I Kissed a Dog

Back Cover Blurb - I Kissed
A Dog

Chloe Carpenter isn't like other women. She can communicate
with animals, a gift she unwrapped following one of her frequent dances with
death.
By day, Chloe works at the Plum Beach Wildlife Park where her unique talents
nurture the animals in her care. Her quiet existence is shattered when a new
male veterinarian roars into the park and sets his golden gaze on her. If Chloe
had her way, he'd roar right back out.
Problem: He's her new coworker and he's saved her life twice in the
past twenty-four hours.
Zane
Marshall, Enforcer for the Pacific Pack of purebred werewolves, has a
job to do - figure out who or what is mutilating the young men of Plum Beach.
With orders to find the woman who talks to animals, he accepts a position
working alongside the fiery Chloe Carpenter, a female who ignites his interest
and gives passionate meaning to his empty existence.
Problem: She despises him.
Together, they're forced to unravel a mystery of supernatural proportions, a
murderous plot with eternal implications. In the process they discover
opposites really do attract.
Major Problem: Zane is pledged to
another woman, and she'll do anything to
keep him from Chloe.

Like most
authors, Carol Van Atta is no stranger to the written word. She penned a short
novel at age 12 (somewhat frightening illustrations included) and had a
creative writing piece published in her high school newspaper. Devouring books
from numerous genres, she developed a deep thirst for more reading materials,
and could almost always be found with her nose in a book.

She has
contributed to several, popular inspirational anthologies and devotional books,
and lives in the rainy wetlands of Oregon with her terrifying teens and a small
zoo of animals. She is taking an undetermined hiatus away from inspirational
writing to delve into her darker side. It’s been rumored this genre-jumping
occurred after Carol discovered two suspicious red marks on her neck, and
experienced an unquenchable urge to howl at the moon.
