I took a different approach in writing Tieryn's Fury, incorporating a lot of things that worked individually for the other books (as I've learned them from workshops and from trial and error) into a system that I think worked really well for me. I'm super pleased with the final book. I thought I'd share a bit and then an excerpt for you.
A Warning From A Polar Bear Shifter
A.J. let himself back into the cave. As he dropped inside, he suddenly faced a very wary cougar and polar bear, both ready to fight. Both relaxed when they saw it was he. Andie nodded.

Black Orchid Excerpt
A low rumble of murmured voices just outside in the hallway pulled him out his thoughts. He softly shut the fridge door and moved closer to the kitchen doorway.
