CASSADEE SINGS THE BLUES – GREY RIVER
2
What
would you do if you featured in a prophecy that if left unsolved meant the end
of the world? Casey Rika went
camping! Despite being a powerful
Elemental, she got shot twice, left for dead in the middle of the forest and ended
up in the arms of the wolf from her dreams.
As
the Earth Elemental determined by birth, and chosen by a goddess, Casey had
until the first day of summer to solve her part of the prophecy, and start the
journey to save a goddess caught in the Otherworld, and defeat a God. How hard could that be?
Micah
Winters rescue mission into the national park where he worked as a ranger,
became personal as soon as he realized it was his mate he was rescuing. Now, Micah really only had one goal – help
his mate solve the prophecy and keep her alive.

BOOK COVER…
The story…
PG
EXCERPT:
“How did you know I was your mate?” Micah asked suddenly, and Casey
smiled. She had been wondering when this was going to come up again.
“Well, because of- let’s just say circumstances in my life beyond my
control, I have a very strong interest in the super natural. I have met with, and spoke to a lot of
shifter communities and leaders over the years.
I met the Sharman for one of the northern wolf packs who told me I was
the mate to a wolf, and that he would come for me when I was in danger. He told
me that I would recognize you immediately and would feel the mating bond form
and I did.”
Casey smiled shyly as Micah’s eyes softened as he looked at her. She had left out a few other indications like
the fact that she had dreamed about him for years, but if he didn’t remember
those dreams then perhaps the Fates had only meant them for her.
“I learnt a lot from each and every person I spoke with, and the fact
that for wolf shifters you won’t fully merge with your inner wolf spirit until
you actually scent your mate was something I found beautiful.” Casey was quiet
for a moment as she struggled to but her thoughts into words.
“That moment when you scent your mate and everything aligns within you,
it’s like the coming together of heart, body and soul and it is so beautiful to
me. What was it like for you?”
Micah smiled. “It was exactly how my dad described it to me and my
brothers. I scented you and felt this
huge swell of power and strength and it dropped me to my knees. I had to fight my wolf for control for a
moment, the merge shook the both of us I think, but I managed to force the
change back to human. “
“Can he force you to change form?”
“Before meeting you, there was always the possibility of that. He’s a strong wolf, and quite stubborn. They need to be allowed to exercise and take
control in order to cede control at other times if that makes sense. It is a privilege and an honor to have a wolf
spirit, and he and I will work as one to protect you from now on.”
“I’m not quite sure what we do now?” she asked after a moment.
“Yeah, you and me both, sweetheart.” Micah cleaned up their breakfast
and then moved to sit facing her on the bed. “I wasn’t exactly looking for a
mate, Casey.”
Casey felt her heart shudder at a sudden thought. “Oh God, do you have a
girlfriend?” Jealousy bloomed through her body with a speed that surprised her.
Micah grinned, the bastard. “No, I don’t, baby. But I do like that
jealous streak you have going there. Makes my dick hard.” If he expected her to
blush and get all embarrassed because he used the word dick, then he was
tripping. And he had never met a woman who wrote erotic romances for a living.
“Well, that’s good to know, and I can assure you that there are a lot of
things I can do that will make your dick hard.” She winked at him when his jaw
dropped open a little. “What? Did you think I’ve never seen a hard dick before
or to that point, never even touched one?” This time it was his eyes that
sparked with jealousy, and she liked it too. A lot.
“Yeah, new rule. No more talking about other dicks you’ve seen and
certainly none that you’ve touched, deal?” Grinning, she nodded. Then his eyes
lowered to her lips. His eyes darkened when she wet her suddenly extremely dry
lips. He made a low growling noise that had her creaming herself. Hot damn, he
was one hot shifter. His eyes suddenly changed from steel gray to pale blue,
telling her that his wolf was near the surface.
He wrapped his hand around the nape of her neck, pulled her into him,
and then he just devoured her. She had no other word for it—one minute she was
in control of herself and then he simply took over, leaning up and over her
bending her to his will. He thrust his tongue into her mouth, gliding it over
hers, twining them together, and when she sucked on his tongue, he growled.
