Anna Lowe - A Rose In Bloom (The Wolves Of Twin Moon Ranch, #5.1 - Bonus Epilogue)

This she-wolf needs her mate… now!

Shapeshifter Beth Carter is enjoying her new life as a happily mated wolf, but something’s got her inner beast all riled up. She’s itchy, cranky, and desperate for her mate. Where, oh where, can her wereboar be?

This steamy bonus epilogue takes place two months after the events of Desert Rose, Book 5 in the Wolves of Twin Moon Ranch series.

Kallysten - The Best Present (Ward of the Vampire, #1.1 - Bonus Epilogue)

One year ago, vampire Morgan Ward turned four hundred years old. One year ago, the human Angelina entered his life. For his birthday and the anniversary of their first meeting, she wants to find him the perfect present, but what do you get your centuries-old millionaire boyfriend? Her presence when his family visits will be present enough, he says, which would be fine if his family didn’t scare Angelina witless…

In this bonus scene to the Ward of the Vampire series, we join Angelina and Morgan a few days before his birthday, when their lives have settled down enough that ‘what present should I get him?’ is the most pressing issue at hand…

Anna Craig - Ruled By The Pack (Wicked Wolf Shifters #5.1 - Bonus Scene)

As the fearless, loyal second-in-command of the powerful Wicked Mountain Wolf Shifters, Jackson Rule has prowled through life as a charming bad boy for centuries, and so far it's been one sweet ride. Except for the undeniable temptation by the only woman he can never have: Tamsin, the incredibly captivating but utterly off-limits sister of his pack's alpha. As sister of the alpha, Tamsin Reginald is strong, reliable, and completely driven by the needs of her pack. Her eventual mating is expected to be a smart political alliance. And impossibly sexy Jackson is anything but a smart decision. But Tamsin is on the verge of losing control, heart, body, and soul - because she's about to be Ruled by the pack.

Wolf shifters Tamsin and Jackson have a very forbidden attraction... but it's one they can't deny, as they're about to find out in this scorching scene!

Harmony Raines - Rescued By The Bear (Bear Creek Clan #1.1 - Bonus Scene)

Who wouldn't want to be rescued by a bear?

Brad is on the hunt for his mate. He knows she's in the woods somewhere, his bear can smell her scent on the air. But she eludes him, until he is burning with frustration and lust. However, he won’t ever give up, because she is his for eternity. Join the thrill of the chase… and the satisfaction of the capture.

Brad and Abbi are bonded mates, but that doesn't mean that they don't like a little fun and excitement. With a young child at home, sometimes it's nice to hire a babysitter, and escape into the woods for some bear fun.

V. Vaughn - Andi And Esher; Before (Winter Valley Wolves #6.9 - Bonus Prequel Scene To Esher)

Esher's bedside manner offers Andi more than a cure.

When Andi reveals to Esher she's sick with cancer he comes up with a plan to save her life. By injecting a vial of his blood into her vein Esher hopes to cure her disease. Andi can't refuse the sexy werewolf's help, especially when blood isn't all he offers.

This scene is a bonus prequel to the book Esher of Winter Valley Wolves. The story of Esher is a second chance romance, and I thought it would fun to show how Andi and Esher were as college students the first time around. Read about their young love and how Esher gives her new life, figuratively. Enjoy! Violet

Michelle Fox - Bad Potions (Charmed In Vegas #1) - Excerpt

Sometimes love is a bad potion that won't be denied.

Sometimes love is a bad potion. Marion is a witch on a death list and Aidan is a sexy but cursed elf on the wrong side of the Fairy Queen's favor. Their attraction could be fatal, but it also won't be denied.

In this scene, Marion is on the run with Aidan, looking for safety. Her life is on the line and, unbeknownst to her, time is running out to break Aidan's curse. Once they have a minute to breathe, the sparks really begin to fly... even though Marion's not sure she can trust Aidan. What if he's working for the mage who wants her dead?

Sloane Meyers - Wild Things (Fire Bear Shifters #1.1 - Bonus Epilogue To A Blaze To Bear)

Alpha black bear shifter Ian Reed and his lifemate—the beautiful, fearless Charlotte - are both seasoned smoke-jumpers, so they are thrilled for the chance to participate in an air show and showcase their talents in the skies. Since Ian is used to parachuting into dangerous wildfires, a demonstration jump into clear blue skies is an easy task for him. But what’s not easy is waiting for a chance to sneak away from the crowds and create an adrenaline rush in the bedroom...

