The Wolf King's Mate
A woman betrayed…
When the opportunity to flee the States for the wild beauty of Switzerland falls into her lap, Tahlia Bromley seizes it with both hands. Now nanny to a real-life prince, she lives in a palace, surrounded by such wealth and beauty that her life seems like a dream. Maybe this fairytale existence will help heal her heart, broken by the lies and betrayal that destroyed her back home, but only if she can find a way to let go of the anger and hurt, and move on.
Then she meets a man who sweeps her off her feet. But he’s not just any man. Oh, no. He’s naked. He’s larger than life. And he’s the King.
And, for some strange reason, he wants her.
A barbarian king…
All alpha wolf shifter Nicholas knows is how to be a soldier. An enforcer. The one who guards his King’s back and defends the pack with claws and teeth.
But the King is dead. No, his brother is dead. Murdered in cold blood. Now Nicholas is the King, the ruling Alpha of the pack, and he will avenge his brother’s death.
Then his fated mate walks into his life and her very existence threatens to bring him to his knees. This woman was born to rule by his side, but she's playing hard to get.
He’s found his queen. Now he has to win her love.

Seriously, picking up this kind of books, I never have high expectations, except that I am entertained without too much stupidity. Well, I got disappointed.
The characters were superbland and boring, way too many were pressed inside such a short little story to be even a little well drawn, so all of them were too shallow. Especially the h was not my cup of tea, her first meeting with the H was so ridiculously stupid, that I thoughtcrime couldn‘t get worse. I was wrong.
When finally a bit of action came, even more stupidity showed itself in form of a lame and onedimensional antagonist and what in the name of god does her ex boyfriend there? It was simply not fun to read. If you write such a short story don‘t try to put fivehundred tropes in there it will never function.
Even the romance and sexy scenes were torture for me ... so .... nah.

Story just missed the mark.

When Tahlia discovered her fiance in bed with her best friend she flees to Switzerland to take the job as nanny to Prince Alex, a well advanced 2 year old or so she believes as she is unaware that he is a wolf shifter. She hasn't met Uncle Nick yet but when she does she is smitten with the handsome naked man standing naked over her charge.
So this story begins and once again I am enthralled by a sexy dominant shifter and a precocious little boy. Ms. Arran has never failed to take me on journeys of love and entertainment sinceI first discovered her as an author.
I voluntarily read an advance copy and was not compensated in any way for this opinion.

Well, this book started out ok and didn't get any better. The plot was predictable, the characters were shallow and one dimensional with little detail to make them stand out for other romances that have been written better, and the heroine's dilemma wasn't much of one. Maybe this book was too short, with more chapters and details this could be good book.

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book. This was a short read that had equal elements of humor, snark, romance, sexy times, family, and love. It made me want to read more stories within this series. The plot centers around a nanny, Thalia, who fled The States after heartbreak and became the caretaker for a young orphaned prince, Alexander, who is now living with his uncle, the newly-appointed, reluctant, grieving, King Nicholas, who was an enforcer prior to his brother and sister-in-law’s deaths which made him the king. He prefers to be called Nick. After being out running with his nephew in their wolf forms, Lia encounters the naked man in the child’s room late at night and not knowing that he’s the king believing initially that he was there to harm the child and she moves to defend a fast asleep Alex. The have a passionate encounter before she gets her wits about her and this is the start of his pursuit of Lia. Meanwhile, there are other interesting, fun characters such as Zara, Mark, and Shane, and Tony, Lia’s ridiculous ex that caused her to flee to Switzerland in the first place. There’s also Raul, who is a piece of work. I was more than happy with how he was dealt with. I think that I will be checking out more of the stories within this line. I hope that they are as good as this story was.

Another fun read
Nick is a barbarian but in a good way. He is a no nonsense wolf that knows what he wants and goes after it. Thalia is his mate but she is no pushover. The story is great. It lost a star because I wish it had been longer.

