This one is sooo much better than the last few I've read. Titan is a peach and Natasha is a badass (in a good way) chick. They are perfect together and that's all I'm going to say about it.
I am ADDICTED to this series; I can get enough of this paranormal romantic goodness. With alpha males in all shapes and sizes with Ménage à trois, MFM love triangles (eat your heart out), Vampires, Shifters, and Elves. It is Sexy, it is Sizzling, it is smoking Hot, it is Erotic so much so that it jumps right off the pages and leaves you needing a cold shower. Sassy, headstrong females, and fighting to the death is not uncommon. So, what happens when smoking hot vampires and shifters, mortal enemies want the same thing; this is where things get so interesting, and the fun begins. These men are ruthless, they are vicious, power players, they are violent. There is lots of action, danger and war around every corner but given all that they love fast, they love with their whole heart and make you want to go and find your own. Charlene has woven a captivating, tangled web of lies, deceit, suspense, drama and love that will leave you breathless. The characters are to die for, and each have their own voice in this series. I love that we get their POV because it makes them more real. It is not all doom and gloom though there are plenty of witty moments and humour that will have you laughing out loud. Don’t even stop to think just click and read and tell me I am not wrong. Happy reading!
It was great and very very different from the other plots. And also this book for me was a bit longer, my impression or was it? Titan, his character bug me a bit because I couldn't remember who he was and I gave up figuring out from which part, which book and solely focusing about the team!
Oh wow! Titan was surprisingly so unexpected. After bring so difficult about working with human women and then being just as antsy around them he just wins your heart and you can't help but fall in love with him a little bit. Natasha also happens to be exactly the kind of woman he needs. Fiercely independent and strong but levelheaded. She is quite the perfect match for him because she's loyal and honorable but is willing to go the extra mile to do what she must do to keep him safe.

DELICIOUSLY CUTE AND DELIGHTFULLY ENTERTAINING !!! Title: A Mate for Titan Series: The Program Designation: Book Seven of Series, Full-Length Standalone Novel, NO Cliffhanger (A Mate for Brynn is also included as a free bonus. This short 20,000-word novelette was released in 2016 as part of the Taming the Vampire Anthology.) Author: Charlene Hartnady Reading Platform: Kindle Unlimited My Rating: FIVE DELICIOUSLY CUTE STARS***** It's no secret I'm a diehard Charlene Hartnady fan and love everything she writes but she's really outdone herself - AGAIN! Yes, I know I say the same thing every time but this series just gets better and better, and Hartnady totally rocked my world with A Mate for Titan, the seventh release in her captivating The Program Series! I was completely enthralled from page one and simply could not stop reading. This book has it all. Love steamy passion and dreamy romance? It's included. Want a little drama laced with a little angst? Yep, it has that too. Lots of sexy, sassy banter? Most definitely! Have to have a few plot twists? Well, you're in luck because they're also included! Need a few shenanigans and lots of humor thrown in for comic relief? Oh absolutely! Prefer a read with a few thrills, chills and a lot of bite? You bet! Must be a story that will tug on your heartstrings but still leave you with a silly grin and a serious case of the warm and fuzzies? Absolutely! As I said - this book has it all. I laughed! I cried! And I found myself holding my breath while my heart skipped and stuttered! Yes, it's that good! So, what are you waiting for? Grab it and start reading. The author does a fabulous job of including sufficient backstory so each of the books in this series can be read as a standalone. However, there is an underlying interconnected storyline developing throughout the series so I would still highly recommend reading all the books in the series. It's one decision you'll never regret. I think one of the things I enjoy most about Hartnady's books and especially this series, is the fact that all the stories take place in the same world with many of our favorite characters from her other series appearing throughout all the books. It's no small feat for an author to seamlessly orchestrate, coordinate and integrate each story/series with the other and requires a tremendous amount of work, organization, skill, and craftsmanship but Charlene has managed to make it look easy. I love it! This story is unique, exceptionally well crafted, fast-paced, cute, fun, romantic and seductive. Heck, I'm 65 and even I want to apply for "The Program." The narrative is exceptionally well written in the third person with alternating his and her points of view from the two protagonists. The dialogue is smart, snappy, well executed, flows effortlessly and at times, absolutely hilarious. The entire book is well edited which is always a big plus for me. The characters are an absolute joy. They are captivating, fascinating, engaging, endearing, sexy as sin and at times, laugh out loud funny. As I stated earlier, another big plus for me is the recurring appearance of many of the characters from previously released books. It's always a treat to see how our favorite characters are doing. Charlene skillfully combines these elements into a delightfully entertaining tale filled to the brim with side-splitting humor, fun-filled adventure, heartbreaking angst, a generous measure of a romping good time and loads of dreamy romance! Where can I sign up for "The Program?"
