Blurb for Bear’s Dream (Haven Forest Resort book 1):  

She had every reason to hate him.

Aiden “AJ” Shepherd’s mistake during a Shifter Army Enforcement rescue mission cost Ellie Ortiz’s brother, Marco, his life. Ellie hates AJ with a burning passion until a chance encounter with him on New Year’s Eve reveals he’s not the cold, heartless man she once thought him to be. Her attraction to him takes her by surprise, and she vows to ignore her feelings. When a new job puts her in contact with him every day, the heat building between them threatens to flare out of control. Her resolve to keep the sweet, sexy man in the friend zone is weakening by the day.

He’s convinced she’s his mate, but a secret could ruin everything.

Whether they’re fighting off fanatics who target shifters or working together to get his shifter resort, Haven Forest, ready for the grand opening, AJ can’t get enough of Ellie. Convincing her to give him a chance, more than the one-night-of-fun idea she’s proposed, might be impossible, but he’s fallen too hard for her not to try. During a disastrous assignment with Shifters United, AJ uncovers some information that changes everything. Keeping the secret from Ellie is killing him but he might lose her forever if he tells her the truth.

When Ellie ends up at the heart of a reporter’s plot to prove the existence of shifters, she and AJ must fight their way to freedom. The survival of shifters everywhere depends on it.

Blurb for Wolf’s Challenge (Stranger Creatures book 1)

When Sydney left Seattle two years ago, she was scared, traumatized, and done with men for good. Now she has a good job, a hobby that's fast becoming a second career, and best of all, she's adopted a little girl named Angel. Life is good and Sydney's not about to let charming lawyer Derrick mess that up, no matter how sexy he is, or how sweet he seems. 

Things aren't always as they appear in the town of Great Oaks, Virginia. Derrick isn’t the ladies’ man Sydney thinks he is, but he does have a few secrets, such as his ability to transform into a powerful wolf at will. 

Can Derrick convince Sydney to give him a chance, something more than her elusive maybe? More importantly, should he? He's still trying to forgive himself for being at the wheel during the accident that killed his son. Losing Sydney when she learns the truth might break him, but he's pretty sure not having her in his life would be just as bad.

A troubled woman running from her guilty conscience has Sydney and Derrick in her crosshairs, and she’ll do whatever it takes to win her game. Will Sydney and Derrick survive long enough to be together?

A boss can't date her employee—simple as that. No matter how much Shayla wants to unravel a few of Grant's mysteries and take her friendship with the shy, sarcastic man to the next level, she's determined to keep her fantasies of him to herself. 

After bear shifter Grant lost his girlfriend and three best friends in a fire, he did his best to shut himself off from everyone around him. Falling for Shayla wasn't part of his plan, but after a kiss that leaves them both speechless and hungry for more, Grant can't keep his desire for his boss under wraps any longer. 

When things between the two of them get hotter than he could have imagined, Grant wonders if some of his darker desires will be too much for Shayla or will she embrace the needs he’s kept hidden for so long?

An obnoxious reporter and Shayla's bitter ex have teamed up to chase down conspiracy theories that could destroy Shayla's business and worse, put her life in danger. To find their happily ever after, Shayla and Grant will have to trust in each other and find a way to crush all the obstacles standing in their way.

Friday Sierra Brave is visiting and talking about Who She Was Before #MFRWAuthor #crisis center #teacher #Paranormal #fairy tales

 

1.       What were you before you became an author? Did this influence your choices as a writer?

 

So many things…I’ve worked part-time in a music store. I was a relief counselor for a crisis center and group home while I was in college. I worked as a before-and-after-school care teacher before being hired as the administrator of a satellite college completion program on a military base. I enjoyed working with the adult-student population and helping people finish their Baccalaureate degrees so I continued in the field and even took some graduate courses in Adult Education Administration until my son was born. I decided to stay home with him and later with his sisters. I worked on and off during that time, but since my son was what school systems call twice-exceptional (on the autistic spectrum but also intellectually gifted), I spent a lot of time advocating for him. I started writing about seven years ago.

 

I don’t know if past job experiences have influenced my writing much, but I’m sure my life experiences do. I sometimes use favorite places I’ve been as settings. Even if I fictionalize them, I attempt to recapture the feelings those places gave me. I have taken inspiration from some of the people I’ve worked with when creating some of my characters as well.

 

2.       Are you genre-specific or general? I don’t mean major genres but subdivisions or romance, mystery or paranormal.

 

I don’t have a specific genre though it might have helped my career if I did. My Triple Passion Play series is retro-contemporary menage (spans two decades from when the MCs first become a trouple in their early twenties to when they’re forty-somethings still dealing with the unique challenges of maintaining their relationship while raising a family.

