Taken by the Beast
by Anya Summers
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Erotic Paranormal Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Gemma’s
life was nearly perfect. She’s just graduated from college and is heading off
to graduate school in the fall. She and her best friends are taking a trip
she’s always dreamed about. Only, nothing goes as planned. After being chased
on the streets of Dublin by a freaking monster, they get sucked into a portal
and wind up on another world. As in, not Earth. Now she can’t find her friends,
but there is this really hot, naked guy who calls himself a king and is
offering her aid.
There’s
only one teensy little problem: He says she’s his mate and is planning on
keeping her—forever. Oh, and there’s one more thing: He’s a beast most of the
time. And Gemma has to decide if she’s willing to give up everything for the
one man she’s meant to be with in the universe.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EXCERPT ONE:
Their
footsteps clicked against the pavement. Gemma wasn’t normally overly dramatic or
prone to hysterics, but the deserted lane had her riding the edge of panic. Her
senses were on high alert, and she was hyperaware of every sound. She was ready
to call a halt and get an Uber.
As
they meandered farther down the unfamiliar lane that made her think they had
entered a Charles Dickens novel, with the cobbled streets and
turn-of-the-century architecture, Gemma fretted that they had taken the wrong
street. And there was something in the air. It was quiet. Too quiet. Not even
crickets hummed.
It
was then that she heard it. A great swooshing noise. The va-woop-woop-woop made
her think of helicopter blades, but there was no engine motor thrumming with
it.
“Do
you guys hear that?” Gemma asked, glancing behind them, trying to discern where
the unnatural sound was coming from.
“I
thought that was just me,” Moira said. “What do you suppose it is?”
“I
don’t hear anything,” Anna said, looking up and down the street, her brow
furrowed in concentration. “Clearly, this is not the way to the hotel. Sorry,
guys. Maybe we should take that street coming up on the right. It should take
us in the general direction of the hotel.” Then she raised her head, peering up
at the darkness beyond the streetlamps.
At
Anna’s bloodcurdling scream, Gemma jerked and followed her gaze up to the
black, starry sky above. Gemma shook her head as she stared, trying to clear
it. What had been in that Guinness? Had someone slipped a drug into her beer
and roofied her? Her mind was playing tricks on her. Or it was the light and an
overactive imagination.
Moira’s
scream joined Anna’s. It wasn’t a hallucination. It was a fucking monster.

AUTHOR BIO:
Born
in St. Louis, Missouri, Anya grew
up listening to Cardinals baseball and reading anything she could get her hands
on. She remembers her mother saying if only she would read the right type of
books instead binging her way through the romance aisles at the bookstore,
she’d have been a doctor. While Anya never did get that doctorate, she
graduated cum laude from the University of Missouri-St. Louis with an M.A. in
History.
Anya
is a bestselling and award-winning author published in multiple fiction genres.
She also writes urban fantasy and paranormal romance under the name Maggie Mae
