A Taste of Haven (BBW Paranormal Erotic Romance, Wolf Shifters)
Haven Smith is a shifter who has never shifted. She spends her evenings protecting women and children from the men who would hurt them. She likes her solitary life just fine, until one night she meets a man who changes her world forever. Adam is determined to take Haven to meet the family she doesn't remember and show her that she deserves love--his love.

"Do you always ask strangers to walk you home?" His smile didn't quite reach his eyes. If she wasn't a little tipsy she might have sworn she saw concern burning in his steely gaze. This was preposterous. This man didn't know her at all, but she liked the look of him. She liked the way he looked at her even better. He'd come to her defense last night yet hadn't taken advantage of that fact. Hell, he hadn't even admitted he was there. Truthfully, everything about him was a total turn on, from the top of his light brown hair to the bottom of his shoes.
No one besides Harry and Fatima ever looked after her. She'd forbade Fatima to worry about her and since her friend knew what she was, it was easy enough for her to be more concerned with the females Haven brought into the shelter.
Leaning her chin on her hand, she reached out, touching the soft cotton of his shirt. "Actually I don't. I guess you're just lucky this evening." He didn't respond to her touch, nor was he smiling anymore. "Hey, forget it." Haven hopped off the stool. "If you're not interested I can deal with it."
She beat it out of the bar, her face burning. What the hell was I thinking? The truth was, she'd never propositioned a man before and apparently she sucked at it. She headed out the door but didn't make it two feet before she was caught from behind. She automatically swung her arm up, trying to break contact, but the grip on her remained firm.
Swinging her head around Haven sucked in a breath as she came face to face with Adam. He slowly backed her into a light post. "I never gave you an answer. You can't make that kind of an offer to a man and then disappear into the night."
Haven was momentarily knocked off kilter; she'd been unable to break his hold on her. Her mind was telling her to take a step back but her body was not listening to anything other than the erratic beat of her heart.
Adam's thumb rose and stroked her chin, a small gesture that made her practically pant. Her hands curled around his biceps, squeezing hard. His muscles were rock hard and felt impenetrable. She gave an involuntary shiver when his thumb crossed her bottom lip in a feather-light caress.
"Your eyes are incredible." She totally was out of her element. The deep timbre of his voice slid down her body and made her shiver. Her wolf was whining inside her. It wanted to bed this man in the worst kind of way and was losing patience.
He moved in closer and she met him halfway. His head lowered as he gave her the barest kiss along her lips. In that instant the dam broke and Haven buried her hand in his hair. His mouth came back down and crushed hers. She actually whined when his silky strands tickled her fingers. She gripped his hair tight in her fingers. It was as soft as she'd imagined and felt so good sliding through her hands.
His hands came around to cup her behind; his fingers dug deeply in her rounded ass. His tongue breathed new life into her. It was slick and moist and drew noises from her she'd never known she possessed.
Suddenly he yanked her up by her arms. "Wrap your legs around me and tell me where the hell your place is."
Haven held onto his shoulders and jumped up, her steel-toed boots locked behind his back. "One block south, first building on the right." His lips never left hers as he walked quickly to where she'd directed. His strength bled through her, and he was strong. Haven wasn't a lightweight by any stretch of the imagination but Adam carried her as though she weighed no more than a feather.
"Christ I never would have guessed you tasted this good." His desire whispered along her skin. She was too far gone to pay much attention to anything he said other than the soothing tone of his voice. Instead she bit his lower jaw, eliciting a deep groan and making him break into a near run.
