Rick has spent all his life under Alpha Erskine’s thumb. He was forced to become part of the man’s inner circle when his father died and to participate in things that still give him nightmares. He’s used to being shunned, beaten, and derided for his stutter, and he doesn’t think things really can change, not even with Kameron as their new alpha.

Cole is part of the council, but he’s really a wandering soul. He hasn’t stopped in one place in years, but meeting his mate while visiting the Gillham pack changes that. He knows Rick hasn’t had an easy life, and he intends to make his mate happy, no matter what it takes.
Rick struggles with his stutter and his past but slowly starts healing from the years of abuse. Cole is an important part of that healing, but what will happen when someone tries to take him away?

Will Rick be strong enough to protect his mate, or will he lose him to greed?

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

This book actually pulls at me more than most. I have lived through not only mental, emotional but physical abuse. Not as bad as many though. So Rick pulls at my heart-strings more than most characters. His old Alpha was an evil ass who took what he wanted. He had wanted Rick’s mom, and was more than likely his father. He was abused by many, beaten and shunned for stuttering and his life was hell.

Cole had been part of the council but his life changes when he finds his mate. He can feel and see the fear that the little guy has inside of him. Now he knows he would give everything up to be with his mate. He would give anything to help him to heal, and to show him that he is loved. Now if only his ass of a brother would stop calling.

I know by heart that Catherine’s books will always entertain me. When she puts out a book I am usually there to eat them up. They do have a bit of a serious tone to them but there is a lot of humor in them that I love. It caught my attention from the moment I started reading and kept it all the way to the end. It also gave me everything I could want in a book.

I would definitely recommend reading this book. Trust me it will keep you laughing, crying, loving and having fun.

Blurb: It’s not easy to trust when you’ve already been burned.
Nysys is a member of the paranormal council, but he knows no one actually takes him seriously. When Morin Glass asks for help and protection, Nysys takes the opportunity and asks Dominic to be assigned as the man’s bodyguard. He never expects to find out Morin is his mate, but he has no intention to actually tell him. He knows they’re too different, their worlds miles apart.

Morin has taken his father’s place as the head of the Glass Research Company even though he didn’t want to. He’s horrified by what the man has done and intends to work with the council to make things as right as they can. He has a problem, though. A killer is after him, and he needs help.

Nysys and Morin slowly grow closer as the days pass, but the killer is never far away. They also have to deal with Rayford Glass’ trial and hostile council members.

Will it be enough to tear them apart before they really have a chance at happiness?

I absolutely love Nysys. He is not only quirky but a disaster in the kitchen. He is just so damn adorable and absolutely loveable. He is the one that would pull at you. He is one of the council members but honestly no one takes him seriously. They see him as a goof and not good enough. The problem is he sees himself the same way. He is just scared that is all. When a human ask for help he jumps in feet first. He just hadn’t expected Morin to be his mate.

Morin’s father was an ass who treated the paranormals like animals and freaks. He had experimented on them and others. Morin just wanted to make amends. Then someone tried to kill him and he needed help. He had not expected Nysys to be the one. He just hadn’t expected his feelings for the man. Talk about shocks, but damn they are hot.

I would definitely recommend reading this book. Trust me it will keep you laughing, crying, loving and having fun.

Blurb: .Just a little love bite: The instinct to please your peers should never be stronger than your conscience.

Cassium Jones is closing in on his fourth century mark and over the years has held many roles, from farmer to soldier to vampire enforcer. Now, he’s ready to settle down in moderate relaxation…if working a cattle ranch can be considered relaxing. He loves the wide open spaces, the fresh clean air, and even tending the animals.

Handling the maintenance and care for the Angus cows in the northern pastures offers plenty of solitude, and he should have been left pretty much alone. Instead, Cassium stumbles upon an injured Angus bull amongst the livestock, and realizes the bull is not only a shifter, but his beloved, his soul mate. Cassium learns Garth has been driven from his herd for disobeying a controlling alpha, leaving behind two young children.

While Cassium is happy to help reunite the bull shifter with his kids, is he ready to take on the role of parent when all he wanted was to retire?

