Genre: Romance, Werewolf, Crime EXCERPT (FROM BOOK I OF CALI ALPHAS) ------------------- "Dollface," Jenson said playfully, a small smile on his lips. "You're like a ray of sunshine in human form." Her heart raced as he pulled her closer, his embrace warm and comforting. His face nuzzled against her neck, while his strong hands gently held her hips. Their connection was becoming harder to resist. His lighthearted banter, effortless conversations, and subtle gestures were enchanting her. She found herself in a delicate situation. Was he really kissing her neck? Panic set in. It seemed Jenson was losing control, his thoughts clouded, not just about their actions, but also about her and the possible consequences. As she tried to pull away, he drew her in even tighter, not wanting to lose sight of her. The roughness of his beard grazed her skin, and their bodies unintentionally pressed against each other. He locked eyes with her, his expression intense. "Damn it," he sighed, his thumb tracing her neck, a mix of tenderness and longing. "Why are you so incredibly beautiful?" "Joss, I need to..." she started. "Why now?" he whispered, stroking her cheek. There was a sincerity in his touch that belied any pretense. With their true emotions barely concealed by unspoken truths, he hesitated. Why wouldn't he let go? "Stay, please. Just stay here with me for a moment," he pleaded.
