Fed up with the hollow glitz and fakery that is Hollywood, screen siren Kristen Mann heads home to Stratton to get her feet back on the ground and re-charge. Things don't go quite to plan when her car breaks down, leaving her to be rescued by her very own knight in shining armor. Only this knight isn't any ordinary man. He's a werewolf with his own ideas on dealing with damsels in distress.
Kyle Roberts has watched every film Kristen has ever made, so when she falls into his lap, or more accurately, he tows her little car back to the workshop he runs with his uncle, he can't believe his luck. But his admiration for her acting abilities doesn't stop his wolf scenting the woman it wants. So what if she's older than he is? Age is just a number, and there are a few digits he'd like to introduce her to...
But when Hollywood comes calling, in the shape of a slick agent and a rabid pack of reporters, can Kyle put aside his pride and convince Kristen that he's the wolf for her?
Mina Carter is a New York Times & USA Today bestselling author of romance in many genres. She lives in the UK with her husband, daughter, a puppy who pays no attention to her whatsoever, and a bossy cat.
These two were smoking ass hot. She’s a Hollywood actress there to see her friend Kelli (from book 1) when her car breaks down. Kyle’s the guy that comes out to tow her car. From the hot second they meet, they can’t keep their hands off each other....and they don’t try to, they just go with their instinct and chemistry. Great safe read, with some steamy scenes and a really good storyline. Love the ending, but would have liked an epilogue to see how they end up in the long run...maybe next book.
Surprisingly I quite enjoyed this one. Kyle was cute. Kristen was cool. Good smut, good story. End was kinda weird but I will just pretend it makes sense
This was a terrific story up until the resolution, which strained my credulity both in terms of time (seeing her on the red carpet on tv in his hometown and then he's there in a suit?) and for that the fact that he lost faith in her when the paparazzi and her agent arrived and he and his uncle turned on her so quickly. Excuse me if I think asking a few questions and actually sticking around for an answer to be the more accepted reaction when you claim to care about someone. I think her just accepting him back in front of millions like nothing was wrong to be unrealistic. A couple more pages to this short ebook could have solved these problems and given two wonderful characters the happily ever after they deserved.
This was a fast read. Hot and smexy story! Loved how sweet and sexy Kyle was. That bitch Jenna isn't gone yet? Ugh. :) Anyways, I didnt think of Kristen as a "cougar". She was only about 10 yrs older and what that made her 35 since he was 25? She's older yeah but not cougar material. LOL. I wanted to bust him up for how he treated her and wouldnt even let her explain anything he just took off so fast and sprayed her with gravel...which I would have kicked his ass for. lol. Finally came to his senses and tracked her down. It was too short and I wanted more to their story. Great read though.
Kristen just wanted to get away from everything. When her friend Kelli called, she knew it would be the best vacation, till the rental broke down. Kyle was sent out on a run to help a woman on the side of the road. He didn’t expect it to be “Krystal Kerr” the actress. What was she doing out here? But when he gets close to smell her, WOW. Little red was going to be eaten by the big bad wolf.
You had to feel for Kristen. She was a celebrity but she didn’t seem to be happy about any of it. When she meets Kyle she knows he’s hot and sexy but he is also younger than her. And what would a younger guy see in her. I love Kyle. For all his innocence at time, he was one sexy “blank blank.” And I loved the dirty talk. You have to love a man that can do that well. I cried a bit towards the end when the press showed up but it’s all good.
I liked Kyle from the first book and really happy he gets his happiness now and wow a movie star and kellies friend! And Kellie is on baby number 2 lol anyhow very good reads and sexy scenes
Thoroughly enjoyed reading Kristen & Kyle's story very much. I love reading a happy ever after story it makes me happy after a hard day. Thank you for writing this story.
All the heat, and then, confusion? These two were electric from the moment they encountered each other, and sustained that until her life interfered. Here is where I got confused, because while I loved that these two ended up together, how did he get there to surprise her? Still a great read <3
I liked this book but I thought it could have been better. I have the same complaint as with book 1. It just sort of ends. It's not a cliffhanger but it could have used another chapter to wrap things up. Maybe even an epilogue. It does leave me feeling a bit cheated at the end. If I read the whole story, I'd like to also be able to read about the resolution to the problems.
