Blurb: In a the race to warn the snow cougars, Peter Woods and Quain Ilves use Peter’s newly renovated car to reach the mountain lions before the wizards get there first. Along the way, Quain learns all about the warmhearted man he’s been bound to and the increasing importance of pack and family.
Peter Woods, mechanic and mate to seer Quain Ilves, wouldn’t change a single hair on his beloved. However, certain situations make it perilous for Quain to keep up his visions, and Peter worries over his mate’s sanity in these tumultuous times.
The clock is ticking while they compete with the magic wielders to save as many shifters as possible. Will they succeed, or will the wizards get their hands on other shifters to experiment with?
Review: I loved reading about Quain and Peter as they head out on their journey to warn others of impending dangers. Adventurous and tense at times this story adds to the series. However, I felt at a loss at it’s abrupt end with no resolution.
I am looking forward to the next book to see what happens next with Quain and Peter.

* * * *
Sam, 100% human (no, really) inherits a crumbling building and a private detective agency from his Uncle.

Two lost souls found each other through the interfering hand of fate. Now it was up to them to grab onto their happy ending and not let wizards, parents or outside forces pull them apart.
Review: So much happens in this exciting addition of the moon pack series. Quinn is a seer and despairs of ever escaping his captors who have tortured him for his his visions when one day he sees a man named Peter, who is a wolf and his mate. Peter promises to save him and a days later the vision comes true. But Quinn has a bracelet on that prevents him from shifting so Peter takes him to Anthony to remove it.
Quinn in return becomes Anthony’s seer. Peter wants to be happy but his past is haunting him. He can not get over what happened to him and his pack at the hands of the scientists. I loved this story as it combined two couples. I loved Peter and Quinn while at the same time I was sad for all they had been through.
Anthony and Silver was a nice set up for another book. I was intrigued by the events taking place and eagerly awaiting the next book.

Blurb: King Zeir had it all, a prosperous kingdom, a fated mate and the love of his people. But when his mate dies he goes half mad with grief and transforms into his dragon form. Unable to get past his sorrow, he pines for the love he never fully knew.
Colton Lanx has known nothing but travel. His parents flew from planet to planet, never settling down. Becoming a navigator was an easy choice to make until an error by his captain forced him down to the planet Dragait.
Two men joined by destiny have to overcome their past if they wish to build a future together.
Review:Each book in the Dragon Men collection features a different romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order.
I came across Amber Kell when she published her first book awhile back and never stopped reading them. Most of the time they have their serious tones but there is quite a bit of humor mixed in with them that make them even more fascinating for me. Each story will have danger, excitement, adventure, and a touch of kink to them that will keep your attention the whole time, like it does for me.
Zeir is the king of his kingdom and is loved by all of his people. Many years ago he had lost his mate or so he thought. He grieved for the man and pretty much stayed in his dragon form. So you can imagine his surprise when a shuttle crashes onto his land and comes across his true mate. A mate that was related to the one he thought was his so many years before.
Colton is a very sweet and sexy young man who just crashed his pod. Colton’s captain was such an ass and changed his navigation causing them to crash. What Colton had never known was he could shift into his dragon form, he had assumed that since he was half dragon that he didn’t really have one. He is such a cute little golden dragon who could spit fire and ice. Only one that Zeir had ever seen once before, in a man that he had thought was his mate. However things are looking up since King Zeir is his mate.
Now I understand what Colton’s father had done, as Seltin was so young when Zeir had told him they were mates, but it was a coward’s way out. However he was scared to mate someone that wasn’t his mate. Blood calls to them, and as it turns out that it was his son who was Zeir’s true mate, things started to look up for them all.
I would have loved if this story had been a bit longer but it was a damn good story. Very fast paced and kept my attention throughout the whole story. The words just seemed to flow right off the pages and the detail was so perfect for this story. I always did love a good dragon shifter and Amber rocked it.
I love how this author doesn’t let the guys become too much alpha for their mates, making their heart bleed when they are hurt and for kicking their own asses when they hurt their mates. I have always enjoyed reading one of Amber Kell’s stories and I can see that it will not change in the future. I also loved how these men will go to the extremes to protect their mates.

