347936
In this series the omega male werewolves can mate with a alpha and produce an off-spring.  Devon is the only child of a pair of alpha werewolf.  He has been raised by nannies and has no since of self-esteem.  He tries to kill himself only to be saved by a sea who is has been told by his father he has to learn how to get along with land lubbers or loose his portion of the ocean.  Well written with well-developed characterization.  Adult readers due sexual content.  Note: Sunlight is what the omega is called and needs to be capitalised.

This is about a beginning menage situation (m/f/m)  between three werewolves that are just trying to lead normal lives.  But of course things are rarely simple.  Enjoy I did.

Marcus isn't necessarily the strongest werewolf in his pack, but through cunning and luck, he became alpha. His pack is animalistic, cruel and lives by the law of the strongest survives. Within that mindset, the tender male attention that he craves is unacceptable, so he spends moments with other males in secret to maintain his status. Jack is a yuppie human, on his way up in the world. From humble beginnings, he fought the social stigmas and became a man of means and reputation. But all that changes when he hits a wolf with his car. A mauling brings changes in Jack and not just his sight and food preferences. He sees a man, feels that man and wants him. Marcus and Jack finally meet, man-to-man and the lust explodes, but will Marcus jeopardize his place in the pack for Jack and can Jack ever accept what it means to be a werewolf?

Pack of Lies, for the most part, is a harder story. Told from alternating first point of views from Jack and Marcus, the reader gets very different views on what is happening and then has to put them together, which is no hardship as the plot flows very well. The sex is hot, frequent and varied, which is nice. The big downfall I felt in the story was in Marcus' viewpoint. There were times when it felt very feminine, even distractingly so, which I felt didn't fit his character. But all in all, a good m/m story featuring the not so cuddly side of werewolf paranormal romance. Definitely worth picking up when a reader wants something different.

I am happily and voluntarily reviewing an ARC copy of Inception.

Hope and Aaron must work through misconceptions and tangles with psychic immortals called Elysians before they can embrace they are meant for each other as mates. Hope is a dragon shifter and thinks she must mate with another dragon shifter. She thinks she would cause any other to die through mating, namely Aaron whom she secretly loves.  Aaron is conflicted because his twin Zayn died and feels he does not deserve happiness. He is drinking himself into oblivion. What if both are wrong and they really belong together?  What if their love is real and possible? These internal conflicts play out during the threat of the psychic immortals in an action-packed tale filled with great description.  A great read!

I absolutely ADORE Levi and Amy! He's so funny and full of life. He's the "youngest" of the Dire Wolves, and they don't really think he should have too much responsibility, but when a new case of an Omega comes up, Levi offers to take lead. He wants to prove that he can handle situations just like his brothers. What he doesn't count on is the Omega he's called in to protect is his fated mate.

From the time he meets Amy, sparks fly. She's headstrong and wonderful and meets Levi on all things. They can't deny their attraction, and they don't want to. It's not everyday that you meet your mate, and they make the most of it.

Then the threat for Amy closes in and Levi will do whatever it takes to protect his mate. One thing is for certain, you don't mess with a Dire Wolf.

This is a great story. It's the intro story for the Alpha & Omega series which is great (I've read the series previously but never reviewed it). I love Patricia Briggs' work and this series is another example of why. There is some crossover between this and her Mercy Thompson series.

Anna is a werewolf and has been for 3 years. Unfortunately she was turned against her will and is part of a horrible pack that abuses her regularly. She has been struggling to get by but when she sees a news story about a young man that she know was in her Alpha's house she decides she needs to call in a higher authority, the Marrack (the leader of all the werewolves in North America). She's terrified because dominant wolves have always meant pain for her but she's determined to try to help the boy. When she speaks to the Marrack, she finds out he's already sent someone to Chicago and he asks her to meet his emissary.

Charles is his Father's (the Marrack) enforcer. He's an old and very Dominant. He's been sent to Chicago to investigate a few issues. He isn't expecting a last minute change in plans when he gets a message from his father to meet a female werewolf at the airport and keep her safe. He's also not expecting her to be an Omega (a rare type of werewolf that helps calm others) and that his wolf will immediately decide to claim her as his mate.

