Reviewer: Shorty

Review: This story about Abe and David seemed rushed. I was expecting some tension from the pride due to David’s animal, a panther. But only one person said anything and that was once. I felt this story could have benefited from some conflicts and been so much better than it was.

As it is this story is drama based about two separate species that are mates yet go through a rough patch. Afterwards they find each other and things are HEA.

O.k. read with the typical same mistakes as the second book regarding errors.

Reviewer: Lisa

Review: Trent has no clue about his past. His parents had abandoned him when he was just a small child. He had not known that they had did it for his protection nor did he have a clue about the magical part of his life. He is close to reaching his twenty-fifth birthday and things are going to happen. When dangerous men show up he thinks it is just a fluke and not real. Then he and another co-worker are sent out to look at some impressive old books, only to find the three there. When another man shows up to protect him well lets just say his mouth is wide open. He is about to enter another world, a world he never knew he was a part of.

Conan had almost lost his to his family. He was from a dark coven of witches and he didn’t want what they wanted. When he got away, with a bit of help from what he suspects is a goddess, he created a realm where he was safe and so were those of the familiars. Which is what Trent is, however he is even more unique than ever. He is a familiar of the five elements and needed a witch that could compliment him. He was that witch but he felt that he would never be given a bond mate due to his past. Boy is he in for a surprise.

This story has a dark tone to it that I usually don’t care for however it worked perfectly for this particular book. It is quite unique in the way it is told and the fact that the familiars are protected and are also hunted down. It caught my attention from the start and I just couldn’t stop reading it. It has quite a bit of action and danger mixed in with some pretty good times. The sex is pretty hot as well. The characters are sweet and bossy. It gave me almost everything I could want in a story and so much more.

I had a blast reading this and can not wait to get my hands on the next book by this author. I can honestly admit that this story will probably be read many times over. I would definitely recommend it.

Blurb: Coven leader Cain Windgate was aware he had a mate on the farm where members of his coven wanted to relocate. He didn’t know how a mate would fit into his orderly life. And if there was more than one? All he could envision was a future of chaos. When he arrived on the farm to discuss members of his coven desiring to move there, he finally learned their numbers and their identities. There were three of them. Three mates with distinctly different personalities. Not one of them was a vampire, someone who would know that vampires were governed by strict rules, none of which included adding sparkles to anything. There was Chance Harding, a werewolf that had once been human. Then there was Larson Brekken, a brown bear shifter who loved to stir up trouble. And, lastly, there was Pebin Xavier Muldoon, a fairy with a love for all things shiny. Nope, not a vampire among them.

Reviewer: Lisa

Review: A large mixture of attitudes and quirks. Cain is the leader of his vampires and has a big job of doing it. However he also knows his mates are not there. He has a feeling that they are at the ranch and isn’t really to into it. He just has no clue how to make it work. He is a city vampire and those at the ranch are well not. He just had not expected three of them, and there is not a vampire in the mix.

Chance was a human but is now a werewolf and has one hell of a grumpy attitude towards everyone. Larson is the big ass bear shifter who just loves to drive Chance crazy. Neither are really big on popping out babies, which is probably why they are not doing the dirty right off the bat. Then there is sexy little Pebin. Now Pebin is a fairy who wants to pop out those babies and decorate everything with glitter. Four separate personallities and damn is this going to be funny as hell.

I spent most of my time wanting to smack the alpha’s in the ass and laughing at Pebin. He was the best character of them all. The whole group if a blast to read about, and lets not forget Fred’s crazy ass five year olds and their stealing ways. The only danger of them all. It is a eays read with a nice pace going for it. The only problem with it was that it seems to be missing a certain spark to it. The connection between the four men just doesn’t seem to go smoothly which in some ways works out fine but in others makes it seem like they were pushed to it.

Overall I had a blast reading it and can’t wait to get my hands on the next story. I was real glad to see that none of these guys were given a female mate, but that is just me. I would definitely recommend it.

