About the BookPaige Donovan is an ambitious college graduate who aspires to reach the top of the corporate ladder. She’s climbing fast when given the promotion of a lifetime at a prestigious fashion magazine in New York City. Her bright future comes to an unexpected halt after news of her father’s death. She inherits his old cabin in the Colorado Rockies, and just when she thinks her luck couldn’t get any worse, she has a car accident in the mountains and awakens in the small, remote community of Black River.
Soon, she’s engulfed in the mystical world of Varulv---wolves descended from 13th century Scandinavia and blessed by Norse gods with the ability to appear human.

Now, she must choose between the career she’s always wanted and the love she’s always dreamed.

My Review
Paige Donovan is a girl willing to try new things. She leaves her dream position at a New York fashion magazine for a cabin in the woods. She gets inducted into a mysterious cult straight out of Norse mythology. And to top it off, she even considers having sex with a wolf. As a romance heroine, Paige covers new ground, not afraid to explore areas that might be considered taboo. She ventures into uncharted territory on so many different levels. She doesn't shy away from things just because the culture at large views them as forbidden. She opens herself up to new experiences in order to make up her own mind about what's important to her.
At the same time, she displays quite a multi-faceted persona. She's a young woman still in her early twenties. She gets intimidated around good-looking guys. She places a great deal of emphasis on her appearance. She trusts the wrong men with her heart. Basically, she's learning the game of life as she goes along. Her heart is telling her what it wants, but at the beginning she's too stubborn to listen. She wants things the way she envisions them, not necessarily what's best for her. Designer clothes, a prestigious job, the luxuries of city life - all pale in comparison when it comes to reconnecting with Riley Gray, her one true love.
After discovering Riley's paranormal identity, Paige struggles to keep a grip on reality. She wants to believe in the concept of soul mates and that the little boy she encountered as a child could really grow into the man she could spend the rest of her life with, but she hesitates. She doesn't want to give up on everything she's worked so hard for in her career. She's unsure of how she truly feels about a man who can so easily declare his love for her when she experiences such difficulty expressing her feelings. She wonders if she's making things more complicated instead of just following her instincts or does she know herself better than she thinks? In the end, she has to decide whether she's going to stay with Riley in the isolated town of Black River and if she can imagine a different future for herself than the one she had planned.

What you'll do with your old car after selling it to a junk car yard is repair it and sell it again, in the same location. Some people even find it easier to park the vehicle in the same spot where they parked it before selling it. If you are selling a vehicle in an area that isn't typically thought to be used for this purpose, you might find that you aren't able to find any buyers within the surrounding areas. On the other hand, if you take the time to advertise your old vehicle in the right places, you can get lots of traffic from nearby areas, as well.cash for cars north brisbane
ReplyDeleteAnother important reason why you should sell cash is because of tax benefits. It is true that the Government offers tax benefits for those who want to get rid of their old vehicles, but you may not know how it benefits you. You may not even be aware of this yourself. Once you sell your old vehicle, you have the opportunity to benefit from all the benefits offered by the Government. This includes receiving an insurance premium reduction, if applicable, as well as a percentage of what your old vehicle was worth.Cash for Scrap Cars Euroa