 

I probably lean more toward paranormal, like my Horse Mountain Shifters series which is a mixture of paranormal and contemporary western. The series currently has four books, and I have two more in the planning process right now. My newest series, Fated Fairytales, is a fantasy fiction retelling of some old fairytale favorites with a paranormal/shifter twist and a bit of danger and magic.

 

3.       What is your latest release?

 

Scarlett and the Big Bad is the first book in the Fated Fairytales series. The title probably gives away the Red Riding Hood and The Three Little Pigs connection. The pig-shifters are small supporting characters. The main characters are the “Big Bad Wolf,” werewolf, Monty Blackwolf, and his human, fated mate, Scarlett.

 

4.                                                                                                     What are you working on now?  

I have two things in production right now. The first is Fated Fairytales book two, a reverse harem retelling of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Scarlett and Monty’s romance arc is completed in book one, but the overall arc of a community of shifters battling a dangerous order of magical human traffickers continues as Goldie’s romance begins.

 

My other project is a serialized story I’m writing on the reading app, Radish. Alice in Shifterland is a campy, steamy, and over-the-top fantasy fiction, reverse harem romance about a socialite who chases a were-rabbit into a tear in and space where she finds out who she really is in the course of falling ass-backwards into one crap storm after another. Writing the first season, Down the Rabbit Hole, was a ton of fun and probably what got me started on fairytale retellings. The entire first season is currently free while I’m posting new chapters in season two, Rise of the White Queen, on Tuesdays and Saturdays.

 

5.       Does your reading choices influence your choice of a writing career?

Sure, I loved Charlaine Harris’s Sookie Stackhouse books so she’s probably why I write a lot of paranormal romance and continue to read more. I just finished Howl (Sin City Wolf book 1) by January Bain.

Thanks for asking! I hope everyone will follow me on social media and sign-up for my newsletter.

Saturday's Blurbs featuring Books by C J Matthew #MFRWauthor #paranormal romance #shifters

 Blood Ties

The Santa Barbara Channel holds a closely guarded secret…

She had more than just her mission…

Sy’s rotation on land as a dolphin shifter couldn’t have come at a better time. With her best friend missing and no answers forthcoming, it was time to take matters into her own hands. And with the resources at the Save Blue Water organization, finding her friend would be a whole lot easier. Except …something sinister is going on inside SBW, something deadly, and Sy finds herself at the center of danger.

The last thing he needed was bullets and bombs…

Noah Nelson spent every minute trying to forget the war while fighting his PTSD, but jumping in front of a bullet was second nature. It had nothing to do with the fact the target was the most beautiful woman he’d ever seen. Or that she was naked. But suddenly he’s caught up in her world, protecting her from unforeseen threats, and falling in love … but Sy’s got a secret that may rip them apart. Forever.

Risky Tide

The Santa Barbara Channel holds a closely guarded secret…

They sent her in unprepared…

Katherine expected more than a welcome handshake and a name badge after surviving a shark attack before she arrived at SBW headquarters. But due to the recent violence she is sent along to join the Exchange Team without training to handle the midnight break-ins at an Orlando marine mammal park. Things turn bad when the memory of almost dying in the mouth of a Great White triggers a panic attack, forcing the team leader to suspend the exchange schedule.

He didn’t need an untrained team…

Peal is a SBW Team Leader with more problems than answers. A polluted lagoon, dead dolphins, and two new team members….one, a trigger-happy transfer he doesn’t trust, one, a dark-haired beauty he can’t stop thinking about. And as if that wasn’t enough, the mob doesn’t like Peal staking-out the lagoon they’ve been dumping medical waste in and sends in their hitman to stop the SBW Team.

Time is running out…

If Peal can manage to keep them alive, he still has to convince Katherine they can have more than just one passionate night together. But SBW might have something to say about that as any minute Katherine could be transferred, pulled out of Peal’s life forever.

Lethal Tide

Dolphin Shore Shifters Book 4

The Santa Barbara Channel holds a closely guarded secret…

Dolphin shifter Conley Nash began his second three-year mission armed with a kick-ass agenda and an attitude to match. Since their team leader was killed, the men in SBW field ops have lost their nerve. Determined to restore the hard line, Conley can’t wait to show them how it’s done, facing down a greedy oil company in Long Beach. Until Conley meets his new partner…and finds his powers of persuasion need work.

First-time shifter Betty Brett can’t believe she finally made it into the male-centric field ops team. Since the first female agent was murdered, before Betty goes solo, she’ll spend four months teamed with an experienced operative. But did it have to be Conley? No matter how temptingly handsome he is, Betty refuses to take grief from a trigger-happy male and certainly not one whose knuckles drag the ground.

When the oil company resorts to violence protecting its illegal fracking operation, Conley finds himself out-gunned. Either he and Betty compromise, fast, or they’ll be dead before they can unravel the perplexing feelings they have for each other.
