This is Tim's story and wow what a story it is. It is different from Noah and Lucus's story because Tim's true Alpha is a civilian and very young. Jeremy is just coming into his own as a True Alpha and Tim helps him with his transition. I loved them both , I really couldn't get into Tim's brothers (Adam's)  story, I'm guessing more will be brought up in later books. In this book he was just too full of self-pity. I loved how Noah and Lucus were a real part of this book. it was really interesting to find out that a true Alpha has to deal with a second puberty and how hard it is to rein in those hormones! This really brings about some smokin' hot sex.  And at 7643 locations this book is well worth the price... **** slight spoiler**** Oh the scene where Jeremy finally fights for his own pack is so thrilling, and so full of tension I was biting my nails! Afterward  Jeremy takes the lead in their lovemaking, You can feel how much these two care for each other. Jeremy is all grown up he has come into his Alpha powers and  finally has his own pack ,and his own mate. I want the next book NOW!!!!! I am soooo very glad these books are a series . I don't mind paying more for a book , when you get quality writing and a nice long engrossing read!!

I hated Gavin in the beginning of this book but by the end I loved him. In his own way he is trying to take care of Lyla but cannot overcome his alpha tendencies. This book was totally hot! Can wait for the final book.

Omg where do I start! I cant come up with the right words to explain how much I loved this book.
Abi might look like she has an edge, but she is so sweet, loyal and passionate. She is such a strong woman and doesn't take crap. Eli is the kind of tough and harsh Alpha that I love.
Abi is beautiful and Eli can't get her out of his head... But there's one problem, Eli grew up with no love from his parents and has a hard time with commitment. Plus, hes the towns outsider Can Abi be the one to make his heart beat?
Eli and Abi are a great couple and they just heated up the pages of this book. I really liked them and felt they were perfect together. It is a fun, seriously hot book that is perfect to read after a tough day in the real world.
The love scenes are brilliantly written - they are varied, passionate and fabulously kinky full of lust and heavy emotions.
I was more than pleased with the development of the love story. It felt quite natural and had genuine emotion.
Definitely worth the read...

Hammers Fall by Laurie Roma has all the elements I really love in a story.  A really tough but sweet alpha hero and a strong but sweet heroine I wanted to be.  Hammer is every girls dream of the perfect bad boy; he is tattooed, rides a motor cycle, and is built well very nicely to say the least.  He has a tough guy image but under all that he is really just a man looking for the love of his life.  Enter Kalista. She is a baker, and everyone knows the fastest way to a mans heart is through his stomach.  But she is just as sweet as the creations she makes.  I really enjoyed the humor and sizzle this book had to offer.  If I had to say this book had a flaw, I would say I have to say I wanted more.  I really think this is a great introduction to what promises to be a really exciting and fun new series.  I know I will want to read whatever Ms. Roma has out next.  The love, humor, and connection she has to her world and the reader makes her an unforgettable author you just have to read.

Oh my! I think my ultimate book boyfriend just changed to Zeek. What a strong, alpha softy! The man is so vicious and bold but then along comes Rookie and their pull is instant. I kept yelling what are you two doing???? The chemistry between these two is off the charts but they can't stay away from one another. She has a point to prove being a new deputy and he humors her. Then they can't deny one another any longer. This book was so good that it will stick with me forever.

Holy Hotness!!!! My mind is still reeling from the intense connection between Sara and Peter and how Ms. Zaires developed it masterfully. This book punched all my hot spots: it covered Peter's tragic past and gave some insight into his mental state. Peter is a solid, methodical man that can be extremely gentle and caring and yet so damn dark, dominant and alpha. He's a sexy beast and Sara definitely brings out his obsessive stalker tendencies in the most exciting way. It is extremely difficult to imagine how Sara could ever let the assassin that played a role in her husband's death into her life, but Peter warned her she had no choice, and then he steam rolled in and took over. Sara is not a push over, she is smart, somewhat isolated and a pragmatist. She is attracted to Peter and utterly terrified of him too. I loved the slow build to sex. All the heated, angsty scenes made my heart race. Yes, Peter is a dark dominant man, but in comparison to Capture and Twist Me series alpha men, he is decidedly more sweet but still retaining that brooding, alpha personality. The ending set up wonderfully for the next book. I can't wait to find out what Peter has planned for Sara and watch all the ways Sara asserts herself and makes him work for it!

Dire Needs
Reviewed by Francesca & posted at Under the Covers Book Blog

I am really enthralled by the Dires world.  The dires are basically werewolves but they are more.  Sexier, more alpha, more badass, more tortured.  Right up my alley!  Their job is to protect humans from werewolves and cover their tracks to keep their existence under cover.  They are immortal and lonely.  Oh and did I mention they have a sexy tattoo of their wolf?  Well, it's like a natural tattoo when they change their first time they wolf comes out.  Love that!

