I am to be given to these men, marry them, and bear their children. The more children, the better. I had barely played with the idea of just being with one normal guy.
Imagine multiple hungry, aggressive shapeshifters who have not seen a woman in 100 years...
Yeah, 100 years.
How could I possibly handle all that?

Born and raised near Pacific Grove in California, where only about 15000 souls live, Hollie found her passion in writing since she was just nine. She would write odd short stories about fantastic beings or plays she would enact with her friends, where she was always captured by some sort of beast. In these stories, there was no Prince Charming, only dragons and werewolves that were both scary and fascinating.
As she grew older she dwelled into more adult topics. She learned about the fun and fire of steamy romance novels, where the peculiar traits of her favorite characters made them dangerously alluring, physically and psychologically. Today these characters are like people inside her head. They that won't leave her alone until she gives them life. And even though she is the only one writing, Fifty* is always there to assist with inspiration.
*Mom's girl. Probably the brattiest chihuahua ever.
I received this book as a gift from Booksprout to as an advanced read and having read it I would like to give an honest review.
Hollie is an amazing writer. She has the true gift of a story teller each one of her books are so different you just don’t know what you are going to be reading about, what world your are going to be traveling to, or what type of creatures you will come across. What an imagination and the way that she can tie it all together is just...wow. This collections is fantastic and I am so glad that I had the opportunity to read them.
Book 1 – SEDUCING TWO SERIAL KILLERS
This is am amazing story. One that will grab at you and just like a roller coaster it will click clack slowly laying out a sort of plan of path, then it shoots you all around and over the countryside making you wonder how in the word the whole things will ever come out? My heart is still beating hard and I finished reading this story a while ago. This is a story I recommend to be read.
Emma comes into to the tale as a young girl that has been pulled out of her university by the lure of money from what she later learns are some questionable employer’s. She was studying to be a Profiler, but Senator Arrow’s daughter Lisa is missing and assumed last seen in the shifter city of Animusa. There is a reason she was sent to the city but humans were so ill informed. You see Emma is immune to the shifters ability hypnotize humans to do what the want them to do. The catch however that Emma is unaware of is that she has a particular odor about her that is very tantalizing to shifters. Not in a yum yum way but in a sexually attracted version. Also there is the little know fact that children that come from a mix of sifter and an immune person are born with much higher qualities; stronger and smarter.
Richard Forge has been looking for his missing brother for some time now. He is one of the councilmen of the city, his brother has been fighting against the under belly of illegal activities that surround the area but most think that he is now dead. All except for Richard that is still trying to find him. Being dragon shifters they are powerful but they are not immortal.
Tarren Vale is also a dragon shifter, and as Richard puts it when talking to him of all of the under-world lords he is the least terrible. Richard wants Tarren’s help and contacts in the under-world of crime to try and find his brother. Tarren also has his own agenda that he is fighting. He is slowly taking out child sex trafficker’s. Oh no one can exactly prove that it is him that is doing it but somehow Richard knows. It is the one thing that some that know Tarren respect about him.
There is also the thing called the Honor Hunt. Now that is something that will have to be read about to be explained. There are legal ones and then the illegal ones. They way that Holly describes it though it makes you look at the things in our own world.
All three of them Emma, Richard, and Tanner get mixed up together, what their relationship turns out to be is something that you will have to find out for yourself but you will enjoy the ride of getting there.
Book 2 – BRANDED BY THE BLACK WOLVES The prologue tell how the Werewolf’s and Humans even though they had their separate territory’s the had not only a peace treaty between each other but also trade. Soon over the horizon a new enemy come to light the “Demons”. This is such a great story I honestly could not stop reading it once I started because I just had to know what happens next. I love a story where n only the main character grows and matures but also the people that are around her start to change into better people than the were at the beginning of the story. I wasn’t really sure how the prologue actually fit into this fit into the story as I started read the book, but it will all come together at a point and will bring understanding. Lilly is human; lives alone with her mother in a small town called Moldy Edge that was close to the to the what was once the great town called Albrinth. The whole area was pretty much destroyed in the great war but It still had the castle there but half of it had been demolished the rest stood strong and healthy. It was in the court yard where they practice and trained to become one of the king’s guard. Lilly was the only girl in the group of trainees but she knew that if she made the Kings Guard and their lives would be so much easier. Unfortunately she was the only girl to be trainee and was looked down upon. The other guys would beat her in hand to hand combat and didn’t pull back on their pouches. They would knock her down but she would just keep getting up. The instructor hated her the most being there. Instead of noticing the others knocking her down out of formation he would always verbally attack her. Then one day she notice a hooded stranger stating a ways off with the other spectators. This day they were let go early to come back after nightfall to train again. As she was packing up when the hooded stranger came up to asking her questions and eventually asking her to a duel. If he won she owed him a favor, if she won he owed her a favor. Of course he won. Before she knew it there was a rag over her face, and her life is forever changed. Lilly is such a strong character where as she is a fighter in every since of the word. She is also passionate and caring; but that doesn’t come out at first after she finds out why she was brought into Werewolf territory. And what is this about this stone of called the Obsidian. Why is it so important to Ryker the werewolf that kidnapped her and Prince Balthen who want her to train and fight in once in a century tournament to win the thing.
Book 3 – ONE GIRL FIVE HUNGRY BEAST
I think that if I were to compare this book to some of the other books similar to this I would have to say that I could really understand the main character Martha and even feel strong emotions for her. She was brought up knowing that she was to be a sacrifice for the Werewolves but the only thing that they really knew that the women never returned. So her village decided that women were taken and eaten in exchange for things that their village would need to prosper. She was the first; first born female in over a decade and her village was very poor. However the way that they treated her growing up was deplorable. The fear and hurt that she suffered on her twentieth birthday was unimaginable. Then to find herself thrown into a world that she didn’t know or understand. How was she going to adjust to the difference or would she be able too. She had the choose five men that she didn’t know to be her possible husbands. She didn’t know what to think. She had one of the werewolves that was female Kirela choose for her the men that would be for her. She didn’t know any of them but she knew that Kirela did. So she found herself with the five. Thyrius, Merric, Ronther, Tormod, and Wulfrun. Though she didn’t recognize him Wulfrun was one of the werewolves that had picked her up at the sacrifice platform at her villages. Now she was to go to the University to learn, go home to these five men that sometimes fought viciously and were terribly jealous of each other. She had never been with a man before much less seen one naked. The worst part for her I think is that she didn’t know what it was like to be loved. Now you must be wondering about that. How she could grow up in a village with her parents and siblings but not know what it is like to be loved. To find out all these things and to see how this young woman finds the way to not only know that it is okay to be loved and to love back will have to be read. This is a really good book one I think you will enjoy reading. There are sexual parts to that which you will need to be aware of if this is not the thing for you. But the main plot of this story is really good and it shows how wounded hearts can heal.