The story isn't long and only takes place over a little over a day. Charles and Anna discuss things and Charles finds out that some weird stuff has been going on in the pack (including the many instances of abuse and rape of Anna over the 3 years she's been in the pack). Things between Charles and Anna don't get much further than beginning interest (no insta-love) but it was done well and you can see the starting of a connection between them and Anna feels safe with Charles and that's something she hasn't had since she was turned. There are a couple encounters with some of the bad werewolves and a final confrontation in which the mystery is solved and the bad guys are taken out. The story ends with a possibility of a HEA (which will come about in the continuing series) as Charles asks Anna to move to Montana with him so they can explore a possible relationship together (their human sides that is, since their wolves are already there).

This is a great story. I love Charles and Anna. She's been through so much but yet is still has spirit and is willing to do what needs to be done to help others. Charles is so gruff and has to be hard in what he does for his Father but he finds in Anna, someone he wants to shelter and protect and that brings about soft feelings in him for the first time in his life (and he's had a long life so far). This story is a lead in to the series so I'd recommend planning to read the first book of the series Cry Wolf right after this as it starts immediately after this book leaves off. I'd recommend this story. 2 thumbs up! :D

* note - I listened to the audio version of this. The narrator did a very good job.

<i>I received a copy of the book from the author in exchange for an honest review</i>

Tuomo is an omega who hasn't yet found a mate.  His clan and the areas around have been having a very difficult time (food is running low, the weather is not ideal, etc) and the clan feels that it should follow the legends from long ago of sacrificing a member.  Because Tuomo is an unmated omega, he is "asked" to be the one sacrificed.  He doesn't have a choice and he doesn't really want to do it, but he feels that he should do it because he isn't mated and he is loyal to his clan.  Of course, all of this happened before his mate, Haskel came to a gathering.  Tuomo wants to live and Haskel is willing to fight for him.

While I generally really enjoy this author, this one wasn't one of my favorites.  This was much darker than normal, and it broke my heart to see how they treated Tuomo.  I really liked Haskel and his friends.  Tuomo and Haskel get their HEA, but it isn't without much drama, abuse, and meanness.  I didn't care for that part, but at least they ended up happy.

Anna is a descendant of Ariel, the first mermaid to rescue her love from the ocean and be cursed to shape shifting between worlds. Like all daughters of Ariel, Anna is to fall in love rescuing a man not of the ocean and dying on before her twenty-first birthday. Not accepted by either world, Anna has grown up alone without the love and affection of family or friends. With just 11 short months to live, Anna is restlessly roaming the ocean when an angel falls deep into the abyss. Determined to rescue him, she risks a lot and in return to have some value to her life.

Jonah has spent centuries fighting Dark Ones for the Goddess and basically is burned out. Each new angel he trains is like a son to him and after watching some of them pass on, he is broken in heart and soul. Darkness has invade his heart and he is ready to give in to its call. When in battle one of his wings is chopped off, he falls to the ocean, letting it take him to the abyss. When a mermaid saves him, taking him deeper into the abyss to heal, he starts to question his inner demons as well as the world he is fighting to protect.

The two embark on a journey to the desert to find a way to fight the darkness invading Jonah's soul. Jonah sees the gentle, kindness that is all Anna. Her inner beauty and innocence makes Jonah want to be a better angel, but he struggles in his battle. Anna wants some meaning in her life before she dies and falls deeply in love with Jonah, believing he will be saved. She will risk everything, even her life to save him.

There was such beauty in the book that I felt like I was swaying with the water as the two were going deeper in the abyss. Unfortunately the book failed to hold my me as it went deeper. I lacked the compassion for Jonah's plight. Most times I wanted to slap him upside the back of the head and tell him to pick himself up and be a man. There were so many angels, man and mermaid pulling for him that he just seemed a little depressed. I guess after centuries of battling Dark Ones, you are allowed a bad day? Unfortunately he was so powerful, he could destroy earth and all of humanity.