In this all new bonus epilogue to A Blaze to Bear, readers get a special glimpse into the sizzling happily ever after of lifemates Ian and Charlotte. As the alpha of his clan, Ian works hard to take care of his bears and their mates. But he also likes to play hard. A getaway to Chicago for an air show gives him just the chance he needs to scale back on his everyday responsibilities, and to have some fun turning up the heat with Charlotte.

Elianne Adams - Call Of The Dragon (Return to Avalore #1.1 - Bonus Scene; Return To Avalore)

For years, Rhia Atkinson has been on the run. The same vicious creatures that killed her mother are on the hunt, and she’s the prey. With the monsters hot on her heels, she doesn’t know how much longer she can keep running. When Drake Sperwell finally finds her, all he has to do is keep Rhia safe, and bring her home. Their people are on the brink of extinction. Their very survival might just depend on her joining her true predestined mate. But can he keep from doing what his dragon demands - claim her for himself?

After having been left sexually frustrated when Drake left for work that morning, Rhia sets about teasing him from the moment he steps out the door. Flooding him with sexual energy and tantalising images all day has left her wanting even more. It seemed like a great idea at the time, until he got home and decided a little punishment was in order.

Rochelle Paige - Giving In To Temptation (Fated Mates #0.9; Black River Pack #1 - Prequel Scene; Crying Wolf)

You can't resist a sexy shifter once he's caught your scent.

Meet the Tate brothers of the Black River Pack... and the mates fate has in store for them. Their grandmother’s vision was specific about the women intended for each brother. The mate who was stalked by danger would be Hunter’s. The mate who walked in dreams would be Spencer’s. And the mate who was discarded by her family would be Parker’s. Too bad for them the path to love isn't as clear-cut.

Spencer Tate and Eliza Reve first met almost two years before the Black River Pack series begins in Crying Wolf. Eliza's ability to dream about future events sets her apart from everyone else. It's a lesson she learned the hard way when her alpha kicked her out of her pack because her vision failed to save his son's life. When she joins the Black River Pack, she doesn't share her secret with anyone - not even the man she knows is her mate. The one man she stays away from because her dreams have also shown he'll break her heart. Secrets and assumptions keep them from realising they're truly fated to be together, but neither of them can resist temptation forever.

Annie Nicholas - Date Night (Angler #3.1 - Bonus Scene; Release)

Live bait makes all the difference.

Connie Bence has retired from being vampire bait to raise her daughter, but the price was exile from the vampire court and her husband, Tane. Now, he's shown up on her doorstep on a secret mission to take her out on a date.

J.M. Klaire - Ivy, David & Ryker (Alpha Hunted #3) - Excerpt

When two wolf-pack enforcers show up right in the middle of some serious family drama, Ivy is almost too busy with her own personal crisis to notice how hot the tattooed bad boys are. With secrets being revealed left and right, her family being hunted, and her own hidden identity a key to the whole thing, the last thing she needs is two lone wolves claiming that she, and only she, can complete their triad and become their mate. Not sure she even believes in fated mates, and needing to keep her family together and get to the bottom of a mystery three generations in the making, she tells the men no. And no isn't a word they are used to hearing.

In this scene, Ivy, David, and Ryker give in to temptation, testing Ivy's beliefs and sparking a fire that just might change all of their lives forever.

J.C. Andrijeski - Fireplace (Allie's War, #?.1) - Sexy Fragment

A hot, inside look at Revik and Allie's first bonding session at the cabin.

Allie and Revik waited a long time to consummate their Seer bond - too long, maybe. By the time they finally do, things between them get totally out of control - so much so that Allie has all she can do to keep Revik from losing his head totally.

A brand new, bonus scene from the Allie’s War series that gives a behind the curtain look at Allie and Revik at the beginnings of their epic relationship.

In this scene, Allie and Revik have spent over a year fighting to be together after they first initiated their seer bond back in Seattle. Back then, Allie had just found out she was Seer and not human, and had no idea what being Seer even meant. She also hardly knew Revik, although the attraction between them was already incredibly strong. Now, a year later, after they’ve been through hell and back, both together and separately, Revik finally manages to get her alone - with explosive results!

Amber Ella Monroe AKA Ambrielle Kirk - Wolf's Temptation (Caedmon Wolves #7.1 - Bonus Epilogue)

Dawson, a domineering alpha wolf, is tempted by an empathic witch.

