He opened his mouth to order her to drop the MP5 she had
aimed at him, but nothing would come out. It was like she’d robbed him of the
ability to speak. Shooting her wasn’t an option, though. And the idea of
arresting her didn’t make him feel any better.
There's a new gang of criminals in town who are organized
and ruthless in the extreme. When Eric Becker, along with the rest of the Dallas
SWAT team, ends up in the middle of a shootout, he immediately senses
werewolves-a lot of them. Turns out, the new bad guys are a pack of wolf
shifters.
In a spray of gunfire, Becker comes face-to-face with the
most gorgeous woman he's ever seen. Becker does the logical thing. He hides her
and leaves the scene with the rest of his team.
Jayna Winston has no idea why that SWAT guy helped her, but
she's glad he did. Ever since she and her pack mates got mixed up with those
Eastern European mobsters, everything had pretty much fallen apart.
So what's a street-savvy thief like Jayna going to do
with a hot alpha-male wolf who's a police officer?

Review by pearls
When an Alpha tries to lead his pack into a life of crime, is there a way out? While Jayna may be the glue that binds the members together, she's still a beta like the others following orders. You can see the strength in her that she's not aware of, and once she's pushed to far that strength that comes barreling out. If you like stories with strong heroines, you will like Jayna. Eric is an awesome Alpha: loyal, protective, fierce and strong. And when he finds his mate, his One, he puts it all on the line to protect her and the ones she loves. I couldn't help falling in love with him #mynextfictionalboyfriend Lots of action, with guns blazing and tons of sexual tension between the two and they dance between duty and desire. While it is the 3rd in the series, it can be read as a stand-alone. But since I've read the previous two, I urge you to read them also.
This December, Paige
Tyler releases the third in her action-packed SWAT series, IN THE COMPANY OF WOLVES. To celebrate
the release of IN THE COMPANY OF WOLVES, Paige Tyler stopped by to tell us
about one of her favorite fun loving heroes in pop culture and to share an
excerpt showcasing her own hero’s fun loving side!
Paige Tyler:
Everyone loves reading about alpha males, right? But of course, you can’t have
a single dimensional character that’s just hardcore alpha all the time. It
comes off as flat or just plain irritating. Most of the time you want to let
your alpha have a lighter side, just to keep things interesting. One of my
favorite fun loving heroes from popular culture is Dean Winchester!
Jensen Ackles plays a monster-hunting bad boy along with his
brother Sam (Jared Padalecki) on my favorite long-running television series Supernatural. Both brothers are
incredibly hot, but Dean is the one more likely to crack jokes and live in the
moment in contrast to Sam, who can be a little moody sometimes. He’s lived
through so much violence and pain—every friend and family member has been
killed during the eleven season run of this series—but he can still appreciate
an attractive woman or a big cheeseburger. I mean, the first thing he went for
after spending a year in hell was a burger. One really funny tidbit about Dean
is that the original developer of the story (Eric Kripke) based the character
of Dean on—you guessed it—Han Solo, because he wanted him to have that swagger
that Solo was able to pull off with ease. One of the things I love about Dean
is the bond he has with Sam. It’s what gets them both through the day even when
facing monsters, angels, and demons that are way out of their league.
An Excerpt
One
of the Albanians shouted something from the front of the store in his own
language, following it up with an order to the omegas to stop wasting time and
get the damn safe open. Becker ground his teeth. He should have simply
kidnapped Jayna and her entire pack. Then he could have just walked into the
loft and shot every one of these idiots—twice.
“Watch
them,” he told Jayna, motioning to the security guard and two women. Turning,
he left the break room and jogged down the hallway toward the back of the
building.
“Get
them back on the safe!” the Albanian driver shouted at him from the front room.
Oh
yeah, sure. Stop two morons from raping a woman and get them back on task. What
the hell was he—a daycare worker for omega werewolves?
Shit. If this was how criminals
behaved, it was no wonder he and his SWAT teammates took so many of them down.
They were too stupid to live. Then again, maybe this was how Gage felt some
days. The SWAT pack could occasionally be a little stupid too. Becker’s current
predicament was a shining example of that.
The
omega standing guard in the hallway outside the manager’s office glared at him.
“We got this. Go back and babysit the old folks.”
What
a complete ass, Becker thought as he walked up and punched the guy in the face.
The werewolf flew backward and bounced off the wall, bleeding like crazy from a
broken nose as he fell to the floor in a dazed heap. He was still moving around
though, reminding Becker that it was as hard to knock out an omega as it was to
knock out an alpha. He’d have to remember that.
Becker
strode into the office to find the store manager on the floor beside her desk,
the other omega—the one who liked to play with his platinum medallion—leaning
over her menacingly. He’d torn her blouse and was telling her all the horrible
things he planned to do to her if she didn’t open the safe. The idiot was so
intent on threatening her that he didn’t realize Becker was there until he
yanked the guy to his feet and spun him around, then smashed the back of his
head into the nearest hard object he could find—the safe panel. Becker pounded
his head into the safe a few times before letting him fall to the floor. The
asshole was definitely out cold.
Becker
turned and looked at the shop manager. She cringed away from him, terror in her
eyes as she tried to hold the tatters of her blouse together. He really wished
he could pull up his ski mask. Seeing him like this definitely wasn’t helping.
Do
you have an alarm button in this room?” he asked in his softest, least
intimidating voice.
The
woman stared at him for a moment like he was insane, then motioned under the
desk with a shaking hand.
“Would
you mind pushing it for me?” he asked.
Now
she looked really confused. But she slowly reached under the desk and poked
around until a loud alarm started ringing.
“Thanks.”
Becker bent down to take the platinum medallion out of the omega’s vest and
slip it into his pocket. “By the way, that diamond merchant you bought from in
New York sold you out to a really bad guy. You probably don’t want to buy from
him anymore.” Turning, he jogged out of the room and down the hallway to the
front of the store. “Time to leave. Moron hit the alarm.”
Jayna
was heading his way in a flash, the two Albanians right behind her.
“What
about the safe?” the driver asked.
Becker
shook his head. “It’s a no-go. Our guy smashed the keypad.”
The
Albanians muttered something in their native language and shook their heads, as
if they’d seen this coming. They stepped over the omega who was still rolling
around in a daze on the floor in the hallway and raced out the back door. In
the distance, sirens echoed in the air. About damn time. Becker motioned Jayna
out.
“What
about him?” she asked, jerking her head at the werewolf still trying to get to
his knees.
Becker
nudged the omega with his boot, pushing him back down. The guy looked like he
really didn’t want to bother getting up this time.
“What
about him?” Becker said, holding the door open for her.