Title: Quentin Heart, Vampire Bounty Hunter Series: N/A Author: Amber Kell Genre: Paranormal Romantic Suspense Length: 314 pages Publisher: Amber Kell (January 29, 2016) Heat Level: Moderate Heart Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥5 Hearts Blurb: Quentin Heart is a magical genius with more troubles than three people his age. His mother is dying of cancer, a vampire master wants to own him and he has bone wolves deciding to be his new puppy protection detail.
When his friend, Glenn, is murdered Quentin Heart has to discover who attacked him and what happened to his body. Unfortunately Jakinson, the new vampire master, has decided to protect Quentin from himself.
Annoyed with everyone trying to kill or control him, Quentin has to push back against vampires, psychotic Fae and more magic than he’s ever had to handle before. It will take more than magic to get him out of this one.
Review: I came across Amber Kell awhile back and have always been captivated with the worlds she creates. They are not only well written but there is so much depth to them that you will never lose interest. Even though it is a fully developed novel I did not want it to end.
Quentin is a magical wizard who wants to get his degree. He is pretty damn good at his spells, but his one wish is to do a healing spell for his mother. She is in the final stages of cancer and he can’t let her die. He had never known his father, but his love for his mother was strong. He just needs to figure out how to get the money for her bills.
So he decides to go to work as a bounty hunter. His first job is to catch and capture a vampire leader. Somehow after capturing the man, he finds himself bonded to the second. On top of all that his best friend, Glenn is not only murdered but turned into a vampire. At the feet of Glenn are four bone wolves. Talk about a freaky day.
Now someone is out to get him and his vampire mate. Jak is a bit quirky if I say so, but his orders are just bouncing around because Quentin is a force to be seen. Now he has an evil vampire, a crazy vampire friend, psychotic Faes and more magic going on. Talk about a heated up and weird day for him.
I can honestly tell you that this is going to be one of those types of story that you can’t put down and have to read more than once.
I would definitely recommend reading this book.

Ivan Brusilov goes to Unconventional to get a drink and let off some steam. Little does he realize he’ll be meeting his destiny when he walks in.
Carney Ferguson goes to the paranormal bar to celebrate his twenty-fifth birthday. Maybe he’s looking for some fun as well, considering he’s still a virgin. He doesn’t like admitting it, but when he meets Ivan, he discovers that being a virgin can bring opportunities that being experienced might not.
As the unicorn king and the virgin begin to fall in love, there are darker forces working behind the scenes to take advantage of the unicorn legends for their own evil purpose. Neither Ivan nor Carney are safe alone, but together, they just might be strong enough to keep Ivan alive.
‘Blood on the Moon’ by Jambrea Jo Jones
Be careful what you wish for, especially when you’re a witch.
Montague Ramey wanted something to happen in his life. He thought when he found out he was a witch that his life would become more exciting, but it was the same thing every day. His coven was nice and boring, as was his job with the television station anchoring the news. The only excitement he got was going to the local bar, but there weren’t very many men who wanted to play. That was, until the moon turned red and his life changed.
After Kishar Nichelson’s motorcycle stalled on the highway with no traffic in sight, he stumbled into a small town around midnight, the red moon guiding his way. On the run and weak, Kishar needed to figure out where he was and who was after him before lack of sex killed him.
Can a witch and an incubus solve the mystery before one of them dies? The blood on the moon wasn’t the only thing they had to worry about. Meddling family, close calls with death and a missing witch are enough to keep anyone busy, but can Kishar and Montague still find time for love?
‘A Sliver of Sunset’ by Devon Rhodes
From one-night stand to nurse and patient—is it crazy to expect more?
Angelo has somehow developed leukemia—the only paranormal ever known to do so—and the doctors are mystified as to the cause. The cure requires him to repress his shifter side with a chemical inhibitor and be entirely human while he goes through chemotherapy, which contributes to some interesting situations he never would have foreseen—things like ‘misplacing’ his favorite bar, Unconventional, and getting picked up by a human without realizing it’s his mate.
Dominic can’t believe his luck when bravely striking up a conversation with the hottest guy he’s ever seen leads to the best sex he’s ever had. When he wakes up—no surprise—Angelo is gone. A week later, he’s shocked when he walks in to meet a new oncology patient to find Angelo fighting for his life and dependent upon his care.
Will their timing ever improve, or will Angelo’s time run out before they get a chance?
Review: When sexy humans and paranormals meet in a club set up for drinks, it is going to get hot. This is one of the cutest, sexiest, extremely hot and a perfect story to read. You get all different types of paranormals that will intrique you and captivate your heart. I always look forward to stories written by some of my favorite authors and I was not disappointed at all.