Then he sucked her bottom lip into his mouth.
Pulling away, she took a moment to get her equilibrium back before she
opened her eyes. When she did, she saw him smiling gently at her. When she
smiled back, he stroked his fingers over her cheek. “When you get the all clear
to leave, would you come home with me?” His tone was hesitant, as if fearing
her rejection. Silly wolf, did he not own a mirror?
“I think that would a really good idea.” She watched a smile spread
across his face, one that matched her own. Then she reached up, mirrored his
move from moments before, and pulled him down for another kiss.

Excerpt R
Casey
mewled and Micah felt her start to tremble. Rotating his hand so that his palm
almost cupped her, his fingers found the bumpy ridge inside her that was going
to blow her mind. As her trembling started to grow, he swirled his tongue
around her clit and pulled it into his mouth. Just as she started to convulse,
he fucked her hard with his fingers, sliding them high up into her against the
sweet spot that would have her coming hard. And come hard she did.
“Fuuuuucccckkkk!”
Her scream echoed through his room and he growled as cream gushed from her
pussy. She had released so much he had to swallow repeatedly. Fucking ambrosia.
If he had his way, he would do this every damn day for the rest of his fucking
life! Not leaving her through the intense orgasm, he licked and slowly brought
her down from the heights he had driven her too.
He
felt her slump forward and he helped her to slide down his body so that she was
straddling his lap and her head was buried in his neck. She was breathing hard
and little shocks of pleasure still racked her body. Micah had pleasured her
well and he felt invincible. He would have enjoyed it more if he wasn’t harder
than he had ever been in his life and needing to be buried inside of her more
he had needed anything else in his life.
Casey
suddenly groaned and pulled back to look at him. He gently drew the long
strands of her long dark hair over her shoulders. Damn she made his heart ache.
Her green eyes sparkled and her grin was sleepy, satisfied, and contented as
hell. “Jesus, Micah, you sure know how to treat a woman!” She leaned forward
and sucked his bottom lip into her mouth, nibbling on it. “But I need something
more. Fuck me, Micah, please?” She started nibbling on his earlobe and he felt
his eyes roll back into his head.
“Christ,
Casey! You keep doing that and I’m gonna fuck you here on the floor.” Micah
moaned as she bit into the fleshy part of his shoulder. The placement not lost
on him. When he eventually claimed her, that would be the spot on her shoulder
he’d sink his teeth into and make her his. She surprised the hell out of him
then by leveraging herself up so she could grasp his cock in her hand, and she
guided him into her body. The warm, wet heat of her pussy fit him like a glove,
and just as she was about to take all of him, she swiveled her hips, making him
jerk.
“Fuck,
baby, you fit me so damn well. Your pussy is soft and wet around my dick.” He
felt her pussy ripple around him and he threw his head back with a shout. “Oh
yeah, do that again.” She leaned back, gripping his shoulders for leverage, and
then ground against his hips while massaging him from the inside. He growled
and groaned as she gave him the hottest damn lap dance in history, all while he
knelt on the floor of his bedroom.
A
sudden thought occurred to him and had him freezing. “Casey baby, not that I
wouldn’t love to see you swollen with my child, but are you on birth control?”
She
gave him a smile as she bit her lip, nodded, and then started moving harder
against him. Sooner than he would have liked, she had him hovering near
madness, and he knew his eyes would be flashing blue. Growling, he lifted up to
kneel and Casey gasped in his ear as she wrapped her long sleek legs around his
waist and held on. He knew he wouldn’t be able to make it up onto the bed, so he
simply rolled and laid her down on the bedroom rug, still buried balls deep
inside her. He pulled her legs higher up his hips, grabbed her arms, and put
them up over her head with her wrists clasped in one of his hands.
