About this ebook

Cougarville's mechanic, and resident Alpha fox, shelters a mysterious woman who ignites his protective animal instincts when evil forces try to tear them apart.

Jo Ferrell has been cast out of her home for reasons she doesn’t understand. The grey streak in her hair is gone, her body is younger, and there’s an ominous shadow chasing her. With nowhere else to go, Jo finds shelter in a shed whose owner she wants nothing to do with—but he’s too much to resist.

Reese Cooper has never felt a pull towards a woman like he does towards Jo and his Fox is desperate to claim her as their mate. After offering her a place to stay, Reese finds it difficult to resist his beautiful new roommate. But when dark magic threatens their happiness, Reese will use all of his strength to protect the woman he loves...if he’s not too late.

Stone Cold Fox is a fun, sexy, exciting read from Evangeline Anderson that will make readers want to revisit Cougarville again and again.

Ratings and reviews

**Received ARC from NetGalley for a fair and honest review** Stone Cold Fox is the third book in the Cougarville series, it can be read as a standalone, but you would get more from it, if read in order. Jocasta "Jo" Ferrell is a third degree Wiccan living at Avalon for over 20 years when she's accused of practicing dark magic and is cast out. Once out on her own, she has to brave the elements and is chased by a demon into someones shed. Reese Cooper goes into his shed while home for lunch and what does he find but a young girl in the corner and she's not too thrilled to see him to say the least. So this book is pretty dark, there are strong theme's that may not be for all readers. If you are sensitive you may want to pass this book. I really enjoyed Reese's character, but I struggled with Jo's character. Since the author tells you her backstory, and you know she's been through the ringer, I thought it might help, but it was still a struggle. The majority of the book is Jo's struggle with the past which is why I rated the book at 4 stars. If they would have toned down that struggle somewhat I would have loved the book. The story line is interesting, I enjoy seeing the characters from the past books and hearing how they are doing, and unlike some books, the book doesn't just end and leave you hanging. You get some closure at the end, the reason I phrase it like that is there will be another book.... Look forward to reading the next book in the series. Hope this helps! Happy reading!!!

I am so enjoying this series. I just loved Reese. He was a fox shifter that was just perfect for Jo. He had the perfect personality and patience to help her heal and move on. I loved that fact that the author made Jo a witch. It truly made the story truly interesting. They both served the goddess but in a different way. This was Reese’s first time meeting a witch and Jo’s first time meeting a shifter I had t wonder what was going through her mind. Oh, I did not like Bianca. She was one evil, well you get the picture. You will have to read the book to find out what meanness she was up to. It is always good to see some of the previous characters in each story. I have to say I just love Fiona. She truly has a gift and it makes you wonder what her whole story is. Reese will have a ways to go before he has Jo’s trust. I love how he went about winning her. Jo is a Juvie and is in denial about the whole thing. She is also in danger and has a past that she is having a hard time over coming. There are things that happen that Jo is having issues dealing with and Reese will have a hard time dealing his own things as well. The one thing I love is that love wins out in the end. FYI.. looking forward to Jase’s story.