The premise for this series is quite original, imaginative and unlike anything I've ever read. I'm not a writer nor professional reviewer but I'll try to give you a brief synopsis: Vampire Kings, Zane and Brant, are now proud papas of a bouncing baby boy named Sam and when they aren't trying to keep their human mate, Queen Tanya, happy and satisfied, they're both busy implementing their new "Breeding Program" also known as "The Program." What? Breeding Program? Oh yes, I said breeding program. Zane and Brant have learned from Ward, the Alpha of the wolf shifters and Stephany's new mate, that despite their earlier beliefs, humans are strong enough to survive a mating with both shifters and vampires. It seems the shifters have been doing it for years, in secret of course. The Kings have finally embraced this new idea and have been hard at work drawing up the contracts with the human authorities and finalizing the arrangements so that the warriors from their combined covens will now be able to choose human females for mates. Their hard work has finally paid off and they're launching the first stage of "The Program" by advertising for women to volunteer to date/mate a vampire. Huh? Yep, the elite vampire warriors have competed in hand to hand combat to win one of the ten coveted slots in The Program. The winners participated in a three-day trial to eliminate anyone that suffers from 'blood lust'. The program has now progressed through the first round and now into the 'second heat' where the men interact/date the second group of human females and yes, that does include sex and blood drinking. Oh my! The human women have been carefully screened and will be monetarily compensated for their participation, even if they aren't chosen to be a mate. Sounds like quite a dangerous and expensive undertaking but unfortunately, one that has become a necessary risk since vampires are becoming extinct. Although it's dangerous for human women to give birth to vampire babies, most female vampires cannot safely birth children at all and have to be sterilized. Sadly, the births resulting from vampire/human unions have only been male. As a result, there's a shortage of viable females thereby creating the problem - they need human women. But not everyone is happy about the new program and one group has already made an attempt on the life of King Zane and several of the human female applicants. So now it seems that not only are the vampires at risk but also anyone involved with The Program may be in danger as well. Oh my goodness!
Our story begins with Elite Guard Titan being chosen by Vampire Kings Brant and Zane to work with the human authorities, namely the FBI, and head Operation Finding Nemo (aka Operation Kill the Motherf#%kers), an investigation to find and eliminate...um...capture the members of the vigilante group responsible for targeting the vampires, almost killing King Zane, and kidnapping with deadly intent the human women participating in vampire's dating/breeding program. Titan was chosen because he's one of the few Elite left who isn't mated and there's no chance of that ever happening. He may be in charge of security for the humans participating in The Program, but he wants absolutely nothing to do with any women, humans or vampires - EVER! He's learned his lesson and has been celibate for 18 months and plans to stay that way permanently. So when FBI Executive Assistant Director Richard Evans and FBI Supervisory Special Agent Kimberly Stewart, aka The Ballbreaker, saddle him with down-on-her-luck Agent Natasha Walters, he balks... until he realizes what they're doing, then reluctantly agrees to allow beautiful FBI agent Walters to join him in Sweetwater to keep up appearances. He'd just keep her busy with paperwork and handle the investigation himself, and keep her as far away as possible. Problem solved, right? So, so wrong!
