Blurb:
Ramey’s world is shattered when his brother dies
suddenly. He tries to go through the motions, day by agonizing day, doing the
best that he can at his job, but it’s not enough. Months of depression
escalates into alcohol use and drug abuse to numb the pain. For the past year,
he’s been dreading meeting with his lawyer and accepting his brother’s death.
The pain becomes too much to bear and Ramey is caught with cocaine at work and
fired immediately. When he hits rock bottom, he realizes that he’s disrespecting
his brother’s memory and checks himself into rehab with the help of an unlikely
friend.
Londyn’s life is perfect living as a wolf Shifter in
the Pack Lands. He’s been working in the family business and happy living in
his cabin in the woods. Londyn has high expectations for the perfect mate to
make his life complete.
Can Ramey accept his destiny as a Shifter’s mate?
And is his love for the wolf Shifter worth leaving behind the demons and the
only world he’s ever known?

Excerpt:
“It pleases me that you want to see my wolf so bad.
Have a seat on that fallen log by the fire and watch the master at work.” Ramey
took a seat as instructed and watched Londyn prepare for his shift. Londyn
removed his clothing piece by maddening piece. It was a slow strip tease set to
the music of the forest and Ramey swore all the blood left his body and pooled
into his cock. Londyn’s body was absolutely lickable. He had definition in his
lean muscles, his chest was smooth and hairless with pale pink nipples that
Ramey couldn’t help but drool over. His back and legs had corded muscles and
fine blond hair covered his legs and groin. Except for a few old scars, the man
didn’t have a mark on him. No blemishes, birthmarks or tattoos and given his
age it was odd that he didn’t have at least one. Ramey had never been with a
man who didn’t have any ink. And the ass on his boyfriend. He had won the
lottery ten times over. He had to sit on his hands to keep from reaching out
and when he turned around, he caught Ramey ogling his mate.
“Hey, eyes are up here, sir.”
“I’m sorry, it’s just that—”
“Nah, just messing with you. I like your eyes on
me.” Londyn’s own blues were dark with heat proving that Londyn was just as
turned on as Ramey was by the show. It wasn’t just Londyn’s eyes giving away
his arousal either.
About the
author:
Tina is a retired Air Force brat and has lived in
several states as well as a handful of countries. She has always had a soft
spot for literature and is a voracious reader. When she isn't writing, she can
be found cuddled up with a good book. Though Tina adores a thrilling novel with
sappy lovesick heroes, she is terrified of things that go bump in the night.
This makes for quite a complicated relationship with zombies, something that
she just can't get enough of.

Wicked Faeries - What is one thing you’ll probably never include in your books?
Tina Blenke - Hmm, never say never right? I would probably
never include any religious references or iconography in my stories. I have my
own personal beliefs that others might not share so I think it’s best to leave
those out of my own stories. I know other paranormal stories are chock full of
religious paraphernalia in one form or another and I’m choosing not to do that
in my own.
WF - What’s the last movie that you saw in the theater?
TB - You know, I used to go to the movies all the
time, especially growing up we went to the movies at least once a week. But
now? Not so much. Maybe it’s the invention of wonderful things like Netflix but
I find that I stay home much more to veg out on hours’ worth of cinematic
goodness. That being said, I think the last movie I saw was Captain America’s
Winter Soldier so it’s been a while.
WF - What book can you not live without? Could be your own or another
author’s.
TB - This is a really hard one! I’m going to cheat a
little bit here and say it would have to be the complete works of Shakespeare.
I’ve been in love with the bard’s prose since Romeo and Juliet when I was
really little and all of his works can keep me busy for a bit.
WF - What genre have you wanted to write in but haven’t yet? Do you have any
plans to write in that genre in the future?
TB - I’ve dabbled a bit in contemporary and it’s possible that
this could be something that comes out sooner rather than later so maybe that
doesn’t count.
I’ve also dabbled in M/F short stories and let’s just say
that didn’t end well so I don’t think we have to worry about that venue…ever.
I just might get serious about YA LGBT romance
though. It’s something that I’ve thought about and I’m not sure if I’ll ever
venture there, but at the moment, let’s leave it as a definite maybe.
WF - What’s up next for you regarding your books and writing?
TB - I’m currently writing the next installment for the Shifting
Paradigm that is even darker than Shifting Cargo. We’re dealing more with
conflict between Shifters and Changeless and this might drift over into a fifth
book as well. I’m enjoying the series so I’m following the lead from Eric and
Jason.
I’m also working on another novel, as hinted
above, that’s contemporary and full of angst that I’m surprised to find leaking
out of my writing pores. It’s quite a bit finished so it should be ready for
submission within the next couple of months.