‘Fate’s Bridge’ by Carol Lynne ♥♥♥♥♥ 5 Hearts
Roman, Alexi and Bodi what a combination. Roman had been deeply in love with Julian. The problem was Julian passed on with a bit of pain. He had promised to come back. Roman had held on. Then over time, Roman met Bodi with Alexi’s help. Alexi was Romans brother by vampire ways not by birth. He had not expected to be bonded to Alexi also.
Damn this was a very hot story even if it was way too short to fall in love with. I do hope that Carol turns around and expands this story. I would definitely buy that book.
‘Coming in Third’ by Amber Kell ♥♥♥♥♥5 Hearts
Niall, Jovan and Luka are a sight to see. Niall was going to be forced into a marriage by his bitch of a mother, but for once he had other ideas. He was going to have a ménage a trios with two sexy men. He was shocked to find the two in lion shifters and what’s more they were his mates. Although he hadn’t known that at the time. Leave it to Jovan and Luka to save the day. Hot damn these three are hot.
Amber always gives one a good story. This was definitely hot and sexy, too bad it was to short to get more than a taste. I hope Amber expands it and turns it into a story on its own. I would definitely be the first to buy it.
‘The Unicorn Said Yes’ by T.A. Chase ♥♥♥♥♥5 Hearts
Carney and Ivan are a unique pair that is for sure. Ivan is the Unicorn king and Carney is the son of hunters. Carney had been given permission to go out finally and he was going to have fun. Although he had not expect Ivan.
This one was a bit stranger that is for sure. I wasn’t really sure what to think about it. I did have fun reading it. It is one of a very few list of books which have unicorns in it, so it makes it a truly fascinating story.
‘Blood on the Moon’ by Jambrea Jo Jones ♥♥♥♥♥5 Hearts
Montague and Kishar are two hot men that I wouldn’t mind seeing in action. Kishar was an incubi and his kind needed sex to survive. He was against killing. Montague was surprised when he found Kishar outside of his home. He was even more surprised to find out that Kishar was for him. Montague was a powerful witch who has found his mate.
This was better than I thought it would be. Jambrea gave another good story. Now if only she would expand it and give me a book to buy. Because this little taste left me wanting more. It was an exciting story that had a bit of a twist.
‘A Sliver of Sunset’ by Devon Rhodes ♥♥♥♥♥5 Hearts
Dominic and Angelo are a love story for sure. You get to meet Angel in Amber’s story. He is a sex little merman who has found out that para’s can get cancer. He went to the club, to find it gone, but ended up meeting Dominic. Dominic is the perfect nurse for when you get ill. These two are just so damn sweet. Dominic is in fact Angel’s nurse and so much more.
This was a cute little story that did intrigue me. I have not ever read a story that involved mermen so it was a different type of story, plus cancer added in made it intriguing. It was so damn short that all I got was a taste. I would love for Devon to expand it with more details and history. It would be a book that I would purchase that is for sure.
Overall
I definitely would go to this bar. It looks interesting and sounds perfect. It invites humans and paranormals for a drink. I had a great time with it and look forward to reading more by these amazing authors. I had a blast with this book and would definitely recommend it.
Title: Cookies for Courting Series: Tales of the Curious Cookbook Author: Amber Kell Genre: Contemporary Length: Novella (68 Pages) Publisher: Dreamspinner Press (April 22, 2015) Heat Level: Moderate Heart Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥5Hearts
Blurb: After his sister’s death, businessman Marshall Hunter gains custody of his niece. Unused to children, Marshall struggles to connect with her. In an effort to make her more comfortable in her new home, he hires professional muralist Pace Barlow to personalize her room.
Pace is intrigued by his tiny client, and even more interested in her handsome uncle, but Pace isn’t certain he’s ready for the commitment of an instant family.
When Marshall decides to move for the sake of his niece, will he be able to keep his relationship with his young artist, or will he have to give up love to become a good father for a lonely little girl?
The love baked into an old-fashioned recipe might bring the two men together, but some things take more than magical cookies to fix.
Review: Now this story was a big surprise. I had such a blast reading it and the characters were perfect. I have read almost all of Amber’s stories and although they are all shifter stories, they led the way to this amazing author. It gives you a new direction to pursue with her books.
