About this ebook

In the vein of Jennifer Ashley’s Shifters Unbound series and Shelly Laurenston’s Pride Stories, Vonnie Davis introduces two wandering souls who discover that true love needs no words in this explosive, fantastical novel.
 
Somehow able to telepathically communicate with animals, Paisley Munro has found meaning in her so-called gifts by working as a veterinary assistant. But while traveling to Scotland for a relative’s funeral, Paisley fears that she really has lost her mind. Out in the highlands, she hears distinctly human thoughts coming from a wild bear. Terrified and desperate, she returns to the lodge and collapses in the powerful arms of its owner, a mysterious man with whom she shares a simmering attraction.
 
Creighton Matheson and his fellow shape-shifters have been roaming this land freely for centuries. Now Paisley may inherit his home, putting his kind in grave danger. His mistrust only deepens when he realizes she can read his mind. Yet he cannot deny that this tantalizing woman makes him burn with desire—and hunger for the prospect of a tender love. Now Creighton must decide which would hurt more: revealing the truth or losing Paisley forever.

Ratings and reviews

True love needs no words in this riveting paranormal romance when animal communicator, Paisley Munro shares a simmering attraction to Creighton Matheson. This fascinating story has lots of intriguing elements and charming characters to keep the reader well entertained. Lots of humor and passion adds spice to the story while the author’s fantastical origin of the Highland bears and the Matheson curse adds lots of depth to the story. Once I started reading, I had to turn every page until I had read every last word, not to mention the sexy highlanders in kilts who shift into bears and I can’t wait to read the next two books in this charming trilogy. 4 ½ STARS See my full review at: The Jeep Diva .com

Good story line. There was a part that made me laugh so hard. It did not take away from story, it added to it. Just wish it had a little part at end to include their future

3.5 stars: Slow start but picks up pace & emotion halfway then finishes well.
