Here’s more
about Bitten by a Hellcat, including an excerpt from this paranormal romance book.

Felicity Heaton

The sole remaining member of the most famous shifter hunter family in history,
Owen Nightingale is a mercenary and a man with a secret held in his closely
guarded heart, but when a beautiful rare shifter catches his eye and offers him
a job, he has the feeling he’ll be the one paying for helping her—with his
heart.

Cait is in a spot of trouble with a capital
T. A male hellcat has set his sights on claiming her and she’s one kitty who
doesn’t want a collar. When she meets a dark, alluring and mysterious hunter,
she sees a chance to rid herself of the male, but the price Owen sets and the
fierce passion that burns white-hot between them lures her dangerously under
his seductive spell.
Can Owen discover the true intent of the
male hellcat and stop Cait from falling into his hands? And can Cait retain
control as the heat of desire burns between her and Owen, or will a reckless
moment seal both of their fates forever?

“I don’t go into
things blind. I need more information. I think we should go somewhere quieter
to discuss the job and so you can fill me in on everything you know… maybe away
from your admirer.” Owen took his drink and smiled at her, raising the glass at
the same time, hoping the male was still watching them.
If luck was with
him, Marius wouldn’t know who he was and would think he was just another mortal
in the bar flirting with Cait. A harmless male looking for a good time.
He instantly
hardened in his black jeans, his body issuing a painful reminder that it wasn’t
wholly a lie. He was looking for a good time with Cait. Her flirting had revved
him up, filling his head with thoughts of finding a dark corner and making out
with her.
Okay, making out
was a little too innocent sounding for what he had in mind, but it had been a
while since he had been as attracted to someone as he was to her. Heck, he
wasn’t sure he had ever been this attracted to anyone. He had always kept his
dalliances short and sweet, a periodic scratching of a biological itch, but
something about Cait had him firing on all cylinders and thinking in terms
longer than a single hot and heavy moment.
He was thinking in
terms longer than multiple hot and heavy moments. Nights were involved. Many of
them. As many as she would give him.
More than they
might have together when working on her job.
He emptied his
glass to kill that thought with the alcohol and set it back down on the bar.
“Where do you want
to go?” She sipped her drink, a genuine smile playing on her lips and the fire
back in her eyes. It sent a bolt of hot lust through him again and he grimaced
and shifted on his seat, trying to get more comfortable as his jeans pinched
his groin.
“My place.” It
came out a little harder and more demanding, and definitely more hungry than he
had intended.
Her eyes widened a
fraction before narrowing on his and filling with dark desire that left him in
no doubt she was thinking wicked things too, her mind leaping forwards to
picture what awaited her at his place.
Owen ground his
teeth and shot for professional. “We can discuss the job further there and
you’ll be safe, off the radar of your male.”
“He’s not my
male.” She leaned towards him and he leaned back, cursing himself when her
smile faded and her gaze lost its heat and hunger. She bounced back, taking
another swig of her drink and smiling again. “We can go to your place. I’m
intrigued. I want to know what a hunter’s home looks like.”
Owen grimaced for
a different reason as he pictured it in his head and realised he was about to
make a heck of a poor impression.
He took a small
silver glass vial from his bag, tipped half of the contents into his empty glass,
and knocked it back. The alcohol haze instantly evaporated, leaving his head
clear. He always had loved this particular elixir. Tipsy to sober in a
heartbeat. A weapon that should be in any good hunter’s arsenal and one that
had saved his life a few times. There were plenty of demons and fae out there
who saw a drunk hunter and figured it was a good time to take them out of
action. His little elixir solved that problem for him. One swift chug and he
was fighting fit and it was the opportunistic non-human who was taken out of
action by him.
He turned and
looked over his left shoulder, along the bar, searching for Kyter. The
sandy-haired shifter was nowhere to be seen but the big silver-haired male who
worked behind the bar with Kyter noticed him and strolled towards him.
When the man
reached him, Owen said, “Can we slip out the back?”
The bartender
looked between him and Cait, a dark edge to his eyes as he folded his arms
across his chest, causing the sleeves of his white shirt to stretch tight
across his muscles. Owen had the feeling he was going to say no.
He turned to face
the big shifter. “There’s a male harassing her.”
The bartender’s
stormy eyes shifted back to her and lingered for a moment before he jerked his
chin towards the opposite end of the bar and walked away.
Owen slipped from
his stool, took hold of Cait’s wrist, and led her through the throng around the
