One woman on the run. Four dangerously sexy bodyguards. And a war brewing that will change the shifter world forever…
I’m living on borrowed time, fighting for survival against a deadly new virus that has no cure and a cult doing its best to brainwash me. But when a mysterious note shows up on my windowsill one night, its chilling message–Run, Wren–launches me out of the frying pan and into the fire.
Within hours, everything I thought I knew about my life, my family, and my origins is obliterated, and I’m racking up enemies at an alarming rate. Between the cult I’ve just escaped, a violent shifter faction out for my blood, and an ancient evil who eats “chosen ones” like me for breakfast, my last hope is to join forces with four dangerous-looking men who claim they were sent to guard my life.
Luke, a werewolf with a rap sheet. Creedence, a lynx shifter who never met a mark he couldn’t con. Kite, a bear kin with a mean right hook and heart of gold. And Dust, my childhood best friend and dude voted least likely to be a secret shape-shifting griffin.
But are these men really what they seem?
Or are my alpha guardians hiding a secret agenda of their own?
I’m not sure, but one thing is for certain—choosing the right allies will mean the difference between life and death. For me, and everyone I love.
UNLEASHED is book one in the Dark Moon Shifter’s series. It is a true reverse harem featuring one woman and her four mates.
Bella Jacobs loves pulse-pounding action, fantasy, and supernaturally high stakes, mixed with swoon-worthy romance and unforgettable heroes. She’s been a full time writer for over a decade and hit the USA Today Bestseller list multiple times in contemporary romance under her other pen name. She writes as Bella for her trips to the dark side and can’t wait to take you on her next adventure. xo!

- What is on your nightstand?
Water, my Fit bit charger, scraps of paper and a pen for writing down dreams, and a copy of Portland: City of Weird. I love short stories before bed.
- What author would you totally fan?
Joe Hill. I relish his work SO much and would love the chance to talk process and craft with him. I want to write endings that leave a reader breathless for ten chapters!
- What makes you cringe?
People who chew with their mouths full. Also worms that turn out to be snakes. In my snaky new home in the south, this is a common occurrence. I’ll be out for my daily walk, dodging squished worms, and one of them will turn out not to be dead…or a worm. (What’s also weird about baby snakes is that they are not cute in baby form like other animals. They don’t have bigger eyes or chubby cheeks. They’re just snakes…but small. *cringe*)
- Do you obsessively plot out each point or just go with the flow?
I’m a middle-of-the road writer. I map out a rough outline, but give myself freedom to veer off course if a more interesting avenue presents itself while I’m writing. With world-building backstory for fantasy, however, I am pretty obsessive. Even if it never ends up in the text, I want to know every single tiny detail about this alternate universe. I spent months building the world for Unleashed before I wrote a single word on my outline or the manuscript itself.
- Is there a word you love to use?
I love all the words, even the grimy creepy ones. I do get a special thrill, however, when I work a word into a manuscript that I don’t get to use often in everyday life. It’s like setting the table with the good China. (Or I imagine it’s like that. I don’t have China, lol!)
