Featured Series - Alpha Marked - Celia Kyle



If you haven’t read anything by this author before, you are going to want to grab the books in this series.  I actually purchased them when they were originally published in a box set, but the author has re-released them with these beautiful new covers and new names.  Each book has a super sassy leading lady as the center piece with not one, but two alpha males that think she should be theirs.  You heard that right, TWO alpha males.  Are your glasses fogging up yet?  No, well as soon as you grab the first book they will be.

The beauty of this series is that you will also be grabbing your sides and rolling on the floor trying to keep reading through your tears of laughter.  There are two sets of siblings, one knowing about the paranormal, but in denial and one with no clue.  Each set brings their own special brand of wackiness to The Gathering and together they are almost more then these alpha males can handle. 

You are going to want to start reading this series today!  Just click on any of the pictures or links below to head on over to Amazon and grab your copy today.  Be sure to let me know what you think.

Happy Reading

Mate Claimed:  Werewolf Shapeshifter Paranormal Romance (Alpha Marked book 1)
Published to Amazon on October 25, 2019
Author Celia Kyle




Thirty and single? Well, getcha butt to the Gathering!

As if hitting thirty wasn’t enough, unmated Scarlet Wickham is summoned to this year’s Gathering. As a woman Marked to be the mate of an Alpha pair, she’s not going to find happiness anywhere other than in the arms of two Alpha werewolves. So, off she goes with her sisters in tow. ‘Cause yeah, she’s one of the plump Wickham triplets, and they’re all being carted off to werewolf speed dating.

Keller and Madden, Ruling Alpha pair, can’t believe their luck. They’ve found their mate, and she’s more than they could have ever hoped for. She’s feisty with spirit to spare, and lush curves that they want to trace with their tongues. They can’t wait to solidify their bond and get to know the beautiful woman who is to rule at their side. But first, there’s the minor inconvenience of a challenge to the death…



Official published review:
Forever in denial
Such a fantastic start to a new series. The author used this book to not only tell us the story of how Scarlet met her mates, but also set up at least two new books with little hints throughout. I really enjoyed how Scarlet quickly changed her view on mating after she met her two guys. The author gave all three of them exactly what they needed, but she didn’t make it easy or painless. By the HEA we knew these were fated to be together and intrigued by what might happen with the sisters. I can’t wait to read the next book.

Mate Seduced:  Werewolf Shapeshifter Paranormal Romance (Alpha Marked book 2)
Published to Amazon on October 25, 2019
Author Celia Kyle


Thirty and single? Well, getcha butt to the Gathering!

Ugh. Gabriella Wickham thought turning thirty was bad enough, but now she’s been invited (ordered) to attend this year’s Gathering (werewolf speed dating). Having a Mark on her arm means that she’s one of the few human women destined to mate with not one, but two Alpha werewolves. Thank goodness werewolves don’t come in “ugly.” After her sister Scarlet mates the Ruling Alphas, things really start to get interesting. Gabby runs into not one, but two hotter than hot werewolves who make her tingle in all the right places. Yum. Of course, “yum” comes with baggage of both the mental and female kind. Lovely. Luckily it’s nothing a few punches and a good talking to can’t cure. Maybe…-ish.

Berke Davis and Jack Wright know that lush, curvaceous Gabriella is their mate. Who cares that they’re currently not part of an Alpha pair? Details, details. Burke has been half bound to his best friend Jack since they were four, but the past keeps them from solidifying their pairing and taking up the mantle of Alpha. Berke understands his friend’s feelings, but Jack is about to get a lesson on living and loving. Berke just hopes the lessons are learned before they both lose Gabriella. Especially when she is Challenged by a rival to first blood…a Challenge that could end in very permanent, and deadly, consequences…for Gabriella.


Official published review:
Time to alpha up
This book is equal parts laughter and danger, throw in some hot alpha angst and an emotional roller coaster, for one wild ride that you won’t want to get off. I love how the author continued the story of the sisters with more love and more fated pairings. It was a struggle in patience to see these three overcome their issues and it was all worth it. I can only hope that Whitney gets just as much enjoyment when she finds her mates, but does she even get a set as she has no mark? Only time will tell. I can’t wait to read the next book.

Mate Discovered:  Werewolf Shapeshifter Paranormal Romance (Alpha Marked book 3)
Published to Amazon on October 25, 2019
Author Celia Kyle


Thirty and single? Well, getcha butt to the Gathering!

Whitney Wickham is at the darned annual werewolf Gathering all right.  Only there’s one problem: she doesn’t belong there.  Her sisters carry the Mark indicating they’ll mate an Alpha Pair of wolves, while Whitney does not have that lovely, swirling scar.  She’s been hauled half way around the world to be stared at, and not-so-covertly sniffed, for no reason.  Unfortunately the gorgeous, drool worthy, magic-mojo-wielding Wardens don’t know why she’s been summoned to the Gathering any more than she does.  Which sucks. But at least they’re hot.

Emmett Greene and Levy Walters are Wardens—keepers of the law and embodiment of the magic of the werewolves.  They can never mate, never marry, and never form a lasting romantic relationship. It’s a hard and fast law that keeps their powers pure of outside influence.

Rules are going to be broken.

One look at Whitney, one hint of her scent, and they realize their immovable laws might have to jiggle. She’s got luscious curves, a wicked smile, and a mouth that would make a thousand men weep.  No matter the rules, their inner wolves will claim her. The only things standing in their way are the Elder Wardens who will do anything… anything… to keep Emmett and Levy from discovering the truth: the laws are wrong. And being with Whitney Wickham is so very, very right.



