I was hooked. Many years later, I found myself living in a small town in Illinois, and married to a wonderful man. Together we have an amazing young son, who is absolutly the light of my life. I work at a retirement community and write in my spare time....
