Good Morning and a very Happy Monday to everyone! I know, I know. It has been way too quiet here on the blog with nothing new and juicy for a while now. But I'm going to kick it up a bit today and hopefully help get your Monday started! How does a hot new shifter romance sound? Because not only did LeTeisha Newton stop in today to share her newest release that she co-authored with Lillian Mackenzie Rhine, she brought pictures of all the sexy, hot characters! Who doesn't like a good picture or two with their morning coffee?
So, for your reading and viewing pleasure check out Conquering Theana!! :-)

First, I’d like to thank you a bunch for having us here. Lillian and I tend to be pretty crazy, but we’ll try to tone it down a notch :D

Conquering Theana is the first story of the Conquering Series surrounding the fictitious Seurri City in the center of real-world Texas. Theana, the daughter of the alpha of the Dolphus pack, ran from Seurri when her childhood friend, Camden, laid claim to her as his potential mate. She knew that giving in would only lead to heartache, and she has no interest in having an alpha rule her. But then she comes across Gregori, beta of the Ulric pack, leaders of Seurri City, and her wolf goes haywire. She can’t fight the attraction.
That was enough to deal with, until she met Rafael, the alpha of the Ulric pack, and leader of Seurri City. Suddenly she finds herself fighting attraction to two men who are determined to have her by any means necessary. They claim rights to pack cohesion, a move that would force her to spend a week among their pack, a move that she knows is nothing about Dolphus-Ulric relations but having her. At their mercy she’s forced to face their desires, and her own. The question that looms, will Rafael and Gregori be able to conquer Theana?
About the Authors
The Conquering Series, beginning with Conquering Theana now available from Evernight Publishing, started out as nothing more than a conversation. I met this amazing woman in a writer’s group and, though she doesn’t know this, I wanted to write her into one of my stories. She was charismatic, powerful, in-your-face, and yet sweet and kind. To many I’m known as the Shifter Queen because of my knowledge of their worlds and the random lore that I can explain to people around me. I’ve always loved them, and felt like I should have been one (I know, crazy, but there it is). And so, when I met Lillian, I saw her as an alpha female. She had all the qualities I wanted. So, when someone made a joke about us writing a book together because of our similar interests, and because of a short story we wrote together had the group going wild, I jumped at the chance.
Not even a few months later we had one book started, another three planned. Once we finished that one, we had about twelve more planned, and we realized that we didn’t just write a book, we made a world! Seurri City was born, and Lillian accepted having a character based on us (I’d say majority of her is in Theana, but don’t tell her that. She sees a lot of me in Theana for some reason).
Might as well tell you a little bit about our characters.

Characters
Theana
Born to the alpha of Dolphus pack, Walter, Theana has lived a life of care, love, and indulgence. But don’t let that fool you. She is a wolf and alpha bitch potential first. She works hard for everything she has, and has only wanted the love of a mate, sometime in her future, to complete her. When Camden, her childhood friend and alpha of the Convel pack, decided he wanted to be that mate with little care how she felt of how she saw things she ran from Seurri City to pursue a career in modeling.
Camden was content to let her come to term with their eventual mating until Rafael and Gregori, alpha and beta of the Ulric pack, came into the picture. Suddenly Theana has three men vying for her undying attention. Too bad she only wants two of them, and she’d fighting tooth and nail about that as it is.

Rafael
He is the alpha of Ulric and alpha of Seurri City.
Rafael is a powerful man with even more powerful emotions and passion. Though his pack sees him as a loving, doting father figure, they know that to displease him is to incur his wrath. He is an alpha through and through. He usually leads by example and training, but he is not above laying the smackdown on any wolf that challenges his authority, of that of his beta, Gregori. The two of them have a bond that very few even know of, a bloodbond that makes the more than best friends, but brothers. For Rafael, no one in the world means more to him than Gregori and Theana. No one.

Gregori
He is beta of Ulric and Seurri City.
Gregori, for all intents and purposes, is the strongest wolf in Seurri other than Rafael. He is confident, determined, and has a heart of gold. Test him, however, and the claws come out. He will risk his life for his alpha, at any time and any place. When he meets Theana is loyalty is then scewed from Ulrick and Rafael to simply Rafael and Theana. While he loves, and will always protect his pack, he would run through even them for his mates.
