“A thriller packed with danger, excitement and explosive chemical reactions. It brings together another drop-dead gorgeous alpha and a surprisingly brave heroine. It also has strong secondary characters and one amazing sub-plot mystery.”

ABOUT THE BOOK

The primal call of Mate Claim sparks a battle among the three species of shifters—Wylfen, Feral, & Rogue—and has for generations. These violent feuds incite hunts by humankind, driving shifters near extinction. To protect their people the aristocratic Wylfen ban the practice of Mate Claim. When a Rogue alpha claims a Wylfen female, the mated pair forms a coalition with a Feral male. An alliance is created: Prymal, a new species & pack born of Rogue, Wylfen, & Feral. And war begins…

Brut Jurango’s pack is one of butt-ugly misfits, and he’s devoted to each and every member. When his mate and his entire pack are slaughtered, he lives for one sole purpose–revenge. Brut’s a mixed breed, wolf, panther, and human. He had a mate, and shifters are supposed to have only one in a lifetime. So why can’t he resist Sidonie Walker’s call? Or is this just one more lie proliferated by the Wylfen?

A peek:

Q: What is the world of Prymal like? You mentioned the war among the species. Is war ongoing? Or is there an uneasy truce? What is it like to live under those conditions?

All of the above and none—sorry couldn’t resist being a smart ass there *smirk*.

War is ongoing as Feral and Rogue packs are still being hunted and slaughtered.

But who is targeting whom?

In the past, the Ferals and Rogues haven’t trusted each other, because the Wylfen have planted evidence at each butchery to implicate the Rogues when Ferals are murdered, and vice versa. Only recently did the Rogues and Ferals begin to suspect that perhaps some or all of the Wylfen are responsible for their killings.

Prymal is a new alliance and two of the female Wylfens who chose Prymal mates have been attacked and exiled. Yet, an uneasy and undefined truce develops between a few members of the Wylfen pack, specifically Tania’s immediate family, and Prymal. Prymal has no idea whether the rest of the Wylfen pack will hold that truce and assume the worst. It’s difficult for the mated Prymal Alphas to allow their females out of their homes without protection…

 

 

#Author #Interview : Prymal Lust by Jianne Carlo (@jiannecarlo @TaliesinBooks)

Hi Jianne, welcome once again to The Romance Reviews! You have a new series! How exciting!

Q: What draws you to the paranormal genre? And to SEALs?

OMG–you have to ask? About what draws any red-blooded female to *drool* SEALs? I am obsessed with warriors–gladiators, knights, Vikings–and SEALs are our ultimate contemporary warrior.

I love the paranormal genre, because there are no limitations. It’s your own world, you make the rules (us short women tend to be Napoleonic). Even better for me is blending more than one world into ours of today.

Q: Please tell us more about the PRYMAL series. What is your inspiration for this series?

A nightmare *nodding convincingly*—cross my heart, yada, yada.

Ever have one of those awful dreams where you’re trapped that repeats and repeats no matter how hard you try to change the ending or wake up? I had been reading three genres at once: a Regency, a shifter, and a SEAL suspense.

Gaw, right? Why would anyone do that to themselves?

I was a judge in a contest. After reading each entry several times, I went to sleep, and had a dream about a pure-bred aristocrat, a shifter SEAL, and a Nazi-like plot to eliminate half-breeds from the planet. PRYMAL was born.

[Interviewer’s note: I wish my dreams were all this productive!]

Here’s the premise of the PRYMAL world:

The primal call of Mate Claim sparks battle among the three species of shifters—Wylfen, Feral, and Rogue—and has for generations. These violent feuds incite hunts by humankind, driving shifters near extinction.

To protect their people the aristocratic Wylfen ban the practice of Mate Claim. The Senior Council now decides all mate alliances to protect their pure blood and promote the politically premier families.

Feral and Rogue shifters still practice the primitive ritual. The Feral shifters are half-breed humans, while the Rogue shifters share two sets of animal DNA, big cat and wolf, as well as human.

Both are considered the basest of beasts in the eyes of the Wylfen. Secret schemes to eradicate the Feral and Rogue are put into motion, backed by Wylfen wealth and power. Their success leaves less than a hundred Feral and Rogue shifters on the planet.

When a Rogue alpha claims a Wylfen female, the mated pair forms a coalition with a Feral male. An alliance is created: Prymal, a new species and pack born of Rogue, Wylfen, and Feral, fracturing all established traditions.

And war begins…
