Resultados para "The Menagerie" en Romántica

When Delilah Marlow visits a famous traveling carnival, Metzger's Menagerie, she is an ordinary woman in a not-quite-ordinary world. But under the macabre circus black-top, she discovers a fierce, sharp-clawed creature lurking just beneath her human veneer. Captured and put on exhibition, Delilah is stripped of her worldly possessions, including her own name, as she's forced to "perform" in town after town. But there is breathtaking beauty behind the seamy and grotesque reality of the carnival.

Amelia usually loves Christmas. But this year, it's her first one alone since losing her husband. Well... not quite alone. Thanks to the infuriatingly handsome new village vet, who's shut down the local kennels, Amelia finds herself playing reluctant host to a chaotic parade of pets: a parrot with attitude, two sulky tortoises, and a mysterious swarm of baby mice. As her home turns into a festive menagerie, Amelia ends up spending far more time with Jules the vet than she ever intended. And despite the villagers being up in arms, she's starting to enjoy his company far too much.

Even an alpha pup can change an innocent mortal like me into a shape-shifting powerhouse. Flung into a new world where submission might mean death and pack politics rule the secret supernatural society, I'm lost but not alone. With the pup's father, Hudson, and his packmates leading me through this strange environment, I feel as though I could take on the world. They have everything I need; confidence, power, money. And I'm everything they could ever want. I haven't been on a date in years, and now I have four gorgeous, rich werewolves chasing me. What's a girl to do?

Not your typical reverse harem.... Gryphon shifter Gesa Lionheart isn’t your typical heroine. Screwed over by her family - a stunningly medieval gryphon clan that is supposed to value loyalty and truth - the former bodyguard sets out on her own to a remote city growing in the Michigan wilderness. With little in the way of life skills outside her clan training, and no one to depend on, she becomes a bounty hunter - chasing down low-level supernatural criminals for the local human police department.

When Gesa escaped her oppressive clan to become a bounty hunter in a growing backwater city, she never imagined she would end up dating a fae. She might try her best to deny Oisin’s jokes about her starting a pride - a harem reserved for male gryphons - but Gesa is growing dangerously fond of their roommate and secretary, the unassuming human, Con. But romantic issues are the least of Gesa’s worries. Her ancient, deadly fae lover is hiding something.

I grew up chasing the fae through the garden, pretending I saw ghosts in the house, and dreaming of dragons. That's all long behind me now. Mother's spells didn't save her, and in turn, I dedicated myself to science. Work as a paleontologist is everything I dreamed it could be. You find solid facts buried thousands of years ago. You can quantify those facts. It's real. You can touch it, prove it, and most of all - you know it works. My team never meant to find a nest of dragon eggs at a dig site. And I'm the only one who recognizes what they are.

Gesa does not have a pride. Only male gryphons need a whole harem of lovers to stroke their egos. But when a fortune-telling fox from the county fair and a captive mute sea-dweller turn to Gesa for help, she can’t turn them away. Sometimes, being a creature of valor and loyalty is a pain in the ass.

Gryphon shifter Gesa Lionheart’s life is getting more complicated by the minute. She left her clan so she could escape their mind games, but here she is, pulled right back into the thick of it. It seems like saving her sister from the loony bin and ruining her mother’s political machinations would be enough to deal with, but no. Her snarky little fae is hiding something dangerous, her fox is about to lose his mind, her human might not be as human as he seems, and somehow, they’ve ended up with a strange squatter in their bookstore.

Betrayed by her family, gryphon shifter Gesa Lionheart strikes out on her own. When she decides to help the local police department deal with minor supernatural offenders, she has no idea it will lead to her relationship with a snarky fae, a sweet human, a sexy fox, and a voluptuous sea creature. Only arrogant, asinine alpha male gryphons have harems. But Gesa was never content to follow rules. Somewhere between finding missing humans and solving shifter murders, this tough gryphon finds herself with her own pride.

Just when Gesa thought her pride was complete, Halstad has vanished in the night, and the mage guild is denying any knowledge of his whereabouts. It would seem the mage doesn't want to be part of the pride...but Gesa's gryphon senses are tingling. Something smells like lies. To top it all off, the guild is refusing to sell mage contracts to anyone near Derek White. Even once Gesa finds her mage, she might not be able to keep him.

Gesa and her pride have managed to survive the fae lands and take back their mate from his psychotic father. But Oisin is broken, unable to recall much of his previous life—including the reasons he fell in love with a big, brash gryphon or a young, unstable fox. Meanwhile, Hisashi’s display of power in the fae lands has only increased the growth of his dangerous, uncontrollable spirit powers. He needs an anchor. And that might mean tying himself to the family shrine for the rest of his long life.

When the thing that birthed her drags Gesa back to the gryphon clan using her sister’s illness as bait, Gesa and her harem find themselves breaking out of an asylum and fleeing assassins - without really knowing who the creeps are even targeting. After all, there are so many options to choose from on the list of people who want Gesa or her lovers dead. But the trouble doesn’t stop when she leaves clan lands. Oisin’s been hiding someone, and Gesa doesn’t like unexpected visitors.
