Pack Rule #2: Always protect your mate

I protected my country. Protected my platoon.
Now all I wanted to protect was her.
Too bad that wasn’t an option.
I couldn’t fall for the beautiful slip of a female.
The baby sister of my brother’s new mate.
She was way too young. Way too human.
Still in college. And too bright a force of nature.
She had her whole life ahead of her.
And I had the Green Berets begging me to reenlist.
But my wolf… he wanted her.
But if I let her go without claiming her,
I might not survive the moon madness.

Blog Tour – A Wolf’s Treasure – L. E. Wilson



A Wolf's Treasure
The Kinkaid Werewolves Book 5
by L.E. Wilson
Genre: Adult Paranormal Romance





She's the treasure he never thought he'd find…

Shifter Duncan Kincaid enjoys dancing. Country dancing to be precise. After all, the lasses love nothing more than a man who can swing them around a dance floor. And that's the other thing Duncan loves- the lasses. A wink and a smile is all it takes to have a partner for the night, until a Faerie with dark curls and brazen curves throws him off his game and shakes him to his core.

He's a danger to her life, and a risk she's willing to take.

With his I-know-what-you-look-like-naked green eyes, sexy brogue, and cocky grin, Duncan is the type of wolf Ryanne wouldn't normally waste her time with for more than a night. But underneath the playful exterior, she senses a haunting sadness, one that calls to her own dark soul and distracts her from her purpose.

The murder will just have to wait.






Official public review:
What better distraction
This is my first time reading one of the author’s books, but I can see her becoming a favorite.  I love the characters, who wouldn’t love a Scottish werewolf?  These two really seemed to connect and once they actually make contact the steam is everything I would ask for.  I love that Duncan is the embodiment of the perfect man, dance moves and all, and Rayanne is feisty and patient and so very interested in him.  The story its self was captivating, and there was more than enough action and intrigue that I couldn’t put it down once I started.  I can’t wait to see what the author comes up with next, but in the mean time I have already grabbed the first few books in this series to find out what I missed out on.

About the Author
L.E. Wilson writes Paranormal Romance starring intense alpha males and the women who are fearless enough to tame them—for the most part anyway. ;) In her novels you'll find smoking hot scenes, a touch of suspense, a bit of gore, and multifaceted characters, all working together to combine her lifelong obsession with the paranormal and her love of romance.

Her writing career came about the usual way: on a dare from her loving husband. Little did they know just one casual suggestion would open a box of worms (or words as the case may be) that would forever change their lives.

Lattes and music are a necessary part of her writing process, and sometimes you'll find her typing away at her favorite Starbucks. She walks two miles to get there, to make up for all of those coffees.

Book Birthday – Kissed by the Alien Mercenary – Mina Carter




Kissed by the Alien Mercenary (Warriors of the Lathar book 12)
Published to Amazon on April 28, 2020
Author Mina Carter
Amazon




Woken by a kiss, she didn’t expect her prince to be a handsome alien warrior.

After being ill for months Lizzie Kalson wakes to a world she doesn’t recognize. Literally. That’s because it’s the home planet for an alien empire. Now she has to contend with the fact her sister is an alien princess and the hot as hell alien warrior whose deep, gravelly voice haunts her dreams. She should keep a level head but something about him makes her want to forget all about the differences between their species and wish for her own fairytale romance...

Born with nothing, his honor is all he has. And he’d leave it all behind because of love...

Saal has always had to fight for everything he has, including his place at the Healer’s Hall. Seen as a punishment by most, he doesn’t care. Not when it allows him to be close to the beautiful Lady Lizzie.

He’s determined to make her his, but the cost is higher than he expected when cultural differences raise their ugly heads. Perhaps humans and lathar don’t get a happily ever after…But when Lizzie’s life is on the line, can Saal look past his heartbreak and save the only female he’s ever loved?

PLEASE NOTE: This title was previously included in the LOVED IN SPACE anthology, and has been minorly expanded and edited for re-release.




