Tabitha ConallReseñas

This is a very short story about werewolves Mattie and Colin. She’s from the North American pack, and he’s from the Scottish pack. At a multi-pack meeting in Scotland, they sniff each other for the first time, and their attraction is immediate. It’s insta-lust and love. But they have a problem. The Atlantic separates their homelands and neither wants to move.
Will they find a way to stay together?
Mattie and Colin are adorable. The author briefly explains how there are different but similar worlds in existence with each other and how these worlds overlap. I found it intriguing even though I didn’t really understand it. Luckily, it’s not needed to understand and like the story.
This book is well edited, and though it’s considered the first book in the Colliding Worlds series, it feels more like a prequel since it’s so short at only 6000 words. I definitely want to check out more books in the series.

In the second book of the Colliding Worlds series, North American Pack Alpha Darius Bishop wants to negotiate peace between the wolves and the militant Humans First organization. He arranges for peace talks even though members of his council thinks the gesture is futile. To his surprise, he finds his mate among his enemies and has no recourse but to kidnap her.
Aislinn Cavett wants peace with the wolves. Her father, the leader and general of the Humans First group, wants to destroy the wolves by any means necessary, and Aislinn has learned long ago to not go against her father’s wishes. After the peace talk goes awry, one of the wolves kidnap her, but she’s not afraid. For the first time in her life, she’s finally free from her controlling family and from their bigoted hatred, but she knows she must return to them to prevent all-out war.
Darius and Aislinn are amazing and well rounded characters. They have instant chemistry, but the odds are stacked against them. Darius knows what he wants but that differs from what he needs to do. He’s a strong, capable, self-sacrificing hero. He’s a true leader, and I absolutely adored him! Aislinn is just as smart and stubborn, and Darius’s perfect match.
I love the world building. There are different Earth dimensions that are overlapping each other, which means humans and a variety of supernatural creatures are living together on one planet. Each species knows about the other, which causes rife and mistrust, but there are many that want unity and friendship among the different species. I really like the fact that the wolves, humans, and other supernatural creatures hold TV press conferences like they’re political officials, and that public opinion weighs a lot on how each species acts toward one another.
The story is tight and well written, but there are a few minor quotation mark typos in my pdf copy. I really enjoy the author’s writing style, and I look forward to reading more books in this series.

In the third book of the Colliding Worlds series, Lachlan meets Kiera, a beautiful dragon slayer who wants nothing to do with him. She and her twin sister, Gillian, break into his stronghold to nab Damon, a dragon and one of Lachlan’s tentative allies, but Damon flees into the night. Gillian follows, but Lachlan stops Kiera and tries his hardest to convince her they’re mates.
He’s a werewolf, the alpha of the Scottish pack and the alpha of all the United Kingdom wolves, and he’s about to go to war with his cousin who’s the alpha of the English pack. Sebastian wants to be the UK Alpha even though the birthright belongs to Lachlan. The war has been brewing since the first book in the series and everything finally comes to a head.
Though Lachlan is smitten with Kiera right away, it takes her longer to trust him. Their relationship slowly blooms but the threat of war drives them closer together. Their friendship and love is very believable, and I really liked both these characters.
The world building is very interesting but a little confusing. Several millenniums ago, the humans on Earth Prime dreamed up various creatures, and those creatures popped into existence on alternate earths in other dimensions. When two earth dimensions grow closer together and start overlapping one another (before they become one), the special people called “world-walkers” can travel between the two worlds. When two dimensions finally collide, they become one earth, and the inhabitants from each earth are stuck together.
The side characters are very interesting. Damon and Gillian’s problems aren’t resolved in this story, and I’m really looking forward to reading their book. The same goes with Sebastian and Greer, Lachlan’s sister. After the bad thing Sebastian did in this story, he and Greer are definitely going to have problems in the future.
The story is well edited and the plots well thought out. Lachlan’s and Kiera’s POV is properly divided between scene and chapter breaks. This is a very good story, and I’d love to read more.

In the fourth book of the Colliding Worlds series, werewolf Jennalynn Bishop is the fourth ranking member of the North American Pack. She’s also the pack alpha’s only sister. When her brother Darius sends her on a very important assignment, she’s determined to succeed no matter what. She needs to find a world-walker, a person capable of traveling between dimensions. While on the hunt, she finds more than she bargained for in a smooth-talking, charming vampire, who just happens to be her mate.
Vampire Antonio de Marco is an assassin for hire but an outcast among his own kind. Most vampires are cold, emotionless, heartless creatures, but Antonio follows his heart and allows his emotions to control him. The Vampire Council orders him to find the world-walker, and though he considers the task both an honor and a way to line his pockets, he knows his life is on the line if he fails to secure what the council wants. Then he meets sexy wolf Jennalynn, but his charms don’t work on her. For wolves, they know who their mates are by smell alone, but it takes vampires longer to realize if they’d found the soul mate. For Antonio, he’s not sure if Jennalynn is the one, but the more time they spend together, the more he’s hoping she’s the other half to his soul.
I love stories with a twist. Jennalynn is a strong, kickass werewolf, and she ends up saving the hero’s life more than once. It’s so rare to read a romance book when it’s the woman who is rescuing the man. Even though she had to save Antonio, he didn’t come across as weak or less than a man. He’s very intelligent, respectful, and strong in other ways.
The world building is one of the best parts about this series. In each new book, there’s new information and more details about the various earth dimensions and the creatures living on Earth Prime. I really enjoyed the addition of the world-walker and the possible trouble to come when the next floating dimension collides with earth.
The story is well written and has great pacing. I love the author’s writing style, and I’m soooooo anxious to read the next book in the series. I cannot wait for it to come out!