In Wolf’s Temptation, Dawson Caedmon gets more than he bargains for when he agrees to help Alessia - a witch in peril - uncover a mystery surrounding her heritage. Their findings reek of danger, but Dawson will do anything in his power to keep Alessia from harm. Unsure whether or not she’s his mate, but unable to resist her allure, Dawson throws caution to the wind. Unfortunately, his temptation may cost him his life. His and Alessia’s safety isn’t the only thing at risk either. The peace within the Pack is in peril, as well. Is learning the truth worth the risks?

In this bonus scene, Alessia and Dawson will complete the mate bond to consummate their union.

Ivy Sinclair - Binds That Burn (Urban Dwellers #3.1 - Bonus Scene)

What does someone do when the worst secret of his past collides with his present? Eric Carmichael is about to find out. On the eve of his company’s IPO, Eric awakens in a pool of blood that isn’t his. With no memory of what transpired, he hires the only person he thinks can help him - his ex, private investigator Nina Rodriguez. Nina barely escaped her brief relationship with Eric with her heart intact. She has no intention of repeating her past mistakes, but with Eric’s future hanging in the balance, she can’t say no. As tensions rise between the police and the shifters of Copper City, Eric and Nina find the answer lies in solving a mystery from Eric’s past.

In this scene, Eric wants to recreate his first date with Nina in an attempt to get close to her again. Nina isn't interested in mixing business with pleasure again, especially with Eric Carmichael. She tries to distract him by focusing on the details of his case. Eric won't take no for an answer, and Nina finds that Eric has only grown more persuasive since their last encounter.

Michele Bardsley - Your Lycan or Mine? (Broken Heart #14.1 - Bonus Scene)

In Your Lycan or Mine? Ash the Destroyer, the world’s only soul shifter, must use her cunning and her gift to keep Lilith from escaping her hellbound prison. With the help of gorgeous therianthrope Jarod Dante, she might just stand a chance at defeating evil. And if they survive, Ash and Jarod might find once-in-a-lifetime love.

In this bonus scene, the hero and heroine from Your Lycan or Mine? indulge in a passionate encounter that changes them both.

About the author

Anna Lowe

121 books499 followers
USA Today and Amazon best-selling author Anna Lowe loves putting the "hero" back into heroine and letting location ignite a passionate romance. She likes a heroine who is independent, intelligent, and imperfect — a woman who's doing just fine on her own. But give the heroine a good man (not to mention a chance to overcome her own inhibitions) and she'll never turn down the chance for adventure, nor shy away from danger.

On any given weekend, you might find her hiking in the mountains or hunched over her laptop, working on her latest story. Either way, the day will end with a chunk of dark chocolate and a good read.

This is multitude of new tidbits from different books , written by many excellent Authors. I have not had the opportunity yet to have read all these books. However, Kallysten's the Ward was a wonderful series of books. And the tidbit she wrote for this collection, is a superb look ahead. It was great to be able to read more into how the lives of Morgan, and Angelina ended up. Although, I could never get enough I want more, and more. It was a wonderful journey with them in the series, and such a treat to get a peek into their after life. I think this is definitely worth reading. As are all her books.

A Rose in Bloom (Wolves of Twin Moon Ranch #5.1) by Anna Lowe

I love Axel and Beth (psst...her name is awesome LOL) and am happy to get a peek into their lives two months after their mating.

Axel is loving everything about his new life...his job, his pack, and especially, his mate. She's his world. *swoon...right, ladies?* Today though, his boar is harder to contain as it seems he knows something before Axel does. But what could it be?

Beth, content in a way she never thought possible, loves her new mate, their new life together, and yet for some reason her wolf is restless today. What is she trying to tell Beth?

It seems as if destiny has another surprise in store for them, something their respective animals recognized before they did. But once Axel and Beth caught up, they were fully on board with starting this next journey, together, just as they'd always be.

What is going on with my favorite couple? I can tell you it's something that they'll have fun vigorously striving for *eye waggle* and that the end result will be a joyous celebration.

One-click this novella now and find out what this sweet couple is up to. I do recommend reading this series in order for the sake of continuity and for full enjoyment of the characters. The beginning of Axel and Beth's HEA can be found in book five of the series, Desert Rose. No go forth and happily click on this wonderful series.

Epilogue to Wolf's Temptation by Ambrielle Kirk.

(I received an ARC copy of this epilogue in exchange for my honest review.)

