Leave a comment

Raina Rayne has never had luck with men. Trusting someone she thought she could trust, she ended up losing her business, her confidence, and possibly ten years of her life. Not knowing where to turn, she heads to the only person she can trust. She hopes trouble doesn’t follow her.

Zane, a panther Shifter, is in Assjacket helping an old friend. Not a guy who makes friends quickly, he finds himself drawn to a human female. Living with the fact he would never find his mate, Zane is shocked at the intense feelings this woman elicits from him.

Two strangers, one running and one searching, meet in the most unlikely way. Welcome back to the town of Assjacket for more wickedly hilarious mixtures of paranormal personalities.

Review by Twinsie Angie

I was given this book by the author for an honest review.

If you are a fan of this series, you know what to expect?  Hijinks and comedy. This book doesn’t et you down.

Raine is running.  She runs to Assjacket to see her old friend Wicked.  Wicked is excited to see her friend but not so excited for her to share stories of their past.  LOL

Zane is watching a rogue shifter when he sees Raine.  He is intrigued by this human and wonder about the secrets she is holding.

This is a short and quick read with lots of Bruce because these stories need lots of Bruce in them.  Its another great addition to the series.

I enjoy reading this series.  It is a quick read with a bit of humor.

Raina Rayne is running from her past so she runs to the one person she knows she can trust Wicked. She finds herself in a bit of trouble while on her way to Wicket where she runs in to Bruce of all cats and one sexy panther shifter, Zane.

Zane is not sure what to think of this little human but he sure is drawn to her.  The need to protect her is strong.

I enjoyed seeing the chemistry between Zane and Raina. I was great to see Willow and her family along with all the other characters in Assjacket. This book would not be complete without the talking cat Bruce I just love him and his funny commentary. The dream Bruce has and how Raina alters it was quite comical.

Jake (The Protectors Series) Book #26 by [Teresa Gabelman]

After a tragic accident, Jake, former Dark Guardian, not only mourned losing his wife but carried the burden of a secret that only one other living person knew. Confronting that secret was the only way Jake could fight his heavy guilt when a beautiful ballerina dances into his life.

Jessie Reed loves everything about dance, but it didn’t pay the bills. Getting a job working with Nicole Callahan, Jessie is thrown into the VC Warrior and Dark Guardian world where she meets Jake, who saves her life not once, but twice.

Tormented by his feelings for Jessie, Jake still can’t seem to stay away from her, not realizing she had battles of her own. Slowly they build a bond that is shaky at best. As Jake and Jessie fight against the guilt that weighs heavily on them, neither realizes that a message from beyond the grave can give them the freedom of happiness.

Review by Twinsie Angie

I was given this book by the author for an honest review.

I am a big fan of this series.  I have loved how Teresa keeps the series fresh by adding new elements IE Witches, demons, etc to the overall arc of the plot.  Its not like Supernatural where they were just constantly saving the planet…get me?

We met Jake a few books ago when he was happily getting married/mated to Tracy, the love of his life and mate.  When she was murdered, on their wedding day, I was like “Aint no coming back from that” only to discover there is a story for Jake.

Jessie we just met a book or so ago.  She is Mitch’s niece.  We all love Mitch for the bossy boss of Nicole who runs the social agency helping orphaned children.  Jessie has seen Jake a time or two and is thankful he has saved her when she seemed to find trouble.  She is also understanding about the loss she knows Jake has had with Tracy.  However, she just FEELS something when he is around but certainly, he doesn’t feel that way….right???

I loved this story brings in another villain for the over all story named Gello not to be confused with Jell-O like Steve thinks. LOL  Oh Steve.  We also see a story for Daniel being percolated along with Jill’s storyline.  I am so loving that totally. I want to know what is happening in Teresa’s mind.

What I didn’t love, not that I didn’t love the story was….I missed Jake and Jessie.  Yes, they were in the story but I felt like their story was a secondary plot point.  I also felt this way about Ryker and Susan.  We saw both couples dancing around each other and then boom one chapter they are in love.    I know there are many more couples and story lines to keep up with, but I miss the original books where the couple seemed more front and center vs a side story.

Will I continue the series?  ABSOLUTELY!!  It’s a great series with amazing plot twists and turns.  The story never gets old and keeps you entertained 110%.