This book is all about Rifter.  He is the leader of the Dires.  He is at a point where he is almost ready to die.  Too bad they can't.'  He goes into a bar to find a female shifter to spend the night with but ends up very attracted to a human female.  He normally doesn't go for humans, ever.  But Gwen is it for him tonight.  And she takes him up on his offer because she has actually just being given very little time to live.  Some rare disease that causes her to have seizures.

Gwen will come to play an important role in the Dire Pack dynamic when they find out who she is, but the chemistry between her and Rifter was off the charts great!

The Dires are now fighting against Seb, and I have to say I kind of really like this bad guy.  Something about him and his past that I just want to know more, know his motives, know what makes him tick.

Now onto my complaint, yes I have one.  Even though there's some action, there's romance and there are quite a few smexy scenes oozing alphaness, I feel this book suffered from a major case of First Book Syndrome.  There was a lot of information in the book that I thought at times was not needed.  Maybe it will be important info in the future but it overwhelmed this book.

The rest of the Dires are a very intriguing bunch, I really can't wait to read their stories.  I am kind of the most intrigued by Vice, and he seems like he has the most issues at times.  I look forward to reading more about him as the series goes on.

I really liked the whole process of the mating between Rifter and Gwen, it wasn't without emotion and a lot of drama around them, and towards the end of this book it was nonstop and had my full attention.

I am a huge fan of Lisa Oliver's Gay Shifter MC Men (read all the Cloverleah Pack Series and see what I mean). I also read other MC books and give me a man with long hair, tats, black leather and a Harley anyday and I am a happy reader. Lone Alpha Wolf Shifter Trent Beaumont has two giant secrets that are destroying him slowly but surely, he prefers men to women and he is a wolf shifter riding with an all human, homophobic Motorcycle Club. Along comes his fated mate, the adorable omega Marly Miles who prefers the freedom to be his lovable twink self rather than submit to the abuse he would receive in any pack since he is a male omega who is also gay. I have read this story 3 times and every time, I laugh out loud at the dynamics between tall, dark, brooding and closet loving Trent and the sassy, finger wagging in your face Marley who is very much out, proud and ready to kick some human ass when he knows he can get away with it. There are a few surprises in the middle of book when Trent's MC President has a heart to heart with him. Good times! Read it and enjoy. PS.. I love the name Marly Miles..it fits the character perfectly.

The Loneliest Alpha
The MacKellen Alphas
Book 1
T. A. Grey

The author, T.A. Grey writes a compelling, paranormal, werewolf, romance that grabs and keeps the readers attention.  The sexual attraction/tension between the two lead characters is vibrant, robust, and electrifying.

Alicia Clarkson (introduced in the first chapter) is the leading female character in this wonderful paranormal romance story.  Her personality is such that she sticks up for others when they are in trouble. It is that personality trait gets her into the pickle of the theme of this book.

Gavin MacKellen (introduced in the latter part of the first chapter of the book) is the lead male character in this exciting tale.  He is also the new Alpha of the Oregon pack of werewolves that Alicia Clarkson was sent to as a potential mate.

Alicia Clarkson is a creative clothes designer who sells her productions online.  Gavin MacKellen is a scared man who strongly believes no woman can possibly love him.  Not only does he have facial scars, he thinks his personality is rather boring.

Gavin keeps Alicia locked up in a small room at first; he thinks she will run away if she catches sight of his scared face.  Events unfold to the point where Alicia is finally allowed free reign of the house and is given all her designing supplies from her home in Arizona.  Gavin is so entranced by Alicias beautiful face that he tries to hide his face away from her for as long as possible, but this action only drives Alicia to angry distraction because she eventually finds his personality and the way he treats her very endearing.

Alicia is in danger, someone is trying to kill her.  Gavin must work to unravel the clues which will reveal the identity of the person who is trying to kill his intended mate.  More clues need to be deciphered surrounding a number of serious crimes that occurred in the pack, including assault on the Alpha, and the murder of two children.

The personalities of each of the characters is unique and somewhat likeable, except for the personality of the person trying to kill Alicia.  This character's personality seems too intense and over exaggerated in response to the events that lead up to the revenge-like actions described in the book.

Readers of the paranormal, romance, and werewolf genres will enjoy  this exciting read.  The paranormal and werewolf aspects are somewhat played down, but the romance part is rather steamy with explicit, and highly erotic episodes.

I give this book three stars because in my rating system 3 = Recliner. Sat back in my cozy chair and enjoyed the read. The smut factor (3.5 stars) was not bad. Character likability was good, I did not hate them. Storytelling was believable, it could really happen. I liked it.  It was a good read. Wouldn't mind continuing on with following installments, if it's part of a series.

I swallowed the lump in my throat and stared at his hands again.  I bet he would use those strong hands to hold me down, to touch me, to make me feel owned.

5 dirty mechanic stars!  This book is the ultimate fantasy come true!

