Hello my darlings! I'm always happy to host my dear friend, Rosanna Leo - who's with us today to talk about her newest installment in her Gemini Island Shifters series. I don't know about you, but I've already reserved my cabin on the Island ... and I might never leave! Take it away, Rosanna!
Thank you to my lovely friend, Parker! I’m
thrilled to join her here again.
I’m here as part of my blog tour for my
newest paranormal romance Predator’s Fire, Gemini Island Shifters 5.
Fans of this series know each of my books
has featured some conflict, usually in the form of family angst and shape
shifter/human trials. Well, for book 5, I decided I wanted to up the ante, so
to speak. Thus far, my peaceful Gemini Island has managed to avoid any threats
to its existence, but there’s a new villain in town, and he has set his sights
on the tranquil shape shifter retreat.
August Crane, my wolf shifter villain,
originated in hero Killian Moon’s tragic past. The leader of a vicious shifter cult,
Crane has long held Killian’s parents under his sway. Like a Charles Manson for
the shifter set, Crane camouflages acts of evil under the auspices of
“religion.” He fancies himself a shifter Messiah and plans to take all worthy
shape shifters with him into his new world order…an order that does not include
humans.
This presents a problem for my human-loving
residents of Gemini Island. And now Killian has a mate in human Nina Suzuki. I
loved throwing this deranged monkey wrench into my hero’s plans. In fact, I
don’t know if any of my heroes has ever suffered quite like Killian does.
And if Killian has his way, he will make
Crane suffer as well.
I hope you get a chance to enjoy Predator’s
Fire and I thank you for reading.

When Nina Suzuki discovers the body of her best friend
Janine, her world turns upside down. Things go from bad to worse when Janine’s
corpse seems to transform into that of a large, brown wolf. For the first time,
Nina is faced to confront all the clues indicating her BFF was not what she
seemed. A letter from the dead woman opens Nina’s eyes to a strange, new world.
The same letter warns of a sinister group called the Alpha Brethren, and urges
her to find Killian Moon of the Ursa Fishing Lodge and Resort on Gemini Island.
Killian Moon is a jaguar shifter and teen mentor at the
Ursa Lodge in Northern Ontario. He may be a comfort and inspiration to confused
teen shifters, but he also has a fiery past. His past comes back to haunt him
when human Nina arrives at the resort, demanding to speak with him. Demanding
answers. Can he trust her with knowledge that will not only change her life,
but possibly endanger those around him?
As Killian begrudgingly tutors Nina on all things shifter,
their mutual curiosity flares into passionate need. Once they touch, once they
succumb to desire, there is no going back. Killian realizes Nina is his mate
and they both begin to comprehend the terror threatening those on their shifter-friendly
island. He is forced to confront the tragedy in his family and determines to
protect Nina at all costs.
But can they protect everyone they love from a cult of
dangerous shifters, intent on horror and destruction?

Excerpt:
“How much longer do I have to wait? I want to see Killian
Moon. Now.”
The feminine voice, strangely soft despite its insistence,
echoed deep in his being, awakening his jaguar. The great cat roared to life,
turned toward the office and inhaled deeply. Its eyes flashed in interest.
In...recognition?
Killian breathed in at the same time, catching the scent
of cherry blossoms through the door. The sweet perfume, mixed with human
outrage, proved a heady distraction, making him forget why he was there.
Shaking his head, he tried to dismiss the odd sensation as Ryland opened the
door.
The door swung open and the first person he glimpsed was
one of the clerks from reception, trying his hardest to placate the unexpected
guest. “I’m sure Mr. Snow and Mr. Moon will be right back.”
And then his gaze landed on the petite human. Tapered
Asian eyes, so dark and mysterious, but rimmed with circles of exhaustion.
Smooth, cinnamon skin hinted at a mixed background. Wearing no makeup, she
appeared younger than she must be, but her presence and keen eyes pegged her at
around thirty years old. She had a riot of curly, black hair and feminine
curves that ought to come with a warning. He could see it now. Beware: this
woman’s body will cause insanity in men. Even as she gesticulated at
the clerk, her boobs jiggled in such a way his throat went dry.
He pictured her in a corset, her breasts spilling over
delicate lace edging, and almost forgot his name.
This Nina Suzuki was damn hot and his jaguar seemed to
agree. The animal licked its lips, its golden gaze assessing and appreciating
every detail, from her rounded hips to her come-hither rack.
Yes, the creature uttered on a frenzied breath.