Review by Twinsie Melinda

I was given this book by the author for an honest review.

This series is one I can read over and over. Jake has now been added to the list as a reread. I really like how this book is building up to something big. I’m not sure how this world is going to end but with the warriors and Guardians you know it is going to be epic.

Jake has so much healing to do after losing the woman he loved on their wedding day. When he realizes Jessie is his mate he struggles with the loss of Tracy and knowing Jesse is his mate.

Jessie is Mitch’s niece and an amazing dancer. She is strong willed and a bit witty a perfect mate for our newest Warrior Jake.

There was a lot going on in the book. We see Jake and Jessie grow closer together and learn about one another. We see Jill deal with everything changing for her being a half-breed and not being released back into rotation. Being Sloan’s errand girl is not what she signed up for which forces her to make some hard decisions. There are the demons that are plotting to take out heir biggest threat and the Warriors youngest member.

I have to say I absolutely fell in love with king in this book. I loved everything about him at the dance competition he had me in stitches. I cannot wait to see what is in store for the Warriors and Guardians in the upcoming books. I know I will not be disappointed and will be on the edge of my seat like always.

Audio Review 2022

I purchased this audio book. The narration does a great job changing the voices and bring smart ass Hunter to life!!  I have enjoyed him for this series.

Review from 2017

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

Oh Hunter!! I was waiting not so patiently for you and you did not disappoint me at all.The book starts with Hunter returning from that little incident on TV…ya know where he outted himself as a shifter to save VC Warrior, Jill. Everyone in town is mad except for Garrett. He is relieved that Hunter is back to help defend the pack from other alpha’s. They looked at what Hunter did as Garrett not having full control of his of his pack.

When Hunter returns he can FEEL eyes on him and is stunned to realize they belong to a pair of grey eyes he has tried to deny his entire life……

Emily has loved Hunter her entire life. She has put with the fact she is the town joke. Hunter took her to prom only because he was forced to other wise he never gave her the time of day….every other woman has gotten his “time” but not her.

Emily is over loving him and her confrontation causes Hunter to come to terms with the fact he loves Emily. However, with one of his brothers also loving her, ex drama of hers, the town being infiltrated by other packs and haters wanting to keep Emily and him apart, he has his work cut out for him.

Can I get an AMEN for Steve, Slade and Jill being in this book!! OMG Steve…for real I cant wait for him to fall in love. He made me giggle so many times this book. I mean must Shake it off right!!?? Jill and Slade were as adorable as ever.

#WOTR23 #Audio #Reread – Refuge, Stone’s Wolf Sanctuary book 2 by Teresa Gabelman

Leave a comment

Consumed with a need for revenge, Cole Jackson becomes blind to all he should hold dear. It’s not until vengeance has been carried out that he realizes what he’s almost lost.

After being brutally attacked, Leeza Snow, has kept her head up with her pride intact. What everyone doesn’t see is the shattered heart she conceals, not only from her pack but from the man she’s destined to be with.

While time can heal scars, it will take trust to offer a promise of a happy future.

Goodreads

Amazon

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

This book picks up right after the end of Sanctuary, Book 1.  The guys have gone after and killed Foster.  Leeza is a broken woman.  She is sad the pack is upset at her for not protecting a younger female of the family but wishes things were different.  When Gemma mentions her rape, Leeza goes ape shit.  Nope sorry people she was not raped, and this untrue fact is why she gets the sad eyes from her pack members.

Leeza is a feisty woman.  When she confronts the brothers, it was my favorite scene.  She makes sure to set them straight on what they as her pack elders have done wrong and how they have let her down plus the memory of her brother, the old pack alpha, down.

Cole feels like a class A Jerk for not listening to Leeza, his mate.  He feels like an idiot for only thinking of his pain at not protecting her and not her pain at being attacked.

The two have some issues to overcome like his over the top alpha behavior at bossing her around.  Leeza is a strong, independent female who wants a partner not a dictator to love.  Cole needs to learn that females have wants and desires besides being cared for on a pedestal.  She wants to be involved in the pack plus earn her way.

I liked the story.  There wasn’t much conflict in this story, but it is set up for the drama to come in the next book.  Looks like Foster’s issues may not be out of the pack’s picture juuuuuuust yet.

