Lisa’s Review: ♥♥♥♥♥ 5 Hearts, Heat Level: Low

This is one of those series that must be read in order. Trust me you will fall in love with these guys.

Cody had part of his gift when he was a child. First it was like a feeling, then when their pack was killed he was getting visions left and right. He was also getting the pain from them just like he was the one that it was happening to. The thing was when he got a vision he left the place he was on and basically went somewhere else. He was afraid that one day he would not come back from it, somedays he wished it would happen. Then he realized the wolf that they found was his mate. A mate that could help him.

Dylon has known since he was a teenager that his mate would be a seer and that he would need him. He had been caught ratting out the pack he was out, the problem was he had no memory of it. Not that it helped him, it got him beaten almost to death. Then he comes to only to find out the ones who saved him were the ones that he was suppose to kill. And that the pack who ordered the hit, were the same ones that killed Cody’s family and pack.

This has some pretty good surprises in this book. I was pleased at how well this book turned out. Exciting with danger and lots of action are just a bit of what you get in this book. And trust me, you are going to love Dylon’s mom. She is a hoot. This story caught my attention from the start and kept it all the way to the end. It gave me everything I could want in a story and so much more.

I had a blast reading this and look forward to reading the next book.

Shorty’s Review: ♥♥♥♥♥ 4 1/2 Hearts, Heat Level: Moderate

Cody is struggling with his seer gift as it has intensified. he is on the verge of giving up. Ex enforcer Dylon is badly beaten and on the verge of death when he comes to the Blackwood pack. I enjoyed the meeting between these two. The struggles they each have been through are a testiment to how strong they really are.

The series continues evolve in a great series with each brother being a focus and the gifts explained. I liked the details surrounding the brothers as the come in better focus. Cody and Dylon amazed me with their passion. I loved they helped each other when it was needed.

Love all the twists and turns that seem to just keep coming the further the series goes. I will not be pained in the least when the bad guys finally get whats coming to them. I will revel in the fact they will be no more. I despise them with a passion. The harm they have inflicted was so beyond bad that I have no words to describe it.

Great read.

Lisa’s Review: ♥♥♥♥ 4 Hearts, Heat Level: Low

Colton and his brothers are the last remaining wolves from their pack. Murdered by an uncle for greed. They were alpha’s who were also omega’s. His brother was given the gift to have a child. Colton had finished over three years for his nursing degree before they had to run. It was the only thing he ever wanted to do, and now he might have the choice. A choice that is the most powerful of gifts to have, now all he had to do is to believe it.

Ian was a doctor and was pretty good at what he did. His whole life he believed that he was a gamma wolf, but it would seem there is some hidden truths in him. He has spent time talking to Colton on the phone but believes that they are mates. He never wanted to mate for fear that it would take away from what he wanted to do. Then Colton is kidnapped and being sold, he would do everything in his powers to save him.

This story was quite a bit better than the first book. It was exciting and danger filled all the way. It also was very unique in more than just one way. The characters just seemed to flow together perfectly, but damn Ian’s wolf is nutty. I love how they are so much closer to their wolves then many shifter stories are.

I found myself entranced with this book and can’t wait to get my hands on the next book to see if it is even better than this one.

I had a lot of fun reading it and would definitely recommend it.

Shorty’s Review:♥♥♥♥♥ 4 1/2 Hearts, Heat Level: Moderate

Loved this story about Colton and Ian. We are given more insight to the characters and details are revealed as to the why of things past. I loved that Ian wanted to ride to the rescue when Colton is kidnapped.

Colton struggles with his missed dream of being a nurse and settles for helping animals instead. When Dr, Ian comes in the sparks fly between the two then Colton is kidnapped.

I loved just about everything about this intriguing struggle of good and evil. Twists and turns take the reader on a journey of unimaginable power.

The only thing that confused me was why the dire warning in the first book if there were going to be no consequences? I would have thought kidnapping would be in the category of anything bad happening to the Blackwood pack members still living but that’s me.

Great read.

Dire Warning by Mary Rundle (Dual Review)

Title: Dire Warning

Series: Blackwood Pack 01

Author: Mary Rundle

Genre: Paranormal, Fantasy

Publisher: Dragonheart, LLC. (October 23, 2017)

Heat Level: Low

Heart Rating: ♥♥♥ 3 Hearts

Blurb: Steel, one of the last Dire Wolves on earth, has searched more than 100 years for the special mate promised by the Fates. Discouraged after meeting his latest prospect, he sees a naked hitchhiker on his way home who’s everything he’d envisioned the man of his dreams would be. His wolf and body tell him he’s found his fated mate but why can’t he pick up his scent?