Brilliant short read that was the perfect blend of danger, romance, family bonds and feel good humour..with a pinch of irreverent snark!
Thalia, aka Lia, is the new nanny to a newly orphaned toddler, Alex. He is waaaay to mature for his age but Lia loves the little guy and would do the job for nothing! She landed the job when she had just left her slimbeball ex after catching him with her best friend. But when she sees a tall, built, naked guy in Alex's room she flips to mama bear mode and threatens to rip him a new one if he doesn't leave.
Nick, aka King Nicholas, never expected to meet his nephews nanny whilst nude, after returning from an illicit run with young Alex. He can't exactly tell her he is a shifter but he manages to dazzle her into not castrating him! When she finally meets a clothed Nick, Lia realises he is her boss and expects to be fired forthwith, but she finds herself on a date instead!
As Nick and Lia grow closer, we learn more about the tragedy that left Nick as Alpha and interim father. We also see more from Lia's ex who seems to be delusional to say the least!
With great secondary characters such as Zara (Nick's assistant), Mark (Cocky enforcer type) and Shane (honorary pack member and another shifter, there is a very strong cast to keep you engaged.
Raul is sufficiently twisted and evil and there are a few misunderstood moments with a newly returned pack member which plays on Lia's insecurities. Great read and I'd love more!!!

ENTICING detailed fast-past intriguing read that keeps you hooked from the start. Inside - danger, emotional moments, gripping suspense, betrayal, fiery passionate romance, and a heavenly happy ever after.
Tahlia is thrilled to be in Switzerland and loving her job as nanny to the toddler Prince Alex who keeps her on her toes. Nicholas now Alpha and King to his pack cuts himself off from fun and friendships since the death of his brother and his brother's wife; he conducts business but his heart is sad due to his loss. He does have fun with his nephew. Tahlia and Nicholas' first meeting sizzles in the air when he recognizes his true mate. The two have words; Nicholas is left wanting as he watches his mate flee from him; he must find a way to show her she belongs by his side.
Fabulous is this story and well written. I so loved the witty banter between Nicholas and Tahlia as she is sassy and definitely his perfect match. It was fun visualizing how Nicholas' charismatic persona wooed Tahlia as he wanted her to fall in love with him. Alex is quite smart for 2 years old, a protector and adorable. Loved the camaraderie within the pack. If you treasure shifter romance this is a great book for your library. I love shifter stories and found this to be a most entertaining read so {I voluntarily reviewed an advanced copy.} Without, reservations I recommend this read.

When you read an Olivia Arran book you know you are going to get a great story, fun characters and you just can't put it down read. This book is a good example. Thalia leaves the United States and goes to Switzerland for a nanny job. Her boyfriend cheated on her breaking her trust and heart. She is hired to look after an adorable two year old orphan boy, Alex. She is told that this is the King's heir, but wait, Switzerland does not have a monarchy.
Thalia meets King Nicholas, Alex's uncle. Sparks fly. Thalia or Lia is a sassy, smart woman. She wants Nick and Nick wants her. He is not sure how to court a human. She can't possibly know that they are forever mates in the werewolf way.
There is a mystery to solve. How did little Alex's parents die? Who was involved. Can Lia love a man that is a werewolf? Thali's boyfriend shows up, how does her compare to Nick?
Thalia is a strong woman and her dialog is great. I wish I could be so creative with words. Nick is an adaptable man.
This is another Olivia Arran homerun. Now I want to know about Kara and Marc, are they next?

Cute and funny
Nick was awesome. He was placed in the position of king when his brother and his mate were killed. He was also the guardian of his two year old nephew. He had pulled away from his pack, isolating himself so that he wouldn't have to feel the pain of loss again.
Thalia was employed as a nanny to Nick's nephew Alex. She usually only took care of babies but she needed to get out of Seattle and away from her cheating ex and best friend.....So Switzerland it was.
Nick was taking Alex out for runs at night as a wolf. One night Thalia saw him naked leaning over Alex who had just fallen asleep. She had never met Nick do she threatened the "stranger" with a golf club. Nick knew right away that she was his mate but decided to court her the human way. That way he would win her heart first not just her body.
There was some excitement about a neighboring Alpha who may have had something to do with his brothers death because he wants both packs.
So, overall I enjoyed reading this cute story that was also had some funny parts. Totally recommended.

January 31, 2020I am cleaning out my shifter freebies this weekend so there are several of similar reviews. The Wolf King’s Mate part of the Howls romance series. You can also find it free in Kindle unlimited. The book is only 141 pages, so it’s a super short read.
Tahlia flees to Switzerland to be a Prince’s nanny, soon after arriving, the king is murdered, and his brother Nicholas must step in.
The book starts with T already caring for Prince Alex and the King and Queen already dead, which is good since the book is so short. One unique part of the story is that the OW character, Zara, is actually nice and supportive of the relationship. She is King Nick’s BFF, and provides support to both of them. This is actually a pretty pro female shifter romance, although the H is alpha, there isn’t the typical “me Tarzan... you Jane” theme we are used to. Several parts talk about females being strong “the backbone” of the pack...Nick even encourages Zara to challenge the evil alpha and lead the pack herself.