Drowning in debt, the owner of Stone’s Wolf Sanctuary, Gemma Stone, is as exhausted as she is determined. Not only does she have to win over frightened, injured wolves daily, but she’s tired of those threatening to close her sanctuary down.

It’s not until Eric Jackson walked into her life that she sees a light at the end of the lonely tunnel she’s been traveling. To the surprise of both, they have more in common than either could have ever imagined.

O Teresa….you get me…you totally get what I like to read. #ShifterGirl #ParanormalGroupie
If you are a fan of Teresa’s, you will obviously need to buy this one because it’s a new possible series….Teresa???? Thoughts??? Begging??? Ok Pleading!! If you haven’t read her, uhm why? But then this will get you a quick look at her writing and awesomeness. Yes, that is a real word so leave me be.
Ok Gemma is a wear your heart on the sleeve kinda girl. She is going to protect her wolf sanctuary even if the townies and sheriff want her to pack it up and leave. She is following with her passion and protecting her grandfather’s legacy.
Eric is the alpha shifter of a near by pack of wolves. He is looking for a rogue shifter but also looking to see if the legend of a safe place for shifters is true.
When he meets her is stunned that this feisty and sassy human is his mate but also stunned that she cares for these wolves without thinking of her own safety. When Eric joins in the help her during a trying time the sparks fly and the couple end up opening up to what they know and who they are.
I loved the quick book and can’t want for more. I mean Eric’s brothers need a book plus we need to know about the bad guy Eric is tracking!!

Follow along to see how these exceptional women’s newfound freedom affect those around them and which Warrior may or may not support their feisty independent mate’s new and exciting path.

Review by Twinsie Angie

I was given this book for an honest review.

Man this storyline has been BUILDING from Ryker to the Thanksgiving novella and now it comes to a head in this novella.

Adam and Angelina have been through so much to be together and they seem to be stumbling with so much self-doubt.  Angelina thinks she isn’t enough for Adam anymore while Adam has his own demons causing doubt.

When Angelina makes a stand to decides to make her life something no matter if Adam is in it or night, she finds a skill and talent she is proud of.  She makes a big bold move to help the Warriors and makes Adam even more proud of his Angel.

Adam is devastated and angry at the loss of his mate.  He knows its his issue but is afraid of facing his fears and giving name to it.  With a little tough love from Daniel, Tessa and even Sloan, our warriors finds the strength and determination he needs.

I loved these two and the new storyline.  They have been through so much that it makes me happy seeing them grow up together.  They met and fell in love young but now are not kids anymore,  They are adults who need identities beyond being “so and so’s girlfriend/boyfriend/husband/wife”.

But can I say, the bomb that we get with Jake and Jessie from Raven…woof.  I am ready for this story line and next book for sure!!!  It is going to be a killer.

I am absolutely loving these holiday novellas Teresa is giving us.  They are a fun way to meet new characters (Jessie, King, and Butch), meet up with old characters (Dillion) and possible new love connections (Jake and Jessie)….HRMMMM

They are always moving our story line along plus getting us even more invested in the next story coming out which happens to be Adam and Angelina.  Guys, my heart is breaking with these two.  They fought so long and hard to be together….but doubts can be a bish to your soul.

I love the fact we might be seeing Sloan’s heart melting????  WHAT!!! I feel like maybe there could be a new little face in the VC mix and I am here for it!!!!

But what I loved the most was seeing my favorite characters all coming together to celebrate the kids…all kids….and helping their family member, Nicole, do what she does best.  Charity events for the kids.

Ryker (The Protectors Series #23)

Ryker did his job as a VC Warrior and did it well. His connection with Bonnie was the reason he ended up working under Sloan Murphy and he had no regrets. Being a Warlock with unique talents made him valuable wherever he went. It also meant that he moved around a lot going to where he was needed most. Because of this Ryker liked to keep to himself, that was until he met a spitfire blonde who talked to chickens.

Never had Ryker met anyone quite like Susan Dobbs. She didn’t use her looks to get what she wanted. Instead, she used her voice. Susan was smart, funny and Ryker enjoyed her company. His protective instincts kicked in almost instantly after meeting Susan but learning that she was alone in the world drew him to her in ways that surprised him.