Reviewer: Shorty

Product Link: http://www.extasybooks.com/charlie-richards/Not-a-Line-of-Bull/

Review: This is the sixth book in A loving Nip series. A wonderful story about Cassium, a vampire, who finds an injured Angus Bull shifter, Garth, mixed with his herd.

I loved how caring and sweet Cassium was to Garth. I was appalled at what some of the members of Garth’s herd did to him. I was also angry at the way Garth’s Alpha ran his herd. It was despicable to say the least.

Garth was so sweet and innocent in most things between males and Cassium slowly showed him the wonders and joys of being with one. Tender moments between these two at times had my eyes watering. Especially when Garth was explaining about his Alpha and how he didn’t believe in mates.

I loved the scenery in this story of wide open spaces, the fresh air and the peaceful surroundings of Cassium’s home. Fantastic read with some hot sex that added a lot of heat to this already amazing story. Looking forward to the next book in this series.

Highly recommended.

Robyn had been so in love with Caden five years ago, but that changed the moment Caden left him to join the military. He had pretty much abandoned him. So when he saw Caden, for the first time in five years he knew he was in trouble. It seems his heart didn’t want to let the man go. Didn’t mean he had to go easy.

Caden had loved Robyn when they were younger, but not like he should have. He had wanted to get away and learn about himself. That and he needed money for college. What he learned was that he missed the man more than he had expected. He realized it almost too late. Now he had some serious ass to kiss.

When these two get together they set the sheets on fire and cause every one a bit of friction burns.

I would definitely recommend reading this book. Trust me it will keep you laughing, crying, loving and having fun.

Heart Rating: ♥♥♥♥ 4 Hearts
Blurb: Logan is a wolf with a past. His mother is a witch, an evil one that tried to murder his friends and tear his pack apart. He volunteered for the small group tasked with stopping her and was faced with a difficult decision. He chose to step in front of his friend and take the deadly spell meant for Kyle. It killed him.

At least that’s what he thought until he was once again put in the position to choose in a dream. This time, by a deity who offered him a chance to move on or come back. It is that melodic voice that tempts him back with the promise that he would be loved.

Needless to say the news that it wasn’t a dream and he now belongs to a Goddess isn’t a nice surprise in the cold light of day and he rebels against the ownership. His friends rally round him and summon the deity to demand answers.

Except…when Cerridwen appears, she isn’t a Goddess anymore but a God. With white hair that glitters with magic, mesmerizing eyes and a body made for sin that makes his wolf pant.

It isn’t a short or easy road, but Logan gives Cerrid the chance the man asks for and discovers being claimed by someone may not be that bad a thing, because sometimes the belonging goes both ways.

Reviewer: Leigh

Review: This book is part of a series and should be read in order.

This was a really good and enjoyable read. Logan gave his life to save his Alpha. But something or someone gave him another chance, at life and love. When Logan finds out he has been claimed by the Goddess Cerridwen, Logan is not exactly thrilled with the news. He was promised to be loved, however Cerridwen is a woman, and Logan is definitely gay.

Only Cerridwen, now to be called Cerrid changes his whole personality along with his body to fit Logan’s desires. Cerrid also manages to create a mate bond between them. Cerrid take the “gay for you” fantasy to a whole new level.

I really liked Cerrid. He has a lot to learn about the world since he has not been in the human realm for a long time. Things like fashion and electronics. The shopping trip had me laughing. He may not understand the world at large, but he sure does enjoy learning about it with Logan’s help.

Logan has his own learning to do. Things like anything is possible with a God as a mate. And how to live in a treehouse that seems to be alive.

These two are definitely hot and sexy together. Let me just say that a newly male God and the internet are very good things, especially for Logan.

This book was funny and sweet. It was great addition to the Pack Valley world.

Review: Each book in the Shifters and Lovers 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 have not really read any books by this author but the first to this series. I was fascinated with the way the men just flow together. There were only a few problems I had with the story, but they are not major for me not to like the book.

The first one was the actual ending. It seems like it just drops off which didn’t hit me right. I felt that it could have continued to make it more enjoyable. Also the fact that they don’t have mates drives me nuts. Shifters should have mates to me.