There was absolutely not a dang thing missing in this story. I had such a fun time reading it. I must admit it is not one of those they meet, fall in love and everything is perfect right off the bat. This one has a little bit of pain added in.
Marshall’s sister death was unexpected and had left him raising his eight-year-old niece Alice. She has withdrawn into herself pretty much, but has told him that she wants a mural put on her wall. He would do anything for her. His parents were causing trouble saying he was not the right type of person to raise her, but he knew he was the one his sister trusted the most. So when he met Pace he was intrigued and turned the hell on. He wanted him in more ways than one, but left the hiring to his niece since it was her room that she wanted done.
Pace is a bit different and very quirky. His best friend was the nephew to a mob boss and owed him dearly for something in the past. He took one look at Marshall and wanted to be taken to bed immediately. He was in love with the little girl and wanted her to be happy. Things don’t go perfect for these men and that made it even better. However when trouble came, it was Pace that Marshall called.
What made this story quirky and fun was the fact that the housekeeper made cookies called Courting Cookies. She says that it is a cookie that would make the eater fall in love. It goes from one time frame to a further one in the future and usually that would bug me, but for this type of story it worked perfectly.
I hope that it ends up being a novella with more to it. I had a blast with it and look forward to reading more by this amazing author.

Title: Temple’s Touch Series: A Wizard’s Touch< #6 Author: Amber Kell Genre: Fantasy/ Fairy Tales/ Wereshifters Length: Novella (96 Pages) Publisher: Totally Bound Publishing (March 27th, 2015) Heat Level: Moderate Heart Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥4.5 Hearts Blurb: Sometimes true love is right in front of you.
Madison Archer dreams of the day he can claim Temple as his mate. However, when Temple heads off to school Maddie worries he’ll be forgotten among Temple’s new friends. Maybe a half wolf can’t understand the bond between mates.
Temple Stewartson has always loved Madison Archer. Childhood friends, they were now old enough to start their own lives. However, Temple doesn’t want to leave the pack without Madison by his side. So when Maddie disappears, Temple is willing to do anything to get his man back.
Review: This is part of A Wizards Touch collection and I would suggest reading them in order. However you don’t really have to. Amber has always given you a story that doesn’t always follow like many of the others. It has quite a twist to the story that will keep you always guessing. I think I actually like this one better than the others, but it can be a bit confusing. Not enough to take away from the story itself though. I had a blast reading it.
Maddie and Temple have always been together. When Temple’s family and pack save Maddie from drowning, there has been this connection between them. Temple never wanted to let him go. Everyone told him that it was because they were mates, but he never really believed it. He was half wolf and half wizard, so he didn’t have the best sense of smell. He just knew that he never wanted to be way from his best friend.
Maddie has always wanted Temple, but he feared that Temple did not want him. So when Temple decided to go to school to learn how to do magic, Maddie waited for him. Their friends and family had decided that they needed to start their own pack. After all you could only have one alpha in a pack. Maddie could learn to work on cars and Temple could learn to protect himself.
Then an injured wolf showed up, but it comes to light real fast that the wolf only wanted Maddie. Now Temple had to keep the man he loves safe and has come to realize that Maddie was his mate after all.
I love the mixture of different emotions in it. I also love how you can feel the desire, want and love that these two men have together. To me they are the perfect couple. This story has gorgeous men, feisty friends, crazy family members, excitement, action, suspense and danger in it.
I would definitely recommend reading it. It caught my attention from the moment I started reading it and kept it all the way to the end. It gave me almost everything I could ask for in a story.

Title: Unexpected Alpha Series: N/A Author: Amber Kell Genre: Paranormal Length: Novella (69 pages) Publisher: Amber Kell (April 12th 2015) Heat Level: Moderate Heart Rating: ♥♥♥♥ 4 Hearts Blurb:All profits from this book will be donated to the Autism Society of Washington.
Stanley didn’t expect his life to change when he went jogging one night. Barely surviving a dog attack he woke in a strange bed with odd urges. He didn’t mind the sexy man hovering over him. In fact if Fen wished to join him in bed he’d have no objections.
Fenris wanted the Alpha at his first growl. The sexy man’s commanding air and sweet smile were a combination out of Fen’s hottest dreams. Unfortunately family issues and outside forces tried to push the lovers apart and keep them from their happily ever after.
Faced with opposition Stanley did the only thing he could. He let everyone know that the new alpha on the block wouldn’t accept anyone getting between him and his man.
