The Alpha's Mate by Michelle Fox

         

 

 The Alpha's Mate is the sequel to Bring Her Wolf by Michelle Fox. I haven't read the first book, while this is a stand alone novel, it did make me really curious to read the first story to see what happened first to get Jackson and Chloe together. This is a paranormal werewolf romance novel. We have a interesting story about a young girl who went from being a null (non-werewolf) to being the soon to be alpha's mate. Chloe is trying to wrap her head around everything that has happened. 

Jackson had a past, where he tried to find his mate by having sex with every female member of the pack before he found Chloe. But this past has caused many of his past partners to look down on Chloe and resent her. Vicki is Chloe's biggest enemy, and then Kelsy, Jacksons best friend from his old pack shows up and Chloe has to fear her mating due to these other women. Chloe's work is so uncertain and she is trying to learn who she is now that she has her wolf, as well as who she is to the pack as the alphas mate. This is a dark and dangerous story, with the standards of any romance.

Great easy read ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Anchor: Tie That Bind by D. E. Bonds

This is the debut novel by D. E. Bond. And it is AMAZING!  **Beware** This book will leave you with a book hangover like no other! But in the best possible way!

I was sucked in within the first paragraph. This novel is a dark twisted romantic novel that will take you on a roller coaster ride. I seriously became obsessed with the characters and the story. The first night I read this, I stopped to get to bed and found myself saying prayers for the Cali and Will, the fictional characters of this novel. Cali and Will are first loves, but after six years of separation when Will left for California and Cali stayed behind in Phili to open a bakery with her best friend. Fast forward six years and Will is almost wrapped up in CA and ready to head home, back to his girl Cali. However, Cali is in a relationship with Kurt.

Will will do anything to get Cali back, and he has no idea who Cali is actually involved with. This novel is dark, and dangerous, and makes you fall in love with Will. I had so much concern and fear for the situation Cali was in that I prayed Will could rescue her. This fast past novel, was dark and dangerous with nostalgic parts. The character development was so well developed I felt like the characters were all friends. I definitely can not wait for the next novel.

The Dom Who Loved Me, Masters and Mercenaries, Book 1 (Masters & Mercenaries) By Lexi Blake

I got the first three books in a book bundle for $.99! This was my first book by author Lexi Blake, and I'm quit made that I hadn't  found her before now!

First this book is the first in a series that currently has 10 books. This is not your typical book either! This book features Sean Taggart who is part of a security team that his brother runs. Most of the men are ex-special forces and pure sex on a stick. If your looking for strong alpha dominant men this is the book series for you. Sean is assigned to get close to Personal Assistant Grace Hawthorne. Sean needs to get close to Grace to learn if she is helping Matt's brother and being part of a eco-terrorist group. Grace is a 40 yr old mother of two grown sons. She lost her husband to a car accident and when she had to go back to work, know one would hire her except her boss Matt. Grace has such a lonely life, but she loves her work and is a very loyal employee.  Mean while Grace has been reading these romance novels, that make her want things. She reads BDSM novels, and she realizes that's a relationship she would be happy to explore, but doesn't believe anyone wants her. When she meets Sean her urges are sparked back to life, however her head can't wrap around the fact that Sean is in his 30s and she's 40 yrs old. She can't imagine anyone looking at her as a sexy women. Then when she learns Sean's a Dom and wants her as his Sub all things. Meanwhile we have a terrorist with the CIA looking for information and wanting to accuse poor innocent Grace of helping the bad guy.

Not only do you have amazing character development with an unusual love story you also have this romantic suspense story of trying to figure out who people are, are they telling the truth or are they really the bad guy. This is a fast pace, dark and suspenseful novel that includes a smoking hot Dom who introduce a brave, strong and independent older women to the life style.

Definitely give this book five stars! Can't wait to read the rest of this series.

Dead Ice; A Anita Blake Vampire Hunter Novel by Laurell K. Hamilton

I have been a huge fan of Anita Blake Vampire Series for a few years now. I love the fact that this series is so long! It gives a gal like me a chance to dive into a book, with amazing characters and live with them for weeks! This book was no different. I was taken aback by how huge it is, and though it might be filled with some 'fluff' but I should of known better. There is no fluff in this book. It is intense wild ride that you have to hold on and enjoy. There is so many different dynamic's that just take you back through the series. Sometimes it gets hard to keep up with Anita and all her lovers, but the thoughts and ideas are incredible. I get sucked into Anita's world and sometimes wish I could live there. This book is dark, but also a little nostalgic with a look back at some of Anita's pasts zombie/vampire hunts. It is so fast paced and so developed it's hard to keep up. I promise if you hold on you'll be in for an increasable ride.

