Seeing The World Through
The Eyes Of The Author
One Page At A Time.
A reluctant werewolf, the man who turned her, and the prophecy that brought them together. Volatile Wisconsin werewolves wrestle with messy emotions and Norse mythological forces in this paranormal romance.
Thea never thought accepting a date with the office hottie would wind up with her being turned into a werewolf. After months of struggle and unmasked rage, she’s finally ready to step back into her human life. She’s absolutely done with having to rely on him, and she never wants to see him again.
Syver has been a werewolf for most of his life, and he’s been well in control of his wolf side for years. When he accidentally turns Thea in a moment of passion, he accepts that she’s angry with him. The only thing he can do is teach her what she needs to know about being a mánagarmr and the forces of nature they embody.
Despite everything he’s done to her, Thea still can’t resist Syver’s touch, and his knowledge of that fact makes him unbearably arrogant. Syver can’t seem to think straight or control himself whenever Thea is around, putting them both in danger.
Can these two werewolves learn to control the chaos within them before someone ends up dead?
His body flushed as his stomach threatened to expel the dinner he hadn’t eaten. Pain shot through him, and he started to sweat, a hot flash heating his blood. He recognized the inevitable signs of an emotional transformation, so he didn’t fight it.
A strangled grunt escaped him instead of the scream inside his head. He doubled over. His bones melted while his skin itched.
He tried to let go of his human thoughts. This was who he needed to be right now. This was who he was. Sorrow, rage, and an unnamable drive mingled with the agony of breaking bones and tearing muscles.
But after one anguished minute, it was over. He didn’t think about what to do; he didn’t need to. Wiggling out of his clothes, he ran through the still-open back door.
The night felt warmer with his fur coat. The nighttime creatures fled before him, instinct telling them to get out of the way.
He was quick, as fast as any coyote, while he streaked through the woods and into the tall crops of the surrounding farms. He could hear the farm dogs barking in his wake, but he paid them little mind. He would be gone before the farmers even knew he was there.
The summer was dying, and he could smell the fruit of the fields ripening. But the ground was still warm beneath his paws.
Normally, this was enough—to be wild, to catch a scent and take down a wolf’s natural prey. The thrill of the hunt, the chase, the pursuit of something he would eventually catch, it was the best part of being a mánagarmr.
But not tonight. The freedom of shedding his humanity didn’t quite stick. He could still feel his sorrow, his rage, his confusion.
D. Lieber has done it again, crafting a fantastic new tale, Bitten by the North Wind. From the very first page, it will sweep you off your feet. The story centers on Thea and Syver, beginning with their initial encounter and his transformation of her into a werewolf. Thea is furious about what he has done, feeling completely outraged.
Her anger toward him is so intense that she wants nothing to do with him; however, her inner werewolf has different plans. Thea desires solitude to live her life as she wishes. The two cannot be near each other without igniting a fiery tension.
Syver has lived as a werewolf for most of his life, having been transformed at a young age. He insists that he accidentally turned Thea during their first encounter, but is that the whole truth? After being a werewolf for so long, he must have learned to control his wolf by now.
Bitten by the North Wind captivated me from start to finish, with no dull moments to be found. Once I started reading, I couldn't stop because I was eager to uncover everything about the mánagarmr. I enjoyed following Thea and Syver on their adventure, wondering how their bond and lives would unfold. I needed to know whether they would end up as soulmates.
Bitten by the North Wind is filled with suspense, keeping me on the edge of my seat as I hurried to see how the story would resolve. I appreciated the world-building and would love to explore this universe more.
I highly recommend picking up a copy of Bitten by the North Wind today for another thrilling werewolf journey!
D. Lieber has a wanderlust that would make a butterfly envious. When she isn’t planning her next physical adventure, she’s recklessly jumping from one fictional world to another. Her love of reading led her to earn a Bachelor’s in English from Wright State University.
Beyond her skeptic and slightly pessimistic mind, Lieber wants to believe. She has been many places—from Canada to England, France to Italy, Germany to Russia—believing that a better world comes from putting a face on “other.” She is a romantic idealist at heart, always fighting to keep her feet on the ground and her head in the clouds.
Lieber lives in Wisconsin with her husband (John) and cats (Yin and Nox).

Blurb:
A supernatural bond. A heartrending betrayal. Can a werewolf guardian resist forbidden urges before she loses everything?
Werewolf Runa was raised with one purpose: to protect her chosen faeling from bloodthirsty vampires. But when tragedy shattered her plans, she was forced to protect a different fae, Mikhail, who makes her every day a living hell.
Konner was gutted by Runa’s betrayal. Despite needing a werewolf’s protection before his fae magic awakens, he refuses to accept any other bondmate, even if it could cost him a painful and terrifying death.
When Mikhail throws her away, she’s desperate. If she can’t complete her rite, she will be banished from everything she has ever known. Her only chance is if Konner accepts her bond.
But returning to her intended bondmate becomes much more complicated when forbidden thoughts and urges arise within her. Giving in would cost Konner his magic, Runa her place in the pack, or worse: both their lives.

Praise:
Intended Bondmates is not the first book by D. Lieber that I have read and it won’t be the last. Each book just seems to get better and better. If I had to choose which one was my favorite I don’t think I could as I loved each and everyone in a different way.
The one reason I loved Intended Bondmates so much is the fact that it has more than one paranormal creature. It has werewolves, vampires, and fae. Intended Bondmates tells the story of two wonderfully created characters, Runa and Konner. In their world, the world of Intended Fates werewolves is bonded with the fae. Werewolves like Runa are bonded with faeling to protect them from bloodthirsty vampires until their magic is awakened.
Runa’s story is a sad one. Runa and Konner have had a thing for each other for many years but when her time came to bond with a faeling she bonded to another because she felt that she owned Mikhail and his family debt for taking her in when she needed someone to care for her.
After being bonded with Mikhail for many years he has finally decided to unbind with her early. Runa and Mikhail never got along but she never expected this. Runa was afraid after their unbinding as she had no idea what she was going to do.
But luckily Konner agrees to bond with her. Sparks start to fly once again between Runa and Konner. Things could turn bad for Runa and Konner at this stage as bondmates can not have a relationship with each other. Having a relationship would cost Konner his magic, Runa her place in the pack, or worse: both their lives.
Intended Bondmates grabbed me from the first page. Once I picked it up there was no way I could lay it down again until I had read that last page. The descriptions were so vividly written I could see each and every scene as it happened, playing out in my head. I sorely love the world that was created for Intended Fates and can’t wait for more of it. The twists just kept coming page after page.
I highly recommend Intended Bondmates to all werewolves, vampires, fae, and magic fans out there in the paranormal world! Grab your copy of Intended Bondmates today and step into this magical world!