Natasha Walters has devoted her adult life trying to fulfill her dream of becoming a crackerjack law enforcement agent. And once she's finally noticed by the FBI, she thought her dream had come to fruition until she refused the sexual advances of Executive Asst Director Richard Evans and then botched her first field sting operation by killing the perp her boss needed alive. Oops! But in her defense, the perp would have killed her had she not killed him first. Now, she could do nothing right and was only one step away from having to give up on her dream and being forced out of the FBI. This assignment could be her only chance to get her career back on track. And the vampire Titan who is now her new superior on the case would just have to deal with it...and her! It doesn't bother her one bit that he's gorgeous, sexy, irresistible, and oh so lickable. Oops! She could resist... she would resist! Good thing he seems to dislike her and wants nothing to do with her. Or does it? We'll see!
Oh my! Here we go again! No spoilers from me but I will say this....Beautiful, bada$$ FBI agent-check! Handsome, sexy, cocky and very celibate elite vampire guard-check! A wonderful cast of characters-check! Danger, drama, a little angst, dangerous enemies and evil machinations-check! Heated attraction, fiery passion, adorable humor, steamy sex and a very surprising romance-you bet! That and a whole lot more! I can hardly wait for the next book in the series. Deliciously cute, seriously sexy, completely captivating and delightfully entertaining!
I must admit, I began this book with all intentions of hating it, but shock me - I loved it! Up until this point, Titan has been quite the cocky, unlikeable rascal who was very much in need of an attitude adjustment and thankfully, did get one in Book Three of The Chosen Series by Hartnady. He's also made cameo appearances in quite a few other books. Titan's an Elite Guard and, in the past, has been all too eager to weigh in on everyone else's personal life - until now. But never fear - you'll get most of the backstory as this book progresses and all is revealed. Once I started reading, I couldn't get enough! Titan has had a life-changing crisis of conscience and is my new favorite! So, what didn't I like about this book? Not a darn thing! What did I love about this book? Everything, but especially the interaction between Titan and Natasha when they talk about their weapons. Natasha is a woman after my own heart. She received her first gun at age 12, a Christmas gift from her dad. I also received my first gun from my dad at age 13, a four-ten shotgun, and 52 years later, it's still part of my collection. This story is NOT your usual instant mate, instant love, and instantly falling into bed with each other. It's quite different. Although these two characters were immediately attracted to each other, they were both determined not to give in to the attraction and it was not until they really got to know each other that the spark became an out of control blaze of passion. Hubba! Hubba! Don't get me wrong, I love it when there is an instant attraction but it's a refreshing change to occasionally shake things up. Would I recommend this book??? You bet and I am but only for adult readers! Will I read this author again? Absolutely, just as soon as she releases her next book! Fabulous entertainment and an awesome read.
I was happy to see Titan was given a chance for his own mate. I have loved all six previous Program books and this 7th one gives Titan and Natasha's story. Titan must work closely with Natasha, a special FBI agent assigned to this investigation of who is trying to kiil the vampires and their human brides. Titan is afraid to be around human females, they confuse him so he would prefer to avoid them at all costs. The blurb and other reviews have pretty much outlined the basis of this story, so I will refrain from doing that also. Know that these Program books of Charlene Hartnady are GREAT and I can't wait for more. The Bride Hunt series is outstanding also, I hope there are more coming of those too. This can be read as a stand alone with a HEA but I suggest you don't miss any of them, you will love the world they live in.
Excellent,outstanding,loved,loved,loved this book! I have read all of Charlene 's books 📚and they just keep getting better and better. She is an amazing writer and storyteller! Can't wait for the next book to come out😆☺
I am ADDICTED to this series; I can get enough of this paranormal romantic goodness. With alpha males in all shapes and sizes with Ménage à trois, MFM love triangles (eat your heart out), Vampires, Shifters, and Elves. It is Sexy, it is Sizzling, it is smoking Hot, it is Erotic so much so that it jumps right off the pages and leaves you needing a cold shower.

