Things don't add up as an accident, yet the sheriff's office seems to be acting as if it is an everyday event.  Later that night his sister's cat, Lucifer gets out and attacks a beautiful silver wolf and amazingly seems to win.  Dane brings the unconscious wolf home to treat it.  He keeps an eye on it through the night and suddenly where once there was a wolf in the cage is unexpectedly a gorgeous woman, a gorgeous naked blond woman.Vanessa could not believe this had happened to her a homicidal house cat had brought her down.  Even now it sat outside the cage trying to get to her.  Her allergies were going to be the death of her yet, literally.  She could barely breathe not to mention a human had found her and  now knew about lycans.  Jordan was going to be so mad, at best he might ask her to leave, at worst he would kill her and the human to protect the pack.  Meds, she needed meds or Jordan wouldn't have to killer her.  This was all Jordan's fault anyway for sending her out when he knew how her allergies were.Now someone was out to make the lycan species extinct, the alpha female was missing and Vanessa's mate was a human.  Could life get any more complicated?  Yes the killer decided Vanessa needs to be eliminated next.Humor runs throughout this story, as does suspense and romance.  As unusual a paranormal romance Past My Defenses is I still found it to be an absorbing story I have read in a long time.  I was laughing out loud as poor Vanessa and Dane got to know each other and Dane worked his way around the minefield of her numerous allergies.  I especially thought it was hilarious how everyone keeps asking if he knows she is allergic to marshmallows like he is insane to get involved with someone so freakish.  Dane even memorizes the two pages of allergies to ensure to avoid them.  Now that is true love.  I sincerely hope there will be more from Wendy Sparrow in her Taming the pack series.  If so I hope Jordan will be next in line to find his pack, or if possible, maybe Travis.  There is definitely more to these two than what meets the eye.Wendy Sparrow is a new author for me, but I can see her becoming an author I will be following closely.  Pick up a copy of Past My Defenses and enjoy yourself beyond belief.
