Blurb:
How can you repair something that should have been
unbreakable? Darric, Blaze and Conner had been together for centuries, and
their bond, like their love, should have been eternal. Blaze is trying not only
to hold his family together, but stop himself falling apart.
The fragile relationship between the werewolves and
the humans is at risk once more, and the goddess Sirius seems to have deserted
them. Inexplicable changes are taking place to their little omega, and whilst Aden’s
powers are increasing, Conner seems to be losing his.
The terrorist group, The Winter Circle, is getting
bolder and placing everyone in danger. Worse, there is a traitor among them,
perhaps someone a lot closer than they want to admit. Just when Blaze thought
the worst that could have happened is behind them, the traitor is revealed, and
Blaze realizes that their circle is not only broken, but in danger of being
irreparably torn apart.

Excerpt:
Eternal Circle - extracts
According
to legend the goddess Sirius gifted humankind with powerful werewolf shifters,
to bring balance and peace to the planet that both species called home – Earth.
The great
god Orion was pleased with his wife’s final efforts, and the werewolves he
allowed to be created showed such equal amounts of strength and compassion that
humans were awed and showed their gratitude by adding a full five feast days to
their calendar to commemorate them. The days were named after the five oldest
gods: Osiris, Heru, Set, Isis, and Nephthys.
But one
god was jealous. Anubis had worked tirelessly for years weighing the hearts of
the dead for their goodness, and granting the dead passage into heaven or
escorting them to hell. He was incensed that the ungrateful humans didn’t show
him proper homage, and decided to sabotage the plans that Sirius had made.
He
couldn’t stop Sirius’ creation but decided that some of the wolves would be
given the gifts that the dead laid at Anubis’ feet, as a way for them to barter
their fate. These were special attributes, the ones that enabled humans to
navigate their way to hell, and the ones that wolves weren’t naturally born
with.
Anubis
sat back after his efforts and smiled. For every wolf and human born with
strength and compassion, there would be one born with hate, greed, and
jealousy. Some strong, some weak. Mostly the gifts of strength and compassion
would win, but every so often a wolf would find hate, and greed, and grow
strong and powerful with it. Anubis had cunning and had to do this out of sight
of Orion. The great god just had his wife, Sirius, returned to him, and Anubis
could not do anything that would risk his wrath. No, he had to work stealthily,
as if Sirius’ creation had gone bad all on its own and he had no hand in it.
Anubis watched as the gods all agreed there could be no more interference in
human lives and he smiled. His own creations would bring down the werewolves
and they would infect others. Anubis had patience and could wait for those
days, for they would be glorious.
Extract Two
It was stunning. Even though his vision
was black and grey, the world looked sharper, cleaner. Aden felt the soft touch
of Darric’s wolf in his mind, and felt the love swirl around him. The other,
bigger, black Alpha- marked wolf stood beside him, Blaze’s massive head
swinging cautiously to one side, scenting for possible danger. Always on the
lookout, always in full-on protective mode. Aden whined and lowered himself
down. Blaze was making him rest. Memories clawed at him, hurt, and he tried to
push them away. This. This was when Aden felt truly, irrevocably free. As a
wolf he wasn’t small and scarred. Pathetic, abused, and beaten.
He felt a nudge against his side.
Blaze’s wolf came and stood close, gently brushed his snout along the grey fur
on Aden’s round belly protectively. No, that wasn’t fair. He was none of those
things now, even as a human. Aden tucked his paws under him and panted. He knew
Blaze was urging him to go home. They had agreed on the advice of the doctor
that this was the last time he would shift before the baby was born. He’d known
it was a risk, and not something the she-wolves did at all, but this was when
he felt the most connection to his lover.
This was the one time Darric had never
died. The time before that beautiful body had been laid finally to rest and
gone to Sirius. He knew Darric would be with Sirius until it was finally time
for Aden to join him, and it wasn’t as if he was in a rush to die, but these
moments as a wolf were all he had left of his silver-haired, beautiful mate, and
he wanted to hold on for just a few seconds longer.
Sometimes Aden wanted to disappear in
his wolf and never come back.

Today I’m very lucky to be interviewing Victoria
Sue author of Eternal Circle
Hi Victoria, thank you for agreeing to this
interview. Tell us a little about yourself, your background, and your current
book.
1) Describe your book to us.
The
book is the third part of Sirius Wolves following the story of the main four
characters – Blaze, Darric, Conner, and Aden. This book will finish their
story. The next book will focus on some of the other characters mentioned in
the series.
2) Have you ever read something that made
you think differently about your genre? Can you tell us what it was?
I
don’t want to mention titles, but the reason I started liking M/M instead of
M/F was because I think the love was more hard fought for. There are so many
obstacles in society for anyone who walks a different path, and it makes the
story extra special.
3) Tell us about your character’s family
life?
Blaze,
Darric, and Conner were born six hundred years ago in a poor village at the
base of the Himalayas. They were chosen and gifted by the goddess Sirius to
help make a better world. Aden is born with special abilities that he thinks
are just a curse. He is held captive and tortured until his three Alphas rescue
him. His parents were murdered in front of him by the other cruel Alpha for
keeping him hidden.
4) Compare yourself to your main character.
I
think we possibly share a little stubbornness!
5) Describe your past week as a type of
landscape or a weather forecast.
A
cave – definitely! Seventeen thousand words written, and one lot of edits. My
husband says he forgot what I looked like. (Not sure if that’s a good thing or
a bad thing)
I’m
really excited to be going to Gay Rom Lit in San Diego in October, and I have
lots of things I need to finish first.
Meet the author:
Has loved books for as long as she can remember. Books were always what
pocket money went on and what usually Father Christmas brought. When she ran
out of her kids' adventure stories, she would go raid her mom's. By the age of
eight she was devouring classics like Little Women, and fell in love with love
stories.
She's still in love with them. Any size, any shape, any creature - love
is love, no matter what it says on the box.
In fact if they don't fit very neatly into any box she loves them even
more!
She has a very patient husband and three wonderful children. In 2010 in
search of adventure they all moved from the UK to the US and are happily
settled in Florida. Finally, after reading love stories for so long, she
decided to write her own.