Official published review:
The shine of a new mate
Oh wow! I think this is my favorite book of the series so far. I enjoyed the hint of unexpected love, the danger as buried secrets are revealed and the excitement of victory. This book may be short, but the intensity is over the top, keeping the story moving and the reader enthralled until the HEA. I can’t wait to see where the author takes the series next.

Mate Hunted:  Werewolf Shapeshifter Paranormal Romance (Alpha Marked book 4)
Published to Amazon on October 25, 2019
Author Celia Kyle


Thirty and single? Well, getcha butt to the Gathering! Wait... What?


Rebecca Twynham hates nature, loves a juicy steak, is not Marked, and thinks wolves come in one form: on four feet and with fur. So when she’s hauled to the annual werewolf Gathering by this scary as hell magical vortex, she’s pretty surprised to find out werewolves are real. With that new knowledge, she finds she still hates nature, she’d love a juicy steak, and maybe—she might be—Marked. Well, she doesn’t see a Mark, but she also has heavy scarring from a childhood accident—or was it intentional? Plus, she really wants to climb the gorgeous Alpha Pair, Aidan and Carson, like a tree. Luckily the two hot werewolves wanna sink their roots into her flower and… The nature analogies have gone too far.

Aidan and Carson have been a strong Alpha Pair for fourteen years. They’re tied together by their bond, and ache to claim a woman as their own. But while Carson has always been the GQ ladies’ man, Aidan has been the afterthought—the heavily scarred and frightening werewolf who’s caused more than one woman to faint.

When they find Rebecca hiding in the Bad Doggie ballroom, they rejoice that they’ve finally found the one for them. Except with curvaceous, delicious Rebecca, their roles are reversed. Instead of rushing into the arms of sleek and sexy Carson, Rebecca clings to Aidan. Carson should rejoice in her acceptance of Aidan, but jealousy rears its ugly head, destroying their triad before it has a moment to form.

Then things go from jealousy-driven bad to worse when the five families decide there won’t be any more Wickhams joining the wolfy family trees.

Oh, right, she forgot that part. Apparently her Wickham cousins are kind of a big deal in werewolf land. Big.



Official published review:
A whirlwind of confusion
It’s a new year and a new gathering, but the Wickham sisters have brought back their sass and a few of their cousins ensuring another wild and outrageous experience. I love how the author brought back all of our favorite couples and is slowly bringing in more. She really did a fantastic job with the addition of these two alphas and the way they reacted to their mate and each other. I was never so happy to see a HEA, the three of them really needed it. I’m looking forward to the next book.

Mate Chased:  Werewolf Shapeshifter Paranormal Romance (Alpha Marked book 5)
Published to Amazon on October 25, 2019
Author Celia Kyle



Thirty and single? Well, getcha butt to the Gathering! Wait... What?

Lorelei is a hint over thirty—nobody better ask how much of a hint—and isn’t sure why the hell she’s been magically hauled to the land of werewolves. But she has. Which sucks. At least they stole her while she was at the gun range. Go Pink Pistol of Doom! So, they stole her, she stole a cell phone in return, and all is crazy in her new werewolf-laced world. It gets even crazier when, 1—she discovers her sisters have been kidnapped, too, and 2—werewolves are sexy as all get out. Lorelei is determined to come to her sisters’ rescue and well, see what Dylan and Zeke have to offer.

Dylan and Zeke can’t believe they’ve found their mate. Even though word was passed around that Wardens can have mates, they never thought they’d find theirs. And yet, here she is. Lorelei—gorgeous, lush, and curved in all the right places—calls to their magic and heats up their wolves. They want to lick her from head to toe… together. And they will, once they get that little gun out of her hands. Hell, maybe she could keep it. She is sexy even when she threatens their lives.


They found her and now they’re gonna mate her… as soon as they take care of the powerful five families threatening to take Lorelei from them. Blood may be involved. Sucks to be those guys.


Official published review:
It’s all fun and games until someone loses an eye
I love the blog posts and text messages at the beginning of the book. They are so hilarious and really set the tone for the high intensity situations that come after it. The author really brought us the perfect set when she put these three together. The guys need Lorelei to give them love and she needs them to give her comfort. I love all of the cousins, they are so strong and resilient. I can’t wait to see what happens with the last cousin. Hopefully she gets her HEA.

Mate Saved:  Werewolf Shapeshifter Paranormal Romance (Alpha Marked book 6)
Published to Amazon on October 25, 2019
Author Celia Kyle


Thirty and single? Well, getcha butt to the Gathering! Wait... What?

Paisley Twynham is over the whole werewolf thing. It’d been a shock to be magically kidnapped and plopped in the middle of a werewolf gathering. Then she got kidnapped a second time, had the crap beat out of her, escaped, and then met two men who are supposed to be her mates. Yup, all kinds of “over” the Gathering. Her only salvations are her sisters and… the two men she can’t help but drool over. Tall, muscular, sexy as hell, and for some reason, they want her fluffy ass. Maybe she doesn’t hate werewolves as much as she thought…

Chance and Hawkins don’t quite have a solid Warden bond. Hawkins is holding back while Chance is slowly reaching the end of his patience after ten years of partnership. The only woman who might save them is Paisley. Seductive, curvaceous, vivacious Paisley Twynham. She’s their Warden Born mate and Chance refuses to let Hawkins’ past stand in the way of their future.

But something else hides in their path that threatens to end their mating before it begins. Or rather, someone.


Official published review:
Release your fear
The author really outdid herself with these characters. Hawk is such a tortured soul and Chance is absolutely the most amazing alpha because their connection means so much to him that he hasn’t given up in ten years. And poor Paisley can’t seem to catch a break. The author might have given them a long road to travel, but she gets them to their HEA before the end. I really hope that the author writes some more of this series, I need to know how the ladies fair when the gathering takes place on their own doorstep.
