Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no question that the dog inhabits a singular position in relation to humans, a position no other animal occupies. But where did this extraordinary bond originate, and what distinguishes it from the way we feel about other animals? And why is it that humans are as important to dogs as they are to us? Jon Franklin set out to find out and ended up spending a decade studying the origins and significance of the dog and its peculiar attachment to humans. As the intellectual pursuit of his subject began to take over Franklin's life, he married a dog lover and was quickly introduced to the ancient and powerful law of nature, to wit: Love me, love my dog. Soon Franklin was sharing hearth and home with a soulful and clever poodle named Charlie. And so began an odyssey, from a 12,000-year-old grave to a conclusion so remarkable as to change our perception of ourselves. Building on evolutionary science, archaeology, behavioral science, and the firsthand experience of watching his own dog evolve from puppy to family member, Franklin posits that man and dog are more than just inseparable; they are part and parcel of the same creature. Along the way, The Wolf in the Parlor imparts a substantial yet painless education on subjects as far-ranging as psychological evolution and neurochemistry. In this groundbreaking book, master storyteller Franklin shatters the lens through which we see the world and shows us an unexpected, enthralling picture of the human/canine relationship.

Book excerpt: A man and puppy exhumed from a 12,000-year-old grave sends a two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning science writer on a journey to the dogs Of all the things hidden in plain sight, dogs are one of the most enigmatic. They are everywhere but how much do we really know about where they came from and what the implications are of their place in our world? Jon Franklin set out to find out and ended up spending a decade studying the origins and significance of the dog and its peculiar attachment to humans.

Book excerpt: The first three books in The Wolf's Den series are now together in print. Marked Chloe Bryant doesn't know what to expect when she enters The Wolf's Den. Drawn to the werewolf tattoo parlor for reasons she can't explain, she soon discovers the sexy man from her dreams isn't a figment of her imagination. Not only is Jackson Donovan real, but he explains the dreams they shared are due to their destined mating. It can't be possible. She's not a werewolf. Even if he swears the mark on her wrist indicates otherwise. Jackson is stunned to discover the beautiful minx from his dreams isn't a full-blooded werewolf but a Halfling. The only way to uncover Chloe's past is to stake a claim to her future. By taking the delectable female into his bed, he'll unlock every secret she has to hide -- as well as awaken the passion she's tucked away for too long -- by exploring her mind, body and soul one sweet inch at a time. Changed Beta werewolf Declan Schroder knows Rachel Gentry is his mate. The hard-as-nails female is more than he could ask for-intense, clever and sexy as sin. There's only one problem. Rachel is human and fears his kind. She's receptive to his advances-their sexual chemistry is impossible to deny-until an attack by a rogue werewolf threatens to destroy their newfound bond. As Declan's mating heat rises, he knows he'll do whatever it takes to claim Rachel as his own. To keep her he'll have to love her from dusk to dawn, introducing her to pleasures she's never known. Loving a big, bad wolf is wicked and dangerous, but not in the way she's bound to regret. Sought Shane Heyward left everything behind to find his mate. He struggled for months, following his wolf to her location, guided to a place where supernatural beings exist and thrive-Atrum Hill. Despite being capable of leading his own pack, he chose to join one. When he finds his mate by accident, he's shaken by the truth. Not only is she blind, the wolf within her is completely feral. If he can't help her take control of the beast, she'll have to be destroyed. Luna Lowe was forced to leave her previous pack after she shifted, attacked, and almost killed two members-one of which was her sister. She's ashamed of her behavior, wondering if death is preferable to living alone, when the male she believed abandoned her due to her lack of sight arrives. As Shane and Luna come together, he learns her history. His female was wronged, and the insult has to be dealt with swiftly and harshly. As he takes charge and seeks retribution, reverting to his Alpha nature, everything will change-for both of them.

The only person who has ever truly understood fourteen-year-old June Elbus is her uncle, the renowned painter Finn Weiss.

At the funeral, June notices a strange man lingering just beyond the crowd. A few days later, she receives a package in the mail containing a beautiful teapot she recognizes from Finn’s apartment, and a note from Toby, the stranger, asking for an opportunity to meet.