Don’t even stop to think just click and read and tell me I am not wrong. Happy reading!
I liked the MCs and even if Titan did what he did, I stupidly don’t resent him. I read the book in which he did that thing and I gotta say, he kinda didn’t have an excuse. The whole “I didn’t hear, I didn’t know” is hard to believe in that scenario but I went with it in order to enjoy this one.
Another amazing story for The Program series, I had been awaiting Titan's story for a while since their was so much secrecy surrounding this character and now we get to find out why. In this story we have Titan our gorgeous Thor lookalike with his long blond hair, beard, beautiful blue eyes and a deliciously muscular bod to die for. He is given the assignment to find the anti-vampire terrorists and bring them to justice but theirs a catch he has to work along side an FBI agent in order to keep the peace with human law enforcement. To Titan's horror he is assigned a woman as his partner, a very sexy, curvaceous, big breasted, long black hair and brown eyes the beautiful Natasha Walters. The attraction between them is instantaneous but neither will admit their feelings as they are working a case together and it would be unprofessional plus Titan is adamant to staying away from any relationship with human women. Tensions flare as they are forced to work together everyday and begin to get to know each other despite Titan's many objections and efforts to keep her away. I really enjoyed this story Titan and Natasha were perfect for each other, it was hilarious reading how Titan's passion for swords and his love of sparing, training or anything fight related turned her on when her love of guns, badass attitude and love of her duty to protect and take down the bad guys turned him on. The sexual chemistry between them was palpable and their were so many sexually charged moments filled with a huge salami-shaped weapon which had me laughing. Natasha was just hilarious, the things she thought off and that came out of her mouth were a laugh riot. I just loved her character she was an awesome leading lady, strong, brave, kind, caring, intelligent and extremely witty a women who can take care of herself and fight alongside any man. And Titan the big silly lug had been carrying a burden on his shoulders for a year and a half which was basically a misunderstanding but he refused to accept it as that and proceeded to punish himself for his actions. He was a very gruff, jealous and ill tempered man but after he lets loose we see a new side to him, passionate, romantic, delightfully alpha male with his possessiveness and a hell of a lover with an amazing stamina and the massive weaponry to boot leaving Natasha a little sore and bough legged lol. Their passion once unleashed was HOT and wickedly STEAMY, once Titan unloaded his burdens and released his inhibitions he became unstoppable in containing his desires any longer unleashing upon Natasha the full force of his manly urges leaving my jaw hitting the floor and needing a cold shower. My only comment would be that I found it took to long for them to come together and when they did it felt a bit rushed to me. Titan was fighting their attraction tooth and nail, was about to get rid of her and then the morning their about to part ways suddenly he just looses it, to be honest I thought it would have been more appropriate if he'd caved in the night before when she had finally confessed her feelings for him. And it wasn't enough that he carries a massive burden he's given another obstacle to overcome just to keep him busy the poor guy. But other than this I extremely enjoyed this book and am looking forward to the next one fingers crossed it Drago's turn.
Warning: mature sexual content, mature themes, and language.
It was so enticing that I couldn’t put it down, this book grabbed my interest from the very first page. I couldn’t put it down, I had to know what happened next. The story is well written with a very good storyline. This is book seven of seven of The Program series. This one is two books in one. (Set in the same world The Chosen Series)
Have you ever wanted to date a vampire? Human women required. Must be enthusiastic about interactions with vampires. Must be willing to undergo a stringent medical exam. Must be prepared to sign a contractual agreement which would include a non-disclosure clause. Limited positions available.
Titan is one of the strongest Vampire warriors on the team. He’ll take on anyone, anytime, anywhere and with his bare hands. There aren’t many things he’s afraid of. Only one thing to be exact. Human females. He’s deathly afraid of human females. Try as he might, Titan doesn’t understand them. Not one bit. They send mixed signals and don’t always say what they mean. This lack of understanding caused him to do something he’s deeply ashamed of. He’s working hard to make amends, whilst keeping his distance. This set-up is working perfectly fine until his kings send him on a mission. One that will send him straight into untold and unknown danger. It’s not guns, knives and bombs that scare him, it’s the one time pint size human he’s been assigned to work side by side, and day by day with. As close as two people can get and Titan isn't sure he'll survive it.
