In the Roar: Book Nine
My Rating: FIVE DELICIOUSLY CUTE STARS*****
Wow! Another homerun from Milly Taiden!

Taiden once again demonstrates her exceptional talent and incredible skill by delivering another deliciously cute and delightfully entertaining paranormal tale filled to the brim with fun, humor, adventure, danger, drama and sweet romance.

It always amazes me just how much hot, sexy, ooey-gooey goodness Milly can pack into one of her books. This story is not rocket science, folks, but it does involve travel to another planet and will keep you entertained and glued to your seat for several hours. Once you start a Milly Taiden book, you can forget about putting it down until you reach the last page. Milly's stories are always cute, fast-paced, easy to follow, imaginative, original and humorous. The narrative is exceptionally well written in the third person with alternating his and her points of view. The dialogue is smart, sassy, well executed and flows effortlessly. The entire book is well crafted, well developed and incredibly well edited. I think I found two little minor typos in the entire 188 pages. It's always such a pleasure to read a Milly Taiden novel. But it's the characters that are always my favorite part of her books. They are captivating, engaging, endearing, funny and sexy as sin. The chemistry between our hero and heroine is dynamic, intense, hot and passionate. In other words, sparks fly and passions blaze! Although I would consider this book to be a standalone read, you will see quite a few of the same characters who pop in and out of Milly's books and of course, Gerri Wilder, owner of the Paranormal Dating Agency, is always there to arrange the matches and work her magic. So, buckle up my lovelies! It's another wild ride on Planet Aurora!
At age 36, big, bold and beautiful Alivia Vela, Liv to her friends, is fed up with online dating sites and her sister's attempts to play matchmaker. Her internal clock is ticking and she wants a baby. And she's ready to do whatever it takes to have one - even if it means being artificially inseminated. It's not that she doesn't want a husband, but after several failed relationships, she just wants a man to accept her the way she is - curves, rolls and all! She just never expected to meet someone like Gerri Wilder and she certainly never dreamed she would ever travel to another planet with a hot, handsome man she's known for less than a day. Fortunately, Liv decides to listen to her heart rather than her head just this once, and take a chance on love, and on the hot guy she met last night who wants her to accompany him back to his home which is very far away. Yup, I'd consider another galaxy to be quite far away! She just never believed it would be on another planet! Oh my - talk about a wild ride!
Karel Yahgar, jaguar shifter and head of security for King Alyx of Aurora, is definitely in a pickle! He desperately wants to present his mate to his beloved mother before she dies, but regrettably, he doesn't have one - at least not yet. He has to find a mate and quickly so what's an alien shifter to do??? Why call Gerri Wilder, of course. She has successfully worked her magic for quite a few others on his planet but sadly, she's just left and returned to Earth. Well, there's only one thing to do - if Muhammed can't go to the mountain, then the mountain will just have to travel to Muhammed. He'll make a trip to Gerri Wilder on Earth where hopefully, she'll be able to help him find his mate. And if he plays his cards right, maybe, just maybe, he can convince her to return with him To Aurora. Who knows? Seeing him mated may just be enough to save his mother's life. It's not only a surprise, but also a welcome relief when he finds her immediately after arriving but Gerri explains that earth woman don't understand or easily accept the concept of love at first sight or true mates, so he'll have to slowly introduce his customs to the lovely, curvaceous Liv Vela. And of course, explain to her the little matter of being a shifter and an alien from another planet! Oh my! Sadly, time is the one thing he doesn't have and apparently, he has no patience either. She is his and it's as simple as that! What's an eager jaguar shifter to do??? Why completely ignore Gerri Wilder's advice and seek out his mate, of course! And it's a good thing he does because he ends up rescuing her from a devious, unscrupulous male and a horrible blind date gone very wrong. Thankfully, she doesn't mind being saved and is ready to save him right back, even if it is a little hard for her to accept teleportation, mood changing walls, pink oceans and purple trees! But will her instant attraction and puzzling new feeling for Karel be enough to convince her of his love??? We'll see! No spoilers from me but I will say this....Big, bold and beautiful heroine who just wants a man to love and accept her the way she is and also a few babies would also be very nice-check! Handsome, sexy, growly, alpha, alien, male jaguar shifter who is in desperate need of a mate and cubs-check! A smart, perceptive, shifter matchmaker-check! A cast of wonderful characters-check!

