Beginnings — J.A. Belfield

Take a trip back in time with these two beautiful novellas about love strong enough to bind for eternity.* INSTINCT Werewolf Sean Holloway treats the village marketplace like a sexual buffet, though his charm does little to win over his latest entrée of choice. Whether because of Jem Stonehouse's unique scent, her headstrong nonchalance, or the fact he is forbidden to see her by his pack's rules, Sean wants her. When Jem is nothing but flippant toward his advances, he pursues her with vigour, stealing moments alone with her without a libido-driven agenda. The new and heady experience for him drives their relationship beyond romantic interest, and straight toward love. That is, until Jem learns the truth about Sean's heritage. Because knowledge of the existence of werewolves leads to only one outcome: death. Will Sean defy his own pack to save the woman he loves? ETERNAL An unmarried woman living in a house of men breeds hearsay and lore. If only the villagers knew the truth. It's not Jem Stonehouse's marital status that brings unwanted strangers to town, however. It's that she is the only female werewolf in existence -- a prize to any pack. Sean Holloway, the love of Jem's life, has gone to great lengths to protect her. As a new attack becomes imminent, Sean realizes he must take greater measures with Jem's safety, or risk losing her forever. His first task must be to marry her, but a force greater than the largest werewolf stands in his way. Her mother. *Formerly published separately as Instinct and Eternal