Official published review:
Waking the sleeping beauty
I have loved all of the Warriors of the Lathar, but this one may just be my favorite. There is just a sweetness to the relationship between these two characters and the many obstacles they have to overcome seem almost insurmountable. Especially when your own family is not 100% on your side. The author did such a fantastic job with this book and the ending certainly brought tears to my eyes. I can’t wait to read the next book in this series.

Mina was born and raised in the East Farthing of Middle Earth (otherwise known as the Midlands, England) and spend her childhood learning all the sorts of things generally required of a professional adventurer. Able to ride, box, shoot, make and read maps, make chainmail and use a broadsword (with varying degrees of efficiency) she was disgusted to find that adventuring is not considered a suitable occupation these days.

So, instead of slaying dragons and hunting vampires and the like, Mina spends her days writing about hot shifters, government conspiracies and vampire lords with more than their fair share of RAWR. Turns out wanna-be adventurers have quite the turn of imagination after all...

(But she keeps that sword sharp, just in case the writing career is just a dream and she really *is* an adventurer.)

The boring part: A full time author, photographer and cover artist, Mina can usually be found hunched over a keyboard or graphics tablet, frantically trying to get the images and words in her head out and onto the screen before they drive her mad. She's addicted to coffee and would like to be addicted to chocolate, but unfortunately chocolate dislikes her.

Book Birthday – Chance of a Lifetime – Susan Hayes




Chance of a Lifetime (The Drift book 9)
Published to Amazon on April 28, 2020
Author Susan Hayes
Amazon




No risk. No reward.

Erik O’Neill has finally stopped looking for trouble. Now, trouble’s come looking for him. After years of cage fighting, Erik is ready to step away from the Nova Club’s fight ring and into a new role – security for the club he calls home. All his plans change when a lovely loner starts visiting the club, and he finds himself caught between the need to safeguard his home and his friends, and his desire to protect the woman laying claim to his heart.

Chance is a cyborg with a secret. If the wrong people find her, she’ll lose her shot at having the life she dreams of – or any life at all. She’s come to the Drift looking for allies, but when she meets Erik, she discovers he can offer her more than safety. He’s her chance at happiness, too.

When time runs out, she’ll have to make a choice that will change her life forever - keep running, or turn to the one man her heart tells her she can trust.


Publishers Note: This story was previously released as part of the Loved In Space anthology. This edition has been revised and expanded.




Official published review:
Taking a Chance
The author did an amazing job with this addition to the Drift. I love how Chance is so innocent and yet so very very brave. I’m not sure I would be as brave should I have been in her situation. And Erik. Sigh. The perfect man, gorgeous and strong and all in once he claimed his lady. This is a fantastic read, fast paced with just the right mix of emotion and danger. I really enjoyed the drama and excitement. I can’t wait to see who finds their HEA next.

Book Birthday – Finding His Strength – Measha Stone




Finding His Strength (The Dirty Heroes Collection 2)
Published to Amazon on April 20, 2020
Author Measha Stone


Even his god-like strength couldn't protect him from her...
Captured and forced to marry Henrik, Megara vows never to forget his monstrous behavior... but her hatred for her husband doesn't weaken her attraction to him.

Henrik chases his legacy with the ferocity and strength worthy of a God. He will not be deterred, and he will not fail. Nothing will stand in his way. Not even a wife.

But Henrik's strength can not keep Megara's beautiful soul from seeping into his heart. A choice is coming, between everything he ever wanted and the one thing he didn't know he needed.


Official published review:
The perfect recipe
This book is another great example of this author’s writing.  The characters are so well written, and you almost feel like you are in the room with them as you learn the subtle nuances of their personalities.  Henrik is this strong alpha male and Magara has her own strength covered in softness, they might come together in a dark and difficult way, but by the end of the story I was really in love with them both.  The author did not disappoint with the touch of darkness to the journey, but she also gave us that unexpected lasting relationship and HEA that we know and love.  I really enjoyed this book and I can’t wait to read the next book by the author.

She likes to write submissive women who are strong willed, and fully capable of taking life by the horns. Not much is sweeter than a strong woman bending to the will of her mate, except for maybe the Dominant who bends her!