He
breathed deep, taking the smell of their arousal and the earthy smell of sex
into his lungs. He locked gazes with her and then slammed his hips into her,
making her body bounce and her eyes widen. “Can you handle it, baby?” he asked,
holding himself back with all the strength he had in his body. His muscles were
locked so damn tight he thought they might actually snap. If she said she
needed slow, he didn’t know what the hell he would do.
Then
she gave him a smile so sexy, so damn wicked he cursed. “Handle it? Baby, I can
handle anything you can dish out, and more. Now, fuck me hard! Take me like you
mean it.” And that was it. The tight hold he had on his control snapped and he
started to slam his hips into hers, driving pleasure into every cell of his
body as she lifted her hips to meet every one of his thrusts.

Five
questions for the author
Q: What was
the inspiration for this series?
A: I love writing about shifters,
and alphas. The complexity to their
personalities and the attitudes you can create with them are really intriguing. You add into strong heroines who have the
ability to manipulate the natural elements and have to solve a prophecy in
order to save the world and you have the type of book I love to read and write.
Q:
Was if fun including little shout outs to New Zealand in this book?
A: Definitely. I am very proud to be from New Zealand and we
have such a rich and diverse culture that being able to plant little kiwi-isms
and shout outs to New Zealand is so much fun.
Casey’s sister Ariana, who we learn a little bit about in this book, is
from New Zealand and is of Maori heritage, so I am looking forward to sharing
more aspects of this culture with you all in the following books of this
series.
Q.
Does each part of the prophecy give us a little insight into what the
other elementals might face and a short hint into the stories?
A. Hmmmm, how to answer this
question. Yes they do, but not
entirely. Each of the Elementals need to
complete their individual prophecy journey to see what role they play in
freeing Olwen. But each one also has a
very personal journey that needs to be completed at the same time. There will be tears, blood shed and a whole
heap of having to lend a hand to help a friend in need and that is a part of
this series that I love writing.
Q.
What are you working on at the moment?
A. Grey River has so many stories
to tell, and I am currently working on Xanthe’s story. Xanthe has a lot going on in her life at the
moment and when her past crashes into her present… well, let’s just say shit
gets real!! I am also working on book
three of this series and boy oh boy!
There are some scenes in this book that I am finding very hard to write,
characters I love in so much danger makes Maia a very nervous author!
Q.
Do you have anything to say to your current readers or to those that
haven’t yet read you work?
A. Thank you to all my readers who
are enjoying the Grey River series. I do
hope you will give the Shifters of Freedom Springs a try. All of the characters are looking forward to
taking you on their journey to save the world and hope you’ll go along for the
ride. It is always a treat for me to
hear from my readers so please reach out with a question or a query if you
would like and I look forward to sharing more stories with you!
Author
bio:
Maia Dylan lives, loves and works in beautiful New
Zealand. She married her best friend and
they have two adorable, but stubborn children who obviously take after their
father.
Maia’s career has featured a lot of travel, and she has
filled her time at airports and in the air with books, books and more
books. Her love of erotic paranormal
romance has seen her amass a huge library.
She has been an avid reader and lover of ménage romances since she read
her first book in this genre about three years ago.
In January of this year, Maia submitted her first ever
manuscript to Siren Publishing. She
wasn’t at all confident that it would be accepted and in fact she was expecting
a nicely worded email with a resounding no!
Much to her surprise less than two weeks later she had an acceptance and
a signed contract in hand. Since then
she hasn’t looked back and currently has three books in her Grey River series set for publication.
Outside of writing, Maia loves to eat, so she loves to cook! Her herb garden is legendary, but she still
has issues getting tomatoes to grow.
She’s been a performer for years, and has even sung on international
stages, she would love to own a classic Ford Mustang one day and of course have
the opportunity to race it on a race track without fear of a speeding ticket.
Although ultimately her dream is to be able to write full
time on a sandy beach with a Mai Tai at hand, she is quite happy to fit her
writing in when she can. As long as
someone reads her books, gets a laugh and maybe come to love her characters and
much as she does, then she feels that she is living her dreams no matter what!
