Featured Series - Tales of the Were: Jaguar Island - Bianca D'Arc




Have I got a treat for you guys today!  If you have not already been sucked into the world of Tales of the Were, this series within a series will surely latch onto you and not let go.  Ms D’Arc has created this fantastic little world, well little might be something of an understatement.  There are close to 50 books with all of the little series within a series spinoffs, and I have loved every single one.  I am currently doing a re-read of all of them, so be prepared to see Ms D’Arc’s name fairly often in the coming months.

I think the Jaguar Island books are some of my favorites in the entire series.  One because I just love the thought of a secret society of Big Cat shifters, and two because this group of people have been given a rough lot in life and they are coming together to rally as a people.  I am really hoping that Ms D’Arc will continue to add to this spinoff series.  I especially want to see the twins find their mate.  What twins you ask, well you are just going to have to read the series to find out.  Check out each book below and, as always, just click on the pictures or any of the links to be taken to Amazon to grab your copy today.

Happy Reading

It all started at dinner…

Mark is the larger-than-life billionaire Alpha of the secretive Jaguar Clan. Business tycoon and man about town, he’s the guest of honor at a huge society dinner in lower Manhattan. Shelly is at the dinner to network and possibly find some clients for her architectural design business. She comes from old money, but her family has fallen on hard times in recent decades and she likes to work for her living.

A violent beginning to a magical destiny…

When a man she’d been chatting with starts shooting at Mark, Shelly is dragged to a back room for questioning. When Shelly and Mark meet face to face, something changes forever. Her fate tangles with his as he introduces her to a world she never knew existed. A world where men turn into huge predatory cats and magic is real.

Can the Alpha’s dream come true?

Commissioning Shelly to design a community on the private island Mark just purchased is a way to keep her close. It’ll be up to the Alpha jaguar to convince her that they are meant to be, and to keep her safe from his enemies. Or will it be her keeping him safe? Stranger things have happened…

Welcome to our world
This author has just an exciting imagination. She really brought it to us with this book. It continues her series of the Tales of the Were while branching out into a new series. I really enjoyed the way the story starts out with an explosion of activity and then carries through until the end of the book. The author manages to include all of the emotional entanglements that are hallmarks in her writing and sets us up perfectly for the HEA, and the next book which I can’t wait to read. Overall I loved this book and the characters that she has created. I think you will not be disappointed when you add it to your to read pile.

From shining star to shining stars
This book is another wonderful addition to the Tales of the Were series. I really enjoyed that Attila the bodyguard had to learn to let go of some of his uptight ways to become what his mate needed. It’s a good thing fate saw him in her path when the danger really ramped up or the outcome would not have been as enjoyable. You are going to love this intensely emotional book and the HEA that comes with it. I can’t wait to read what the author brings us next.

He’s a jaguar. She’s a wolf. Can they make a go of it, or will they fight like cats and dogs?

Hank has never forgotten the wild woman with whom he spent one memorable night. He's dreamed of her for years, but has never been back to the small airport in Texas owned and run by her werewolf Pack. Tracy was left with a delicious memory of her night in Hank’s arms, and a beautiful baby girl who is the light of her life. She chose not to tell Hank about his daughter, but when he finally returns and he discovers the daughter he’s never known, he’ll do all he can to set things right.

Tracy wants to be wanted for herself and won’t settle for less. Hank realizes he’s been a stupid fool and the woman he’s never been able to forget is actually his mate. He’s just been too stubborn to admit it. He will need to prove his devotion before his werewolf mate will relent and give in to the attraction that has never faded. He just needs to find the right words and actions to make her understand and win her heart all over again.

* This book is the third in the Jaguar Island series, which is also part of the larger Tales of the Were series.


Official published review:
The absent return
The author did a brilliant job of keeping with the Howls romance tradition with this book  The secret baby really brings us closer to the characters in this story and how even the paranormal face real-life difficulties. I was a little disappointed in the mother at first, but I could understand her fears and reasoning. Regardless, I was so happy when the author led them to their HEA. I hope the author brings us more of this spinoff series, I really want to see what happens with Pax and Ari and the mate they are sure to share.