Jordan left his pack after he was being forced to marry a woman. The man was as gay as could be, so no women for him. So now he protects others, but he had not expected to actually fall for the one he is assigned to now. However he felt it better to protect Rick from a stalker than get into bed with the man. Yeah, like that is going to last long.

Rick is an amazing actor, but now he has a stalker out for him. For an actor he is down to earth, but he takes one look at his bodyguard and damn did he want him. Too bad the man was fighting the attraction between them both. Looks like it was going to take a bit of work to get his man. That is if the stalker doesn’t get him first.

I had fun reading this and look forward to the next book. I would definitely recommend reading this book. Trust me it will keep you laughing, crying, loving and having fun.

I love the way this author can put together a book that not only fascinates you but draws you in. I had a blast reading this and look forward to reading more by Catherine. The characters are beautifully written with big hearts, however if you cross them, they have no problem putting you down.

To me there is nothing better than a good romance, but when it is a paranormal then it hits higher marks to me. To top it off, when you add in the fact that one of the guys is pregnant, you in for a moment of laughter. I love them especially when there are some gorgeous men in some kinky situations.

Troy and Emery were mates. Yet they hadn’t even said much more than hello to each other. Troy had been kidnapped while he had been walking home one night. The scientist experimented on him and changed his DNA. He now had a harpy inside of him. To him, he was nothing more than a monster now. However when Emery finally forced them to be near each other, Troy was pissed to say the least.

Then he found out that they were mates, and he thought he would never be left alone. So he jumped at it. I don’t think he expected the final outcome to his plan.

Emery knew that his mate was having a difficult time. He had started out a normal human male, that now ended up with harpy inside of him. Harpy’s were also female. Emery knew what it felt like to be different. He was half shifter and half vampire. He had lost his entire family in the war. He wanted his mate, he wanted a family and he knew he wouldn’t let them go. He just was not expecting what was going to happen next.

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. When Catherine puts out a book I am usually there to eat them up.

I would definitely recommend reading this book. Trust me it will keep you laughing, crying, loving and having fun.

Reviewer: Lisa

Review: I came across Bronwyn’s books a few months ago and I get a kick out of them. This one is short, sweet and damn funny. It is the first book in the series and I must say it was a surprise. I would have liked it better had it been longer, with more details and feelings into it. It came off as a story that was rushed.

Ben and Shad had taken a liking to each other. Ben thought it was a one night stand, that is until he started getting sick. What a kicker for them, he is pregnant.

The start of the book doesn’t lead into the story, just has them getting all bothered, and then straight to the hotness. Then the next thing you know they get the shock of their lives. It just needs to be more detailed, with a bit more suspense, not insta love but having a bit of a time at first.

I hope the second book is longer and has a bit more meat to it. Other than those issues, I had a blast reading it. It was just over too quick to get more than a taste.

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

There is nothing better than a good paranormal romance with two gorgeous men involved. There is something about the way that this author tells a story that will not only draw you in and keep your attention the whole time, but it will more than likely have you laughing your ass off at some point.

I came across Catherine a few months ago and she has already established a spot in my favorite authors list. There is just something about her characters, story and the way they mix with each other.

With this series I would suggest reading Whitedell Pride series book one first. You start there and then you will start seeing how all the characters cross over. I can’t stand to start a series and then it ends after a while. I want them to continue and it drives me nuts when they don’t. I am a big fan of these guys.

Craig used to work as a guard for scientist who did experiments on shifters. At first he just did his job, but that soon stopped. He found out that they were ware in their animal form as well as in their human form. So he switched and started helping them escape. On his last rescue, he had decided to stop. He was tired both physically as well as mentally.

Now he just needed to figure out where he was going to make his home. He wanted to stay with the pack but wasn’t sure it would be allowed. Then he found out that he was the mate to Thomas. What a shock that is considering Thomas was an ass.

Thomas had been forced to marry twenty years ago to his friend. However he had always known he was gay. He didn’t expect to ever tell anyone seeing as his alpha was an evil ass. Then his alpha got killed in a challenge. Now he had to make a choice. That all changed when he realized that Craig was his mate. Here he was married with kids, and had to decided.