bar, using it as cover. He kept low and she did the same, skulking through the
crowd behind him. Her other hand caught hold of his wrist as someone jostled
her and he pulled her closer, looking back to check on her at the same time,
fearing for a moment the male had come after her.
It was just the
normal crush around the bar and the human man who had bumped her muttered an
apology.
Owen stopped at
the end of the bar and peered to his left through a gap in the people there,
making sure that the huge male lurking in the shadows was looking in the wrong
direction before he made a break for the dark door just beyond the bar where
the silver-haired male waited for them.
The man opened the
dark metal door in the black back wall of the club as they swiftly approached
and closed it as soon as they were through.
The brightly lit
cavernous pale room was a contrast to the loud dark main room of the club,
quiet enough that Owen could hear his ears ringing from the assault of the
music and could hear Cait breathing. She turned on the spot, taking everything
in, from the doors that led off the large space to his right to the staircase
against the left wall that led upwards. He headed straight for the exit near
the foot of the stairs that would take them out into a narrow alley behind the
club. His car was parked nearby.
Owen adjusted the
strap of his bag on his shoulder and took hold of Cait’s arm again as he headed
for the back door. It wasn’t the first time he’d had to exit the club this way,
but normally it was because someone had decided to try to claim the glory of
killing him. This was the first time he had left because of a job. It was also
the first time he had left the club with a woman.
A woman he was
intending to take back to his place.
Another first for
him.
His father’s
string of marriages after the death of Owen’s mother had led to Owen keeping a
firm grip on his heart, never allowing anything to happen that might compromise
it. Right at the top of the list of risks he wasn’t willing to take was
bringing a woman back to his place. He looked back over his shoulder at Cait as
he opened the emergency exit door.
She smiled at him,
one that reached her blue eyes and set them alight again, restoring the
confident woman who had caught his eye and had him enraptured.
Bringing her back
to his home felt like a dangerous move. One liable to weaken the barriers he
had constructed to stop himself from falling foul of the same pitfalls as his
father.
It was on the tip
of his tongue to say he had changed his mind and they should go somewhere else
when she shifted closer to him, her other hand coming up in a protective
gesture to hover over her chest. Her eyes darted both ways along the dark alley
and he swore he felt her trembling beneath his fingers.
His need to take
care of her roared back to the fore, vanquishing his fears, and he tugged her
along the alley towards the quiet road at the end of it. He didn’t release her
until he had dug his keys out of his bag, unlocked his small black hatchback,
and had the door open for her. She thanked him with another electric smile that
sent a thousand volts sparking along his nerve endings, setting them alight,
and slipped into the passenger seat.
Owen closed the
door, rounded the compact car and slid into the driver’s seat. He twisted at
the waist and put his bag on the back seat, and then put the key into the
ignition and started the car. The engine growled to life and he flicked the
switch for the lights, checked the road and pulled out. He tugged his seatbelt
on as he drove and glanced across at Cait.
“Buckle up.” He
waited to see she was doing as instructed, tugging the slim black belt across
her chest, before returning his focus to the road.
It was quiet, the
night drawing on, making it easy going as he navigated the short journey deep
into an affluent neighbourhood near the centre of London.
Cait’s eyes grew
wider by the moment as she stared out of the windows, taking in the buildings.
When he drove through large black wrought iron gates, her eyes shot impossibly
wide and she looked across at him. He kept his eyes on the road, unwilling to
field her silent question, slowing the car as he drove through the rows of
beautiful pale townhouses.
He turned left
down another side road where the biggest houses were located and pulled the car
into a reserved parking spot outside his one. Cait was still staring at him. He
turned the engine off, undid his seatbelt, gathered his bag, and stepped out of
the car.
She followed him a
moment later, her eyebrows pinned high on her forehead as she finally looked
away from him, her gaze settling on the huge four storey Georgian townhouse
behind him.
“What you pictured?”
he said before locking the car and turning his back on her. He strode towards
the short black iron gate, opened it and glanced over his shoulder at her.
She hurried
towards him, her eyes flitting between him and the house.
It was too big for
him.
He used the sum
total of five rooms out of the possible fourteen.
“This is yours?”
She spoke at last, her gaze on the white townhouse, slowly drifting up the
height of it.
