REVIEW – MATE BOND BY JENNIFER ASHLEY

MATE BOND
Together but unbound, they must learn what it means to love completely, in the latest novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Wild Wolf.

To cement the leadership of his North Carolina Shiftertown, Bowman O’Donnell agreed to a “mating of convenience.” Two powerful wolf shifters, he and Kenzie keep the pack in order and are adored by all. Bowman would do anything to protect Kenzie, for in each other’s arms they’ve found far more than friendship. But as strong as their attachment is, they still haven’t formed the elusive mate bond—the almost magical joining of true mates.

Now with a monster ravaging the countryside and threatening the Shiftertown community, some in the pack fear that a pair without a true mate bond isn’t strong enough to lead. Bowman and Kenzie will have to rely on their instinctive trust in one another to save their Shifters—and the ensuing battle will either destroy them or give them the chance to seize the love they’ve always craved.

BOOK DESCRIPTION COURTESY OF AMAZON

MATE BOND is a high adrenaline suspense with Alpha overload. The characters and the story line are well-developed. Kenzie and Bowman have been married for quite a while, but have not experienced that deep, true mate bond. Kenzie knows that if Bowman feels the mate bond with someone else, he will leave her. When they are attacked at a bar by an unknown monster. Somebody has created a mishmash of different creatures and is very strong. They have to find who has created this monster, without losing anyone. When they really need it, the mate bond will get them through. This is a great story and recommend it to everyone. I give MATE BOND 5/5 STARS.

REVIEW – BLOOD SLAVE BY KATHLEEN COLLINS

blood slave
Can she find a killer in a town where the basest desires are allowed to run free?

There are zombies in the Dead Zone and Juliana Norris is sent to take care of the problem. And for there to be zombies, there had to be bodies. When vampires are found to be the culprits, Juliana is sent undercover in the red light district of Kansas City. Lying to her mate, Thomas Kendrick, isn’t something she wants to do, but she’s in another vampire’s territory and Thomas would not be pleased. Besides, she’s more than capable of doing the job and she needs to prove it to everyone. Most of all herself.

Charles Morgan is in control of the Kansas City area, making a rich living off his various enterprises. Juliana goes undercover at the strip club Lust and gets sucked into his dark, decadent world. More victims turn up and the Agency is positive they’ve got their man, but Juliana is not so sure. When the Agency refuses to listen, she reluctantly turns to Thomas for help. He intervenes but finds Juliana unaware of the danger she is in and discovers she may just be too deep for him to save.

REVIEW- WHEN A BETA ROARS BY EVE LANGLAIS


How degrading. Stuck babysitting a woman because his alpha said so. As Pride Beta, he has better things to do with his time, like washing his impressive mane, hunting down thugs for fun, and chasing tail—sometimes his own if his lion is feeling playful.

But his babysitting job takes an unexpected turn when the woman he’s assigned guard duty over turns out to be his mate.

A female threatened by an outside wolf pack.

A woman he wants to call his own.

A mate who doesn’t fall for his charm.

Usually Beta’s leave the roaring to the Pride’s alpha, but in this case given his level of frustration, he might have to make an exception. And if anyone doesn’t like it, they can kiss his furry tail.
Rawr!

REVIEW – OWL AND THE CITY OF ANGELS BY KRISTI CHARISH


The wild second adventure for unforgettable antiquities thief Owl—a modern-day “Indiana Jane” who reluctantly navigates the hidden supernatural world—from the pen of rising urban fantasy star Kristi Charish. For fans of Kim Harrison, Jim Butcher, Jennifer Estep, Jenn Bennett, and the like.

Alix Hiboux, better known as Owl, international antiquities thief for hire, is settling into her new contract job for Vegas mogul Mr. Kurosawa, a red dragon with a penchant for ancient, supernatural artifacts. And now he has his sights set on some treasures of the mysterious Syrian City of the Dead that are sitting in a recluse’s private collection.

There’s just one wrinkle. To stop the resurrection of an undead army that could wreak havoc on Los Angeles, Owl must break into a heavily guarded archaeological sight in one of the most volatile regions in the world. A detour through Libya and a run-in with Somali pirates sends the clock ticking hastily toward total paranormal disaster.

Meanwhile, Alexander and the Paris vampires have stopped stalking Owl’s apartment, but they have by no means forgotten their death grudge against her. To top everything off, Owl finds out the hard way that there is nothing heavenly about the City of Angels..

I was given a copy of this book by Netgalley for an honest review.

OWL AND THE CITY OF ANGELS just gets better, and better. The characters and story line are very well-developed. Owl is in trouble again. The IAA is after her for stealing several artifacts, but there is one catch, she did not do it. Yes, she stole a few, but not the ones they are accusing her for. She escapes Egypt and is determined to find who is out there stealing artifact in her name. After careful research they trace it back to the city of the dead. Someone is stealing cursed artifacts and selling them. Now, Owl must return those artifacts. During one of her retrievals, she accidentally touches one of the artifacts and is cursed. Now the clock is ticking and she must find a way to lift the curse or die. Oh, and she has to stop the people stealing the artifacts also. I love this series!! It is like Indiana Jones and Tomb Raider all in one. I also love her cat Captain, he steals the show. If you have not picked up the first book in this series, I really urge you to do so. You will love it. I give OWL AND THE CITY OF ANGELS 5/5 STARS.

REVIEW- WHEN AN ALPHA PURRS BY EVE LANGLAIS


A lion’s pride isn’t defined only by those he commands but also resides with his hair, so when a human dares to butcher Arik’s mane, he gets his revenge–and claims her as his mate.

A billionaire CEO and leader of the largest East Coast pride, Arik is a ladies man and a lion. Used to commanding others, and obedience, he can’t believe it when a hairdresser with tempting curves chops off a hunk of his precious mane.

But her biggest mistake is in running from him.

Run as fast as you can, little mouse, because this cat loves to chase–and pounce.

Oh, and he also likes to nibble on tender bits. What he doesn’t expect is to fall for a human woman, a woman who can make the impossible happen because everyone knows lions can’t purr…until now.

BOOK DESCRIPTION COURTESY OF AMAZON

WHEN AN ALPHA PURRS is a Purrrrfect start to a new series. From the first chapter the antics of Arik and Kira had me laughing. Arik is the Alpha of his Pride, and he is also very vain about his hair. When he goes to get his hair cut, his barber, is out-of-town and he cannot wait until he comes back. He demands Kira to cut his hair, when she is cutting his hair, she  lops off a larger piece. This leaves a gap in his hair.  She flees his wrath, and he follows. He senses that she is his mate. He looses her and goes to the office with a hat on. He goes back later and asks her nicely to correct the mistake. She does it because she feels bad that she did that to one of her grandfather’s clients. He is even better looking with shorter hair. When he asks her to dine with him that evening she tries to leave town. He catches her and takes her out anyway. When he takes her back to her apartment above the shop, he smell a wolf has recently been there. There was also written on the wall of the shop a warning for Kira. She lets Arik know that she left because of an ex-boyfriend who became obsessed with her, and was abusive. Now he has followed her here. Arik must keep Kira safe all the while trying to neutralize the threat to her. The antics of the other pride members, especially the females of the pride, will have you laughing out loud. I love Eve Langlais’ books. I give WHEN AN ALPHA PURRS 5/5 STARS.