What an excellent way to wrap up Wolf's Temptation! As you quite possibly noticed, they never actually completed the mating in the book. This epilogue gives us the chance to see that. The story is filled with the love Dawson and Alessia share for each other. The scene is hot and steamy in all of the right ways. The bond between the two is undeniable and it is the perfect ending to Wolf's Temptation to see Dawson and Alessia officially seal their mating. To enjoy this even more, I would highly recommend reading Wolf's Temptation first. This scene is absolutely a HEA ending providing extra closure to Wolf's Temptation (no cliffhanger). I hope you enjoy both this epilogue and Wolf's Temptation as much as I did! I give this scene 5 stars.

I received an ARC of 'A Rose in Bloom' from Anna Lowe, in exchange for an honest review.

A Rose in Bloom (The Wolves of Twin Moon Ranch, bk 5.5) by Anna Lowe... I ABSOLUTELY LOVED this little snippet of Beth & Axel after the journey they'd been on in 'Desert Rose' (book 5)... this was a very sweet & steamy scene. I would definitely advise you to read the rest of the series prior to this.... but it's not needed. I can't wait to read what Anna has in store next for the series.

Andi & Esher (Winter Valley Wolves, prequel to Esher) by V. Vaughn.... I freaking loved reading about Esher & Andi in college, how the events started before the time 'Esher' was written. I don't want to give anything away, I definitely advise you read the rest of the series or atleast 'Esher' once you've read this.

This is a review of Anna Lowe’s A Rose In Bloom. I received a copy in exchange for an honest review. After Book 5, you can’t help but be attached to Beth and Axel. This short story is the continuation of their love story. It’s a short read and I don’t want to give too much away, but all I can say is that as a plain, big, nerdy girl, you can’t help but to cheer for Beth and her really hot guy! As always, you have to love her inner wolf. She’s so bitchy and feisty all at the same time. She’s probably my favorite of the women we’ve met at the Twin Moon Ranch! I’m looking forward to more of their story and whomever finds love next on the ranch!

I received this book, More Wicked Alphas, Wild Nights in exchange for an honest review. Overall each excerpt tantalizes you enough to want to read each individual book. It makes you want to know the background from which each excerpt was written and the need to read on to wrap up the conclusions.

Rose in Bloom
I recommend everyone to read Anna Lowe’s Rose in Bloom. I enjoyed this excerpt with how well written her characters are with their intense passion which burns hot, runs wild and a love deeply ingrained for their true life mate. This book is a must read for myself.

The Best Present
The Best Present by Kallysten is an excerpt skillfully written with a side of hot and steamy sex. I relished reading about a love so driven, it’s beyond temptation. No one can illuminate about wild, burning passion between two lovers, but maybe for those who truly belong together. I aspire to finish the book entirely.

Ruled by the Pack
Anna Craig is a talented writer, who shows us, the least suited people can still be drawn together. I’m possitive after reading this excerpt you will want to read the entire book, Ruled by the Pack. One man’s determination to fight for the woman he’s not allowed to have. However, he can’t ignore the hot, burning passion and the love he has for her, is true mate.

Rescued by the Bear
This excerpt is beautifully written by Harmony Raines. Rescued by the Bear brought forth the raging passion and tantalizing love between a couple. I enjoyed reading this excerpt which shows an emotion so powerful between two people, I need to read the entire book.

Andi and Esher
V. Vaughn's, Andi and Esher is a powerful book of young love and determination of a man trying to save the only woman he'll ever love. I admire V. Vaughn’s imagination as she takes me through an unexpected story of apprehension, passion and love. My purchasing this book will be to find out what happens to Andi and Esher.

Bad Potions
Michelle Fox’s Bad Potions is truly a gem. I love your characters, their fascinating, funny and loveable. The passion flaring between Marion and Aidan is combustible. I desire to purchase this book, is to discover how and why the Queen Fairy will discipline Aidan and the situation between Marion and Eric ends.

Wild Things
What a smoking hot excerpt written by Sloane Meyers. In Wild Things, I admire the courage and expertise in which Sloane describes her characters and their feelings with so much enthusiasm you will feel those same emotions. The sizzling desire and love between life mates is unmistakable. This entire adventure between Ian and Charlotte will be exciting to revel its ending.

Call of the Dragon
I love this book; Call of the Dragon, by Elianna Adams sequentially it’s about a fiery passion between mated dragons. I loved that Elianna didn’t hold back any aspect of the couples craving of one another. The sex scenes are sensual but you could tell their love was also present. This excerpt is hot and steamy and I can’t wait to read the entire book, it’s that tantalizing.

