I received this book from the author for an honest review.

How can Teresa make the mates of the VC Warriors live up to the men? Well let me tell you she did it. These fierce women are strong willed, bad ass, and do not need a warrior at her back every second of the day to save her.  These women can handle their own but it is nice to have a warrior at their side.

Nicole loves Damon but has a feeling she is losing herself. She misses her work and believes she can and must help the children in the foster system. She loved doing her job and feels there is a need not only to help the kids but to satisfy her own calling.

The mates of the warriors realize they are not being treated as equal as the guys because they are females and the warriors have it ingrained in them that they are to protect the women. The women band together and decide to take matters into their own hands. They agree to help Nicole at the agency and also better themselves in becoming fierce warriors they know they can be without the guys help.

These women are AMAZING. They are strong and will not back down or give up no matter what is thrown at them or who throws them.  OH and believe me they have their time with one on one combat on the mats and in the field.  Nicole and the others can hold their own. Now the only question is will the warriors let them continue their crusade or will the end it? We can already see there are some warriors that over time are going to stand by their women and others that may draw a line that will be too hard to come back from.

I absolutely love these women as much if not a little bit more than the warriors.  I mean really who doesn’t love a woman that can kick some butt and take names later. I am so excited for this series and see each Warriorette become stronger and do as good a job or better than the Cock Club.

Abraham Hallow would do just about anything to get out from under his oldest brother, Josiah’s, thumb. That includes performing as the Luchador in the local semi-professional wrestling circuit. He gets more than he bargained for when he hooks up with a woman with multicolored hair. The draw to her is undeniable. He wakes up the following morning with the ancient mark of his ancestors, mating him to the mystery woman he met the night before.
It was a simple mission—find the infamous Hallow brothers, kill them, and bring back the amulet. Kai’s plans get derailed after one night of hot, crazy sex with a mask wrestler. When she finds out the wrestler was none other than Abraham Hallow, the youngest of the Hallow brothers, she is exiled from the mermaid kingdom. Yet the orders from her king still stand. Can she deny her ever-growing love for Abraham, or will she fulfill her duties of killing him?

OH my Abe here is another Hallow to love and the next one to feel the pull. Abe is the baby. I’m telling you at 21 years old he has had enough of all the baby of the family jabs. They taunt him, baby him, keep things from him and refuse to let him fight like the other brothers.So if they won’t let him fight he will go out on his own and keep that a secret from his family. If they cannot keep things from him he will keep things from them.

Kai has been owned all her life and she is darn tired of it. She is ordered to find the Hollow brothers kill them and return the Heka and amulet to her boss.  But when she is drawn to the masked fighter she soon realizes how that one time changed her life.

Kia is finally free and does not want to be owned by anyone. In her mind the mating mark means she is no longer free but now owned by Abe. She fights the mating pull.  It is up to Abe to show Kia what it means to be a part of a family and that he just wants to take care of her and protect her not own her. He started to show her that when he bought something to help her even though he caught hell from his brothers.

We learned so much more in this book.  There are so many other beings that we are being introduced to in this series. WOW the plot that carries over threw all these books keeps getting better and better. We are aware of more enemies and allies. I’m so interested in knowing more about Zeke. I’m thinking he may be my wolf.

Josiah Hallow carries the weight of the world on his shoulders. Literally. Between keeping his family safe as the head of the Hallows, training his six younger brothers for their individual turns in the MMA cage, and guarding his mother’s amulet from the creatures who want to use it to take control of the world, his sanity is about to break.

Mating with the pure Sarah Merit, an overly-religious school teacher whose body makes every fiber of Josiah’s being stand at attention, could finally push him over the edge. Unfortunately, despite the all-consuming sex that blazes between the pair, it isn’t enough to convince Sarah to live with him so he can protect her, as well.

When Josiah learns the secret Sarah is keeping from him, he makes a deal with the pair of vampires who run the MMA promotion the family fights for in an attempt to save her. But will he be able to save her again when Sarah is kidnapped and taken to Josiah’s grandfather, Atticus, the vicious alpha of a pack of werewolves in Maine? And what will Sarah do when she finds out the sexy corner of the Hallow Brothers is a werewolf, too?

I love this series and I’m only four books in this means I only have three more until it is complete. 🙁  I cannot get enough of these alpha shifters.

Joseph is the eldest and in charge of protecting the entire family after his dad died. He does not have time to do anything but coach his brothers and protect his family. Then he finds his mate at his aunts funeral who is a good girl, a school teacher and church goer.

Sarah is drawn to one of her friends nephew whom they called Satan’s spawn. He tempts her to do things that is against everything she believes in. She is tough and keeps Sam on his toes.

While these two are trying to figure things out Joe tosses one more thing in the fire when he makes a deal with the vampires. Then add in their grandfather who is determined to bring them home especially Joe. They are still trying to figure out this heka amulet vampire thing. Joe has a lot of things resting on his shoulders.

I loved how the brothers pulled together to get things done. Even the mates pitched in even though they caught heck for it. I also like how there is the main story line about the brother and then a story line that continues through the entire series that only becomes more complex when more characters are introduced. I need to find out what is next. Oh my there are only three brothers left.
