I've been binging on shifters lately and this story caught me from the first time I read the description. Today's excerpt is from Mated by Moonlight by the talented Jessa Slade. You're welcome, shifter lovers. ;)
As the latest in a long line of female Alphas, Merrilee Delemont lives by the code be strong always.
While she will never forsake her duty to her pack, she sometimes longs
for a mate to share her life with. At least she's found someone to share
her bed: Beck Villanova, leader of the neighboring wolf pack.
EXCERPT:
Beck was magnificent, even for wolf-kind. He sacrificed none of his immense size to the change. If anything, his heavy ruff and luxurious tail tipped with silver made him seem even larger in the verita luna.
His eyes were the same molten gold though. Not exactly the same, of course. A wereling’s eyes always seemed brighter, as if some tarnish of the human flesh was scoured away in the Second Truth. Despite the flattening effects of the moonlight, the gold gleamed at her with a purity that made her shuffle her paws uncomfortably in the long grass.
She didn’t want to stare into his eyes. She hadn’t lured him all the way out here to deal in truths—first, second or any other number.
She tilted back her head to stare up at the moon and breathed out a long sigh as she shifted. Her bones ached and her skin felt seared by terrible sunburn as she made the change. She reared up onto her back legs—no, her only pair of legs now as she shifted back to her human flesh—so she could stand over him.
But when her vision cleared, Beck was standing too, big and naked.

Their red-hot attraction and
struggle for dominance leads to wild sex, but any chance of a real
relationship goes up in smoke. Until phae invaders threaten the
peace of their remote valley, forcing Merrille and Beck to finally
decide which is more important: vying for power, or a passionate
partnership that could change their lives forever.