I know by heart that Catherine’s books will always entertain me. When she puts out a book I am usually there to eat them up. They do have a bit of a serious tone to them but there is a touch of humor in them that I love. It caught my attention from the moment I started reading and kept it all the way to the end. It also gave me everything I could want in a book.

I would definitely recommend reading this book. Trust me it will keep you laughing, crying, loving and having fun.

Danny has been in love with Locke for over six years, but Locke didn’t return that love. Or so that is the way he thought. So when one of the guys they had saved, called them for help Danny was going to save the kid. The problem was Danny was not field trained, he was the computer expert. So to his surprise and pain, it was Locke that came to help him.

Locke wanted Danny but he was scared to death. Then when Danny went to help the kid, he knew he needed help. Danny would get his ass killed if he wasn’t careful and Locke wanted to be the one to help him and keep him safe. He was falling in love with the man, and knew once he did there was no going back.

This book gave me everything I could ask for in a story and so much more. I just wished that there were more to read, I absolutely hate having to wait for the next story. I loved this one and cannot wait for the next amazing story. I can honestly tell you that this is going to be one of those types of series. One that I will have to read over and over. I love the way all the feelings they felt was involved in this story.

It was the perfect story for me and I loved it. When Kelley puts out a book I am usually there to eat them up. Trust me it will keep you laughing, crying, loving and having fun.

The first time Jackson sees Dakota on his best friend Travis Heath’s farm, he wants the man. All of Jackson’s flirting gets him nowhere with the man though.

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

Hot damn April has written another amazing story. I had not heard of April Kelley till I started reading this series and I was amazed with the stories she comes up with.

The guys at the ranch have so much compassion and love that it makes you wish you were right there with them. I have books that are in my favorite list, and it wasn’t till I actually started reading this series, that I knew I needed to revise that list. Now I have my top five favorite paranormals and my top five contemporaries. This is one of my top five contemporaries.

There is something about this story that had me in tears. The fear that Dakota had felt for over three years makes you wish you were there to rip the man who hurt him apart. Three years ago he had basically a one night stand that turned dangerous. He had a stalker. Running has left him without a home and friends. He had to leave his family behind to stay alive. Now he has found a home that he wants to keep but fear keeps him from the man that he wants. Then he realizes that without Jackson, he was just an empty shell.

Jackson had always had one night stands, never settling with just one person. That stopped when Dakota came to work on the farm. He wanted him, but for some reason the man kept his distance from Jackson. Then the truth came out, and Jackson wants blood. He will do everything to keep his man safe.

It was the perfect story for me and I loved it. When Kelley puts out a book I am usually there to eat them up. Trust me it will keep you laughing, crying, loving and having fun.

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

The very first book in this series was the first book that I had read by this amazing author. I was impressed then and I am still impressed. There is just something about her characters, story and the way they mix with each other. The characters are beautifully written with big hearts, however if you cross them, they have no problem putting you down. They will protect their family and friends with their entire lives.

Burt was a great friend, even though his life was a bit hard with his family. His father was an ass, and he was hurt for it. He was a great friend to the alpha and many of the others, so when he went feral they were shocked. Throughout it, almost ferals are killed or at least imprisoned, but Chris knew he had to find a way around it. So he brought in Cree.

The thing with Cree is that he has the hots for Burt.
Cree has always been a whisperer and knew he could help Burt. He just hadn’t expected to fall for the guy. In his life he was told he could never mate, but with Burt’s help he finds out that not everything is the way it should be.

This is a very fast paced story. The only thing I find repetitive is the war with Rand. It just gets to be a bit old although the ending is a bit different. Even with that, the story was pretty much what I wanted. I was amazed with this story and look forward to reading more by Stephani. It has a touch of humor in a story that has a serious tone to it.

I would definitely recommend this book and the ones before it. It was amazing and I had so much fun reading it.

Still, he has no way to get away from Stan, his sister’s mate, or at least that’s what he thinks. Kameron, just like almost every other member of the pack, has known something was wrong with Zach for months, but as the Alpha, he didn’t have the possibility to do much about it while he had other and more pressing emergencies on his hands.

