High Voltage
Serena Lamond believes she's just rescued an injured dog one dark and stormy night, but when she arrives at her lakeside cottage, the dog she'd helped into the bed of her truck is gone. In its place, she finds a startling discovery-a naked man! Garrett Slater is the leader of a prominent pack of wolves-he's also the only man who can save Serena from the vicious pack hunting her... TO MY READER: I'm not sure what I would do if I found a gorgeous multimillionaire-who just happened to be naked!-in the back of my truck where I'd left an injured dog... I can only hope I'd derive as much pleasure out of the bizarre situation as Serena Lamond does. Enjoy!

Rain, rain and more rain! That is all Serena Lamond has seen day and night since she arrived at her lakeside cottage in Silver, Wyoming. She has taken some time off since she was involved in a scandal at work. It seems trouble follows Serena wherever she goes, and her life is like an episode of Twilight Zone.
But the crazy weather doesn’t stop her from taking her old pickup truck out for a drive to pick up some groceries. As she is coming back, a flash of lightening gives her a fright along with an out of control orgasm. Before she can even try to figure out what is going on with her body, she hits something. She thinks she has hit one of her neighbor’s German Shepherds. She has indeed hit a dog and quickly puts the poor thing in the back of her truck to go back to her cottage for help. But when she gets home, the dog is no longer in her truck, but instead there is a naked man looking at her.
Garrett Slater is a werewolf and was the one Serena hit while he was in dog form. He has been watching Serena, along with the other shift changing males that run around town. They want to mate with Serena, and Garrett refuses because he has laid claim to her first. All he has to do is seduce her and hope she will be able to accept him. He does have one thing on his side at the moment, and that is being naked in all his glory for Serena to look upon and lust over.
If only I could be as lucky as Serena to find a gorgeous naked man in my truck wanting to protect me and have his way with me at the same time! HIGH VOLTAGE is not just about a freak storm, but the intense attraction the innocent Serena has for the sexy Garrett. Their introduction is quite out of the ordinary, but the outcome leads to some nice bedroom scenes between the two. Let’s just say Serena gets over her initial fright at finding what she thinks is a dog turned into a very too-good-to-be-true male.
Calista Fox has written a sexy wolf in sheep’s clothing story that has great sex scenes, action, and a sigh-worthy romance that I enjoyed till the very last page.

I know this was just a short story but I was a little dissapointed, it couldve been more. It had the typical whole instant mate thing, which I dont have a problem with, but her freaking out about his changing kind of bugged me for some reason. Wants to marry him but cant stand his other half, kind of weird. If it were longer I think it wouldve been better, and maybe got past her whole weirdness.

It's a quick read that is just average. It is short, and doesn't seem to focus much on either the paranormal aspect, the shapeshifter politics, the sex, or the relationship. It's a little bit of everything that just seemed 'eh' to me.