Blurb: Stryker

I was sent on a mission to investigate a shifter running guns. I was not sent to find my mate, and yet, there he was. Every gorgeous inch of him. It was just too bad he was right in the middle of the mess I was there to stop. If I can keep him alive long enough, I might be able to discover how my mate ended up in so much trouble.

Frankie

My life turned upside down when I discovered a sexy man hiding in the wine cellar at a cocktail party. Finding him naked in my bed later that night just about topped every fantasy I’d ever had. The fact that he was a shifter didn’t seem that important. The fact that he thought I was a shifter made things a little weird. When armed men broke into my apartment to kill us, weird took on a whole new meaning. Things just got weirder from there.

Reviewer: Lisa

Review: Each book in the Assassins Inc collection features a new romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order.

Frankie hates dressing up and hanging out with strangers. However he was stuck for just a few more minutes at his mother’s party. He would do anything for her but damn he really couldn’t stand it. He is a normal young man who works for what he has but his mother has married someone with more money then a person should have. He loved his mother but wasn’t sure about her husband, and his new stepbother is an ass. Then he hears exactly what the man is up to and damn if he had no clue what to do with the information. Thankfully someone else was hanging out in the wine cellar with him. He just had not expected it.

Stryker was sent to kill Frankie’s stepdad for selling weapons. However he had not expected to find his mate. Although telling Frankie that he is a panther shifter is a bit hard, but not as hard as telling Frankie he is a coyote shifter. Get ready for some fun times.

I get a kick out of these stories and the fact that this assassin group have cats of their own. Maincoon cats to be exact and they walk with a collar and leash. It would seem it is mandatory to have one when you mate, sure did give me a good laugh each time. This story gave me all that I could want and so much more. Danger filled, excitement, adventure, and some hot sexy times are just a bit of what you get in this book.

I had a blast reading this and can guarantee that it will be read more than once. I am so ready to just start reading it again, it is that good. I spent most of my time laughing my ass off and the rest of the time waiting for Frankie to deck someone. I can not wait till the next book comes out in this series.

Blurb: Rowan Lane feels like he’s been on the run for years. The love of his life, and the man he thought he would spend the rest of his life with, was a shifter. That wasn’t so bad, but when Max bit Rowan without his permission, locking them together for life, Rowan panicked and ran. Now, he’s back. Rowan witnessed a murder. Someone powerful is out to kill him, and Rowan knows Max can protect him.

Max never thought he would see his mate again. The love of his life left, and Max couldn’t blame him. Biting someone against their will and mating with them is considered shameful to his kind. He should have known better.

When Rowan comes back, neither of them can seem to keep their hands off of each other. Max wants to go back to the good old days, but he also wants to keep his mate alive and catch this killer, before the killer catches them.

Reviewer: Shorty

Review: Rowan shows up on Max’ doorstep years after leaving him du to being freaked out by Max being a shifter. He needs help only Max can give him when someone is out to kill him. Max does not even bat an eyelash at Rowans reasoning. He will do anything to protect his mate.

Though I understood Rowan’s reason for leaving years before I think it was really rude to just show unannounced assuming Max would help him despite what he did in the past. Max for his part was understanding a little too fast for my liking. But then again he is a shifter whereas Rowan is a human.

It was an o.k. read.

Reviewer: Shorty

Review: Alex and Will are arranged to be mated. Neither is happy with the circumstances until they see each other. Getting to know one another they both realize they were wrong about the other and grow closer.

As the story progresses there is dissension within Alex’s ranks that plots to kill Will. A great story that keeps you on edge awaiting the outcome. The battle scene was fierce and awesome.

I have read books one through four and this is the best book in the series so far. The rest are o.k but lack action like this one has.

Abner loves everything about Christmas, but his excitement is hampered by Robbie’s sour mood. He’s at his wits’ end on how to cheer Robbie up—until they’re splashed by freezing water while trying to cross the street. Abner is livid, ready to tell the driver off. Instead, he stares at the second most gorgeous man he’s ever met.