Richard, Tarren, and Emma Two totally different dragons and an Immune? The immune is new to me. Haven’t read that many dragon books, but this one was really good. The story line and characters were very original to me. These three were hot together.
(Branded by The Black Wolves) Wasn’t what I expected. It was better. The heroine, Lily, is feisty, and not just determined and strong-willed. She is relentless in her journey to become a warrior. This was a great story with a wonderful ending.
(One Girl Five Hungry Beasts) Another very original story in this three book set. They were all so different, which is great. Kinda like Martha’s men! Talk about a woman being able to have it all! And it even made me cry!
In all, this is a great set of stories that are all very original and hot!

This collection contains: 1 - Seducing Two Serial Killers 2 - Branded by the Black Wolves 3 - One Girl Five Hungry Beasts If you haven't read any of Hollie Hutchins books, this is an excellent collection to start with. All are part of her Sci-fi, shifter genre and will keep you entertained, enthralled, and on the edge of your seat. Her stories are well told with characters that fully developed with enough personality flaws that make them relatable. Oh, and they're each filled with the steamy chemistry that makes any good sci-fi paranormal read tantalizing. I received a free copy of this ARC via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
There is about a week of adult reading in this trilogy embracing weredragons and werewolves, although the middle book, Branded by the Black Wolves, tends to be steamier than necessary, in my opinion.

Each book is very creative AND I didn’t notice one error!! Way to go Proofers!! I was delighted to find that not one book was at all like any other. Well worth the price if you’re not on the monthly plan and as much as I read I’m saving money this way.