Review: Stanley is minding his own business running in the park at night when he is attacked by what turns out to be a rapid alpha werewolf. So starts the journey for Stanley into the world of the paranormal. Lucky for him he is not alone as his new mate Fen is there to help him.
With a wacky cast of secondary characters and an annoying villain, this was an awesome little short. Stanley and Fen are just so cute together. They are a perfect match from the start. This was fast paced with off the wall dialogue, hilarious scenes, spicy sex, and a happy ending.
I can’t help loving a book by Amber Kell. They always make me laugh and just enjoy reading them. This was no different. And really what more could you ask for, except maybe for more.

Title: An Omega’s Heart Series: The Under Wolves, #2 Author: Amber Kell Genre: Paranormal Length: Novella (54 pages) ISBN: 978-1-78430-588-8 Publisher: Total-E-Bound Publishing (May 22nd 2015) Available for Early Download April 24th 2015 Heat Level: Moderate Heart Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥ 5 Hearts Reviewer: Leigh Blurb: When everything is lost, the only thing left to fight for is love.
Conley Elnon has been abused most of his life. He agrees to help the War Council in uncovering a vampire mole in exchange for having the opportunity to find his family. When he meets his mate Jacob, he leaves him in order to track a mad bomber intent on taking out shifter camps.
Jacob refuses to let his mate escape. He’s waited too long to find his fated mate to let him leave before he’s had a chance to say little more than hello. When he finds his mate in the middle of vampire territory, Jacob has to use all his skills to help his mate figure out the truth between vampires and shifters and how they are responsible for what happened to Conley’s family.
Reader Advisory: This book is best read in sequence as part of a series.
Review: This book is part of a series and should be read in order.
The wait is finally over and the next book in the series is here, Yay! OK on to the review.
Conley is on the hunt to find his mother and brother who believes are still alive and prisoners of the vampires. When he meets Jacob and realizes they are mates he still walks away with the hope they will find each other again.
However, Jacob does not let his mate get away that easily. He finds him again just in time to walk into a very hustle environment.
I loved these two. They are funny and sexy even in mortal danger. They trade one liners and banter throughout the story. Just one example:
“Idiot,”Conley scoffed fondly. He covered his face again. “You are the weirdest wolf I’ve ever met.” “Good. That makes me different. I like different.”
Conley is an omega and many would see him as a weaker wolf. But he more than proves that he is very capable to fight and kill when needed. Jacob is so accepting of his mate and in fact finds it kind of hot. He sees nothing weak about his mate. Jacob is just happy to have been granted a fated mate.
This book was simply pure fun to read. I was laughing most of the way through it and highly enjoyed it.
That is something I have come to expect when reading an Amber Kell book. There is always a high level of humor, and this did not disappoint. It was well worth the long wait.

Title: Porter’s Reaper Series: A Wizard’s Touch, #5 Author: Amber Kell Genre: Paranormal Length: Novella (101 Pages) Publisher: Totally Bound Publishing (January 23, 2015) Available for early download Heat Level: Moderate Heart Rating: ♥♥♥♥4Hearts Blurb: Death is a minor inconvenience in the path to true love.
When the God of the Underworld sends Alstair back to the Academy to help pick out a new headmaster, he doesn’t mention he put Alstair in for the job. Angered but willing to keep his word, Alstair discovers the headmaster position comes with more knots of deception than a sailor’s rope.
Porter Exton had a crush on Alstair. He’d watched Alstair train Elijah through the window and had spent more than one night dreaming of the Reaper. However, dreams were set aside in order to discover the truth about his death and if the man who killed him is responsible for the other deaths at the school.
Two men with different backgrounds need to discover what they have in common if they hope to save themselves from plotting gods, egomaniacs, and possible killers.
Review: This is part of the Wizard’s Touch series and they should be read in order. Each story focuses on a new romantic couple. For me it gives me an insight into the characters and their lives. Now who knew that Hades had such a sense of humor? Not to mention when he helps you pack he makes sure there are condoms and lube. What a god.
Porter had been killed some time ago, living as a ghost and haunting new friends. That is until he saved his friends boyfriend, he was sent to Hades. He is now part ghost and part necromancer. He will be the next reaper that is if he survives his time. He had always known his death was questionable, but he never thought he would get a chance at revenge. That is until Hades paired him up with Alstair. Now there was a reaper he always wanted to give his body too.