Malachi ran into town for errands, unknowingly heading right toward his mates. He’s baffled that Robbie and Abner have been together for weeks, and Abner is clueless about mates.

Reviewer: Lisa

Review: Each book in the Brac Village collection features a new romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order. However with this series, I would start reading Brac Pack first. It will lead you into Christian’s Coven, Zeus’s Pack, Demon Warriors and so forth. This is one action packed adventure.

Robbie and Abner have been mated just a few weeks, however Robbie has been hiding a secret from Abner, or so he thinks. He is an impala shifter. It is almost Christmas time, but to Robbie that is one day away from hell. Abner however loves the holiday and whats more he loves Robbie. He is a human living in a paranormal world, although he only thinks bear shifters exist. His eyes are about to be open to a lot more, especially when Malachi shows up.

Malachi is a panther shifter and he has found his mates, two of them, who would have thought. Although it was not the best of meeting them since he drenched them with muddy water. Things are going to get crazy, especially since a deer is stalking Robbie and there is a rogue on the loose.

As always Lynn has done an amazing job with this story. It caught my attention from the start and kept it all the way to the end. Although Kota will be begging Blair’s forgiveness. As always this is a world I would love to live in. Sexy men who turn into shifters, crazy mates, danger and excitement and hot sex is just a bit of what you get with this story. I had a blast reading it and can not wait to get my hands on the next book.

Review: Each book in the Vampire Chronicles collection features a new romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order.

Mateo wanted two things in life, to be a pastry chef and to find someone who truly loved him. However he was going by it the wrong way. Each time he was disappointed until his mate stepped in. To bad his mate was just the same as the others, or so he thought.

Aldrich was the head enforcer in his coven and took his job seriously. He noticed all that was around him, including the sexy man being taken advantage of by the others. What he had not expected was for that man to be his. To bad someone is out to kill his little mate.

Action packed, danger filled, excitement overload and some hot sexy times are just a bit of what you get in this book. It gave me close to everything I could want in a book, OK it gave me everything I would want. It has a serious tone to it but there is some humor in it. I enjoyed the characters quite a bit but Mateo was the hit with me. I felt bad for him through out the story but was glad when he stood up for himself. He could kick ass if he wanted to.

I had a blast reading this and can not wait to get my hands on the next book. I would definitely recommend this. I wasn’t to surprised though, come on STORMY GLENN is a hit with me.

Clint and his brothers go in and rescue those who need help. Many years ago their mother and father worked for a lab that did research and experiments on those who volunteered. The only way it didn’t happen is if the women were pregnant. The scientist had no clue what would happen to an unborn child. However there was one scientist that didn’t believe in all that, he wanted to know what happens. So Clint’s parents ran, except his father didn’t make it. So rescuing a child also leads him to his mate.

Bobby is a detective who just wants the truth. He sees something wrong and he checks it out. To bad this time it gets him into trouble. Being held hostage and then getting saved, leads him to some pretty amazing surprises. One is he has a mate, a mate that turns into a jaguar. Now if they can all survive the trouble coming, well you will have to read this story. There is also a very nice surprise for our guys.

I started reading romance when I was twelve and fell in love with the magic of a written story. I have always been fascinated by the worlds that were created. I came across m/m romance just a few years ago and I have found that I prefer them over any other book. Every once in awhile you find an author that just gets the story right. Stormy has been one of my favorite authors for quite sometime and is one that I automatically purchase as soon as they come out. So when I found out about this book, I knew that I had to grab it. The stories she creates is fascinating and very tempting for me. The characters are fully developed and seem to just have this extra zest about them that makes them even hotter.

There is a serious tone to it but there is some humor to be found within. It caught my attention from the moment I started reading and kept it all the way to the end. It gave me everything I could possibly want in a story and so much more. I had a lot of fun with it and would definitely recommend it. I can’t wait till the next story comes out.

Review: Each book in the Federal Paranormal Agency collection features a new romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order.