Robbed of his car, clothes and money, Jackson, Alpha of the Blackwood Pack has no choice but to thumb a lift, frantic to get home to his six brothers. He’s been protecting them from a rival pack who massacred most of his family and wants to finish off the rest. When Steel rolls down his window, Jackson knows he also has found his fated mate but it would be too dangerous to claim him with his pack under attack.

After the intervention of an Oracle and a Witch, Jackson discovers why the Fates made him unique-just for Steel. Navigating the mine field this revelation brings, Jackson and Steel must figure out how to make their relationship work while dealing with forces determined to kill the Blackwood pack – and them.

Reviewer: Lisa & Shorty

Lisa’s Review: ♥♥♥ 3 Hearts, Heat Level: Low

Jackson and his brothers were the only survivors of their pack. They were special wolves and really had no clue. Jackson was the oldest which made him the alpha but he sure didn’t act like one. Which explained how he ended up hitchhiking buttass naked. What he had not expected was the man who picked him up, his mate.

Steel was an alpha wolf but he was also one of the four last dire wolves. His mother was the voice of fate and had told him something no male wolf would ever believe. That his mate would be the one to have his child.

Too bad the ones who killed Steel’s pack, wanted the rest of them dead. It is going to take a miracle in more ways then one. Now with this pack it is very long winded and goes off on things that were not really needed. So much so that it was harder to get into the story and even harder to finish the book. The characters were somewhat weird and didn’t really connect at all with them. There is great potential in this story but for me it was just overblown with a lot of added in stuff that could have been left out.

The story is unique and fresh with the idea of white wolves that are not just alpha but also omega. I did enjoy the fact that they could get pregnant but wished that the story was not dropped right in the middle. I don’t care for books that don’t have closure with each book and cliff hangers are not my idea of fun. Most times it makes me leave the book and drop the series, but I will make my decision on the next book.

Over all the story is a good read.

Shorty’s Review: ♥♥♥ 3 Hearts, Heat Level: Explicit

I really wanted to love this story of an Alpha whose pack and family were attacked and massacred while him and his brothers are away at college. This story start of well as we see Steele and Jackson meet to discover they are fated mates. The intensity between these two was off the charts.

The want and need to discover the culprits of the massacre and to get back what was theirs was interesting. The huge cast of characters was a lot to take in all at once but they were important to understand how everything began. However, the many POV’s, inner dialogue’s and the overabundance of sex scenes, not to mention talking about them made me seriously speed read the book.

I am not a fan of more sex in a book when there is no need for it.

The overall feel is more porn like to me as opposed to a well rounded story with a balance of things throughout. I hope Steel and Jackson’s story will continue in the next book as I didn’t feel as though it was completely finished. I did enjoy the revelations that came to light in this story and the fact the book was well written.

I feel it would have much better if some of the sex had been cut out and inner dialogue’s slimmed.

Wireless

Skin to skin contact is illegal. Sex? A felony. Insulated suits and gloves keep people from even the most platonic touches. Citizens line up in droves at simhouses for their rationed, prescribed orgasms in virtual reality machines.

Keith Borden has worked in a simhouse for years, and he’s never been tempted to break the strict no-contact laws… until Aiden Maxwell comes along. The attractive and dangerously flirtatious patient invites him into the seedy underground where people engage in real, wireless sex. Though Keith stands to lose his career and his freedom, he’s curious and Aiden is irresistible.

From the moment he sets foot in the wireless lounge, Keith is in a world of flesh and fantasy. He’s hooked. On the sex, on the atmosphere, and most of all, on Aiden. Years of keeping everyone in his world at arm’s length have left Keith craving a human touch, and Aiden offers all the contact—scorching sex, gentle affection, and everything in between—Keith can handle.

That is, until an unexpected act of betrayal throws Keith’s world into chaos, and he finds himself more alone than he ever imagined possible…

This 55,000-word novel was previously published, and has been extensively revised and rewritten from its first edition.