It’s not until Susan’s life is put in danger does Ryker realize his true feelings for this woman. Knowing exactly what needs to be done, Ryker prepares for a battle he will not lose. Not even the deepest depths of hell will keep him from finding Susan.

Review by Twinsie Angie

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

I am so excited for where the series is headed after the way the last book ended. Teresa keeps the series fresh ad always evolving which keeps us readers invested in the characters.

Susan is a strong human female for sure. After Lana told us about her and their undercover days as police officers we know she can handle alot. Ryker is brooding, alpha who is new to the series but he sure has his eye on the feisty and sassy friend.

The books starts right off with Ryker entering the Demon Realm to save Susan. So much happens in this book between Susan and Ryker’s storyline, Adam and Angelina’s storyline, Daniels new storyline and the VC/Guardians storyline. This book is just massive in needing to pay attention.

Susan and Ryker are a great couple and seeing the fact everyone loves her helps her fit right in with the men and the mates. Adam and Angelina had my heart torn apart. These two are in love but they both need some growth to be able to be together. Daniel….wooof……I am curious about Sybil and his new “path”. I can only imagine what is coming for our family. The Guardians and VC are just a riot. Both feeling they are better then the other when we find out they need each other to deal with what is to come.

The book was one of my favorites with moving the overall story ARC along and getting us ready for what is coming.

I love these short novellas by Teresa.  The town of Assjacket is a fun and magical place.  Each book is another funny read for us fans.

This book we meet Dani and Butch,  Dani is a witch in hiding and Butch is the wolf shifter who is suddenly needing to protect her from the world.

Dani is hiding thanks to a curse her ex boyfriend and best friend placed on her.  Seems every man think about violence when they see her…well except for Butch.  When the shifter is jumping to her defense he soon wonders if he has found his mate.

Thorne, Wicked, Zelda, and Mac round out this hilarious addition to the series.  I gotta say I love The Bruce and all he brings to the series as well.

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

I enjoy the books in the series.  This one is about Dani and Butch. I loved Butch so protective and ready to take anyone out that hurts Dani. Dani is so sweet and makes me mad that anyone could do what was done to her. 

Dani was cursed by her ex boyfriend and ex BFF. Now no man finds her attractive and voice hurtful things about her even if they normally wouldn’t say it.  Everyone except Butch and our favorite familure Bruce. God I love Bruce. 

Butch doesn’t need a mate but with how he and his wolf reacts to Dani makes him rethink that.  He is ready to take anyone down when things start flying out of guys mouths.  

I did enjoy seeing the rest of the town residents and seeing how they jump in and help out new friends.  I cannot wait for more of this series and who we get to meet next.

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

Lord knows I have been in an uproar over my Jared being a douche canoe to his mate Tessa.  I mean I have loved this man since book 1 but I was about to jump ship to #TeamCharger.  However, after reading this book, I have forgiven him and totally understand the why for his attitude and major dickness…dickness is this a word…anyway…toward Tessa.

Tessa and Jared have always seemed pretty stable but as the series has gone on, we have seen little cracks in their HEA.  I mean first when she was turned and then as she wanted to become a VC Warrior.  Like Tessa, I was like WTF JACKA$$.  But I tell ya, the woman has more patience that I do because she is a people pleaser even if it hurts her in the end.  Well this book Tessa is DONE people pleasing and going to start doing HER for HER and if Jared can’t hang welp that is on him.

Jared, the king of funny joke and sexual innuendo is not doing so well right now.  He has MAJOR skeletons flying outta the closet and he can’t slam the door fast enough. The poor guy is trying to put out fires without giving away his past but with not dealing with everything PROPERLY he is not putting out the flames but inflaming them.

There were lots of teary moment in this book.  Seeing Tessa and Jared dancing around the issues and not really facing the problems out of fear of losing the other one actually made it 100x worse for both of them. Seeing and hearing about the impending bad dudes made the fear even more real for Jared which made him even more of a mess!!

When everything comes to a head, I had tears but seeing and feeling Jared’s pain made it even worse.  Friends this book was everything we have needed to see between Jared and Tessa.  They were no longer able to hide and no longer able to dance around all the issues.

I love the main series but the Mates series you seem to get more one on one with the OG couples and that makes me so happy!!!