Jeremy is a FPA agent and a shifter, he remembers when he found Roman and the shape he was in. Roman had been raped, beaten, and starved. The moment his friend brought him out, Jeremy knew that he had found his mate. He was just afraid to claim the man due to what had happened. He didn’t want to scare or hurt his little mate. However his lizard knew that the man was his mate, and wasn’t letting him out of his sight.

Roman remembered the time of his capture, but that did not mean he was going to let it define him. He wanted his mate to claim him, and if becoming an agent would help to prove he was strong then so be it.

The story is well rounded and fully developed. The characters are charming, fierce and damn sexy. It caught my attention from the moment I started reading and kept it all the way to the end. I got a big kick out of Jeremy’s animal side, what a cutie, for a very big lizard. This is probably one of my favorite types of series, full of action and excitement, some hot sex and add in the danger and damn if I am not eating it up.

I had a blast reading this and can not wait to get my hands on the next book. I would definitely recommend this.

Review: Each book in the Rescue for Hire West collection features a new romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order. In this case I would start reading Rescue for Hire, the original start to the both series. It will introduce you to the men who are sent to save others.

Morgan has had a hard life, one that was filled with disappointment and abandonment. He had always thought that he was meant to be alone, that no one would want to keep him. He was the computer expert for the Rescue for Hire West. When one of the savings brought in a small child, he decided he wanted to adopt the child. Then even that fell through, his heart was broken in more ways then one. Then in comes Tatum.

Tatum was the one that rescued Reese when he was hurt badly in a car accident. He was also the one that recognized him and called for help. He was however getting burned out and needed a change. Rescue for Hire West might just save him also. When he meets Morgan, he knew that he has found the man for him. Now all he has to do is to prove to the man he was wanted.

Each one of these stories is a fascinating tale that have a twist to them. They are action packed and danger filled. The men are sexy as hell and have a story to tell. The worlds this author creates is entertaining and exciting and down right hot. What is the best part of this particular story is the fact that the author lets us know that there is going to be a new series coming out soon.

I enjoyed reading this and can not wait to get my hands on the next book. This is one of those types of stories that will be read many times over.

Blurb: Galen is next in line for the throne of the Earth Kingdom. With father ready to relinquish the throne, Galen must be mated. His father had already arranged a mate for him to meet and bond with. However, Galen has done his utmost to forget about said arranged mating until his father leaves him no choice but to fetch his mate home.

Finc is the illegitimate son of a noble and a low born woman. The half-brother to Galen’s arranged fiancé. Life had not been kind to him at all since his birth. However, with his mother, at least he had known love of the motherly kind, for a time, but all good things never lasted for long, especially in his case, and his only refuge against his reality was his writing and his best friend, Jory. That was, until the day he met Galen and knew deep in his bones that this was his fated mate.

Having his fated mate be his half-brother’s fiancé was so far off what he expected, but how would they ever have an acceptable bond when Finc’s biological father, as well as his step-family, were not willing to have the half-brothers trade places?

I have never really been a fan of books with the fae in them, or should I say where they are the main characters. Galen is to be the King of the Earth Kingdom, once his father steps down. He was to bond with someone of higher standing, but the moment he saw Finc well lets just say there are going to be some pissed off people.

Finc was the result of a highbred noble man and a very poor woman who was not like him. She showed Finc the love that a child needed, but his father took that life away from him. He was brought to the man’s home and now had a stepmother and half brother, neither really cared for him. He thought it would never change, that is until he saw his half-brothers intended mate. Sparks are sure to fly.

It is a tale that has been told over and over, just in different ways. There was nothing really unique to this story, other than the characters themselves. However it is a very entertaining tale that will have you smiling. I liked the touch of danger near the end of the story, but for me it was a fun little book. All in all, I hate to admit that this story really didn’t do anything for me. It didn’t catch my attention like it should have, but that is just my opinion for my desires of the book.