Measha lives in the suburbs of Chicago with her husband and three children. Although she works hard on her writing, and reads every chance she gets, spending time with her family is a high priority. Even if that entails binge watching old sitcoms on Netflix with the kids curled up around her and her husband dishing out the popcorn.

Book Birthday – Unbondable – Evangeline Anderson




Unbondable:  Book 1 of the Kindred Birthright Series (Brides of the Kindred)
Published to Amazon on April 25, 2020
Author Evangeline Anderson
Amazon




A female Blood Kindred who hates her fangs...
A fierce warrior who loves her...
Can Kara and Raak stay together?
Or will their love be shattered because he is...Unbondable?

Kara is a rare Blood Kindred female...unfortunately for her, she has the fangs to prove it. To Kara's dismay, it's hard to find a warrior who wants to get bitten when things get hot and heavy. She's tried dating humans too, but that doesn't work out either. So when she meets Raakshas, a Kindred warrior with dark, silver-ringed eyes who actually likes her fangs, it seems like her troubles are over.

But there's a problem...Raak is half Y’lyn--a kind of demon without a soul. And without a soul, there's no hope of forming the permanent soul-bond that all Kindred have with their mates. Without the possibility of forming a bond, how can Kara give her heart to the big Warrior? And what will happen when she goes on an adventure to try a shrink her fangs and winds up naked in the Unseen Palace?

You'll have to read Unbondable, the first book in the new Kindred Birthright series to find out.

*Author's Note: This is book 1 of the new Kindred Birthright series which follows the children of the first generation of Kindred. Unbondable is Kara's story--the daughter of Sylvan and Sophia. I know this book has been a long time in coming but I hope you enjoy it now that it's here.*




Official published review:
Look to the future
I have been waiting for the author to take us on this journey and she did not disappoint.  I love that we finally get to see what happens with the children of the original mates.  Raak might not be considered a prize in his world, but he is the perfect guy for Kara.  He doesn’t expect her to change and no matter what will keep her safe.  The author might have made this story a bit shorter, but she didn’t forget to add the heat, the danger and the excitement that is such a hallmark in her writing.  I really enjoyed this book and can’t wait to see what happens with the rest of the children, now adults, I just now that it will be amazing.

Book Birthday – Hexing with a Chance of Tornadoes – Mandy M. Roth




Hexing with a Chance of Tornadoes:  A Paranormal Women’s Fiction Romance Novel (Grimm Cove book 2)
Published to Amazon on April 25, 2020
Author Mandy M. Roth
Amazon




A storm is brewing and so is a budding romance.

I've been told I'm a force to be reckoned with. That I blow onto the scene like a tornado. I've stopped caring if that's a compliment or a dig. Now I just wear it like a badge of honor. So when life threw me a curveball and I ended up going from a cushy job in New York City to the tiny Southern town of Grimm Cove, I thought I was ready for anything.

Ha! Not quite.

You see, Grimm Cove is teeming with supernaturals. And since I've known they exist for a hot minute, I'm still in a state of total shock. When I learn that I come from a long line of witches and demon slayers, the stakes (pun intended) get even higher and sharper.

These monsters aren't make-believe. They're out for blood.

I'm trying to decide if having the alpha of the local wolf-shifter pack nipping at my heels is an asset in this fight, or if he's one more person I need to watch my back around. I just wish he wasn't so sexy and didn't smell so good. He'd be a lot easier to resist. I have enough going on in my life as it is. I really do not have time for all this fated mate crap everyone keeps telling me about. My head and heart are at war and now isn't the time for distractions, especially since it’s painfully clear that something evil wants me dead.




Official published review:
Fly with the wind
What an amazing second story in this series! The author had me completely enthralled from the first page. She took the characters I loved from the first book and embellished and enhanced everything about them. I love that Dana didn’t lose any of her snark when she was connecting with her mate while wearing the bits of her enemy. This book is full of so many surprises and was that a little bit of a love connection there at the end? I really hope the author keeps this series going. I need to know what Stratton is and if he finds his mate, and Marcy needs to find someone who will love her quirkiness, and what about Jeffery’s sister. The author could keep this series going on forever and I would never get bored. I can’t wait to read the next book to see how she tops this one.
