OH, CANADA!/BIG CITY PACK-A WEREWOLF AT THE FALLS ISBN:  978-1-41993-493-3 BUY Reviews Chapter One Jorja walked into the Fallsview Casino Resort ready to face another evening shift as a cocktail waitress. The casino was one of two at Niagara Falls, on the Canadian side of the border. She’d worked there for just over a year. She didn’t mind the job, and especially didn’t mind the tips she made. Crossing through the casino, Jorja glanced over at one of the blackjack tables and had to do a double-take when her gaze landed on two extremely good-looking men sitting there. One had longish, black hair while the other wore his blond hair short. The dark-haired man snagged her attention more. She noticed the men sat at one of the tables she’d be serving. A few butterflies fluttered inside her stomach. She’d be able to get a better look at the dark-haired man. Not that she thought she stood a chance with him. But Jorja could do all the looking she wanted. And look she would. Since it was a little early for the start of her shift, Jorja headed to the bar where she saw Connie, who she would be taking over for. The woman gave her a smile when Jorja drew even with her. “Hey, Jorja. How goes it?” Not bad, Connie. And you?" I can say the same.”Connie nudged her with her elbow. “Did you see the two pieces of eye candy on your way in?” Of course Jorja knew exactly who Connie referred to—the two hunks at the blackjack table. “How could I not? I’d have to be blind not to. Have they been here long?” “All day, and have been drinking the entire time.” Jorja frowned. “I guess that means I’ll have to cut them off soon.” Connie shook her head. “Not yet. Those two can hold their alcohol. They’re just starting to feel good, if you know what I mean. I’ve never seen anyone able to drink like they have and not be passed out on the floor. And they have to be loaded cash-wise to afford all the drinks, and make some of the hefty bets I’ve seen them make.” I’ll keep an eye on them, though. They have to reach their limit at some point.” “Let’s hope it isn’t for a little while, for your sake. They tip really well,” Connie said with a laugh. “You should go put your purse and coat away, because I’m out of here soon.” I’ll just be a few minutes.” Jorja left Connie and went to the room in back where the staff had lockers to store their belongings while working. She put her purse and coat inside hers. Before she left the room, she gave her skirt a couple tugs and smoothed the front of her blouse by running her hands down it. After she returned to the bar, Jorja watched Connie walk toward her from the direction of the blackjack table where the two men sat. She then listened as the other woman placed an order with the bartender. “They’re still okay to serve?” Jorja asked. Yeah. I’ll let you give them their drinks. The blond ordered the beer while the dark-haired one wants the vanilla vodka.” “Are you sure? What about the tip?” You have it. Like I said before, they’ve tipped really well. Since I’m now officially off the clock, I’m leaving. Have a good night, Jorja." “You too.” Once Connie left, Jorja placed the two drinks the bartender had readied on her tray. With a deep breath, she headed over to the blackjack table. She felt those stupid butterflies in her stomach the closer she came. At age twenty-five, she would have thought she’d be way past the stage where she became nervous at being around a man she found attractive. That wasn’t the case, though. She just hoped she wouldn’t make a fool of herself by stumbling over her words when she served them. That tended to happen as well. Jorja arrived at the table and stood in between the two chairs the men sat on. She reached to give the blond his beer first. She’d just placed the glass of vanilla vodka on the table in front of the dark-haired one when she found herself grabbed around the waist and pulled onto his lap. She let out a small gasp, which ended up muffled as his mouth landed on hers. Jorja felt her body go up in instant flames as the man hungrily moved his lips over hers. His tongue delved inside her mouth, stroking and tasting. Her eyes closed as she kissed him back. She forgot where they were, that she sat on the lap of a strange man in the middle of a busy casino, kissing him back as if she needed him to survive. His hand buried in her long hair and held her exactly where he wanted her. Jorja barely held back a moan when she felt the length of his erection pressing into her backside. Her pussy clenched. A throbbing ache between her legs matched the rapid beat of her heart. Finally when one of the slot machines played the sounds it made when someone won, Jorja came to her senses. Her eyes flew open and she pushed at the man’s chest. His response was to hold her tighter and make a surprisingly real-sounding animalistic growl. Feeling desperate—knowing all of this would be recorded by the surveillance cameras in the ceiling—Jorja grabbed a fistful of his longish, black hair and pulled his head back until he was forced to break their kiss. Her gaze landed on his eyes, which she swore seemed to glow mutedly for a split second before they appeared to be a normal shade of light brown. “Mine,” he said in a husky voice that seemed to fan the embers of her desire to life once again. “Aw shit,” said his friend. “First Atticus and now you.” His friend’s words seemed to distract him enough for Jorja to break out of his embrace and slip off his lap. Flustered, and still turned-on, she fled, not even bothering to collect the money the men owed for the drinks.

