the Heart of the Jaguar Series—Tammy is searching for a missing jaguar from the Oregon Zoo, and is paired up with David, that she has to get out of jail— which he assures her was all part of the plan. After that, A Hero of a Highland Wolf releases in August 2014 —Grant is friends with the MacNeills from the previous Highland wolf books, but he’s got real troubles. An American she-wolf has inherited the castle that he and his family have managed forever, and he’s not pleased with the notion she’s coming there for a year to tell him how to run the properties. She totally turns his world upside down. And then the 3rd book in the Heart of the Jaguar series is coming out. For Christmas 2014 , A Highland Wolf Christmas and we’re back to the Highland wolves and the last brothers there to find his mate. Calla dumped her fiancé at the altar in A Highland Werewolf Wedding, and now the party planner is in charge of planning the Christmas celebration for the MacNeills…but Guthrie is totally distracting her—is it just a case of rebound? Or is this the right Highland wolf for her this time? What was the hardest part of writing your book? This was one of those books that I couldn’t stop writing. I LOVE it when that happens. One scene flows into the next. The hardest part was getting to the end, turning it in, and my scheduler telling me I was supposed to turn in Jaguar Fever first. What do you hope readers take with them after reading one of your stories? I love to photograph, so every time something interesting presents itself, a blue, blue dragonfly sitting on crepe myrtle flowers eating aphids, or a hole in the storm clouds stretching up to the blue heavens above, or a wolf discovering a box of treats at a wolf park and then racing off with it, or a leopard tackling another, I capture them. I love to create award-winning teddy bears that have found homes all over the world. Hiking, swimming, and watching adventure movies, and of course, reading are wonderful pastimes too! USA TODAY bestselling, and award-winning author and creator of award-winning teddy bears who have found homes all over the world including Australia, Switzerland, China, and Russia. I am a retired officer of the US Army Reserves. I love to plant trees and flowers and if I could, I’d turn all the deserts green. Time travels are my favorite read, although I love to read most anything, and the Bourne series, Romancing the Stone, Sixth Sense, Legend, The Princess Bride, Stardust, Inkheart, LOTR, and tons of other movies are my favorites. I hope that they entertain and I always try to add new information about wolves or jaguars, or human nature that readers can enjoy learning about. And that the characters are real, with real pains, and emotions, and needs. That readers will enjoy the journey while the characters are struggling to solve the mysteries and reach their happily ever after. I love to research, to make urban fantasy worlds real, to bring a little of the paranormal into our world. Even in “Winning the Highlander’s Heart” the heroine feels she is cursed and she has second sight. But I try to do it in a way that feels real, and not fantasized. :) Currently, I’m working on book 2 of the new jaguar shifter series, but still am working on wolf book number 12 and 13! So more hunky wolves to come! A SEAL in Wolf’s Clothing has just released. When not writing, how do you relax? http://www.terryspear.com December 2013 | 13