Giving in to Temptation
Rochelle Paige is a gifted author who’s writing is riveting. I love how her characters jump out at me as amusing and well developed. Rochelle found a way to bring Spencer and Eliza together in a sexy and scorching moment of passion. I will follow along to bring this exhilarating adventure to its end.

Date Night
This excerpt from Date Night by Annie Nicholas, is a thrilling paranormal journey of her characters whose lives have taken a new direction, but they miss the closeness they once had. Date Night was their way to getting back those sensual burning feelings brought on by lust and a deep connection of love. I’m anxious to read Bait to find out what happens between these lovers.

Alpha Hunted 3: Ivy, David and Ryker
J.M. Klaire’s, Alpha Hunted 3: Ivy, David and Ryker, is going to be an interesting read with enough appeal to whet the appetite. This except is from the Alpha Hunted series.

Fireplace
Fireplace by JC Andrijeski is a bonus scene from Allie’s War series. I loved the passionate feelings between Allie, a seer raised in the human world and Revik, a seer all his life. This excerpt is hot and lustful and can barely contain the feelings these two bring out in each other.

Wolf’s Temptation
I love this bonus scene by Amber Ella Monroe is stimulating and exciting. The pull of lust between a Witch, Alex and her wolf lover Dawson the heat and passion is so potent they are willing to fight to keep each other against all odds. This bonus scene was tantalizing that I have to find out how it ends.

Binds the Burn
Ivy Sinclair Binds that Burn is an exciting bonus scene which I found enthralling with a curse and a cure along with a hot and fiery passion that lights up a page. The descriptions of her characters are rich with intense personalities. I’m compelled to continue reading about their journey to its end.

Your Lycan or Mine?
Your Lycan or Mine? is a bonus scene which has a wild and fiery passion between Ash and Jarod, that it won’t be denied. Michele Bardsley has written just enough of a teaser to make me want to finish the book in it’s entirely.

I really enjoy this idea of putting together some highly sensual scenes from various paranormal series. It is a great introduction to characters from series new to meas well as getting to visit with some of my favorites.

There are stories about all kinds of paranormals including: shifters, witches, elves and vampires. There are new mates, those who have been together for years, and those still trying to get their relationship established or re-established. There are also some menage stories. .

I enjoyed all the stories and will comment briefly on most below:

Anna Lowe: A Rose in Bloom.is the first story included. I love her books and am always glad to spend more time with the characters. This one features mates who find they are ready to start their family. Their animals know it is time and it is a real distraction from work. It will change how you look at librarians. A short, sweet and sexy story.

V. Vaughn: Andi and Esher - Before is a great story for those who have read the story and would like to know more about their time together in college before it went all wrong and they were kept apart for many lonely years. It makes you sad that so much time was lost as they were so in love.

Harmony Raines: Rescued by the Bear is about a couple having a date night together in the woods. They have a young child and don't often get time alone and make the best of their date.

Michelle Fox: Bad Potions adds a witch and a elf to the mix of paranormal characters featured in the book. Their relationship should not be but it won't be stopped. These are new characters to me and there is a lot more to learn about them.

JC Andrijeski: Fireplace introduces you to the world of Seers. These newly married Seers are still learning about what sexual activities are mutually desired. I am eager to read more about the characters who are new to me.

Anna Craig: Ruled by the Pack is about two shifters who should not be together but can't resist the temptation any longer. I have read some of the other books and really enjoyed seeing her get what she wants and needs. I hope to read more about them.

Elianne Adams: Call of the Dragon is another story of mates who are always thinking of one another and eagerly awaiting their next time together. They tease each other with images designed to enflame.

Rochelle Paige: Giving in to Temptation is about how secrets meant to protect can cause great harm. Fated mates are attracted but forced to keep some distance in the hopes of protecting themselves and each other. I have read some of the other stories featuring the characters and really enjoyed them.

Annie Nicholas: Angler Date Night.is a menage story about a women and her two husbands - one a human and one a vampire. They have had to have limited contact to protect their lives and they get an opportunity for a long awaited date. There are M/M and M/F/M scenes. The characters are new to me It makes me very interested to read more about the characters.

J.M. Klaire: Alpha Hunted 3 is another menage story about two men who recognize their mate and are waiting for her to realize it too. I have not read any of the other books but it definitely got me interested.