Reviews 3.5 Half Naked Men:  For anyone who’s been to Niagara Falls, Ms. Chenery incorporates lots of nice detail about the place. It’s on the job that Jorja meets The One and I’d be willing to wear heels and sling drinks for an eight-hour shift any day just to get up and close with the book’s hero. He’s hotness incarnate and I applaud Ms. Chenery for penning such an appealing man. A Werewolf At The Falls is a nice love-at-first-sight romance. The sex is hot and the author established a good level of romance between Jorja and Kian.--Brooke, Rom Fan Reviews 4 Stars:  An amusing story, I thought it was quickly paced and a ton of fun as Kian tries to bumble his way through on what he did to his mate. I definitely would read more of Marisa Chenery’s books.--Emily, Sensual Reads 4 Cherries:  Ms. Chenery certainly gives readers an eyeful when Kian has his way with Jorja, and his manly action should leave readers as satisfied as he left Jorja, over and over. A Werewolf at the Falls is a relaxing and entertaining short story that has a passionate, sweet yet erotic flavor that should appeal to paranormal romance readers looking for a uplifting happily ever after.--Xeranthemum, Whipped Cream 4 Stars:  Just got to say I love this heroine’s name … Jorja…. Hmmmm I may change mine….but I digress ;) If you are looking for an extremely hot, quick read this is it peeps! This is an all alpha, You Are Mine whether you like it or not read. And this reader likey!--Dee, Shameless Romance Reviews You Need To Read:  This book is a great quick read. It is not only fast paced but a sweet romance as well. Jorja and Kian make a wonderful couple. The emotions that they feel burn up the pages making for a great read. I enjoyed seeing these two find their way and cannot wait to see who will find their mate next.--Gabrielle, You Gotta Read Reviews 4.5 Siren Stones:  A Werewolf at the Falls by Marisa Chenery captured my attention at the start. I love being able to get into a book from page one, especially a shorter story. I related to Jorja’s character and found her utterly charming and willing to throw caution to the wind and live in the moment. I enjoyed seeing the hero unable to practice self control. I enjoyed watching them come together and unite both physically and metaphysically.--Cia, Siren Book Reviews 3.75 Stars:  A fast paced and erotically thrilling read. The story kicks off right away with one of heck of a hello kiss. I really liked Kian’s possessive and caring nature and the way Jorja stutters when she’s around him. I will definitely be picking up another book in the Oh, Canada! series.--Yadkny, Night Owl Reviews 3.5 Nymphs:  Parts of the story were predictable and I couldn’t help hoping for a longer story so I could see a bit more disturbance in the plot. But because of Jorja’s family status and past, the length of the story works. Jorja did have reservations about being with Kian but under the circumstances, I think her reaction was as realistic as it could be. I’m glad she gave her situation serious thought and I think A Werewolf in the Falls is an enjoyable, cute love story. It made me want to read more from Marisa Chenery.--Amethyst Nymph, Literary Nymphs Reviews Only 3.5 Tea Cups:  A Werewolf at the Falls is a satisfying read. The sexual interaction was steamy and plentiful. The paranormal element added a spice to the story. While the ending felt a little rush when Kian was forced to confess the truth, the chemistry between the characters were enough to interest me. In addition, the secondary character Soren made a great appearance to the story.--Lorien, Happily Ever After Reviews A Werewolf at the Falls proved to me that even when love is sudden, it can be lasting. Neither Jorja nor Kian expected the instant passion and lust between them when they met but both more than willing to let the fireworks happen, and then learn about each other. I loved watching as they both fell into passion, and then into love, and how they were able to discover a pathway that would give them a future of love with one another. A Werewolf at the Falls takes erotic passion and sprinkles in humor for a story that is one sexy and fun read.--Jo, Joyfully Reviewed 4.5 Blue Ribbons:  I really enjoy a good shifter romance and Ms. Chenery is one of the best at writing these. Kian is suitably adorable and contrite about not being unable to control his wolf.--Claudette, Romance Junkies Reviews Rose in Bloom:  Kudos to Ms. Chenery for creating such a wonderful dynamic between Jorja and Kian! I loved seeing the masculine male fall under the spell of sweet and slightly shy Jorja. I really believed their whirlwind romance. Which was quite a feat considering this tale was sixty-five pages long. The sex between Kian and Jorja simmered up off the page, and the problems the couple faced had me worried about my HEA. ( Yes Ms. Chenery did her job well!) If you’re looking for something short and spicy this is the perfect choice.--Shyla Colt, Romancing the Book
