#Review
The idea of this story captured me. Shifters and the Native American world – sounds mystical, not to mention intriguing. The story itself was complex and contained love, mystery and a bit of suspense. It’s always difficult for a novella to contain a complex story, but Legend’s Promise delivered.
Shane and Cheyenne’s characters weren’t deeply developed, but that’s nearly impossible to do in the short length of the novella. One thing that did bother me about the couple was the lack of communication. I really wanted them to have a good sit down and discuss the past and future. Never happened.
My problem with the story was the writing. It was choppy. The transitions between scenes and chapters weren’t smooth. The change from his to her perspective and vice versa didn’t work for me. It was too disruptive. The sexual encounters were a bit corny for me. Maybe I’m just older than the intended audience of the story?
Overall, it’s a quick read of an hour or two with lots of steam and an interesting story. With some editing and more story development, this could make an excellent novel.
#Excerpt
She gripped the counter behind her. He’d never believed the bit about her mom changing jobs. If she revealed the real reason they’d left Manteo, he’d think her insane. “I’d never betray you, Shane.” Her words spilled out, sounding breathless.
The back of his knees hit the chair, skidding it backward. It tipped over as he closed in on her like a predator. His eyes darkened to molten caramel as his nostrils flared. Over two hundred pounds of sinewy muscles trapped her against the counter while large hands rested at her lower back.
Stunned, she froze. Anger and passion mixed. The pungent aroma of whiskey wafted from masculine lips hovering inches from hers.
In mocked defiance, she raised her chin. The act forced him to pause, but only for a second, before claiming her mouth.
Savagely.
Branding her.
As he had when she was sixteen.
Freewill gone, she melted into his hard embrace and prodding erection. His tongue swept past her teeth with hunger as he lifted her onto the counter.
“God, Chey.” He hissed, squeezing her ass, making her wet with need.
His hands roved under her skirt, skimming the tops of her thighs until his fingers caught the band of her silk thong. Like a hunter, he shredded the flimsy barrier.
Her head fell back in surrender as her hips bucked forward. Far better than whiskey, his touch drugged her, weakened her defenses. Nothing had changed.

Excerpt sounds like it’s from a porn flic (a bad one, too). Maybe I’m just too old for this…
When did we get old?
Sometime after the new millennium, I guess
Darn. I was thinking yesterday 😉
I was, for sure, only talking about myself 😉