Amber Ella Munroe: Wolf's Temptation is about the witch and wolf who should not be together but have ignored those rules. He loves to host events and there is a mate run which makes them think about officially acknowledging their mating.

Kallysten: The Best Present gives you a vampire fix. His birthday is coming up and she doesn't know what to give someone who has everything. Sometimes it really is the thought that counts.

Ivy Sinclair: Binds that Burn is about a were-panther in trouble that wants to tempt his ex to help him and come back to him as well. She finds his body hard to resist but doesn't want to risk her heart again. I was not familiar with the story and will be checking out more about the characters.

These add ons to your favorite books are a must read. They will shed light onto your books as they did two of mine. I love it when a plan comes together. Don't miss out on this once and a life time opportunity to see what happens after the fact!!!! Harmony Raines and Sloane Meyers are the only two authors that I had read their books. These add ons really made me happy for my heroes and heroines.

So they get Hal a bear shifter and Fiona a wolf shifter, to baby sit the cub for them. Abbi makes plans for Brad to track her to where they are meeting for the surprise she has for him. Oh the shock when he finally finds her and what she has in store for him. Loved to addition to the book. Of course I always love when the happy couples have their cubs.

Wild Things by Sloane Meyers: A bonus epilogue to A Blaze to Bear: Ian Reed the Alpha Black Bear shifter and his life mate Charlotte are both smokejumpers and very good at what they do.

This is a really great collection of scenes from various novels and novellas, all super steamy and sexy. When I first started reading the scenes I wrote a little review for each of them, like I always like to do in boxed sets, but I realized that for a lot of them I was saying the same thing “super hot, loved the intro to the characters, and now I’ll have to pick up the novel.” Not that this is a surprise, because I am sure that was the point of these little teasers, but rather than say some variation of that over and over again, I will just say I truly enjoyed the set as a whole and I will definitely be looking for the full books and series’ for many of these wonderful excerpts. It is a very cheap way to dip your toes into the various worlds and decide if you want to jump in for a swim.

1- A Rose in Bloom – Anna Lowe – 5 stars
Axel and Beth, sweet and also very hot sex in the stacks. I love the little push destiny is giving them toward their future, it’s a great read that not only makes me want to read more, it made me blush the last time I entered the library. I’ll never be able to check books out without my mind wondering, lol.

2- The Best Present – Kallysten – 4 stars
Morgan and Angelina, what to get a 400 year old millionaire vampire? Why sex of course. It’s a nice little side story that kind of makes you wish you had read the previous story so you could understand the dynamic with Irene.

3- Ruled by the Pack – Anna Craig – 5 stars
Tamsin and Jackson, super hot, can’t wait to see where their newfound attraction takes them.

4- Rescued by the Bear – Harmony Raines – 4.5 stars
Brad and Abbi are a mated pair who finally get a time away from their little cub to have a romantic and sweet little night to themselves. This was a cute little scene, very short but sweet.

5- Andi and Esher –Before – V. Vaughn – 5 stars
This is a sad but sweet little scene that shows how in love Andi and Esher are and has me wondering what the heck happens that they need a second chance? Guess I’ll have to read the Wakefields bundle to find out.

6- Bad Potions – Michelle Fox – 5 stars
7- Wild Things – Sloane Meyers – 4 stars
8- Call of the Dragon – Elianne Adams – 5 stars
9- Giving in to Temptation – Rochelle Paige – 5 Stars
10- Date Night – Annie Nicholas – 5 stars
11- Alpha Hunted 3: Ivy, David, Ryker – J.M. Klaire – 5 stars
12- Fireplace – JC Andrijeski – 4 stars
13- Wolf’s Temptation – Amber Ella Monroe – 5 stars
I absolutely loved Wolf's Temptation, and I felt that the only thing that could have made it better was a to get to see Alessia and Dawson's mating. So, while this was a short little epilogue, it was the icing on the cake for Wolf's Temptation. I cannot wait to see whats next for the Caedmon Wolves.

Dawson will not let her aunt hurt her if he can help it nor will she let him be hurt. She and Dawson spend sometime at the mansion. Dawson and Alessia show their love to each other everywhere they go and everyone sees it in the way they look and touch each other Dawson is giving another party and this time it is mating run but Dawson only wants to show off his beautiful witch mate to all his family and friends to give her everything that she could possibly want for now and forever. This was one of the really hot books of this collection. Also short story from the Bad Potions which is part of the Charm in Vegas series by Michelle Fox as is quiet interesting in this paranormal collection. As well as other stories. I received a copy for an honest review.