I preferred the first book to this one. I didn't particularly like Kristen. For one thing, is she supposed to be a big movie star or a porn star? The red carpet etc. would suggest glamorous movie star but everywhere else it sounds more like she's a porn star. I just didn't really warm to that character.
Overall, it's a decent enough story (although there isn't really any shifting going on), it's well written, and the author has a pleasant style of writing. It's good but it could be better with a little extra work.
Car trouble should be the worst day but turned out to be the best
What luck did Kristen get when her car breaks down on the way back to her hometown to spend time with her Bff. A town of shifter wolves and more. She would get picked up by the rugged most handsome shifter of the all. Kyle is ten years her junior but all man. Well not all man...He is a wolf shifter but has bear blood as well. Mom Werebear and dads werewolf. Kristen aka is crystals is an actress and now in love with her white knight but all hell breaks loose when her manager shows up. Read to see what happens....did I forget to mention she's human? And Kyle is a wolf...a possessive jealous wolf....
Kristen Hollywood Scarlet was looking for a quiet place for some downtime so she decided to go visit her bff Kelli not expecting for her car to break down. To her surprise her tow truck driver turns out to be this sexy hunk of a man. I love Kyle and Kristen the chemistry between them was extremely hot. They didn't let the age difference between them getting in the way of what they were feeling. Her little R&R trips end up with her finding love. Overall cute read looking forward to read more books in this series.
It was an enjoyable read didn't like the ending felt like it's not finished and many quiets ions unanswered because Kyle was happy liking in Katy with friends and family but then it's as if he movies into the concrete jungle with Kirsten as she states in there story acting is like selling herself faking hanky panky etc is she still doing that or has she finished that career what's Kyle doing now he was settled with his life as a pick up mechanic I no in the next book they live by the sea but ??? Also this author has a thing for k- charectures, Kyle, Kirsten,Krystal and Kelli, lol
I like this author and buy her books as soon as they're available. Kyle, the sexy and young wolf was soon masculine and take charge. I liked the fact that he never apologized to Krystal/Kristen for being younger than she. I have always found men who aren't afraid to take charge incredibly sexy. If you like masculine men who aren't afraid to.take charge then this book is for you. I definitely recommend this book.
Holy HOTNESS! Where can I find me one of these wolves? I absolutely adored this one and fell hard for Kyle right along with Kristen. He's so charming and alpha and just plain sweet. I love how possessive he becomes of Kristen. He's a definite panty melter! Kristen cracked me up. She's very feisty and I love how she didn't let people walk all over her. They made for one hell of a hot couple! I can't wait to read the next book in the series!
Kristen needs a break from the craziness of acting. Hollywood is too much, so she's heading home to small town America. Kyle is a wolf working with his uncle at the garage. Her car breaks down & he goes to give her a tow. They have quite a connection.
I fell in love with this story right from the start. It is fresh, sweet and will make you smile often. Although the action focuses on mostly the two main characters, the story is full of good secondary ones too. The idea finding love when you least expect it isn't a new one, but it is done to perfection in this hot tale!
I have to say that this second book in the Stratton series is every bit as good as the first one was, the fact that their is a 10 year gap between them just proves that you judge how love is going to be shown between even a younger man and older woman nice ending
Nice quick read. Just the right amount of steamy! Plenty of good story and steamy scenes. Excited for the rest of the series! A really good story to go along with all that steam. I am not always into cougar tales but this one was entertaining!
Kris needs a break so she heads see her friend Kellie but car breaks down and a chunky mechanic comes to her aid. He looks after her in many ways and she enjoys her break but her manager ruins it for her. Just read the book see what happens. Great story.
I really enjoyed this HOT short story about Kyle and Kristen. Kyle and Kristen had such a chemistry and I really enjoyed how everything turned out for them. I am looking forward to reading more about the Stratton pack.