The characters however were the part that rocked. Their mixing was a bit strange, but I always liked Finc and Galen, and knew that they had a story to tell. I just wished it called to me a bit more then it did.

Blurb: For Theron, the scars of his brother’s murder still run deep, a new alpha is in charge, and he doesn’t yet trust this dragon clan. With nowhere else to live, and his former alpha doting over a wolf omega of all things, he figures he’ll stick around, if only to protect his friend.

And there’s one little fox shifter who caught his attention. Someone who sneaks out every night. Someone who smells awfully good. Someone who needs protecting.

Angel spent his whole life a slave to vampires. He’s free now, or at least told that he’s free, but he’s never allowed to leave the mansion. So he sneaks out at night, wanting to see the world, wanting to socialize, never realizing the dangerous situations he’s putting himself into.

And a stolen kiss with a dragon, one who insists Angel is his mate, isn’t going to fly. Angel was caged once before, and even a gorgeous alpha dragon won’t cage him again.

Review: For all Theron’s hatred of wolf shifters he becomes enamoured of cute little fox shifter, Angel. Unfortunately for Theron he went about things the wrong way and instead of making Angel trust him and feel safe he sends him running.

My heart went out to Theron but at the same time I felt he deserved it. Angel was indeed naive about how the way the world works. He puts himself in danger a few times because of this.

Fantastic addition to the series and highly recommended.

Reviewer: Shorty

Review: A feud between dragons and coyotes are at an all time high. Though some do not know the real reasons for the feud. It all comes to light when Jake, a coyote, mates Arthur, a dragon.

The one thing that confused in this story was the only way to know for sure if they are mates it to be bitten by a dragon, then survive the venom in said bite. That blew my mind. What happens if they are not mates will they die from the bite. Seems a bit risky to me.

But aside from that I very much enjoyed the story and reading about the dragons and the coyotes.

Great read.

Blurb: Welcome to Cedar Falls, a small North Carolina town nestled amongst the Smokey Mountains. Where the people are friendly and the men are hot.

The biggest election Cedar Falls has ever had has arrived. What better way to cover it than starting a newspaper? Jonathan Grier never would’ve considered taking the job if he hadn’t been humiliated and banned from every other publication. Had he known just how insane the town really was, he might have decided to work in retail instead.

Drex Kershaw had been part of a military special forces unit until an injury ended his career. Determined to make a new life for himself, he discovered Jonathan, who needed him more than anyone he’d saved in the past. But if Drex had any hope of finding happiness with Jonathan, he may just have to paddle the snarky cynicism right out of him.

Warning: The election of the century, or at least for another four years, has finally arrived. Will Jesse win, or will he end up throwing the biggest temper tantrum of his life?

Review: Each book in the Cedar Falls collection features a new romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order.

I started reading romance stories at the age of twelve and was always intrigued by the worlds that authors can come up with. Then a few years ago I read my first gay romance and I decided that there was just something about them that I liked more. I, like many, have favorites that we always follow and Shea Balik is one of those authors for me. There is just something about the worlds that she creates that keeps me captivated through out the whole entire book. So much so that when a new book comes out, I must always start reading the very first book that leads up to this one.

I love how there is a serious tone to it, but that it is equally matched with humor. I can’t stand a book that has no humor in it, I would rather be laughing then just sitting there. I also love how Jesse and the gang try to help the others out, even if it gets them into hot water. There is always lust, love, hot sex and a good amount of danger placed in these stories that keeps my attention as well.

It is the time to find out if Jesse is going to be mayor or not. Jesse decided they needed a newspaper in town and who better than Jonathan to run it. However it would seem Jonathan just wants to find out the truth about the two men who are running. He just seems to not like Jesse and he has one hell of an attitude. Thankfully Drex knew how to handle him. He had once been in the special forces until he was injured. Now he just led a quite life working with a friend. All that is going to change with a very vocal and sexy man. Stay tuned to find out who wins the election, GO JESSE.