Now that everything seems to be fine finally or as close to it as it can be, he finally looks for Zach, and what he finds nearly crushes him. Even after Kameron rescues Zach and his sister from months of abuse, old and new problems rise on the horizon, problems that will put a strain on their budding relationship.

Will it be strong enough to resist even Kameron’s bad faith, or will the newly formed couple crumble under the pressure?

Reviewer: Lisa

I came across Catherine a few months ago and she has already established a spot in my favorite authors list. There is just something about her characters, story and the way they mix with each other. With this series I would suggest reading Whitedell Pride series book one first. You start there and then you will start seeing how all the characters cross over. I can’t stand to start a series and then it ends after a while. I want them to continue and it drives me nuts when they don’t. I am a big fan of these guys.

Zach knew when he was fourteen that Kameron was his mate. The problem was that in their pack it was not right for men to be together. Then his sister mated with one of the inner circle. Turns out that it was a bad idea and pretty much not hers. When she became pregnant Stan used his fears to control him. He feared for his sister’s safety and his mates. So he hid his scent and lived with the pain.

Kameron knew something was up, but he also remembered that Zach had left him. He had wanted to make him his mate even though they were not mated, but it isn’t until he saves Zach that the truth comes out. Things are about to get dicey and he needs to get over his fears of Zach taking off. The problem is there is still danger out there and they needed to keep everyone safe.

I would definitely recommend reading this book. Trust me it will keep you laughing, crying, loving and having fun.

Reviewer: Shorty

Review: This is book two in the Moonwar series. Continuing the cataclysmic events at the end of the first book Will, Ethan and others from the pub explore the devastation in search for survivors. What they find is so much worse.

I wish this was a longer story as I like the way things are going with Will and Ethan as well as the plot of the story. The aliens who have attacked earth seem cruel and unkind. The so-called authority now in place leaves a lot to be desired. The general seems like an ass to me that only cared about throwing his authority around.

Hot sex, as well as intense scenes at times, make a good read.

Blurb: Will the bond of blood outweigh the passions of the heart?
While sketching the Temple of Dendur, graduate student Carter Denwright meets—and is seduced by—a powerful vampire by the name of Alder. Though they were once kept secret from the human world, now everyone knows of their existence. Blinded by mistaken feelings for Alder, Carter allows himself to be drawn into his life. Too late, he realizes two things: one, Alder is vicious and cruel, and two, Carter’s true love is Alder’s brother, Freyr.

The attraction between Carter and Freyr is strong, but they must fight this feeling or face the wrath of Alder. Despite their best efforts, Alder discovers the truth, and punishes Carter, hiding him from Freyr in a cruel game of cat and mouse.

Freyr is not as strong as his brother, but he vows that he will find Carter again and will stop at nothing to get him back. Carter, caught in Alder’s cruel grip, commits an act of desperation that will change all their lives forever. The question is: can Freyr find Carter, and is the bond between him and Carter enough to break Alder’s hold and spoil his plans to ruin them both?

Review: An awesome story that portrays the lives of two vampire brothers Alder and Freyr. Both different as night and day and the human caught between them, Carter. Alder was very controlling and evil in my opinion. The thing this man put human through was horrifying. I wanted to seriously hurt him for all the pain he caused Carter. His evil plans and the revelation of things past that he had a hand in left me stunned speechless.

Freyr was the complete opposite of his brother. Sweet at times and kind. When he sees Carter he knows he wants him. I found it so sweet that Freyr tried his best to make Carter happy no matter the cost. He was truly a knight in shining armor when Carter needed him the most at times.

The rest of Freyr’s crew were strong and sure of themselves yet funny in a way I didn’t expect. There were some amusing scenes that had me laughing. There was such a unique blend of cultures in the story that I was amazed. I hope to see more of them in future books with a little more detail about each of them.

Amazing and beautiful details of the artifacts and countryside in Germany as well as the castle itself made me feel like I was actually there seeing it with my own eyes. The artifacts and pieces that Freyr had accumulated over his long life amazed me. I loved the details surrounding some of them even though some of the artifacts Alder had were macabre in there display I still enjoyed reading about them.