This review is for Wolf's Temptaton by Ambrielle Kirk & Amber Ella Monroe.

Wolf's Temptation is the seventh book in Caedmon Wolves series. It's Dawson's story. He is the younger half-brother of the pack alpha, Devin. It is a stand-alone book that connects with other books in the series through some shared characters and has an HEA with no cliffhangers. This is the first book that I have read by Ambrielle Kirk & Amber Ella Monroe and I didn't know what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised. I enjoyed reading this book and look forward to reading more from this author in the future. I've already bought the box set containing books one through six and can't wait to get started on reading them. It's not necessary to read the other six books in this series first or even at all but I would definitely recommend doing that. I would also recommend this book to fans of paranormal series, especially ones interested in werewolf and witch romances.

Synopsis:

Dawson Caedman is a werewolf who works as a lawyer. He's known for being a playboy who throws a lot of wild parties. This is where he meets Alessia. He thinks she might be his mate but isn't sure. He is sure that she's a witch. Unfortunately his pack has a deadly past with witches and he's not allowed to mate with one. He'll do everything he can to protect her anyways.

Alessia is a beautiful artist who has no idea that she's a witch. She's about to figure that out since her powers are beginning to manifest and she's having trouble controlling them. She meets Dawson at one of his parties and he calls her out for what she is. This makes her run out of the party but he tracks her down later. All of this is connected to their secret history and the mystery of who murdered her mother.

This version also includes an exclusive additional epilogue to Wolf's Temptation. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this extra chapter and recommend it to anyone who has read the book. It completes the story between our two protagonists.

Review for Desert Rose by Anna Lowe--Axel Waldermann a Javelina shifter has been recuperating at Twin Moon Ranch. The wounds inflicted from a hellhound took longer to heal for a shifter. He knew his days at the wolf shifters ranch were coming to an end but he liked it there and for a shifter that kept roaming it was almost a relief to stay in one place. Beth has returned to the ranch. Spending a few weeks away still hasn't made her forget the stranger that was recovering. Whom her wolf insists is their mate. Beth is shy and really couldn't believe what her wolf was telling her. Axel thought the voice he heard while unconscious was that of an angel keeping him tied to life. When he hears Beth's voice he realizes she was the one he heard.

This is the 5th book in Twin Moon Ranch series. Best read in order. But can be read as a standalone. I loved Beth and her wolf was quite snarky. Had me laughing quite often. Beth was shy and kind of quiet at times until it came to her mate. She found herself standing up for herself and Axel. Axel found himself falling for Beth but didn't know what he had to offer her. Being a Javelina and nothing like the wolves he didn't think he had a chance. Love will find a way. This was one of my favorites in the series. I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

"A Rose in Bloom" by Anna Lowe


Axel Waldermann is the happiest his ever been, he has a beautiful mate and a job he loves. Until he has a vision and everything changes, and now he has a future he never dreamed of. His wereboar is pushing to get to its mate but he can't loose control, so he drops everything and goes looking for Beth.

Shapeshifter Beth Carter has been enjoying her new life as a happily mated wolf. Axel is more than she ever expected to have, his perfect for her in every way. But she has been feeling a little out of sorts and her wolf is all riled up. She's been itchy, cranky and desperate for her mate, and she is not sure why. Until her mate comes looking for and shares his vision.

With the vision giving them a future they never expected and with the way she's been feeling, she isn't about to turn him away.



This was a really, really sweet short read. It was nice to catch up with Axel and Beth. They are two of my favourite people in this series, as was their story. It was so nice to catch up with them and share in their good news in this lighthearted read. I look forward to reading about the outcome of their vision, hopefully soon!

Wide ranging selection of sensual, passion filled and romantic scenes from your favourite authors. Some of the series I have read and some I haven't. Sure there are some which don't float my particular boat but 90% of them are sure fire hits! Great characters and fabulous settings!

A ROSE IN BLOOM by Anna Lowe; A kind of epilogue from Desert Rose with Axel and Beth being ruled by their mating heat!!!

THE BEST PRESENT-Epilogue from the Ward of the Vampire Series by Kallysten. Can Angelina brave the vampiric mother in law from hell to give Morgan the birthday present he wants?

RULED BY THE PACK by Anna Craig. Will Tasmin, the Alpha’s sister, and her bedbuddy Jackson make more of their relationship than snatched moments of passion?

