Product Description
HIGH VOLTAGE - CALISTA FOX Lightning crackles all around Serena Lamond in the worst electrical storm she’s ever seen. If only she’d stayed in town instead of braving the dark country roads back to her isolated home. But no, with her usual stubborn independence, she’d had to set off in her pickup despite the elements. And now it seems almost as if the lightning is aiming for her, taunting her, forcing her to careen ever more treacherously down the dark road. Suddenly, a flash of green pierces the darkness just moments before Serena hits the animal that jumps in front of her truck. Is that her neighbor’s dog? She can hardly see it in the fierce rain, but she can feel its thick fur as she hefts its injured body into the back of her pickup truck. A shudder ripples through the dog’s body, but at least it’s still alive. But when she finally makes it home safe, there’s no dog in her pickup. There’s a man. A naked man. And the air between them crackles as if the lightning had never stopped….

4.5 blue ribbons from Romance Junkies August 31, 2008
A nasty scandal has New Yorker Serena Lamond on a self-imposed exile in Silver, Wyoming. After four straight days of rain, she's running low on provisions - namely wine (well it is a necessity, isn't it?) and decides to brave the weather to head into town to pick some up.
The weather has her a bit freaked out. The continuous rain, unbelievably loud thunder and streaks of lightning are unnerving and she's concentrating on getting herself home in one piece - preferably without any encountering any wildlife. She's heard tales about a local woman who'd run over a wild boar late one night and she's determined to avoid that sort of predicament.
As the storm seems to close in around her, she experiences a bizarre sensation that somehow seems directly related to the storm and the next thing she knows there're glowing green eyes piercing the darkness and she feels the impact as her truck hits an animal which she assumes is one of her neighbor's dogs.
She can't leave an injured dog behind and so she loads him into the bed of her truck, only once she arrives home there's a naked man where the dog should be. Serena's beginning to think she's losing her mind but the man is too sexy to resist. After questioning him, she discovers that he's Garrett Slater, the owner of a good portion of the town. What she doesn't know is he's the leader of a local pack of wolves and he has every intention of claiming her for his mate. He promises her that he'll protect her at all costs, but will he be able to keep his word and keep a rival pack who've decided that Serena belongs to their obnoxious leader?
HIGH VOLTAGE is an intense story from beginning to end. I was fascinated by the correlation between the lightning and wolf mating. It certainly makes storms much more exciting then I'd ever imagined them to be. Serena may be a `city girl' but she's basically an innocent young woman who deserves a bit of happiness in her life. Garrett is perfect for her, and let's face it, he's sexy as hell, but he survives in two worlds - human and werewolves, accepting that werewolves are fact and not fiction isn't going to be easy for her.
