Kindle Edition Amazon Beth Blake Romance Category:  Romance Publisher: Keith Publications Type: Fiction Pages: 254 Copyright: October 2012 Price: $3.99 (eBook) A sweet romance set in Arizona about a veterinary assistant.  Veterinary assistant Mandy Woods sets out in southern Arizona to discover who is killing Mexican Gray Wolves, an endangered species.      Her search for the killer with another Save the Wolves member named Charley, leads the two of them into danger that could be deadly for both of them.      As soon as Mandy begins to trust Charley, she learns of a secret he has kept from her—a secret that destroys her trust. Mandy knows the only chance she has of happiness is to face her fears and forge ahead alone with her dream to open an animal shelter for injured large animals. Even if this means denying her feelings for Charley. Excerpt Thunder rumbled so loudly that it sounded only a few feet away. Large rocks from overhead fell in front of them with a deafening roar. Dozens and dozens of them. They kept coming. No wonder the noise had sounded so close. It wasn’t the thunder. "WATCH OUT! Landslide!" somebody yelled. Somebody's hand grabbed her, pulling her deeper into the cave to safety. Then it pushed her onto the dusty rocky floor. Charley? His arm wrapped around her waist. He pulled her close to him. Frightened, she buried her face into his chest. Her eyes closed tightly. She lay on her side. He covered her body with his. Dust flew everywhere, infiltrating her lungs. Small rocks kicked up and pounded her back. It seemed endless. The sound roared in her ears like a train running over her. Strong arms held her close to a rock solid body, protecting her. The fear the landslide had driven deep inside her abated a bit as she rested in Charley's embrace. She felt safe with him, even when the earth seemed to fall on top of her. The steady pounding of falling stones stopped suddenly. Mandy didn't dare move, afraid it would start again. The deafening quiet pounded in her ears as blood rushed through her head. Dust clogged her nose and covered her lips. The hard, lumpy ground dug into every part of her aching body.

Shelter of Love
I'm partial to books located in the Southwest and throw in a woman discovering her own personal strength and power, well I'm loving it. Shelter of Love takes Mandy, who has a passion for saving endangered wolves, through a romantic but rocky relationship with Charlie, to a life and death experience with the bad guy. Fun. Tender. Exciting. Try it. You'll love it, too.

Shelter of Love
I enjoyed this romance. The plot was good. I like books that are written about the southwest. And I'm an animal lover so I also like books that discuss animals (she's a veterinary assistant who wants to build an animal shelter to rescue animals.) Not "Gone With the Wind", but definitely a decent read. If you like romances with romantic sex instead of graphic sex, then you will like this book. It's not erotica at all.
