I bought this book from amazon.

AHHH  SO when the last book ended Moira was mated to the top shifter in the community, Blaze, and his mate of 500 years, Dante, who is a force to be reckoned with himself.  This book is about Moira trying to figure out where to fits into the guys life.  Sure she is their mate but what else is she?  What else do they expect of her?  She is a small town country girl living in a big city mansion.

The whole book is Moire kinda falling inside of her head and worrying that maybe the guys made a mistake.  The guys are so lost.  Their confident, sassy shewolf is a mess and they don’t know why.

When Moire’s heat cycle hits she has to make a decision : claim my men for what I want and need or wait and cause myself more and more pain and heart ache.

about the author

A storyteller from the time she could talk, Ellis grew up among family legends of hauntings, psychics, and love spanning decades. Those stories didn’t always have the happiest of endings, so they inspired her to write about real life, real love, and the difficulties therein. From farmers to werewolves, store clerks to witches—if there’s love to be found, she’ll write about it. Ellis lives in the Chicago area with her husband, daughters, and two tiny fish that take up way too much of her time.

I bought this book from amazon.

I am so loving this serial series.  I am kinda sad there is only 1 left in the boxed set I purchased.

This book we finally get to see Blaze again.  WE met the president of the gathering in Gideon’s book.  He and his mate Dante have been mated happily for over 500 years but it seems they are destined to be a triad and they haven’t found the 3rd part to complete them.

Moira is sad and happy.  She is happy so many in her pack have found their mates but because she has taken on the main alpha role to let Killian and his new mate get to know each other, she is left mateless again.

Moira says screw it one the last night and decided to go to the end of the gathering party.  She is is annoyed that yet again she is left dealing with a DB alpha but she can FEEL her mate…..she sees two men but is confused.  Which one is her fated.  After a mix up and even more heart break Moira goes back to her room to sulk.  Little does she know tomorrow’s meeting will change her life!!

The trio are a hot read but we feel for Blaze and his worries and concerns.  I am looking forward to the last book which is actually more of these characters.

The biggest event of the social season, the Gathering has become the favorite method of networking among packs and bringing together fated mates. At the Gathering, shifters from across the country show up to show off and to see who’s the true leader of the pack.

Day two of the Gathering is set aside for interpack business. Shewolf Kalie and her new mate find this truth out the hard way, as her Alpha demands she spend time with another male shifter in the hope of an alliance. Gideon Kelly assumed finding his mate would be the hardest part of the Gathering, but watching Kalie be charmed by another man while he’s forced to stay on the outside tests the shifter’s control. When an innocent gesture is taken out of context, Gideon goes from respecting an Alpha’s rules to breaking them, while Kalie fights for her right to claim and be claimed.

Come and enjoy tales from the biggest shifter event of the year as wolves from around the country fall in lust, in love, and in fate at the Gathering.

After I grabbed book 1 for free off amazon, I went ahead and purchased the 4 book set.  EEEP I am loving it.

This serial is something new for me.  I have never read a book with an Omega before so I was stoked.  Kalie is an Omega for her very small wolf pack.  Her duty it to mate and produce more Omegas.  This is why she is at the gathering.  She is here to meet a Beta from another clan.

Gideon is looking for his mate.  He helped Killian get his mate but he needs to run and find his.  He is stunned when on his run he sees the beautiful red head and knows she is his fated mate.

After a little incident to two meet and get to getting to know each other.  However, Kale has a duty for her people.  She must meet with the Beta and his Alpha for a lunch.  WELL that meeting didn’t go over well since the other alpha was a DB and her mate was not happy seeing his woman with another wolf.

I loved seeing where the lunch date did take us and hope to see that beta again really soon!

Gideon and Kalie’s claiming scene, or scenes as it were, were super hawt!!!  Can’t wait for the rest of the books!

I grabbed this book off Amazon for free.

SO I am a huge paranormal girl an when I saw this was a free book in a serial I thought why the heck not.  I know some people are not fans of serials but I love them.  They are short and quick reads so a blogger like me can fit a few in a day to read.

Shifters are favorite genre of mine.  This book is about a lot of shifters gathering to mingle in hopes of finding mates.  Killian is the alpha of a apck of shifters who haven’t come to these gatherings for many years t de to dwindling mates being found he decided to give it a shot.