I love these stories especially when there are some gorgeous men in some kinky situations. I can honestly tell you that this is going to be one of those types of series that you can’t put down and have to read more than once. It is the perfect story for me and gave me all that I needed. I love the way all the feelings they felt was involved in this story. I had a blast reading it and I can’t wait to read the next story. Trust me it will keep you laughing, crying, loving and having fun.

Review: Tristan along with others of his clan rescue the omega coyotes that were taken by a rogue group of dragons. Adrian struggles to comes to terms with what happened to him. Tristan helps him see he is not the bad guy.

A good addition to the series that I enjoyed reading. Tristan is badass yet caring and considerate. I’m highly curious about Andrew and Lance given Lance’ past.

Great read.

When the son of a prominent British politician, and a fellow fox shifter, goes missing in Prague, Andrew is forced to go out into the field for the first time. It wouldn’t be so bad if it weren’t for the fact he was partnered up with Lane Roberts, leopard shifter, secret agent, and all round serial flirt.

The two men had been butting heads for two years, dancing around each other in a game of Lane’s making. Putting himself in danger, and having to pretend to be married to Lane Roberts would have been bad enough, but the deeper they go the darker their mission seems to get.

Reviewer: Lisa

Review: Each story in the C.L.A.W. collection features a new romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order. This particular series is branched off from the Happily Ever After Mating Agency series. I would suggest reading those books first. Although it can be read as a standalone.

Andrew is one hell of a computer expert and hacker. Thank god he works for the good guys otherwise we would be in big trouble. When a young man goes missing who ever was behind them looking for him, asked for Andrew to help. He is about to get a big surprise in that end. To bad he has to work with the biggest flirt in the world and who got on his nerves

Lane was a big flirt but it got the job done. A super secret spy had to do what he could to get the results he wanted. He just needed to figure out how to get the one man he wants to be his. That is after they save the kid.

Entertaining and very unique type of story. It caught my attention from the start and kept it all the way to the end. It also gave me almost everything I could ask for in a story. I will admit that it was missing something to make the story complete but I didn’t really notice it to much. I liked the characters and their story quite a bit.

I had a blast reading this and can’t wait to read the next book. It might even be one of those types that will be read more than once, we will just have to wait and see.

Review: Flashpoint is at it again with simultaneous attacks against the residence’ of Sage and surrounding areas. Things are brutal and some are left injured or dead in the wake of the attacks. Some that participated are captured. John’s son Murray is badly hurt.

Trash finally reels in his lion shifter mates Brody and Tobias after they come on to strong and Trash runs. He gives them a merry chase until they learn to control themselves. There was a lot of different things going on in this wonderful addition to the series.

In the aftermath some of the residence’ of sage decide to leave Sage to live elsewhere in a safe Haven that sounds like heaven even though they have to start from scratch and build their place.

I loved everything about it except I wanted to know who were twenty eight residence that lost their lives in the attacks. The story never said and I wanted to know. Regardless, it was an absolute fantastic addition to the series.

Review: Each book in the Cade Creek collection features a new romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order. I would read book one in the Blaecleah Brothers first, it will start with the characters you will get to see in this story. There is one other collection that is also connected to these two that you might enjoy as well, Special Operations.

Happy knows everything about growing up around cruel family members but he has found love in his sexy deputy. He is surrounded by love and takes after his own name. So when Marc brings home a little girl who has just gone through hell, he wants to keep her. However there is someone that wants her and it will take the whole family to keep her safe.

I came across this author a few years back and have always been a big fan. She gives you a mix of emotions that makes your heart swell and you lips lift into a big smile. However she will also have you in tears and wanting to rip someone apart. This story makes what one young man go through to give forward what he has learned since he had been rescued. The story gives you love, joy, excitement, danger and so much more that will in the end give you one good story. It caught my attention from the moment I started reading and kept it all the way to the end.

I had a blast reading this and can guarantee that it will be read more than once. I can also guarantee that you will love the characters and their story quite a bit. Just make sure you have your tissues handy.
