Hello! Thank you,
Nikki for having Nevan and me over today. We are excited to be here
and share a little about Winter Eve and Nevan.
Lia: Hi,
Nevan! Please share a little about you.
Nevan: Hello.
I’m the lone human in a Pack of leopards and wolves, and now the
Pack psychiatrist. *he shook his head and chucked*
Lia: Do they
really need a shrink?
Nevan:
*raises a brow at my word choice* I was given the job more for my
empathic ability. I can assist with any member that may needs an
emotional boost, or just need someone to hang out with.
Lia: So you
just hang out?
Nevan:
*Another raised eyebrow* You know the answer to that question.
Lia:
*sighing* but the readers don’t. Humor me, will you? You’ve been
hang out with Blaine too much. I thought you were supposed to
influence the patient and not the other way around.
Nevan: *Threw
his head back in laugher* There’s no hope for Blaine. He will
always be a dominate alpha male.
Lia: Yes, I’m
afraid so. Answer the question.
Nevan: ‘Hang
out’ may not be the correct term. Shifters depend on the structure
of the Pack, the emotions, the connections, the discipline and so on.
By having lunch with one of them, I’m learning from them and giving
them my trust. In time I won’t need to visit with everyone all the
time.
*He pauses to study
me*
You seem a little
punchy. Do you need to talk about it?
Lia: *I offer
him my best I-don’t-think-so smile* Shay’s getting cold feet, I
think.
Nevan:
*pressed his lips together, trying to hide his smirk from me. It was
so not working* That’s right. You’re writing her story. Not going
well?
Lia: It’s
going great except…hey! I’m supposed to be interviewing you.
Nevan: *He
shrugs* You’re more interesting.
Lia: No, I’m
not. Are you like this with Dani?
Nevan: Like
what?
Lia: *I
studied his smirking face for a few moments, then noticed that he was
playing.* Do the cats not like to play with you that you have to
irritate me?
Nevan: I’m
not irritating you.
Lia: *I’d
ask how he knew, but he’s empathic* Last question and we must be
going. How do you like living in the den?
Nevan: I like
it. I love the diversity with the two different shifter Packs
learning to live as one. Even though they’ve been together for
thirty years, It’s been rough building the strength they have now
and still building.
Lia: Yeah,
Luna and Keegan are great Alphas. Thanks so much for coming and
taking over my interview.
*Nevan laughed and
kissed my cheek before leaving*
Thanks again, Nikki,
for having me.

Dani and Nevan’s
story is the prequel to my new series, Ashwood Falls. Below is more
about Winter Eve and a short excerpt. Enjoy!
Title: Winter
Eve, Ashwood Falls prequel
Author: By
Lia Davis
Publisher: Fated
Desires Publishing
Genre: Paranormal
Romance
Blurb:
There
comes a time when setting your differences aside isn’t just
necessary, it’s a means of survival. After losing over half of
their dens to a group rogue shifters, the wolves and leopards merged
as one Pack, but living together is much more of a challenge then
they expected.
Danica Welsh was
born to be the leopard pack healer. An accident involving a drug
induced youth left her badly burned and scared—emotionally and
physically. Without the ability to heal by touch, she secludes
herself to the edge of town, away from Ashwood Falls’ overly
concerned citizens. All hope of mating and family become a distance
dream. When she finally starts to accepts the long, lonely existence
ahead of her, a stranger crashes into her life, and her heart.
After Nevan Mathews’
fiancée died three ago, he submerged himself into his work, cutting
off all reminders of a life he dreamed of with the woman he loved. He
lets his step-mother talk him into taking the first vacation in five
years to visit for the holidays. But an accident delays his travel
plans, sending him to Danica’s doorstep and raises a need he
thought he would never feel again.
Can they tear down
the walls around their hearts and submit to the passion before
another claims Dani for his own?
Warning: Contains a
shifter who's scars run deeper than skin, a human who has the heart
of a shifter, and a snow storm that's sure to have them both reaching
for warmth.

Excerpt:
Movement to his right caught his
attention, and he narrowed his eyes for a better look. A large
leopard crouched, staring at him from the roadside. With eyes that
reflected the full moon's light, the creature blinked and let out a
soft growl before it turned to walk up a gravel driveway.
The animal was beautiful, scary, and
its eyes held a hint of humanity. Could it be a were? Sarah hadn’t
said anything about others living this far up the mountain. When the
beast turned to look at him, he swore it wanted him to follow. He
took a step forward, and the cat started walking again.
"Oh, great, Nev. You're being lead
away by a cat, like Alice and that damn rabbit," he muttered to
himself. No one would ever believe him. In fact, it was probably
leading him to the den to share with the rest of the pack. Shaking
his head at the ridiculous thought, he walked up the driveway. The
cat sped up, running ahead much too fast for him. Then it darted into
the woods a few feet from a single-story log cabin nestled into the
surrounding trees. Another step caused a blinding light to click on,
illuminating the front of the yard and the cabin. A few moments
later, the door opened, revealing the most beautiful woman he'd ever
seen. She stepped out onto the large wide porch. Her straight
silk-like strawberry blond hair cascaded over her shoulders and
stopped at her waist. The light of the full moon cast against her
pale skin made her look like a goddess.
"What can I do to help you?"
Her velvety smooth voice warmed his
body and awoke a very specific part of his anatomy. It was several
seconds before he found his voice and shook out of the trance she’d
cast upon him. "I crashed my car and wondered if you have a
phone. My cell doesn't get service up here."
"I don’t have a phone." Her
gaze left him to search their surroundings and stopped as she glanced
toward the dark sky as though she saw something he didn't, or
couldn't, see. "But, come inside. You’ll freeze to death in
the storm." She turned and walked back inside.
Storm?
A single snowflake drifted in front of
his face, landing on his nose.
