Sexy Shifters in the mountains of Quebec.
Meet the Laurentian Mountain Clan’s Alpha family, the Ducharmes. Three brothers–Charles, Thomas, and Henri–and three cousins–Clementine, Michel, and Bertrand–who face shifter rivalries and supernatural forces as they look for love in the French-Canadian mountains.
The Laurentian Mountain Clan fights the neighbouring Trois-Rivières Clan for control of their territory. It will take three mysterious women with untapped abilities to help defeat the rival clan and their supernatural allies–and bring true love to three brothers. When the Clan expands to the West they uncover a drug smuggling and human trafficking operation in their new territory. The cousins join forces with bear shifters and local law enforcement and find love along the way.
Heart’s Ease
Book 1 begins with a rival shifter pack, Trois-Rivières Clan, attacking women on Laurentian Clan territory. The pack’s Alpha, Charles, meets Chantelle when she is attacked near his grandmother’s house. Charles and Chantelle discover René Renard, the son of the Alpha for Trois-Rivières, is seeking revenge against them for a tragic event from ten years ago. When Charles and Chantelle uncover a shared suppressed memory it leads them to René and the Trois-Rivières Clan. However, before René is stopped he tells them his pack is involved in a bigger plot to defeat Charles’s clan and his father will avenge his capture.
The male protagonist is the oldest brother, Charles, whose Fated Mate is Chantelle, an artist who lives in a nearby village. Chantelle is a Fae/Mage who discovers her powers and strengthens Charles so together they become the heart and soul of the community.
Mind’s Peace
Book 2 begins with the Alpha from the Trois-Rivières Clan seeking revenge on the Laurentian Clan for capturing his son in Book 1. Charles’s brother Thomas meets his Fated Mate Lisette when he goes to Montreal to seek information about the supernaturals who are allied with the rival pack; a group of ancient, evil sorcerers is stealing women and children for their psychic energy and plans to destroy the shifters and take over both clan’s lands. Lisette was orphaned as a child, lives with her foster-brother Antoine, and works at the university library as an archivist. The pair returns to the clan compound after the sorcerers destroy Lisette’s apartment and try to steal documents owned by Lisette but connected to the mystery. Lisette helps Thomas’s pack locate the sorcerers and destroy their mountain lair. At the end of the second book the Laurentian Clan defeats the Trois-Rivieres Clan but the supernaturals escape to return in the third book.
The male protagonist is Thomas, the middle brother, who is good with numbers and logic and who also understands the importance of working for the good of others. The heroine, Lisette, is a Chronicler/Priestess, who tempers Thomas’s intellectual side so that together they can be the mind and conscience of the community.
Body’s Rest
Book 3 begins with the pack regrouping and trying to find their foes, who are first hiding and then flee their territory as the pack approaches. Henri, the youngest brother of the Alpha, works with his long-time crush Juana, their Pack Protector, to pursue the supernaturals. They infiltrate a shifter clan on the West Coast in the Rocky Mountains, where the sorcerers have started preying on the vulnerable again. Henri challenges the rival clan’s Alpha and wins, expanding Laurentian Clan’s control and opening up a new territory for the story to continue in future books. When they locate their enemies, it will take all three couples working together to defeat them.
The male protagonist is Henri, the youngest brother, who is fun and has a lighter side. The heroine is a Warrior – the pack’s Protector, Juana – who helps him mature and take on a leadership role. Together they are the strength of the community but temper it with compassion and understanding for others.

Sexy Shifter and Mysterious Mage
I have always loved Paranormal Romance and Urban Fantasy.
Shifters and vampires are my jam.
My all-time favourite authors are Faith Hunter, Ilona Andrews, Nalini Singh, and more recently Richelle Mead. I like sassy heroines who are independent but find a strong hero who can keep up with them and treasure them for their uniqueness–including their many flaws!