Josephine finds herself in her old car stuck on the side of the road, in a small town she just moved to.  So she calls the local mechanic to come tow her back into town.  Never meeting the man, she has no clue what shes about to see.  As soon as Gabe shows up, hes struck by how gorgeous Josephine is and knows instantly he wants her.  And lets just say that when Josephine lays eyes on Gabe the feeling is mutual.  Gabe is your typical mechanic, scruffy, tatted but with a heart of gold.  As much as these two try to fight temptation, they know they cant hold off.

Just like typical Jenika books, this won is sexy and quite honestly I think this may be my favorite in the series!  I think most women have the dirty mechanic fantasy and she plays this story out perfectly!  Its hot, sexy and well dirty!  I love this series!

"I knew it the first time I laid eyes on him. Some men have that power . They instantly ignite something feral in you, whether you want it or not, and the sexual electricity is always there, in every room and every moment, from the first time you see them. An inescapable web, swirling around you until you surrender. And at that point, they devour you. ~ ~ Linda Cray

With a beginning like that, how could I not be prepared for temptation in one of the finest packages to grace my pages?  It's been 2 months since Linda has left Jack in the States, 2 months that she's been on tour with Blackpoll, 2 months working for the mercurial Alan Manzone.

"Alan Manzone unnerves me more than any guy Ive ever met. And crap, hes not even really a man yet."

This book had my feelings all over the place... I was anxious to see what was in store for Linda and Jack.  Intoxicated by Alan.  Apprehensive about how Linda would handle the new situations she faces...  But mostly?  Enamored by the story unravelling before me.  Love is not always easy.  It's not always kind.  And this installment shows the trials and sacrifices true loves faces.

Jack... My heart melts for him.  He's such a wonderful and caring man.  But in this book, my heart breaks for him.  He's dealing with a very complicated situation and it's affecting everything around him.

Linda... Though I don't necessarily understand the decisions she makes, I loved getting a look at an independent Linda.  She's trying to pave her own way.  To be someone worthy of love yet fighting it at the same time.

Alan is a temptation.  He's enigmatic and has a way of reading people that can be uncomfortable if you are the one he focuses on.  I loved his interaction with Linda.  Though my heart hurts a little bit, I'm glad he came into her life and vice versa.

As a fan of the Hall Shell series, I eagerly devoured any and all Alan page time.  He's a wounded man that I have a soft spot for.  So for those of you that are reading about him in the Half Shell series, you won't be disappointed by this insight.

For those of you who haven't read the Half Shell series, don't fret.  It's not necessary but it sure adds a whole new layer of insight and feels for all of these characters involved.  You should pick up The Girl on the Half Shell and give it a try.

One Long Kiss t is rich with plot development and character growth.  Each installment only gets better and better in the Affairs Without End series and believe me when I say I will drop everything for the next release.

Especially when Jack is involved. ;)

I wish I could give this one more than 5 stars. Candy Man captured my interest in previous books and I was waiting for his story. He's one bad a** alpha man who loves his sister deeply and has never been romantically in love. He's sexy, compassionate, sweet, hard and an all around bad ass that even the hardest Lean Dog members respect. Michelle has always tried to be the son her father never had and is also one bad ass, independent woman. Candy fights his attraction to Michelle and feels guilty because of the 19 year age difference but in the end he can't let her go. He's strong enough to not try to change her and he's strong enough to know that it's alright for a big, bad ass alpha to show his feelings. This is undoubtedly one of the best romances I have read this year.

Autumn Jones Lake did it again with White Knuckles, I honestly didn't think I could love Wrath anymore that I already did  his love for Trinity is swoon worthy! These Lost Kings characters are a fiercely loyal bunch who love hard: the men are strong, hot alpha males with panty melting dirty mouths and their women hold their own with their strength, determination and take no s**t attitudes. This series is definitely a must read if you love a great MC story that has you panting over the sexy scenes one minute, crying the next, then wanting to throat punch someone the next second  my emotions are always all over the place when Im reading a Lost Kings book. I love that Wrath and Trinity finally got their happily ever after, if any couple in this series deserved a HEA its them!

Oh my E.L. Todd definitely knows how to keep a reader`s attention in the Forever and Ever series. I have to say through everything going on the one I am interested is Trinity and Arsen. I love that Arsen is like a modern day bad boy with a little bit of James Dean in him making me want to well just kiss and hug him. I feel for this guy for what he went through as a youngster and applaud Trinity for trying her hardest in showing him that everybody deserves love. Beatrice and Conrad I am still skeptical about these two for no matter how hard we try know her she pulls away. Makes me want to tear my hair out wanting to know more about her. I was laughing with Theo and Alex for one minute they hate each other the next they`re all over. It was hillarious to see them juggle their feelings like a seesaw between these two. E.L. Todd is not stopping at all with this series and interested to see more about Beatrice really curious about her story. Can`t wait for Book 9 in this series.
