Touch of Fate: A Paranormal Shifter Romance

I love that we will see the next generation—the offspring of those from Wayward Mates and Tangled Vines—but we also get to catch up with the couples from the first two series. The story is told in three parts, New Orleans 2028, New Orleans 2038, and New Orleans 2048.

New Orleans 2028 will celebrate the anniversary of Jean-Michel and Darby, who have been together for a decade. They will be having a masked ball with their closest friends from packs around the world. But, the men also are in council about concerns of a threat.

New Orleans 2038 will have several key Alpha to hunt down Ramon DeMoncada—but one won’t be returning home. Leaving a pack to mourn their Alpha, a Mistress to fight off the Ruling Council, and a young son to try and step into his father’s shoes. Secrets come to light, and instead of mourning—celebration?

“I never lost my faith or trust in you. Not from the moment you claimed me as yours. I love you now as I did before and as I always will. You are my fated mate.”

New Orleans 2048 brings a new celebration as the next generations have matured. Several will be fated mates—and maybe it is time for them to speak their vows. Childhood thoughts are not the same as mature adults. Will Jean-Edouard finally acknowledge Brianna?

“I worry about filling my father’s footsteps when he really is gone.”
“The best way to do that is to walk your own path. You worry about not being the swashbuckling alpha that your father is, but he belongs to a different time and a different era. Your journey is not his, but my father always says an alpha is only as strong as his mate. I’m quiet, Jean-Edouard, not weak—much like my fated mate.”

“I will speak to your father?” she nodded her consent. “I don’t want him to think I’m taking advantage of your innocence.”
“My father is pragmatic. Both he and my mother made sure I know how to take care of myself, and my mother ensured I learned about life and love.”
“I think you’re a naughty she-wolf, and it was high time you were brought to heel.”

“Be warned, my mate, I won’t allow you to forget which of us will be alpha and which will be mistress. You are mine and I will cherish you above all things, but I won’t be your tame pet wolf. I may not outwardly display my passion like my father and my brothers, but as they say, still waters run deep, and you’ll know my full depth.”
