Ombra Pack Chronicles #5

Hunter's Forbidden Mate

Rate this book
Logan
It's been almost fifteen years since I stepped foot in this small town and it's almost like nothing has changed. Then I run face-first into my childhood best friend and I couldn't be happier. But there's more to him now than I remember. He's hunky, charming, and has the most beautiful hazel eyes I've ever seen. He's still just as much of a himbo as I remember, but he protects me when some local drunks try to start a fight. Now I can't take my eyes off him.

Hunter
Seeing Logan again brought back so many memories and a rush of feelings I didn't expect. The more I stare at him, the more I realize I feel more than just friendship toward him. I want to hold him, protect him, and let everyone know that he's mine. But I've never dated a man before and I'm terrified to tell him the truth. I'm not the smartest guy, so I'll probably mess it up. And there's the fact that I'm a werewolf and he's human. Exposing my world could put him in danger. But living without him sounds like a fate worse than death.

WARNING: This spicy wolf shifter romance contains jaw-dropping twists, sizzling love scenes, gay for you, a himbo alpha, childhood friends to lovers, and a happily ever after that will leave you speechless. It should only be read by those who like their werewolves hot and their broken boys shown the love they deserve.

ILS ÉTAIENT ADORABLES 🥹🤩
C'était vraiment un amis d'enfance to lovers de qualité supérieure, pleine de romance et de loups, comme on les aime awn ~

Ils se retrouvent genre 15 ans après comme s'ils s'étaient séparés hier, le coup de foudre amicale s'est transformé en coup de foudre amoureux et même si hunter s'est toujours vu comme hétéro, le retour de Logan et le fait qu'il soit son compagnon aura été fatale !

Évidemment, trop beau pour être vrai, sa meute ne sera jamais d'accord pour un loup bêta ayant un compagnon humain et masculin, c'est le nœud évidemment de cette histoire !

Nan mais un vrai régal cette série, je suis super fan du début à la fin ~

A super cheesy book but I enjoyed it. I'd definitely read another one of this authors book. It might have been predictable but I didnf expect it want to get more out of this book than I went in for. This is the first if it's kind that I read and I had a good time
It made my smile and chuckle. There were some funny lines I had to make sure to highlight. The book was simple and I loved that about it. It helped to bring my out of a slump. And I'd even dane to say I could read it again someday. Maybe lol. Anyways if you're in a slump and enjoy gay werewolves with some spice. And you're down for some quick and light. This is the book for you.

side note I would have liked a better resolution with Hunters family but I'll take what I got as opposed to nothing.

🎧Hunter and Logan are so cute! The story of childhood friends being reunited made this story all that much better. Then that they’re mates, yes please. There were some one liners that had me laughing “My heart nearly fell out of my butt.” “The whole room went so silent, you could hear a mouse fart in the walls.” Then there were parts like when Logan said he couldn’t believe he’d moved to the small town and found family.
Book 4 had some politics in it, this book had a lot of the family politics present (hatred towards LGBTQIA+ community). While it improved as the story went on, it was part of the plot, but I didn’t like it. However, I understood the storyline and why it was there. Hunter and Logan did get their HEA, so I was happy!

I enjoyed the story. Hunter and Logan are a good pairing. My only real complaint is it might have been edited a little better.

Very much in keeping with the series. Man and werewolf. Oops they are mates. Opposition, love conquers all.

Non mi ha convinta fino in fondo ma comunque è leggibile. Vari errori grammaticali e di sintassi, verbi sbagliati e via dicendo.

Es la que menos me ha gustado, ya que la relación se desarrolla sin ningún problema.
Solo al final se anima un poco con lo que sucede.
