I live in Ontario, Canada, and grew up in a small southern town. I share a home with my mom and have one son, a sweet little granddaughter. We have a close-knit family that makes each day a new experience, along with my furbaby.
Books, music, and movies played a central role in my life. By the time I was in grade eight, I had begun writing short stories and was encouraged to continue by both my English teacher and parents. It wasn’t until later that I started to write books, but only after reading everything I could get my hands on.
To me, there is no better place to be than between the pages of a book!

I really loved this book Mya and Cade are an amazing couple. Mya at first has no idea what is going on but she knows she wants Cade. Cade knows from the minute he sees Mya that she is his mate for life. The only thing is he will have to explain and show her the new life she is about to live. At first she is not sure she can do it but she needs Cade more than breathing.

Will Mya be able to live her life standing side by side her mate for life or will she run and deny her destiny?

Where do I start with this book?! I have to be brutally honest here. I did not enjoy this book at all and I was really looking forward to reading it.

Mya is a werewolf although she doesn’t know she is one. She is being hunted by rogues and is rescued by another werewolf who brings her to the Alpha of his pack, her True Mate, Cade. The attraction is instant. She immediately wants to jump his bones. She finds out she is a werewolf and shifts for the first time. She gets over it pretty quickly and doesn’t question it much which is unsettling. She mates with Cade like a day later which I didn’t like. She is thrust into the role of Alpha Female and and everything just felt rushed.

I didn’t connect with any of the characters. They irritated me. They were trying to hard to be badasses and it all felt forced. I was confused for most of this book and I felt it was all over the place.

I'm on the fence about Claimed. On one hand I liked some things, but on the other I didn't like some things. I loved the whole instamate thing that Cade and Mya had. I'm a huge fan of finding your true mate in paranormal books. Cade was pretty great, he understood that Mya knew nothing of what she truly was and did things like I would. Just kinda threw her in the fire and hoped for the best. He then took the time and explained things to Mya and was considerate of how she feels. Cade made sure he set his own wants and needs aside for Mya. Now Mya, she comes across waaaay to harsh. Not just headstrong, much more intense than that. Instead of coming across as an Alpha or dominant wolf she comes off as self centered and mean. I just could not connect with her at all. But truthfully that seemed to be the personality of every dominant female wolf. Making them all pretty much characters I really just didn’t like. The story also unfolded way too fast. I'm still confused on who everyone is and what pack they belong to.

I did enjoy the connection Cade and Mya ended up having and that was what kept me reading long after I wanted to put it down. I have a lot of unanswered questions, not just about the plot but about Mya and her family. Overall, it was a quick read that had a few problems for me but ultimately did keep me until the end.

Cade has waited for his mate to come back for years. When Mya finally comes back, she has no clue what she really is. Through a chain of events she will get a fast play on everything that she is and how it works, but will she accept that Cade is her mate, her true mate? Can she accept everything that is being thrown at her in the process?

I love shifter books, I always say that I love how different they can be and every book can be made unique in how their shifter world works. This had the true mate style, but then at the same time not, it was a bit confusing how the main couple was a true mate and then you have the side story of Denver and how he is telling one chick they are mates, but then by the end he is trying to tell another girl that she is his mate. I feel like every other chapter was taken out of the book, thats how confusing this book was at times, with information missing, or just the assumption that we knew what was going on or who characters were. The good point in this book were the naughty times, they were on point. I'm gonna read Milo's story, and hope that it's a bit better. I give this 3.5 stars.

This is a new author to me and I will be reading more by her. This is an interesting twist on PNR especially wolf shifters. Cade is the pack Alpha of Mya’s pack even if she didn’t know she was a part of a pack. Mya has been raised strictly human and didn’t even know paranormal entities existed. To say she was shocked when she found out is a gross understatement. Cade knew all along that Mya was true mate but he doesn’t want to overwhelm her when she has so much on her plate already with finding out that supernaturals really do exist.

This store is well written and kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. It is a fast-paced book that I didn’t know what was going to happen next. I can’t wait to see what happens to Milo and the rest of the characters in next installment of the series.

The story starts off with Mya being pulled from the life she knew into a brand new one with no other choice. It was the new life with the new pack, a life of constantly running from the enemy. She was instantly put on edge, but Cade, a hot sexy shifter, was there to calm her nerves. What better way to adjust to a new life than in his arms.

The beginning of the story set the pace and left me wondering what would happen next. Just when I thought I knew what was going to happen the story had twists and turns that left me catching my breath.

The writing was faced paced and edgy. However, with the characters being so quickly g introduced I never felt a real connection, but the banter, steamy scenes and unexpected surprises had me quickly turning the pages.

~~~~~~~~~~Julie's ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review~~~~~~~~~~

This book awesome. Cade, the alpha, finally finds his mate, Mya. She has no clue what is going on and she is a sassy woman. It takes some time but Cade eventually gets Mya to understand what is happening and exactly what mates are. They go through struggles but Mya definitely shows that she is a alpha female. Awesome writing with a explosive storyline.

Claimed by Michelle Corchis is the First book in the Wolf Essence. This is the story of Cade and Mya.
Cade is the Alpha of his pack and has been waiting for his one true mate which turns out to be Mya. Mya doesn't know anything about what she is or anything. Cade works to get her to understands but Mya is a strong harden head sassy women sometimes.
Overall enjoyed this shifter romance.

Needs work

The premise is good, but the female lead is just too bitchy and all over the place for me. Plus the grammar and punctuation need a lot of work. This book needs a good editor and the story needs to flow better than it does.

I usually love books about werewolves and vampires. However, this book just doesn’t do it for me. The story line would be good if the author didn’t try to jam so many characters into it. She needed to spend more time on introducing Mya to a werewolf life. Here is a twenty-one year old girl who has never heard of werewolves when she is rescued, turns for the first time and mates with the alpha all in 24 hours. If I was that girl, I’d be terrified.


She is then dragged off to Toronto because the Alpha’s brother has disappeared. Suddenly we have vampires and rogue weres in the storyline with no real character building being done. I found it too confusing and frustrating to follow.


In the Prologue, the author states that this book is full of erotica and not for teenagers. She is right. However, the erotica is also part of the problem with this story. The main characters have no control over themselves which makes parts of the storyline absurd. This book would have been much better if the author had confined herself to the story of Mya finding out she is a werewolf, joining the pack and finding out about her past. The sex was not needed to this degree and the other storyline- the search for the brother could have been a small note to lead to book 2.

Thank you to the publisher for providing an ARC in exchange for an honest review. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I kinda fell in love with this story once I started with page 1. I love how the author writes about Mya, she knows nothing about herself. And Cade's entrance is spectacular! I fall in love with him immediately.

I will give 4.2 stars for this book, I do recommend it but only if you are interested in supernatural story crossover with love story. 0