Series: The Apocalypse Shifters Canine Pack 01

Author: Wolf Conan

Genre: Paranormal

Length: Novella (138pgs)

Publisher: Wolf Conan (February 14, 2018)

Heat Level: Moderate

Heart Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥ 5 Hearts

Blurb: An apocalyptic event may be what it takes to reunite an Alpha wolfdog shifter with the feline omega he’s always loved…

Shifters have historically had to hide themselves from humans, or “plainskins.” When a disease turns almost all of humanity into wandering undead, civilization as they know it is wiped from the face of the planet. Able to shift at will into animal form and immune to the disease, shifters quickly rise to the top of the food chain and begin to rebuild the world, forming territories and towns based on their respective species.

Guy is a wolfdog shifter, feared by both species. He fell in love with his childhood friend Sean, an omega and cat shifter who was too good for Guy and his controversial heritage. Things have changed with the new era, and now that Guy has taken charge as the Alpha he was born to be, his life finally seems to be coming together–but there’s always been the void left by the omega he lost, and Sean still belongs to another man.

When the omega comes back into Guy’s life, free from the brutal lion shifter who treated him like an object, Guy realizes he’s getting a second chance. With newfound confidence, the Alpha makes his move, unaware that the demons in his past are lurking just around the corner…

This shifter romance contains mature subject material that follows MPREG tropes and may have a rough road leading up to the inevitable happily-ever-after. Adult audiences only.

Reviewer: Shorty

Review: Best friends Guy and Sean were torn apart when Sean’s parents promised him to the Feline Alpha Justin. Years later after the world has been devastated by a virus which turned most humans into a zombie Sean is given to Guy and his pack as a gift.

Sean does what his parents want him to do but is miserable. When he’s given to Guy he’s nervous about the way things ended and the lie he told. But they have something worse to worry about. Surviving zombies, betrayal and death become top of the list when Justin devises a plan to get a key to Eden from Guy.

Loved this story. Action, drama, suspense and romance are all in abundance.

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.

Highly recommended.

Heart Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥ 5 Hearts

Blurb: Rylee had no idea where his life was going. He had a job he hated, a mate that wouldn’t make the move to claim him, a dragon that seemed to dislike him immensely, and his brothers were so busy with their own mates he had no one to talk to about any of it. Instead, Rylee made some hard decisions on his own. One of which could cause him to lose everyone he holds dear…including his own life.

Taj had no idea what was going to become of his mate and himself. Rylee still had not said he wanted to make their mating official, his maharishi wasn’t helping him woo Rylee in that direction, and now Rylee decided to defend a member of a rival biker gang accused of murder.

Spirit had no idea how to talk to a human but knew he had to figure it out quickly. He had Taj’s dragon heat getting worse every day, Rylee putting his life in danger trying to prove himself to no one but himself, and he had to do everything he could to keep both men alive so they could become one.

Will these three find the answers to their dilemmas, or will they take too long and lose whatever chance they have to become one?

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

When working for the defence you don’t always get to help the innocent. However that was what Rylee wanted. He didn’t want to defend rich asshats who bribe their way through the courts and were as guilty as hell. So when his boss wanted him to defend a creep he had gotten off the last time, that was it, it was time to call it quits. He wanted a fresh start in a way, but he also wanted the one man he knew was his.

Taj was just taking his time and letting Rylee get used to being free before mating him. Although dragon’s do have a different name for it. However their Sentience was attracting some dangerous creatures, but Rylee was bound and determined to get the man out of a murder charge, but there are some pretty good surprises in store for you with this book.

I could not figure out what happened to Deak in the end, but I will have to go back and read it again to see if I could figure it out. Excitement, adventure, action, danger and some hot sexy times are just a bit of what you get in this book. The characters are smoking hot and damn I wish I had a dragon shifter for a mate. This story caught my attention from the start and kept it all the way to the end. It gave me everything I could want in a story and so much more.

I had a blast reading this story and can’t wait to get my hands on the next book.

Review: Dimitri is the guy you go to when you need a loved one ready to bury. He is the magic of the place, not really he is just that good. He is a Komodo dragon shifter who keeps picking out the wimps to date. That is until the brother of one of his bodies shows up. Miles is a very sexy lion shifter who just so happens to be in the closet. Now he has been sent with his sister’s body to get her ready for her funeral. Creepy is how it sounds, but hey these two are mates.

Ok for one this story was a blast to read. The parents were a hoot and gave me a good laugh. Now when I came across this author, which was this morning, I read two of her other stories. The words were similar and so were many of the practices in this book as in those other books. Which tells me this author focuses on certain things. Which is neither good nor bad, but makes the books a bit off to me.