Tahlia has been hired as a nanny for Prince Alex of Switzerland. But Switzerland doesn't have a royal family. What Tahlia does not know is that Alex and his Uncle Nick, the king and all the others are wolf shifters. Nick's brother (the original king) and his mate were killed in an accident which was really an assassination. When Tahlia first sees Nick he is naked. He is not bothered by this, but Tahlia is embarrassed and also intrigued.
Eventually Tahlia finds out about the wolf shifters and that she is Nick's Mate and the rival wolf shifter king who was responsible for the death of Nick's brother gets his comeuppance.
I really enjoyed this story with its slightly different take on Shifters.
I was given an Advanced copy of this book and am freely and voluntarily writing this review.

The Wolf King's Mate by Olivia Arran is part of the Howls Romance series. This book will have you laughing and hoping for love all in the same paragraph. King Nicholas is the Alpha of the Wolf clan in Switzerland. He will be King until Prince Alex is old enough to take his rightful place. Nick's brother was the King until he was killed. Nick never wanted to be King but he is giving it his all. Prince Alex is only 2 after all.
Tahlia is an American nanny hired to care for the Prince. How she actually meets the King will have you laughing and then have all your girl parts noticing.
Olivia Arran writes some of the best paranormal series available. I have yet to read a book a didn't enjoy. Thank you Olivia for filling my days with joy. I received an ARC from the author. This is my voluntary honest review.

Ehh...okay...
An unremarkable and unmemorable story about a would-be king who meets his mate in an unsuspecting human. This story has been done to death and there is nothing remotely new about this one to remember it.
Nicholas, the barbarian king, is an alpha wolf who reluctantly assumes leadership after his brother and his wife are killed. Enter the only human in proximity--his fated mate--Tahlia Bromley, who has fled the states due to a broken heart, yada-yada-yada. As always with shifters, Nicholas sees Tahila, wants her, waits a little to make it interesting, and gets her. Tahlia plays coy as per typical but at the end of the story, both are madly in love with each other and all is well that ends well.
Nothing new or exciting is this novella but nonetheless a relaxing way to pass a couple of hours in the day.
On my Were Scale of hotness, 2.5 stars.

Sizzling, humorous Wolf-Shifter / Nanny Story!!
When your boyfriend (ex-now) sleeps with your best friend (also ex-now); what do you do? Move to Switzerland to become nanny to Prince Alexander who lost his parents. Uncle Nick, or King Nicholas supposedly visits Alex, but Tahlia hasn’t met him yet – until Uncle Nick shows up sans clothes and lots of explaining to do.
Of course as reader we know Uncle Nick is a wolf-shifter, but Tahlia has no idea such a thing exists. Uncle Nick is pure business, and needs to relax a bit to help his pack, and possibly win a mate?!? Delightful story of fated mates, pack politics, loss and romance. I highly recommend this story!!

I love it when books keep you turning the pages. This book did that. Tahlia is an american in Switzerland, a nanny to a little prince. She had to get away from her cheating boyfriend and this was perfect. Poor little prince is in the care of his uncle, his parents were killed. Nicholas is the king he did not want to be, a wolf shifter and king alpha, he took over after the death of his brother. Nicholas discovers, after finally seeing the nanny, that not only is she perfect, but his one true mate. The book follows their relationship, from dating, to finding out shifters exist. There is another wolf causing real problems, and a pack that needs attention, a long with a funny and a little wild two year old prince. Wonderfully written with excitement and humor and a HEA to finish it off.

I thoroughly enjoyed this fun read and loved the characters. The plot was interesting and flowed well.
In one short book we get family commitment, love, betrayal, murder, intrigue and of course romance. Added to this mix is sassy, smart and strong women equally paired with good alpha men. This is reflected in other characters in this book not just the two H’s. Really enjoyed this facet of the story.
One fly in the ointment was taken care of and what happened with the cheating ex boyfriend had me in stitches.
Read in one sitting even though I should have been asleep.