RESCUED BY THE BEAR by Harmony Raines. Brad and Abbi are in serious need of a date night. The bear shifter Sheriff even leaves his phone on silent!

ANDI AND ESHER BEFORE- by V. Vaughn; A glimpse at Andi and Esher when he first finds out about her illness.

Something for everything in this set. Bears, wolves, magic wielders, Big Cat shifters. All are well written, craftily plotted with alpha heroes to make your toes...and other parts...tingle!!!

What a collection of sexy, sweet, and tempting nuggets to entice us to read more. A great opportunity to meet and fall for some book people. Here are a couple of samples to tempt you.

Andi and Esher-Before:V Vaughn
What great timing to read this short, sweet, hot nugget. If you have read Esher and Andi's story, this will make your heart melt at their beginning. If you have not read or listened to the audi, this will make you want to. Andi is living a death sentence, but with Esher's love and help there is hope. I hope you read this and it gets you to read the full story. You will love it.

Bad Potions; Michelle Fox
Marion and Aiden, running from an evil ex seem to need a break. Even though Marion is not yet sure of Aiden, the beginner witch tests to make sure he is not the ex. Still her experience with sex has been no pleasure—until Aiden can prove her wrong—and it is oh so right. This short excerpt is spicy, sweet and makes me sure I'm going to read the entire book when it comes out. A great book teaser.

was lucky to read "rose in bloom" by anna lowe.

loved revisiting these two because their original story was so touching and emotional. see how they're doing now is just a bonus, a cherry on top of a big fat unhealthy but ooh so delicious cake!
these two are simply sizzling when his boar senses that his desert rose is ready for their unit to expand. he trails her back to the library, glad she's there alone. his "rose" doesn't disappoint, she rather surprises him, in a very goooood way. how good? pick up a copy and find out!

drake and rhia by elianne adams was another scene i was able to read. (call of the dragon)

why are dragons so hot? and big teases? well these two are and are making good use of their mental connection to drive each other mad with lust. so mad and horny they just have to find a way to cope until they have a lot more time to sate their desire.

Beth Carter (pack Liberian and ass. teacher aid) is a happy newly mated wolf to a wereboar Axel ( apprentice blacksmith) but for some reason she is having weird feelings that she don't understand. At work Axel is counting the minutes to lunch but also thinking back to how lucky he has been to get a chance at this new life he loves so much, he feels a growing urgency to see Beth but he don't know why. This is a short but enjoyable read, just letting you into a little more of Beth and Axel's story. ENJOY.

ANNA LOWE'S A ROSE IN BLOOM
This review is for Anna Lowe's story A Rose In Bloom. I love this whole series, but I think this may be one of my favorites. Axel, a javalina shifter, who was hurt when he fought the hell hound in book 4, was left to heal at the Twin Moon Ranch. While he was unconscious, Beth, a sexy she-wolf librarian, read to him everyday. He becomes quite taken with Beth and she feels the same about him, but she is insecure about herself and thinks he'd be better off with someone else. You'll have to read the book to see if they get together. I enjoyed this book so much and highly recommend this complete series. I always look forward to the next book. I received this book as a gift for an honest review. I will review more of this boxed set as I read. Patsy Sacco

This review is for Anna Lowe's “A Rose in
Bloom”. I received a copy for honest
review. This is the first book I've read in this box set and as always Anna Lowe always comes through. We get an update on Axel and Rose whose javelina and wolf are going crazy because they know something the human side doesn't. But it doesn't take them long to figure it out and to take care of the issue.

Bad Potions by Michelle Fox is another great story in this boxed set that I received for an honest review. Aidan and Marion, A Fae and a Witch are hiding from Marion's ex. As Marion's doubts rise about who Aidan really is, things heat up and heat up fast as she maneuvers herself in a position to find out for sure. Great Read!!

Wicked and Wild is right, that is just what these bonus scenes are! I am going to buy every single one that I haven't read, that's how good I know they are. Get yours and decide which you will love, it's a great way to go for the right ones. These are all fantastic authors come together to give you a piece of the best of their books.

For example I can't wait to read Michelle Fox's "Bad Potions" has got to be awesome, that witch is in for a lot more than she imagined.

Anna Lowe's "A Rose in Bloom" OMG I never read about a boar shifter before and I can't wait, the passion is over the top!

Michelle Bardsley's "Your Lycan or Mine"?

I could go on and on, they were all great, you'll just have to read for yourself.