One big problem I head was how they approached sex in the story. They call it Joining and it creates magic. Jonah and Anna having healing Joining in the abyss, even as Jonah is giving up. In a way I felt he was using her. No, he was using her and she let him. At one point he tries to refuse the magic and it hurts Anna badly.

I wanted Anna to be all that was love, but really I wanted her to tell him no as well. Heck, her life wasn't a sunny ball of sunshine either, but you didn't see her giving in to the darkness of her soul. Yes, she was accepting that her time on the earth was short, but she wasn't giving into living it with the hope and joy she could get from it. I really got tired of her telling he could have whatever he wanted. Hello! They are walking in a desert, she is a mermaid...can anyone say she needs water?

At times the book seem to drag on when I just wanted to get to the end. It could have been a much shorter book with a lot more interactions. It also seemed that if a super paranormal action was needed, it could be explained away with a convenient explanation.

I really wanted to love the story so much as I have waited a while for the price to come down on the ebook. Unfortunately it left me not wanting to continue the series. The love scenes weren't sexy, but instead seem out of place. The imagery was beautiful, but after a while I was ready to move on.

I recommend this to anyone who loves seeing an angel at a crossroads in his life on good and evil. Also a mermaid who's destiny is already written, but who wants to change it. While not a bad book, it wasn't something I can say I enjoyed enough continue the series for.

Bowen Knight has come back from the dead but theres a ticking time bomb in his head. Even with the most brilliant scientists in the world working on the problem, he only has a small chance of living beyond a few weeks. With so little time left who should be helping the Human Alliance. Instead he is at the bottom of the ocean consumed with thought of the enigmatic Kaia Luna. Kaia has had enough pain in her life, mostly at the hands of humans. So she is baffled by her attraction to the human male who despite his potent vitality, is on the brink of death. But, when Kaia is taken, Bo will do anything to get her backeven if it means losing his mind.

So far in the Psy-Changeling and Psy-Changeling Trinity series weve had all land mammals. In Ocean Light we finally get an in depth glimpse at the water changelings in the BlackSea Clan. Unlike most other packs that consist of mainly one type of animal  leopard, wolf, bear  the BlackSea Clan includes any water based creature, from sharks to minnows, whales and turtles. Anything that is at home in the water belongs to BlackSea. Because of this they are a vast and powerful organisation, who have only just chosen to create alliances with outside groups. One of those groups being the Human Alliance.

Bowen is the Security Chief for the Human Alliance and has done a few questionable things in previous books. But, in Ocean Light we finally get to know his full background and get a deep dive in to his personality. He surprised me. As much as I look forward to every Singh book, Bo has never been a favourite of mine. I should have known that Singh could get me to fall in love with him! Kaia is a water changeling, but I won't tell you what she changes into as  it is a cute game between Kaia and Bo for him to guess, you find out towards the end of the book. Like all Singh heroines, she was likeable and had her own strengths and an interesting past. The romance between them grew quickly, but still managed to somehow convey a depth of feeling.

It wasn't just the romance that was going on though. Water changelings have been disappearing and found dead and we finally get a little bit more information on whats been happening. I cant wait to read the next book so I can keep getting more bits of the puzzle. This book also introduced us to more new characters from both the Human Alliance and from BlackSea. It will be interesting to know more about them and then hopefully see them have their own book.

Although this didn't quite have the charm of Silver Silence, (the bears completely won me over!) this was an enjoyable read and a worthy instalment in the Psy-Changeling series.

Call of sea was very interesting, different and exciting. Cerena was cursed to the sea with only the full moon respite until the day would come that the one man would break her curse.
Ian can't forget the woman that saved his life all those years ago but he knows she is long gone by now.
He didn't know how wrong he was until he was called to the sea and got swept up in the sea and almost drowned again only to have be rescued again by the woman of his dreams.
They found each other again and it may just break her curse for good.

Call of sea was awesome book to read. I enjoyed reading it. And I am looking forward to reading to more in this series.