The editorial part of the book was off, there were many mistakes that could be found in the book. The idea for the book was exceptional, but this author needs better betas who should have caught the problems. Also there was no conflict in it, it was like being programmed to say yes and cool all the time. Too happy from everyone in the end. No real chemistry, just instamate and instasex from the moment they met.

Now for all those issues, this story does have potential. I actually had a blast reading it, but it really needs to be fixed up to make it better.

Blurb: In less than a week, Bennet will finally return to the Shield Regiment, leaving behind the Gyrfalcon, his father, his friends… and Flynn. Promotion to Shield Major and being given command of a battle group despite the political fallout from Makepeace the year before is everything he thought he wanted. Everything he’s worked towards for the last three years. Except for leaving Flynn. He really doesn’t want to leave Flynn.

There’s time for one last flight together. A routine mission. Nothing too taxing, just savouring every moment with the best wingman, the best friend, he’s ever had. That’s the plan.

Bennet should know better than to trust to routine because what waits for them out there will change their lives forever.

Reviewer: Shorty

Review: I love an author who is not afraid to take out characters. Sometimes that is called for in a story. The author does a wonderful job in this story as the fate of everyone rests in their hands. The story was wonderful. Edge of your seat battles and twists and turns that took me by surprise. The betrayal, I never saw coming so was pleasantly blindsided.

It was a perfect blend of chaos, harmony, betrayal and suspense all woven into one exciting book.

The overall feel is one of completeness. I loved everything about the descriptions and backgrounds as the story progressed. The series has no shortage of information given as to why certain things happened and why.

Flynn and Bennet have come so far together in this series. I loved their characters and trials they have been through to get to this exciting conclusion. I am sad to see this end but that is just the way it is with a good series.

Great read.

Reviewer:  Lisa

Review:  Each book in the Coalition Training Academy 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 is a branch off of the Lost Shifter series and is a young adult type of book.  Which means pretty much no sex, because they are kids. 

I have read the Lost Shifters series as well as the Wayne County Wolves and Assassin’s Loyalty series, which are branch offs as well.  So when I saw this I knew I had to grab it, however I did not take into consideration that the soldiers were just kids, so there was no juicy sex in it.  However Stephani does not let her reader’s down.

Jax’s parents are not easy to get along with.  They are shifters but his father hates that part of them.  He is a mean asshat who makes Jax’s life hell.  Now it is time to decide a human college or the academy.  He wants to be a soldier and will do everything he can to get it.  He is a surprise though, even as a lion shifter he is on the small side.  

As with most kids when they make a decision, whether it is right or wrong, their hearts take on a bit.  He fears that he will let the coalition down because he is small and can’t fight.  However he is going to be very surprised and so will you.

I get a kick out of the characters in these stories; they are entertaining to say the least.  Take Shane, he is small with an angel face, and is a skilled assassin.  Never let size determine you future.  I loved this story although I wished the kids were not kids, but hey cannot get everything we want.  I just hope to hear about them in the future when they find their mates.  

I had a lot of fun with this and cannot wait to get my hands on the next book.  I would definitely recommend this story and the previous series as well.

Reviewer: Lisa

Review: Each book in the Eternal Flame 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 also suggest reading Eternal Flames Maddox series as it is connected.

When Rory was at college and his older brother over sea’s, the worst thing that could happen had happened to Rory. It left him afraid to get close to any man and even the idea of sex had given him severe panic attacks. Now there is a serial rapist out there and one of his good friends had been attacked. Robby had been rescued before the worst could happen, but Rory was determined to stop the man. He was human but knew of the paranormal world, but he never expected to be a mate to one let alone two men.

Snake was human and a teammate of Rory’s, but it wasn’t until Ozcog showed up to protect Rory, that he found out that he was Ozzie’s mate as well as Rory’s. But their little mate was hiding something, and boy was it something big. Their hearts hurt but was determined to protect Rory as well as the town.

As always this story caught my attention from the start and kept it all the way to the end. It gave me everything that I could want in a book and so much more. Action packed, danger filled, exciting and fascinating, with some pretty hot sexy scenes is just a bit of what you get with this book. Now I will admit that the amount of characters in this story can make it a bit hard to follow but it does help me to read the previous books once more before reading their new one. I loved the characters and their quirky attitudes, but will also admit that Timmy is still my favorite.

I had quite a bit of fun reading this and cannot wait to get my hands on the next book.
