Guest post with Giveaway: The Only Defense Against a Werewolf? By Terry Spear

First off, why in the world would you want to defend yourself against an incredibly hunky werewolf? I say, let your wild side out and…join ‘em!

They’re sexy, protective, a little territorial, a little on the wild side, and mate for life.
What more can you want?

But I actually stopped by to talk some about another sexy hunk of a shifter—jaguars.

They have a lot of the same characteristics. They’re protective, territorial, a predator, hunt at night and in the early morning hours, but they’re not as sociable as in wolves having a family unit they take care of. They also love to swim, just like wolves.

In SAVAGE HUNGER, Maya and Connor Anderson are twins, and they have stuck together. She’s ever hopeful they’ll have mates. But the problem is, jaguars are rare, and jaguar shifters even rarer.

Have you ever met one? Probably not. Werewolves are not quite as rare and you’ve probably come across more than one during your lifetime and didn’t even know it. 🙂

But here’s a rule to stick by if you run into a jaguar. Don’t run. Big cats LOVE to chase. Of course if you’re hoping that hunky jaguar shifter chases after you, and you’re looking for a little wild fun, by all means, RUN.

Actually, wolves love to chase also. So same thing goes.

You can climb a tree to get out of a wolf’s path if you’re so inclined. But if you climb a tree to get away from a jaguar, he’ll be right up there with you.

The best thing to do with a jaguar is to stand your ground and make a lot of noise. That’s what the experts say. If he’s a shifter, that might not work. He might just kiss you so that you’ll quit making all that racket.

And if you’re agreeable, who knows what it might lead to. So really, I say, it’s time to make a stand. Forget considering what it would take to defend against a shifter and let yourself have some fun. They’re just waiting for you!
