She always did have a sassy mouth...just his type...
Alice Grey thought life was easier when she was still a thief. As a flying squirrel shifter, it had always been as easy as gliding through some rich guy's open window and sailing away before the hounds could get a sniff of her. That was ten years ago, and she's still trying to escape her past, and the memories of the man who told her to run...
Alice is reformed now. She doesn't live that life anymore. She hadn't wanted it to begin with. Forced into it to pay her father's debts to some very bad people, she still can't live peacefully because the dog shifters, one in particular, don't know when to quit. They catch up with her in Woodland Creek, hoping to clamp their teeth down on her neck and shake her until she's dead like a real squirrel.
Jake Redfield, former undercover cop, fell in love with Alice when he met her on the job. He'd been trying to bring down her bosses at the time, and for the most part, he succeeded, but one man is out of prison, and he wants revenge as much as Jake wants to see her again. Wants to touch her and kiss her. Keep her safe.
As a diamondback rattlesnake shifter, his venom can be deadly, and anyone who tries to hurt his Alice is just begging to be bitten...

Alice is a shifter that was a thief. Ten years ago, Jake was an undercover cop who fell in love with her and saved her life. It's been a long ten year, but she still isn't totally safe and Jake is still trying to keep her safe. Is what these two have just what was in the past, or is it something more. I really enjoyed this book, and how their relationship built up slowly. Even though they had a history, there was no rush to get right back to it.
A flying squirrel thief Mets a retired sheriff rattlesnake shifter. This soumded like the makings for an unbelievable funny book. While this was a cute short story I was hoping for so much more.
I can't put my finger on it but this book just didn't get me interested or excited. I kept putting it down then coming back to it. The story line was okay and the characters were likeable but I found the way it was written was awkward and not a smooth read. I have to admit to skimming over a few pages just to get to the end. I love a good shifter story but this did not work for me.
Bite Me is the story of Alice, a flying squirrel shifter, and Jake, a diamondback rattler shifter. Bite Me is a blend of PNR, romance, comedy, mafia, suspense, betrayal and justice. I really enjoyed the way those elements combined to create a truly enjoyable story. It was entirely different from everything I've read lately which was a very pleasant surprise.
I highly recommend Bite Me. Mandy Rosko is a new-to-me author. I intend to read more of her books and definitely suggest you give her a try.