Brynn, knows exactly what he wants and he has his future all mapped out for himself. Hone and develop his skills as a warrior check, become one of the elite team members, check, and fight and win himself a place in The Program, double check. Now that's he's one of the ten elite males, one of the strongest of his coven, all he has to do is win over one of the human females taking part in The Program and it's just a hop, skip and a jump to having the family he's always dreamed of. On the eve of the start to this prestigious event, he decides to go for a jog and spots a potential threat to his people. It's funny how everything can change in an instant. Now he'll be forced to watch everything he's ever worked for unravel before his eyes and there's nothing he can do to stop it.
So with all that and more these two stories pull you in and hold you tight. They are a must read. I highly recommend to everyone.
A Mate for Titan: The Program: Book 7 And A Mate for Brynn: A Novella By Charlene Hartnady First A Mate for Titan: Character info: Natasha - is an ex-police officer, and has been on with the FBI for six months. She's great with a gun. Titan (vampire)- was given this assessment by his kings. He didn't want to work with anyone especially a human female. He knew she was qualified for the position but he just didn't want to work with a human female. With his history, he just didn't understand humans and he wanted to stay as far from them as possible. We fell in HATE with Titan back in Unlikely Mates (The Chosen Series Book 3) but I came to love him. I have enjoyed playing catch up with CH's books. So happy I found her in this big land called Amazon. Still have a lot of books to read but one thing I have to say is they keep getting better. I love how Titan stuck up for Natasha praising her to all the questioned her credentials. A Mate for Brynn: A Novella Brynn (vampire) - The next heat of The Program started tomorrow. Twenty-five hand-picked human females would arrive on vampire territory. He's elite had fought for his place. This will be his 3 heat so his last chance to find his mate among the 25 females. Tiffany (wolf) - is small in her human form and her wolf. Her only redeeming attributes ‒ her fur was a very rare white. So when alpha Sebastian came to see about dating her which wolves don't do she knew where this was going but she felt nothing for him. I loved this short book. it's short and to the point. As short stories go it had great character development and their instructions were sweet. Glad Brynn got his HEA. And this book finally made the kings look good. Guess they figured they couldn't stop the males from falling in love
A Mate for Titan by Charlene Hartnady. 4 out of 5 stars. Book seven of the Program revolves around Titan and Natasha Walters. The huge member of the Elite Guard is teamed up with an infuriating FBI Agent to investigate the escalating violence in hate crimes and abduction of human women by the vigilante groups. It takes a while but she eventually gets him to relax- a bit- and treat her as a real partner. It's just that he's trying desperately to keep her at a distance because he doesn't think he's worthy of any woman because of his past. After this first fantastic story from Charlene is a second bonus story called A Mate for Brynn. The smallest member of the Elite finds a small female while out running. A small white wolf. Tiffany is the daughter of the Alpha and has an alpha interested in her but doesn't return his feelings. Brynn is one of the members of the Elite that have battled for a place on the Program and won, the new human women are arriving the next day. After talking, he offers to help her learn how to fight to defend herself against the other betas in her pack, but the more time they spend together, the harder it is to separate afterward when they go back to their respective homes. I would recommend this book to others interested in this series and the other linked series to it as well as Charlene Hartnady's writing in general.
Special Agent Natasha Walters has skills but because of her kill shot accuracy and resistance to sexual harassment, she is barely hanging on to her job and given the ultimate insult for a field agent...desk duty. When she is assigned to work with Titan to bring down the fascist group stalking the vampires, Natasha thinks she will finally have her chance to prove herself to all the testosterone labeled males who ogle her on a daily basis. Men...
Tall, dark and handsome has a secret...
Titan’s apprehension to work with humans, especially human females, is stretched to its limits when he partners up with Special Agent Natasha Walters. The attraction between the two is instant but Titan’s having none of that. Predictable but fun...
