Operation Wolf: Gunner (Wolf Elite #1) by Sedona Venez

This is an interesting concept for a shifter world. It amazes me that these shifters are living in major cities with heighten senses. The noise of the city would be very loud and all the people talking at one time. The author does distinguish between hybrid and pureblood, and how mates are chosen. All I have to do is go around and have sex with every male and when I see flashing lights and have the best sex ever, I have found my mate. Seriously, this is just a license for bad choices and one night stands. As for the couple, I expected no less of a soldier protecting a woman, especially one whom he is attracted to and now bound to by their one night stand. Juliette like all women, realize they can't live with the logical choice and decides to fight back, because let's face it, who wants to be stuck married to someone who makes us nauseous when they touch you. I'm routing for Gunner!

A Wolf's Love (Wolf Mountain Peak #5) by Sarah J. Stone

As I started to read this, I thought what kind of love story is this? It's a about familiar love and all that goes into it. I kept wondering where it was going and how were we going to get there. Some parts actually made my jaw drop and my thought was she just killed off two characters with one stone. There is an evil that the Helena and Raul have not considered and the endlessly way that the author got to the point made me considering putting it down until the jaw dropper. The rest of the book will entertain you and keep you in your seat until the end. Good Luck.

I received an Advanced Copy and this is my honest review.

Fifth Generation Cowboy (Three Rivers Ranch #4) by Liz Isaacson

I love these stories about Three Rivers Ranch. Every story reflects difficulties that couples face and learn to overcome through their faith. Rose and Tom are no different. Rose is divorced and raising a daughter with autism. Tom is a cowboy who Mari likes immediately and works at a business called Courage Reins that is therapeutic horse ranch. Toms has his own fears and it takes a lot for him to extend himself. Which he does, because he likes Rose and she needs a friend. What develops from that friendship will be test, but what couple hasn't faced that test.  Liz Isaacson brings heart and hope to her characters and her readers.

Convenient Lies (Hidden Truth Book 1) Kindle Edition by Robin Patchen

This is a scary scenario and I loved the book. I wasn't sure how the author was going to wrap it up and there is a surprise to how it ends. I give my approval. So if you love suspense, drama and sudden twists and their are several of them, you are going to enjoy this book.

The Pendleton Secret by Agnes Forest

This was a strange love story, but it captured my attention. A secretary in this day an age would not be worth Catherine Pendleton's time. But it seems that Catherine has led a very sheltered life. Her father arranges a marriage to pay off a debt, but the secretary of the man brings his fears to Catherine because he is in love with her. It captured my attention, because I wasn't sure how the author was going come out of this one. The story is slow going at first, but pick up as we get to the climax. Lloyd flouted the rules of etiquette, but he was desperate to help Catherine from marrying Baron Bouchard.

Her Father's Protector: A Highlander Tale (Highland Valiance Series Book 3) by Fiona McKellar

This is a good love story with a heart wrenching twist, but this kind of love is fated. The only thing I didn't like about the book was the conclusion. It was confusing and the author should possibly re-write it.

This book is an Advance Reader Copy and this is my honest review.

Winning the Merchant Earl: Sweet and Clean Regency Romance (His Majesty's Hounds) (Volume 8) by Arietta Richmond

It seems these two get themselves in their own way. Interesting characters for them to get together with that streak of stupidity. I did enjoy the story and how the characters coped differently when they were away from each other. The height of climax fell in the middle of the book, however, but it continued on to bring the story to a satisfying conclusion. One point however, the author used the Prince Regent unabashedly. 😇😇😇
