Shifters of Black Forest Ridge: Quinn (E-Book)

Chapter 1

Desperately, I threw myself up the porch stairs, tripping, righting myself, slamming against the door. I pounded on it frantically.
“Help!” I swallowed hard. “Let me in. Mutant Bigfoot wolf is going to eat me!”
Heavy footsteps approached the door, and I heard locks and bolts being opened on the other side. A moment later, someone yanked the door open. I stumbled forward before a pair of hands gripped my forearms and righted me.
With lungs burning, I tilted my head back to look into the man’s eyes.
He wasn’t handsome, but he had a face that was hard to look away from. With short black hair, he possessed rough, masculine features. Inky black brows slashed over piercing, sky-blue eyes.
He continued to stare down at me as though he were memorizing every line and contour of my face.
I opened my mouth to speak, but the only thing that came out was a high-pitched squeak.
He sniffed. His eyes narrowed.
Oh God. He thinks I stink.
Embarrassed, I pulled away from him and launched myself onto the closest thing inside—a brown saddle-leather couch.
Inside, the space was so warm it made my chilled skin sting. I panned my eyes around the bright area. The far side of this room had a full, large kitchen. On the north side was a larger dining room area, where a long table, overhung by an antler chandelier, seated a group of men the size of linebackers, who were now staring at me as if they’d discovered a new species and didn’t know if I was dangerous.
A heavy silence descended on the room, and the only thing missing was the loud chirp of crickets.
My heart battered against the wall of my chest. Shit. And they’re massive, like they could lift a damn truck.
They were all scowling, and each strong-featured man wore a long-sleeved button-up work shirt, jeans, and cowboy boots, tanned as if they spent lots of time outdoors rounding up cattle.
I swallowed hard. Sweat coated my clammy hands and prickled under my arms. Oh God. Did I jump out of the frying pan into the fire?
My breath quickened, going into panic mode.
Are they a cult of crazy cowboys?
