Vexing Your Mate

Rate this book
Bain’s an ornery buffalo shifter.
With a human for a mate. What kind of Chimera gets so desperate that he has to hire his mate's company just to meet her? Apparently, his kind.
Lia is an event planner, struggling to start a company.
She doesn’t want nor need a man right now. Although…a girl can appreciate a sexy hunk of muscles when she sees it, right? Due to her past, however, she only wants to look, not touch.
Her mate has other ideas.

Alpha male meets scared fated mate. What will Bain do to convince Lia she is safe with him?

HEA, No cheating.

Mom, wife, fur baby mom. Various and assorted jobs and volunteer jobs = Me.
I am the person that goes into the grocery store leaving with a cartload of stuff but missing the one item they came in for. I am that person that frequently loses their coffee mug somewhere around the house. (Yes, I reheat it a lot). Yes, I am the absent-minded professor. A science prof, that's me.

My problem...I am interested in everything! Different people, different cultures, different places, different fields of knowledge fascinate me.

My mind is constantly saying--What if?

I have innumerable worlds and characters floating around in my head and I can't wait to share them with you! I have always loved the paranormal, fantasy and sci-fi genres in movies and books. So, naturally, that is what I write hot, steamy novels with shapeshifters or with aliens beaming down to Earth (hint, hint--coming soon)

And, of course, always with a happy ending!

Cause life's too short to be unhappy for long. )

I won this from a giveaway on Goodreads and this is my honest review.

This is a novella on shape shifters, Chimeras and finding their lifetime mates. This story was hot and steamy but with sweet and funny moments. This is my first time reading this author. I recommend this author for a quick and steamy read for adults.

A short novel of around 100 pages, it definitely has sexy down. However, parts of the book were hard to read with the sentence flow and some grammar issues.

I appreciate the chance to read this book for free through Goodreads Giveaways and thank the author for sending me her e-book.

Another sexy lust story. Buffalo Bain, Sniper Eli's spotter, finds his mate, event planner, Lia, but she is afraid of him. How will he get her past her fear into his arms?

Actually I finished Outfox Your Mate earlier this week and it was surprisingly similar to Vexing Your Mate. Even some of the sex scenes seemed similar though the settings and lovers were different. So I recommend that you don't read these books back-to-back so you can appreciate each sexy story.

With-reservations:
sexual situations, attempted rape, violence, polygamy

ONE SWEETLY TANTALIZING TREAT!!!
Exceptional! Sara lays it all on the line, loaded for bear and packing a punch, bestowing all the drama, intrigue, chaos, shenanigans, compelling storyline and enticing plot bursts this baby to life spectacularly. A raging vortex of sensual mishaps and enticing circumstances, kick this baby into a swirling tempest, blowing it into a hissy with a prize winning, mind-blowing culmination. Satisfaction rocks this jewel, bringing it home with such intensity and precision, riding roughshod and delivering one chart topping piece of perfection, meshing this glittering gem together sleek, shiny and tight. Observing the instant realization and charged atmosphere along with electrifying twists, shocking turns and stunning lines, tempting our characters in ways they could have never anticipated. The attraction and chemistry sizzles through the pages, alluring and mesmerizing, grounding in it's strength and awe-inspiring in it's depth. The characters are authentic and realistic with depth and qualities that transform into outstanding personalities. The scenes are strikingly sharp with abundant details and descriptions creating a colorful backdrop that makes the storyline pop. Fantastic job Sara, thanks for sharing this bad boy with us.

Alrighty, here is the deal with this book.

Like i said in my review for the preceding story Outfox Your Mate, this type of book is not my go to. However, I will say that the story itself was rather interesting. It was a different world and a different set of characters than i am typically used to. Going into these books, I was expecting the "sexy" scenes but I was not prepared for how detailed they were nor the amount of times they appear. In Vexing Your Mate, you see less than the first book which made it easier for me to continue reading.

With that said, I still will no be rating this book very high or picking up any romances any time soon. It's just not for me.

**I won this novella (short story)(Kindle version) from a giveaway on GoodReads and was asked for an honest review**

This novella (short story) is #2 in the series, "Chimeric Mates" by author; Sara Spark. This is my first read by this author. This novella (short story) is based on Chimeras (shape shifters) and connecting with their mates. This novella (short story) made me chuckle throughout the story quite a bit. There were definitely some hot and steamy scenes and the tender moments were just sweet. I would recommend this series and author for a quick read (for adults only).

I received a free copy of this book for an honest review. WOW! This one is for adults and did I say WOW. The synopsis of the book is on point. I believe this is my first book I read of Ms. Spark, but it won’t be the last. This quick read is so good. It is a Paranormal romance, but Bain is in a class all by himself. The story pulls you in and doesn’t let go. I didn’t want to put it down (except my blush was showing). I don’t want to give anything away, so just buy it and read it, you won’t be disappointed.

Another wonderful instillation in this awesome series. This story is hot, hot, hot but also has a tender side. It shows that even if you're ginormous in size and strength, you can still show restraint and be gentle( when it's called for). Will be waiting impatiently for the next one …….

Hawt! Sex on a stick 😉

I don’t like to give spoilers on the books that I read. I believe the blurb on the back is enough for you to decide if you will read the book or not. If you choose to read, enjoy!

Delightful

Trauma is the past and future but it is a workable process and the future is made of love...but revenge is best served with make up sex on the side
