Character Interview with Roark Archer

Where are you from?

Hey. I’m from the Lamar Canyon pack in Yellowstone National Park. It’s a cool place for bad boys to play. Me and my best buddy, Jared, used to jump over steaming fumaroles, nearly burning our man parts off. I tipped over a buffalo once. That’s how I lost my claw. Unfortunately, Jared disappeared three years ago. When I find his killer, I’m going to make him pay.

Who is your greatest enemy and why?

Ranchers. They get their rocks off shooting wolves. As a result, my pack is in tatters. What’s left of us are moving to the Black Hills of South Dakota to join the Tao pack. Talk about a sucky situation. How am I supposed to hand over my identity to some new Alpha?

Name one person you trust.

Aunt Lara. She got her own story in Alpha in Disguise, the prequel to Rebel’s Claw. I trust her because she’s family, and if you can’t trust family, who can you trust? She also used to be the Alpha of the Lamar Canyon pack. I think she’s out of her mind for merging the pack with the Tao, but she must know what she’s doing. I just wish she’d stop nagging me so much. Hellhole, South Dakota, gets kind of boring without a little hell-raising.

Do have a love interest?

I wouldn’t call it that. Carrie Myers was just a good lay on a stormy night when I needed shelter. She’s a rancher. No way could I could get involved with one of those.

Do you think you can ever reconcile with the enemy?

Maybe when hell freezes over. Carrie is different from most ranchers I’ve met. She actually installed wolf deterrents on her ranch and seems to be a caring person. She also makes me so hot she has to be my mate. But she knows something about Jared. I can sense it.

Blurb

Roark Archer’s Lamar Canyon Pack in Yellowstone has been decimated by ranchers and hunters. Although the Tao pack in Los Lobos, South Dakota, has offered to assimilate it, he cannot give up his heritage so easily. At least not until he gets revenge against whoever killed his best friend, Jared, three years ago.

Recluse Carrie Myers lives on the Wyoming cattle ranch her late father left her. One fateful night changes her life forever, leaving her questioning her sanity. She knows what she saw…or does she? Regardless, she’ll do anything to protect the awful secret that has haunted her for the past three years.

When fate brings Roark to Carrie’s doorstep, the connection between them is undeniable. Determined to avoid commitment, they agree to give in to their unexplainable attraction for one night. Will hatred consume this hell-raising shifter, or can he learn love and forgiveness in the enemy’s arms?

Excerpt (explicit)

When his fingers tangled on the waistband of her panties, her legs trembled and her cleft burned with need. For the first time, she wished she owned lacy, feminine lingerie instead of boring, practical underwear.

“These are so sexy,” he whispered as if reading her mind. “So perfect on you.”

She gasped when his finger dipped under the white fabric, probing and swirling over swollen flesh. Her head thrashed on the pillow. Surely, she didn’t deserve such pleasure. With each caress, he promised even more. Completely disconnected from reality, she hovered over an abyss.

Don’t let me go.

She craved him every night, to make her forget everything causing her pain. With an instinct of their own, her hips danced as sinuously as a snake’s. His finger slipped inside, thrusting deep. If her pleasure was electricity, he’d light her up for miles.

He grabbed her hand and pressed it to the rock-hard bulge in his jeans. She shied away when he unzipped himself, but he pressed his bare cock into her palm. Lord, she’d never felt anything so hot. So alive. A trail of juice seeped from her core.

“Are you still sure you want to do this?” he whispered in her ear.

Their chests bucked and swelled against each other from their hard breathing. She felt as if she’d run the length of the ranch a hundred times.

“Y-yes, Roark.”

“Then grab my wallet off the nightstand since you’re closer to it.”

Her body tensed. He didn’t plan to pay her like a prostitute, did he? Daddy definitely wouldn’t approve. He wouldn’t look kindly on a one-night stand, either.

“There’s a condom in it,” he added.

When she twisted away from his hot skin, the contrast of the cool air caused her to shiver. Clumsier than ever, she dropped the wallet on the bed. It opened, revealing several pictures in plastic sleeves. She couldn’t resist flipping through them. Did he have a girlfriend? Hopefully not a wife. Hopping cow patties. She hadn’t even thought to ask about that.

Too late to back out now.

The people were all ages and shared a similar look to him, so she assumed they were family. She could hardly concentrate, with him stroking her back and grinding his wonderful hardness against her buttocks.

“You’re taking too damn long,” he muttered against her hair. “I’m about to take you, condom or not.”

“H-hold on a second,” she replied.

When she spotted the last picture, the heat in her body turned to ice. She blinked, hoping she’d seen it wrong, but the image only became clearer. Her mouth dropped open in horror as she stared at the face of a reddish-haired man with a beard. Nausea twisted her gut while a lone coyote howled in the distance. The remembered sensation of mud and blisters floated across her hands….

Oh, dear Lord. It was him! The face of the creature she’d killed.