Scrooge Me Hard: Book 9.5
My Rating: FIVE JINGLE HOT STARS*****
I love, love, love Christmas and I absolutely adore Milly Taiden books so what could ever be better than either of those two things?!? Why, a Christmas novella written by Milly Taiden, of course! And that's exactly what the super talented Milly has delivered - a wonderful Christmas story as part of her Paranormal Dating Agency Series and loosely based on the age-old classic, A Christmas Carol. Yep, that's right....a modern recreation of Scrooge and she totally rocked it! The story is cute, sweet, humorous, heartwarming and romantic. And you better bring out the tissues for this one because you'll certainly need them for both the sad and joyful tears. The narrative is exceptionally well written and well edited, as always, in the third person with alternating his and her points of view. The dialogue is smart, witty, sassy, well executed and flows effortlessly. And for my favorite part of Milly's stories - the characters. They are always well developed, engaging, endearing, sparkling and at times, laugh out loud funny. Taiden skillfully combines these elements into a wonderful paranormal story filled to the brim with humor and romance and is sure to tug on your heartstrings but leave you grinning from ear to ear.
Beautiful bakery store owner Aurelis Fuentes has always loved Christmas and dreamed of having lots of children to share it with. It's just too bad really that the wolf she fell in love with turned out to be a great big Scrooge who didn't want children and hated Christmas. When he shows up after a five year separation proclaiming his undying love, it's only natural that Auri doubts his sincerity and his motives. So, what's a curvy girl to do? Why leave it up to Gerri Wilder and friends, of course!
Wolf Shifter Reed Stone has lived a life of regret for the past five years. He found his mate and let her walk away but in his defense, at the time, he thought he knew what he wanted and especially what he didn't want - no kids and Christmas was bah humbug! He realizes now just how wrong he was and wants his mate back. But has he waited too long to convince her that he has changed? We'll see! A wonderfully uplifting and emotionally moving Christmas story that will most certainly give you a case of the warm and fuzzies. I loved it!

My Rating: FIVE DELICIOUSLY CUTE STARS*****
WOW! Another wonderful story from Milly Taiden! Bearfoot and Pregnant is the tenth and most recent tasty treat in the Paranormal Dating Agency Series by best-selling author Milly Taiden and it's totally bear-licious! I've been a Milly Taiden fan for several years and never tire of reading her fun-filled, laugh-out-loud stories. After reading the first story in her PDA Series, Taiden quickly became one of my favorite go-to authors and now when I'm down or in need of a good laugh, I always choose one of her books to read. And she never disappoints! Taiden's books are always well crafted, imaginative and filled to the brim with wonderful characters, lots of drama and angst, an abundance of humor and of course, let's not forget the dreamy romance and steamy sex! The narrative was exceptionally well written in the third person with alternating his and her points of view - my favorite! What didn't I like about this book? Not a darn thing!
Beautiful, curvaceous Cassandra Grimaldi may be having a difficult time trying to find the right man but at least she has a great new job. It seems that's the only good thing that has happened to her recently, well since her ex-boyfriend who was also her ex-boss, not only broke her heart but also stole all her money! Oh no! But she's loving being Gerri Wilder's new assistant. Or she was until Gerri started talking about taking a trip to another planet to attend a celebration hosted by her former client who just happens to be a alien shifter and a King. Wait? What? It may be time to start looking for another job because Gerri may have lost her mind! Shifters? Yeah, she can accept the fact that shifters exist but alien shifters on another planet??? Nope, not possible! But after Gerri promises her mind-blowing sex and multiple orgasms, Cassie decides to bite the bullet and take a leap of faith - through a portal to the planet Aurora! Oh my! And Cassie is so glad she did especially after meeting hot bear shifter Talen Arctos, clan leader of the Arctos Bear Clan on Aurora!
Talen Arctos has serious reservations about leaving his clan to attend the celebration for the introduction of King Alyx's new twins but as the new clan leader, the duty falls to him. He doesn't have time to socialize but he reluctantly agrees. He's almost 40 and has been having problems controlling his bear who wants a mate but Talen knows he doesn't have time for a mate, not with all his responsibilities but that was before he saw the beautiful Cassie at the palace. His bear instantly recognizes his mate and intends to claim her - immediately. The only problem - Talen forgot to tell his mate that he had claimed her! Oh no! Oh yes! So when Talen had to leave suddenly the next morning, he neglected to explain everything to his new mate. Yep, big mistake! So what's a girl to do when her hunky bear shifter immediately disappears after a night of mind-blowing sex without an explanation? Leave and go back to Earth, of course! But little did Cassie realize that she had an additional passenger! Oops! It seems birth control pills are not a reliable method of contraception with shifters. Oh my! And factor in Talen's demented brother who is determined to ruin his life and take over the clan, and you have a recipe for disaster! What's a bear to do??? Travel to Earth, reclaim his mate and bring her home to his den, of course! Let the games begin! Will Talen be able to convince Cassie that she is his true mate and talk her into returning home to Aurora with him??? We'll see! All the books in this series can be read as a standalone and always end with a wonderful happy ending but do yourself a solid and read them all! You'll never regret it! Fabulous entertainment and an awesome read! I can hardly wait for the next book in this captivating series!
If you're looking for a great collection of paranormal stories filled to the brim with fantasy, adventure, passion, angst, humor, romance, panty-melting shifters, hot handsome aliens and real women with curves, then this is most assuredly the set for you!