Hades wanted Alstair to go to a conference for him. They were trying to get a new headmaster and Hades wanted his word known. Which is a blast for Alstair when he finds out that Hades put his name in for the job and sent Porter with him. It would seem Hades might be more romantic than he seems. Now all they had to do is to survive the test and those around them. But there is more to this then what it seems.
I love the paranormal world but this takes it to a new level. I mean you have shifters, elves, necromancers, gods, ghost and so much more in these books. I love the fact that there are so many characters in one book and they mingle so well. It was a blast to read and I look forward to the next story in this book. This story has a lot of twist and turns to it. If you don’t start with book, one you could get a bit lost with the story line. Trust me you will get a kick reading this story. It gave me everything I could want in it and in fact much more. It captured my attention from the moment I started reading and kept it all the way to the end.

Title: Ganging Up On Love Series: An Unconventional Chicago #4 Author: Amber Kell Genre: Contemporary/ Action-Adventure Length: Short (49 pages) ISBN: 978-1-78430-327-3 Publisher: Totally Bound Publishing (December 19th, 2014) early download available November 21st 2014 Heat Level: Moderate Heart Rating: ♥♥♥♥ 4 Hearts Reviewer: Leigh Blurb: New love can bring new dangers.
When Dirk volunteered to take the information to the resistance, he didn’t know he’d find his perfect match in their leader. Determined to find a place among them, he offers to help wherever he can.
Leon has always been alone, afraid of trusting anyone with his affection. When the visitor from Ward Three comes in with important information to bring down the mob bosses, he doesn’t know how to handle their instant attraction.
When outside dangers threaten to tear them apart, will their new love be enough to keep them together?
Publisher’s Note: This story has been previously released as part of the An Unconventional Chicago anthology by Totally Bound Publishing.
Review: For such a little book, it packed a lot in. Dirk gets to Ward Three it’s to deliver important information about the Mob Bosses that could finally take them down. The minute Dirk and Leon meet they are attracted to each other. Leon has been never attracted to a man enough to have a relationship with one. But Dirk holds his interest right away. So he takes a chance on him and it pays off. However with spies working for the Mob Boss betraying both Dirk and Leon they may not have much time. They need to get the information to a contact in another ward as soon as possible.
You do need to read the other books in the series to truly understand what is going on. There is an overall storyline about the resistance, the Mob Bosses, and the fight for Chicago. Each story is its own romance, and each couple has their part of getting the needed information to the people who can ultimately use it.
I liked this little snippet from the anthology. It was fast pace and an enjoyable read.
Blurb: When Detective Aaron Bradshaw sweet talks his way into a vampire club, he doesn’t expect the owner to claim him for a mate.
Detective Aaron Bradshaw’s boss told him to get the vampire Orion’s cooperation in their police investigation. Little did he know that sweet-talking his way into the club would be the first step in establishing a long-term relationship with a vampire.
Orion has spent years alone. However, one look at the sexy detective and he knows who he wants to keep by his side. Aaron’s insistence upon throwing himself into danger drives Orion insane. How is he going to keep his lover safe and still let Aaron do his job hunting down the drug runners in Orion’s club?
Review: This was an amazing story. Each book in the A Vampire’s Kiss Series focuses on a different romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, we recommend reading the series in sequential order. It keeps me from getting a bit lost in the stories and gives me an insight in to their world.
Aaron is a police detective sent to find out who was dealing drugs out of a vampire club. He was to go in and get the owner to agree to help him find the answers he seeks. What he had not expected was for the owner to be so sexy and getting mated. He goes in to ask and comes out after a hot night of sex, mated. I guess I would be surprised also.
Orion knew the minute Aaron walked into his club that he was going to be his and keep him on his toes. His mate was a feisty one, now he wasn’t too sure, whether he liked the idea that he could be hurt on the job, but he sure was going to stick around to protect him. When these two get together, the place goes up in flames.
I was amazed with this story and I cannot wait to get my hands on the next one. It has the perfect mixture of lust, love, passion, angst, danger, and anger. I would recommend reading this especially if you love sexy men, vampires, men with badges, excitement, adventure, dangerous situation, crazy vampire friends and a perfect story all in one. It has that and so much more. It gave me everything that I could have asked for in a story.
I love the way it had a hint of humor in it. I love paranormals especially romance but if you add in humor, I am usually reading it. I must have a story that will draw me in and have me laughing at certain parts, crying at others and this story gave me that.