** This review is for Happily Mated After by Anna Lowe **

Happily Mated After is a bonus epilogue to [b:Desert Heart|27043692|Desert Heart|Anna Lowe|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1444404734s/27043692.jpg|47084171] and exclusively featured in the [b:Wicked Alphas, Wilder Nights|26849661|Wicked Alphas, Wilder Nights (Wicked Alphas, Wild Nights #2)|Anna Lowe|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1443747757s/26849661.jpg|46796301] collection.

This was a sweet little novella featuring Rick and Tina from Desert Heart. We are given a delightful taste of the authors writing. I just love Ms. Lowe and how she portrays her shifters. The connection the human and wolf half's have with each other is unique and easy to follow. The author also does a satisfying job recapping this couples relationship, but not giving to much away, so when you do read their story in Desert Heart you won’t feel like things are spoiled.

This was a wonderful sweet read in The Wolves of Twin Moon Ranch and I can’t wait for more. If you enjoy sexy cowboy wolves then you should give this series a try. It’s one I highly recommend.

transitiona are a bit abrupt - to be expected in a short. Good story line.

I'm going to pay favorites here.
I LOVE Jake.
Now here is an Alpha I can jump all over.
He's yummy.
The author messed up the scene after Sam got injured though, hopefully she's fixed it by now, I have had my copy for a long time.
I enjoyed it indeed.

Werewolf Alpha Darius is trying to bring peace between his people and humans. Aislinn, daughter of General Cavett who wants to destroy all werewolves, turns out to be his mate. How will they be able to work it out?

I enjoyed Darius and Aislinn. Though surrounded by powerful and power-hungry men, Aislinn is no shrinking violet. She has opinions and is willing to give them. She also has brains and is willing to use them to avert war and get Darius. Darius needs to give Aislinn more credit than he does. The secondary characters are strong. They are needed to bring the conflict to the story and to drive it towards its end but some of them are scary.

I liked the world building shown in this story but I would like to see an expansion of it. I would also like a better explanation of how the worlds collided and the affects of the collision on the worlds. So far I have only gotten a glimpse of it. This is a very interesting concept and I would like understand more of how the collision has affected the beings involved.

Like most boxed sets, this has some good, some not so good.

Overall a fun read. None of the books are very long, some are short novellas, but fun to read if you're into paranormal romance books.

Dr. Piper Holems is a fertility expert, a cougar shifter and about to get stuck in a cult. Gabriel Calvin asks piper to come work in White Fir Bend to see is she can figure out why the birth rate is so low. She doesn't know and he doesn't tell her that it is a cult. He also doesn't tell her that he has no plans of letting her leave and that he will pick a husband for her.

Piper starts to interview the women and discovers how young most of them are now and when they first got married. Also, the fact that they are being abused and that their are multiple wives for one man. Doesn't take her long to figure out it is a cult and that she needs to do something to help these women.

Deliliah Calvin, one of four wives to Owen Calvin, Gabriel's nephew, wants to leave and wonders if the new Dr. will help, but if she does leave she has to take her sister-wife, Becky, with her. She can't leave her behind.

Tiger Kane, or just "Kane", was kicked out of White Fir Bend Cult when he was 15. That was fine with him, except his mother is still there and he wants to get her out. He and 3 of his Ranger buddies go to White Fir Bend so he can talk his mother into leaving. Only she refuses.

Piper approaches Kane about helping to get Delilah, Becky and herself out of White Fir Bend. Will he help or will she have to figure out away by herself?

Lies, secrets, deception and revenge. What a mighty cocktail.

Fated Mates: The Alpha Shifter Boxed Set by Michelle Fox, Adriana Hunter, Liliana Rhodes, Lynn Red, A.T. Mitchell, Skye Eagleday, Alexis Dare, Eve Langlais, Georgette St. Claire, A.E. Grace

Let me start by stating that I am a shape-shifter-a-holic. So to say this is the perfect box set for someone like me would be an understatement. One of the things I love about boxed sets by various authors is it gives you an opportunity to discover new authors as well as offer you the comfort of reading the work of writers you have enjoyed in the past.

While having the common shifter theme, each story is very different and refreshing. I definitely felt like I was reading a distinctive story with every author. Each one was enjoyable and kept me engaged. This is a must buy for any paranormal shifter lover!
