Becoming the mate of Adam Hauptman—the charismatic Alpha of the local werewolf pack—has made her a stepmother to his daughter Jesse, a relationship that brings moments of blissful normalcy to Mercy’s life. But on the edges of humanity, what passes for a minor mishap on an ordinary day can turn into so much more.
After an accident in bumper-to-bumper traffic, Mercy and Jesse can’t reach Adam—or anyone else in the pack for that matter. They’ve all been abducted.
Through their mating bond, all Mercy knows is that Adam is angry and in pain. With the werewolves fighting a political battle to gain acceptance from the public, Mercy fears Adam’s disappearance may be related—and that he and the pack are in serious danger. Outclassed and on her own, Mercy may be forced to seek assistance from any ally she can get, no matter how unlikely.

Now sequestered in Angola Prison as a "spiritual advisor," Ivak is finding all these centuries of celibacy depressing, to say the least. But then, along comes southern belle Gabrielle Sonnier. Is she a reward for his good deeds, or a temptation sent to rattle his lustsome brain?
Gabrielle, a lawyer, begs Ivak to help get her brother out of prison. Aided by the Cajun LeDeux family and their chief looney bird, Tante Lulu, Ivak reluctantly agrees. And while he alternately tries to seduce and save Gabrielle before the Lucipires run rampant, they both begin to wonder if it's really only lust, or something more.

Tracking Santa
Santa Claus Tracking!
Tracking Santa Claus has never been more fun! Yep, the big guy is certainly busy this time of year. All those toys do not make themselves and the North Pole is still producing an estimated 500 billion toys per year. That's a lot of toys for all the boys and girls in the world. No child should be missed in this joyous time of year. So let's make sure the letters to Santa keep flowing!! We also know how technology has enabled us to view Santa's route first hand. This is the story behind the Norad tracking. In 1955, before the internet was around a Sears store in Colorado made a huge mistake. They misprinted a phone for a line that they had set up for kids to call Santa Claus. The number that was printed was actually the phone number to a commander to the precurser to the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD). Well, it turned out that this guy was a pretty cool guy. He had instructed his staff to accept these calls and keep the kids updated on Santa's route and traveling progress from the North Pole.
NORAD has helped kids track Santa Claus ever since. Now we have GOOGLE giant GOOGLE EARTH involved too! In 2007 the brilliant minds of Google joined with NORAD to track Kris Kringle in 3D!! How amazing. First thing you have to do is download Google Earth.. it's free!! You can track Santa Claus without it, but if you want to see him in 3D greatness you will have to have Google Earth. Just imagine what a thrill it could be for kids of all ages to see a three dimensional sleigh ride as you ride shot-gun with Santa via Google Earth.
First thing, go to earth.google.com and download Google Earth.
Those who use Google Earth (you must install the Earth plug-in) can follow Santa's location in 3D, which was done with a neat technical trick in which Google puts Earth inside a Web page. Google Maps mobile application users may track Santa from their iPhones and Android handsets.
Two: Go to noradsanta.org anytime after December 1st.
You can also add the NORAD tracks Santa gadget to your personalized igoogle page: labpixies.com.
Bruno Bowden shares the story of NORAD's Santa tracker -- and how Google is continuing the traditional holiday fun.