Demon~ Book 4 of The Hades Squad by Jianne Carlo

Demon is book 4 in The Hades Squad Series by Jianne Carlo. This book is a stand alone book or can be read in order. I personally think that the other books have to be read in order, but this book takes place on location, verses with the rest of the Hades Squad. We do get to see some of our favorites, but not till the very end of the book.
This story is Demon's story. While he finds his lady love and has a similar story of where he falls hard and fast and wants to make this young girl his, its different because there is such mystery as well as a suspenseful story of trying to remain safe and hidden. Which of course doesn't happen because that would be a boring book. However the leading lady is strong and can more then take care of herself, I just wish she didn't have to face such difficulties in her young life. But because of all she's been through and all she faces in this book, show more than deserves to find a man who will love and protect her.
I loved this book because you have a strong alpha man who is ex-SEAL, and while he gets into many tight situations, its actually Jacinta who is only 20 years old, a virgin and lived her life at a cloister convent who shows how strength and determination can perceiver.
The only reason I didn't give this book 5 stars, is because I missed the dynamics of having the whole crew together. Having it just be Demon and Jacinta kind of felt like a dimension of the story was missing.

Devil~ Book 3 of The Hades Squad by Jianne Carlo

Devil is book 3 in The Hades Squad Series from Jianne Carlo. I loved this book. It was probably one of my favorites of the series. I loved the character development as well as the stead rhythm of the story.

We get to see Devil, like we have never seen him before as well as Jess, the best friend of the wife of Devils Friend, Sinner (Book 1). I loved that this book started off in a BDSM club, but these two really learn more about each other and their likes in dislikes in life (and the bedroom). It's not just about hot smoking sex, but that is there in full force in this book. But this book has such mystery that needs to be solved, with danger and discovery. I loved it!

Lucifer~ Book 2 of The Hades Squad by Jianne Carlo

In Book 2 of The Hades Squad we get to meet Lucifer, or Sax. He is a member of this elite team of former special ops military strong alpha men. The story starts off with an amazing one night stand that Sax is floored by. Up to this point, sex had just become a function that was a way to relieve stress. He wasn't into one night stands and preferred his sex buddy back home or masturbation. Until Sante Fe and this hot women who mad a bee line for him.

Its not until after their escapade that he realizes once will not be enough with this women. But she rebuffs him, and informs him she's engaged! Sax is furious, as this amazing women walks out. It's such an amazing role reversal right at the beginning of a story that sucks you right in.

We soon find our that the one night stand is Nalini, she actually knows Lucifer and sought him out. She is Indian and in an arranged marriage that she ran away from two years ago. She thinks having sex, losing her virginity will make the marriage contract null and void. Plus she has always had a thing for Sax since they knew each other back in Norway. When Lucifer realizes who she really is, he is pissed to say the least.

The emotions are real and very interesting. You have a women who doesn't want to be tied down to anyone, and the though of not being free, being her own person terrifies her. She ran away from everything and made it on her own so doesn't want to give u her freedom. However the man she was contracted to marry is not going to give her up without a fight.

This is another great story, with amazing character development that sucks you in, with interesting emotions as well as the dilemma of the marriage she is attempting to break off. This story gives us great emotions, with such hot sex scenes. I also enjoyed seeing some of the characters from the first book, as well as other members of Hades Squad.

Sinner ~ Book One of The Hades Squad by Jianna Carlo

I started this new series from a new author, similar to other ways I find new authors. I usually find them through Instagram recommendation from other book lovers, or via a daily email that I get about free or discounted books on Sale.

Sinner, the first book in The Hades Squad got my attention in one of my emails. It was a free Amazon book, and after reading the little description and seeing the Hot guy on the cover I gave it a chance.

This book is HOT! First you have a alpha male, who is military. He's a Navy Seal. He latterly falls out of the sky into a tree while, Destiny is in Alaska attempting to edit a book with an Author she despises. This girl is a strong chick! And actually rescues the big strong seal out of the tree. I love that the characters are both strong individuals. They don't need each other, and while they fight their chemistry, they eventually fall into bed. Thanks in part to a blizzard that blows in fast and trap's them in this remote cabin with no power.

While they each have their own struggles to deal with, Destiny learning that he father basically kidnapped her from her biological mother, and that her name isn't Sara Parker, but really Destiny Driven. A funny name that she makes her sound more like a porn star then a book editor. They both attempt to work on these issue through the book, while figuring out their feelings for each other.

I really liked the fact that you have this big strong alpha man, who took such a possessive claim on the leading female character. It's almost the opposite of what life gives us, with men more afraid to commit and admit their feelings towards a women. Sinner is not afraid to admit to himself and her that he's head over heals for her!

The character development was great, you really got to know these two plus others within the Hades Squad which leads you up to other books in the series. This is also a story that has more then hot steamy sex scenes. This book actually has some mystery and intrigue that helps draw you into the story.

This book, and the other in the series could be stand alone books, but I recommend reading them in order. I highly recommend this book.