My kind of book. You have Prince Aeson who is the twin brother of King Kabril from Accipitridae Realm, Buteos Regalis feeling some kind of way when watching the King with his toddlers is a ladies man in his world and on Earth so the thought of consulting the oracle about a mate is not a thing he even wants to hear about. When he goes to his favorite BDSM club on Earth of course he meets his mate Shelby but she unfortunately(for the other man) is with a who is a little bit too eager for Shelby to do things she doesnt want to and that becomes a major problem. Of course I expected the shifter, human mate thing because I read the other books in this series but there is a twist that I didn't expect which made the book very enjoyable.

Lucas, Alpha of the Coywolves, has secured his pack a seat on the senate, they will finally be recognized and validated in the Shifter community regardless of their bloodline. Now all he has to do is convince the King's former Guard, Jakob, that they are destined to be together. That by submitting to his attraction, the bond with Lucas, Jakob won't be less of a wolf. All Jakob has ever known is his place at King Eric's side, without that, who is he? It's a struggle for the Coywolf Alpha and the Grey Wolf Guard to find a balance they can both live with. Just when Jakob is ready to let Lucas into his heart, a third appears, a human. A Wolf and a human haven't mated in thousands of years, a human that is bound to two Wolves? That is unheard of. The three of them are ready to navigate the rough waters of acceptance when a conniving Witch throws them all for a tailspin.

I am a huge fan of Menage stories, especially when the working relationship is conveyed well. My only issue with this particular story was the insta-love aspect. Now, I can ignore insta-love when it comes to Shifters and such, since fated mates is usually at play. But their human is head over heels crazy in love in a matter of days? That was a stretch. That being said, this is still a very intriguing series and I enjoy reading each book. I love the way the Author portrays the different characteristics and individuality of each man in the throuple. Lucas is used to being in charge and not having that authority questioned, so Jakob refusing him drives him crazy. Jakob isn't used to answering to anyone but the King, so he does not even know what to do when he doesn't have that position anymore. Ryan realizes he's human and their relationship defies logic, but the pull and the unquestioned trust he has of both men from the start settles his fear.

Definitely a series worth investing your time in if you like MMM/Menage stories, PNR, Shifters and well thought out story lines.

Title : Claiming His Desire
 Feral Breed Series. Book Six
Author : Ellis Leigh
Reviewed by : Stephanie Jordan .

Love it... Love it.... This whole Series is just phenomenal.... Bringing all the characters of the five books before and intertwining them all together was just fabulous.

Now that a lot of his brothers were finding there mates he let it be known that he thought that all mated shifters shouldnt ride with the Feral Breed. Because they're minds will be on there mates and that was dangerous for themselves and his brothers.
Aoife is a necromancer, she see dead people and they tell her things to tell the family , while Aoife helps them to cross over.
Aoife has known for over a year now that Jameson ran from her when he saw her, where in reality he thought she was dead than ran... Will he come around soon?? Aoife needs her mate. Do they work together or go there separate ways? I was gifted this ARC for an honest and truthful review

Summary:

Received for an honest review.

Dean and Mikael have finally settled into a comfortable relationship, but they know that they will soon have to deal with the upcoming problems with Mikael's family. You see Mikael is a member of an allusive werewolf pack that has little to do with the nearby human community. Mikael is one of the few members who lives and works outside of pack land. Now Dean knows what Mikael is, but little beyond the bare facts which becomes abundantly clear when he is finally called to return home. Dean is about to find out that is some ways pack dealings are similar to human interactions by the way they cling to the old ways even though their very traditions make little sense. Dean and Mikael's feelings for one another may be put to the test as they are forced to fight for what they believe in.

It was fascinating to see the differences and similarities between humans and werewolf cultures. Mikael's father may be large and in charge, but his mother seemed to be the power behind him. Dean has his work cut out for him, but he is probably stubborn enough to show any werewolf not to mess with him. While many secrets were revealed more were hinted at and I for one can't wait to see what happens next.