Case status...
Once Titan and Natasha come together, the case is practically forgotten and their fleeting romance takes center stage. What happens in Sweetwater doesn’t stay in Sweetwater. King Brant gets wind of the romance and as always with Brant, you never know what reaction to expect. Why I like King Zane the best anyway...
Lon story short...
Titan’s aversion to human females won’t last and Natasha will get her man...or woman.
I hated Titan, but I regret the feeling now. The guy is a sweet piece. And who doesn't commit a terrible mistake once in life? He straightened his game, and that's what matters. It was only a bad misunderstanding. A Mate for Titan is a great story. I think the book ended a little too blunt, but it is impossible to drop before you finish going through the last lines. I am a fast reader, and I read it in two hours, but A Mate for Titan is not a short book. You don't want the story to be short! You want it longer! That's why I thought the final part could have more pages. But my complain means zero to the entire awesomeness. A superb plot; Charlene Hartnady is an artist. I hope the Program and her amazing vampires don't stop. The Program is for the Elite team and we still have three more to go. And no excuses for not giving us, readers, that! I expect a lot from this author's creativity.
Charlene is back with her vampires finding a mate. Titan gets a shot at being knocked off his feet literally. He wasn’t looking for it, wasn’t expecting it, and certainly didn’t want it but he got a mate anyway. Natasha is the perfect match for Titan. This story evolves over their undercover operation to find out who is attacking the vampires. It is definitely a hate to love story and was fun to read. Both of them are strong and stubborn and need to forgive themselves before they can find comfort in each other. Some of our favorites are back and it’s great to jump back into the vampire kingdom. My one sticking point is I wanted more. I felt like the ending just went by SO quickly. I just needed a few more chapters expanding on the closure and it would have been perfect. All in all you can read this as a stand alone or enjoy it with the series and catch up on everyone finding their mates.
Titan and Natasha's initial meeting was anything but cordial. They were thrown together and they had to make the best of the situation. Titan's kings were expecting him to uncover the leaders of the vigilante group. Natasha's superiors were expecting her to mess up this assignment so they could fire her; get her out of the FBI for good. I enjoyed their awkward attempts to deny their slow building attraction for each other. Also, Steve the tailor was one of the most humorous and outrageous characters in this story. I enjoyed everything about this fast-paced and delightfully written episode in "The Program" series. I look forward to more of these engaging books. Ms. Hartnady always presents wonderful stories with characters that have extremely human emotions and tender hearts even if their physical appearance denies these truths. I Love reading her stories!!!!!
I loved the loved story but I loved the story behind it just as much or better. I want more of what's going on with the fraction and anti vamps in the upcoming books I think its great to keep it going and I want to know more. I loved that we got to see Tanya and her son and would love to see Zane more. Titans storey was great, I was pissed at him for what he almost did to Becky but I forgave him and enjoyed his perspective and him finding someone for him. The heat was great as always with Charlene, she can write hot sex scenes perfectly and she makes the main ladies more relatable concerning looks and body types. The program series is one of my top favs in vamp books. Looking forward to more
I loved all her books. I have pretty much read all of them. I love how she brings in not only hot steamy sex but also some humor as well. Just love that! I'm currently going into the dragon series. I was really glad she made this mate books because it gives us a different outlook on each character. Because in the books that start these series the characters are painted in a not so nice light. So when I started reading them I was like really these guys get mates. Like Lance and Titan. But I fell in love with them all. Every character had there own history. It showed new light on them. Plus I was glad she did a little something something for Brynn. I will continue to follow her and just truly enjoy reading her books.
I was going to give this vamp series 4 stars bit this last book messed things up a bit, and they also all followed the same theme which can be okay if something big happens. The supposed terrorist against vamps story more or less fizzled until the disappointing end. The whole must drink from a mate part throughout the books seems to dissappear in book 5 where vamps suddenly start drinking from anyone. And going without sex for 18 months as Titan supposedly did?? Till him it was talked of a a impossibility and how vamps can die etc, only suddenly there's an elite vamp whose been on bottled blood for over 18 months. The books genuineness seems to have gotten lost from no 5.....
