Gambit

by Madison Granger

Skylar Mason is Alpha of the largest wolf shifter pack in North America--rightfully won in battle after the tragic death of her father, held together by the ruthlessness he instilled in her. When the Council presses her to seek a mate, or at the very least, a consort, to continue her line, Skylar seeks a way to circumvent the inevitable. Jace Colton is second-born Prince and powerful mage of the White Tiger shifter clan. Focused on unlocking the key to the long-forgotten Seraphic magic, he doesn't want to be bothered with clan politics. An unlikely encounter in a coffee shop gives Skylar a chance to solve her problems and Jace a very real opportunity to achieve his dreams. Fate, however, has her own plans.

About the author

Madison Granger is a free-spirited late bloomer. She stubbornly lives by three beliefs: dreams can come true, never give up, and you're never too old to try new things. She is living proof of all three adages, vowing she isn't done by a long shot.

Born and raised near New Orleans and even closer to the swamps of south Louisiana, Madison Granger is no stranger to tales of the magical and different.

An avid reader, Madison grew tired of reading about young, flighty girls and began writing her own stories of mature women who aren't so quick to jump before looking first.

Gambit

A perfect shifter romance just in time for Valentine’s Day. I enjoyed the characters and with the perfect blend of sweet and sexy the story is sure to put a smile on your face.

This was such a page turner. The strength that Skylar has as the Alpha is described so well, yet she still has softness and compassion within her. She takes it all on and does what is needed. BUT she will not be told what to do. Jace- was not sure about him at first seemed a little passive or even weak. Well that only lasted a few pages! He is one tiger you would not want to mess with. I liked that once they knew they were mates they did not fight it just knew what it was and accepted it with open arms. Jace’s relationship with Skylar made me swoon. He loves her so much and is so protective -YET he lets her be the Alpha.
The danger in this book slips in and makes you hurt for Skylar and Jace. But the final outcome was the one that had to come.
This story kept you on the edge of your seat and yes I stayed up until it was finished. I looked on the authors website to see if this part of a series. At this time it does not state if it is, but this book just came out in Nov 2021. If it is not I suggest that it become one. One of her Guardians from the circle would be a good choice.

Skyler has been Alpha of one of the largest pack in the US. But now her council is pushing her to find a mate and produce young. But she's not ready to do that until she meets Price Jace Colton. He came to find out information about a certain scroll and knows immediately that she is his True Mate. This book shows us how two can come together as one, with so many people trying to pull them apart for their own gain. Thru all the threats, pain, torture, agony , they fight their way back to one another. Skyler and Jace are perfect other, they give each other what they need. Another great book from an amazing author, it's a true 10 star book.

“Absolutely in love with this story! Skylar was an amazing FMC. Since the first moment she proved to be a strong women and Alpha that wasn’t gonna allow other to choose for her. A huge shoutout for that killer attitude! Jace, he was adorable too. They were perfect for each other and there wasn’t doubt about it. The kid of story that proves that everything happens for a reason.”

Skyler is the female Alpha of the largest pack in the US. Her council is trying to get her to mate and have pups. She will do that when she's good and ready. Jace is a prince of his white tiger clan. He meets Skyler quite unexpectedly. What does Fate have in store for them?

Jace and Skylar have an amazing story. Meeting by chance, when they live on opposite sides off the planet. Jace finds what he's looking for, Skylar find a what she needs, the bad guys step up their game, and lots of suspense ensues. It's a very exciting story.

Loved seen a female Alpha who kept her ground as chief of the pack for so long and who doesn´t bend to what others desire her to do. Jace and Skylar are an awesome couple who got a very rough time but found a way to stay together!

[Shayne · Rating 5 out of 5]

Often if a female main character is super strong and then it's supposed to meet an Alpha, she suddenly becomes this insecure whiny pain. But not Skyler. That was refreshing. Jace was refreshing to as a match without feeling a need to tear her down.

Wow extraordinary

Honest my first book from this author and it was magnificent. There are so many little teases and so much action. It just wets your appetite for more of her exquisite work, Madison Granger is a truly wonderful word smith.