This book is the perfect blend of drama, action, adventure, mystery and love. It was well written and immediately grabs your attention from the start drawing you into the story until you have to finish it to find out what happens. I highly recommend this fantastic book it is a must read for everyone. I am looking forward to what other stunning story the author has in store for the next book.

Fantastic read with some hot sex to spice things up that set the pages on fire. I absolutely loved this book.

Blurb: Jackal shifter Jake has always had an affinity for the sciences, but Trevor’s toxic mixture is way beyond anything he’s had to deal with in the past. How can just one jackal find the answer? Stranger things had happened…a lone jackal living in a coven of vampires, for one.

After a long struggle, Jake has finally done it—he’s figured out the solution to the blood poisoning and the drugging smoke Trevor used to dose both sides of the Blood Moon Pack Alliance. Excited, he calls the three mated pairs he knows who will appreciate the find most, starting with the two vampire elders that took him in when he was lost and gave him a home.

But things aren’t always rosy. Just because others are getting their happy endings—or beginnings—doesn’t mean he is any closer to his own. In fact, he may be further away than ever before.

On the other hand, Elders Lavi and Van take great advantage of the new cure and take Jacko on a flight to remember, while Ashlock and Zeke get creative in a tattoo studio. Remy and Skylar take a very expensive shopping trip, and Micah and Rylan deal with the repercussions of the intense power spike from the alpha pair completing the bond.

Review: Each book in the Blood Moon Pack Alliance collection features a different romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order. There is nothing better than a good paranormal romance with two gorgeous men involved.

Jake is a pretty damn good scientist and has finally figured out how to fix the poison that has made it hard for the guys to mate. He is a bit scared of things from the way I read it but he has a great big heart. He knows who his mate is, but to bad his mate is an ass. The good news he has figured out how to help his friends with their problems.

This was the strangest book in this series. I mean other than the fact that Jake helped his friends, you get just a few pages of his own story. I am glad to hear about the others but not enough to like the story better. I was a bit disappointed in this book. It felt like instead of the series moving on, it went back a step. I can’t wait to see if the next book gives me what I want.

Pint-Sized Protector by Charlie Richards

Publisher: Extasy Books (August 1, 2015)
Heat Level: Moderate
Heart Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥5 Hearts
Blurb: Out of the Cage: Learning from your past makes for a better future.

Cayden Rochette works as a negotiator for the Stone Ridge wolf pack. For decades he has worked behind the scenes with his alpha to secure peace for the pack’s future, which often leads to long stretches away from home. After one such assignment, he discovers a cat shifter staying in his house as his brothers’ guest. One sniff is all it takes to realize the small feline is his mate.

Still, the Andean mountain cat is a shy shifter recently rescued from years of torture at the hands of scientists. The cat hasn’t even shifted, yet, even after staying with the wolves for weeks. With a little help from the mate-pull, Cayden earns the cat’s curiosity—if not his trust—enough for him to shift, anyway. That opens up a whole new world of questions. Ajax grew up away from shifters and knows little of their ways.

Can Cayden convince the solitary shifter of the benefits of staying with him? –

Review: Each book in the Wolves of Stone Ridge collection features a different romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order. There is nothing better than a good paranormal romance with two gorgeous men involved. There is something about the way that Charlie tells a story that will not only draw you in and keep your attention the whole time but it will have you in tears at some part.

Charlie has always been one of my favorite authors for a quite a while now that she is one of those types that would be instant buy without even reading the blurb. There is just something about her characters, story and the way they mix with each other. With these stories it gives you a mate that has at some point been hurt. The alpha of the pair feels so much for his mate, he will do everything to protect his mate and keep him safe.

Cayden is the smallest of his brothers yet he is the more dominate of the three. He is strong in body and mind. After a long times away from home, he is just happy to be home. Then he finds that they have taken in a strange shifter, then to top it off it is his mate.

Ajax is a very cute little cat shifter. I haven’t even really heard of these types of cats but took one look at the cover and yeah he is adorable. He is an Andean mountain cat, who has had his life uprooted and screwed around. He had lost his mother at a young age, then captured by the scientist. Now free, he is waiting for the other shoe to drop. He just had not expected the sexy wolf that he is attracted to.