I have read all of Charlene's books and loved them all. Titan is a vampire carrying a head full of guilt. Natasha is an FBI human agent who is assigned to help Titan track and arrest those who wish to harm the vampires and their human mates. Together they make a great team. Titan doesn't want a partner especially not a human or a woman! Eventually Natasha helps Titan realise he does not need to keep punishing himself and frees him of his guilt. Whilst proving herself a worthy partner. There are so many other vampires I really want to read about too - I hope there are more books to come.
I was excited to read this story, and at first I thought it was gonna be a definite 5 Star. Then as the book progressed it was easy to see this whole story was going to be wrapped around Titan and His woman and not the background drama. The drama fell significantly flat which disappointed me. Especially when Charlene is great at drama and angst mixed with action like in The Vampire Kings books and some of the Dragons. Heck, even some of the others had excellent action, drama, and romance all mixed in. This one fell flat. I still enjoyed it. I liked their banter. Overall it was decent just not a favorite of mine by Charlene and I've read pretty much every single book she's written.
I have followed this series from the start and so I was very excited to read A Mate for Titan. My excitement was justified. This is a great addition to the lineup of hunky, hulky and horny Vampires. Titan and Natasha are a wonderful pair, mixing just the right amounts of steam, passion and pathos into an exciting story about investigating who is behind some serious crimes committed against the Vampires and their mates. Thrown into the bargain is a novella entitled A Mate for Brynne and you have hours of great reading before you. This story doesn’t focus on The Program and so can be easily read as a stand-alone. A must read for any fan.
I really wondered how would the authour be able to spin this around when it was Titan that almost raped Becky, sometimes you believe some characters to be unsalvagable BUT I was not disappointed. We meet a Titan 2.0 a new and improved version of a male that thinks himself guilty (which he was) no matter how much he apologises and makes amends. And we mate a sweet FBI agent that likes guns and he grudgingly accepts to work with her.
Nice book, I have been spoiled from all the menage and reverse harem I have recently read but this one managed to keep me entertained. I couldn't put it down.
Can't help but just love Titan he is so uptight and adamant about his duty that he denies himself everything all because of a mistake sometime ago. Natasha is a fully focused FBI agent who unfortunate made a mistake and is being made to pay dearly for it. These two are perfect for each other and you want them to get it together of course when they do he proved to have bloodlust but she is the perfect person to deal with it. The bonus novella is also just as good everyone just loves Brynn he is so kind and caring so him finding his mate is great even if she is a wolf. Both books are really enjoyable reads.
The Program series is another one of my favourite series that deals with Vampires and Shifters, but in this case mainly the former. Titan made a mistake and for the last 18 months, has refused to join the Program to find a mate. However, the fascists are still around and the King wants them dealt with. In order to do that, Titan is assigned a female FBI Agent to help him out. Their attraction to each other makes things difficult and they fight themselves on it, until they can no longer keep their hands off each other:)
Good, quick read and includes a short novella at the end:) Happy reading!
I adore this series. I can't wait for another one to come out. This one did not disappoint. It was a unique take on the other "Program" books. The heroine is one tough chick. The hero is hard-headed but is quickly led over to the heroine's side where she straightens him out. There were quite a few references to Titan's misdeeds in his past. I know I read this other book but I am going to have to go back and re-read the series, I believe, because I didn't remember this happening. Lol Oh the hardships of a forgetful reader. *sigh*
I have read almost everything that Charlene has written but having to wait for Titan story throughout the series has been a test in patience. His guilt and remorse over his misunderstanding with Becky was heartbreaking. Natasha was perfect for him. I can not imagine his story going any other direction. They are phenomenal together and Inspire hope where there is none.
I loved the ending and that she included a short novella of Brynn finding his mate. Their story was quick but sweet!
