Welcome to Hunky Alpha Wednesday. Today we have Erin Moore and her Hunky Alpha Takshilim Nah-Kah-Yen from:
Excerpt:
Tak watched her walk away without a backward glance at him, wondering at the unexpected pain of seeing her angry. He hadn’t exactly lied to her: communing with the gods tomorrow would require a clear head. But he couldn’t tell her about the vow; it would lose its power. He adjusted himself, trying to get comfortable again, to think about anything other than her legs spread for him in the truck.
He’d never had a problem respecting his vow before, not in the two years since he’d made it. Some part of him hoped that her quest would lead her away from him and his tribe. Every time he touched her he felt as if a little part of himself were being carved away, as if he were being slowly melded into something that he no longer understood. He couldn’t afford to lose control over his emotions, and especially not with someone like her.
What Madeleine could never understand was, he would never forget where he belonged, no matter how much he may have wanted to.
What is your favorite drink?
Rum and coke, easy on the ice.But I don’t usually drink.
Favorite Food?
My mom’s acorn cakes. Nobody makes them like she did.
Best Date?
With Madeleine. Her spirit journey in the desert was the deepest experience I’ve ever shared with anyone.
Worst Date?
Oh, jeez. I went out with this girl once because my dad asked me to. She was looking around the restaurant the whole time and checking her phone. I never called her again.
What do you notice first in a woman?
Her ass. I mean, her eyes.
What is your biggest pet peeve with women?
Too much primping. Just come out, be yourself.
Use three words to describe yourself.
Quiet. Resourceful. Untamed.
If you could meet anyone who would it be?
Geronimo. He spent twenty-seven years of his life in captivity. On his deathbed he said he wished he should have never surrendered.
What is one secret that you don’t want people to know about you?
I like bubble baths.
Blurb:
A Shaman’s temptation could be the undoing of his people…
Madeleine Greenway, perfectionist and analyst for Surety Bank, has no place in her rigidly organized life for something as unpredictable as a man, much less a Native American shaman. Sent to the White Mountain reservation to help the tribe finance its new casino, she meets Tak, a proud, beautiful Apache, and finds herself surrounded by something magical in the Arizona desert. His touch becomes a passport to otherworldly bliss, and the strange coyote she sees makes her question what’s real. But it’s the amazing sex with Tak that makes Madeleine lose sight of her goal—to guarantee that Surety Bank’s investment in the casino won’t fail.
Last in a long line of shaman shape-shifters, Tak Nah-Kah-Yen has sworn a vow of celibacy to his gods. But Madeleine’s lithe body and honeyed lips compel him to forswear his pledge, claiming her for his own. His passion for her overshadows his link to his gods at a time when he most needs their help. Desperate to find funding for the casino and lift his people out of poverty, he’d accepted start-up money from less than savory sources who are willing to kill to guarantee their profit—the profit Madeleine’s bank jeopardizes…