He walks in and immediately finds his mate.  Lyra is unfortunately stuck with a DB of an alpha who thinks woman can and should be forced to submit to him and in his bed.

The story is how the two are trying to sneak off to in fact “mate” and claim each other before her alpha discovers them.  He can nd will keep them apart because he has the ability to deny Lyra to this man even though he knows what Lyra and Killian are to each other.

#WOTR Rush by CA Harms

writers-on-the-river-attendingauthor-2017

Title: Rush
Series: Montgomery Men #1
Author: C.A. Harms
Genre: Contemporary/Suspense Romance
Release Date: Available Now


I was running from my husband, a man I thought I’d known. 

Running from the hell he had put me through. 
He’d nearly destroyed the woman I had once been and 
I would do whatever it took to regain my freedom. 
I would lie, and cheat. 
I would steal if it meant that I never had to go back there. 
I’d run and keep running… 
But there was one problem. I hadn’t planned for Ashton Montgomery. 
He was a distraction I couldn’t allow. Not if I wanted to stay safe. I had to remain distant, but he was relentless and had other ideas. 
I caved because I hadn’t thought it all through, not in detail. 
If I had I would’ve realized that you can only live in a fantasy world for so long before everything came crashing in around you. 
And those lives you’ve destroyed along the way, make you no better than the monster you were trying to break free from. 
How could I have been so careless? 
It wasn’t meant to turn out this way. 
But the Rush of my freedom took control and I forgot how important it was to keep the secret of who I had once been. 
And now I had nothing. 
Only the fear that the man I’d run from would find me again, and finish what he started.

Readers Thoughts!

“It’s raw, I am literally STRIPPED of emotion right now. It’s racy, Ashton is SO FREAKING HOT, I swear I’m on fire.” – Bookalicious Babes Blog 

“This book gutted me in certain places and made me laugh in others. But most importantly it was amazing..” – Reader Review

“Ashton Montgomery will steal your heart!” – Author Kaylee Ryan

EXCERPT!
She’d turned on her heel and begun to walk toward my office door when without a second thought I hooked her around the waist and pulled her body back against my own. She yelped, but I didn’t let it halt me.
The smell of her perfume mixed with her shampoo filled my nostrils, and for a moment I just took in the fragrance. I had never smelled anything more appealing. “Let me prove it to you,” I whispered. She was tense in my arms, and I knew I needed to tread lightly. Something told me that telling her I wanted nothing more than to pin her against the wall, reach beneath her skirt, and find the spot that drove her crazy would only terrify her. Yes, my usual tactics would not work on Kiera.

 

“Have dinner with me,” I whispered against her ear. “You pick the place and the time, anywhere you want.” I fought the urge to demand her presence, which was my usual method because most women I ran across said yes without hesitation.

 

But she wasn’t like the women I’d been with in the past.
“Today was refreshing after all the tension faded,” she confessed, and I felt relieved that she thought so too. But it faded as she continued to speak. “I think it’s best that we keep things between us strictly professional. I just don’t have room in my life for anything more.”
I felt like she’d just kicked me in the nuts.
“I don’t know what happened to you,” I said in return, and though she tensed in my arms again, I went on. “I don’t know why you’re so scared of giving this thing between us a chance, but I won’t give up. It’s not who I am, Kiera. I’m a fighter, and when I have my sights set on something I want, I don’t give up until I’ve won.”

 

I moved closer, making sure she could feel my lips against her neck when I continued to talk. “And you are all I think about. It’s quite distracting.”
Chills covered her neck and shoulder as she shivered in my arms.

 

Fighting my arousal was becoming more and more of a challenge. I was so fucking wired and turned on I felt like my balls were about to explode.
“I don’t lie, and I don’t hide the way I feel.” I closed my eyes tightly and tipped my head just enough that her hair brushed against the tip of my nose. God, her scent was pure heaven. “I want you, Kiera,” I confessed, becoming lost in her presence, lost to the feel of my body pressed tightly against hers. “I know that seems to terrify you, but I need you to know. I won’t stay away; I can’t. I want to feel you against me, hold you close, and hear the sound of your pants in my ear. I won’t lie to you, Kiera,” I reiterated. “I won’t ever lie to you.”