Nicholas has been thrown into the role of king and Alpha to his pack in Switzerland after the death of his brother.
Tahlia, after being betrayed by her boyfriend take a job as nanny to the orphaned prince of the Switzerland pack.
When Lia and Nick meet he knows straight away who Lia is to him and his wolf but how will he convince her what he’s offering is forever especially when she doesn’t know shifters exist !
This story has a good balance of drama, danger and romance, it was very easy to get lost in the story and lose track of time, always a good sign with a book. Would I recommend this, most definitely so get comfortable and enjoy.

Thalia & Nick
Oh...! I really loved, loved, loved this book!!!!
We get to meet Nick, (Alpha and king of a wolf pack of shifters). and Thalia Nanny to the King's 2 years old nephew. I truly love the dynamic on this book the easy banter between Thalia and Nick. As well as the easy relationship with the secundaries characters ( Zara and ) I must say though that the matter they meet was ridiculous and not very real at all. I find the H and h really easy to like and really enjoyed Thalia's monologues with herself. They were so hilarious! I Truly loved this book and will be checking out books from this author. Highly recommended

THE WOLF KING’S MATE
I absolutely loved this book. The storyline was intriguing and captivating, and very entertaining. Nick and Lia were strong, interesting and very likable characters. I loved that this story was dual POV, I always prefer it when I get both characters thoughts. They had a sizzling chemistry and a strong connection, and I loved the dialogue between the two of them. This was a very enjoyable read, and a favourite for me. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

This book is short, fast paced and enjoyable. I read this book in one sitting and wasn’t once bored. I liked Tahlia. I liked her personality and attitude. I liked Nick but I wanted more of him in the story. I saw some chemistry between him and Tahlia but would’ve liked a little more. I also would’ve liked a few more scenes of Nick and Tahlia together in.
I really liked Tahlia’s bond with Alex. Alex is super cute!
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and it is an enjoyable read.

A wonderful sweet and sassy shifter romance!
Lia is in Switzerland (escaping troubles back home in America) look after Prince Alex - a cheeky and precious little animal (literally).
Nick is the new King and guardian of Alex after his parents pass away, and he is struggling with the transition until he meets Lia - his mate!
Great characters, plenty of humour and action, well worth a read!

Things happen for a reason
Leaving her cheating ex behind, Lia is hired to take care of the crown Prince, or so she thinks. Nick is now alpha, after his brother is killed, his nephew is now his son. The family dynamic is strong in this story, the main characters care about and care for the others in the pack. The bad guy and his followers are dealt with in true wolf form. It's short and sweet and very much like the rest of the series.

Fun short shifter read!
I always enjoy Olivia’s books. Is you want a short sexy shifter book then read any of her books. This one was good. It was about a wolf king and queen getting killed and the kings brother taking over as king. He is left with a nephew and a nanny comes to take care of him. Talhia ends up being the mate of the king. Even short it had a good story and I enjoyed it.

Tahlia is hired as a nanny to Nick's nephew and when Nick meets Tahlia the sparks literary fly! Lol. I adored Alex, too cute! A great story!

4.5stars. I love a romance, or story, with a nanny loving her boss. This book gave me that and he was king ! What more? This story was sweet, and I loved that we had a damaged hero, that never used that against our heroine. He always talked about her with hope and love. If shifters and mates were a thing in the real world, I truly believe this is how it world really go down between the couple. Keeping it on my kindle, will reread on a rainy day! Give it a try!

I love Lola's books and this one I have put at the top of my favourites. Witty with lots of banter and drama, I loved Aspen and Enzo's story. Enzo is the dark, brooding hero who has the weight of the pack on his shoulders and Aspen is a strong and determined woman who fights to ensure she has a freedom when her secret is discovered. I couldn't put this book down and had to read it in one sitting. Thank you Lola for creating a world that I could lose myself in and enjoy.

The Wolf King's Mate may be similar to the other nanny/guardian uncle romances, but this shifter world and these characters draw you in. Humans don't know shifters exist. Tahlia is sweet, sassy, and not a pushover. Nick is a bada$$ alpha, but still old fashioned. This fun novella feels like a much bigger story, yea!

Tahlia accepts a job as nanny to a prince in Switzerland. She found her best friend and boyfriend in bed together. She finds a very precocious two year old orphan who she loves dearly. Then she meets his Uncle Nick, The King. Wow! He is hot and romantic and blows her away. These two have a very erotic romance. This is a definite must read. I received this as an ARC and voluntarily reviewed it.
