City Heat #1
Howling
A City Heat Mpreg Romance.
In the city of Detroit, everyone is either an alpha, beta, or omega. That includes Leland and his boss, Nicholas. The only difference is that they’re not quite human, and shifters have troubles no one else can understand.
Nicholas needs someone to pretend to be his fiance so he doesn’t have to enter into an arranged marriage. Leland could use the money his boss is offering for the task. It would just take one weekend, one little deception, and then everything would go back to normal.
Lies grow and sparks fly until Leland isn’t sure what’s real and what’s acting. Their animals keep screaming they’re fated mates, but could that be true? And will going through with this farce ruin everything they’ve built over the years?
Howling is book 1 in the City Heat Mpreg series. They can be read as standalones with the occasional character making an appearance in other books of the series. Howling is full of sweet moments, a sassy Siberian Tiger, and a very annoyed wolf.

Ha, that was fun. Good-humored people and a not too heavy content made this just the right read after reading a heavy story. It came just at the right moment.
Leland is Nicholas his PA and they work with each other for over five years.
They will visit Nicholas’ family and pretend they are engaged.
But Leland’s tiger and Nicholas’ wolf already know they are mates. It just takes a rut and a family party to push them together forever.
A lovely shifter, mpreg story, entertaining and enjoyable.

Howling is the first book in A City Heat series by Skyler Snow. This book is about Leland and his boss, Nicholas. I really liked their story. Leland and Nicholas were so good together.

This is book 1 in the City Heat Mpreg series, and can be read as a standalone.
This was a sweet shifter romance featuring fake dating and an opposites attract and fated mates.
I absolutely loved Leland and Nicholas, their chemistry was off the charts and they fit so well together.
I don't usually like mpreg, but this one was done so well and pulled me in from the very first page.
The world building was unique and refreshing and the characters were well fleshed out.
I pulled an all nighter on this one, and so didn't regret it.
A definite recommend if you like shifters and fated mates.

Loved this couple
Oh my gosh I love Leland. He is so entertaining and I love the relationship between him and Nicholas. You could definitely feel the chemistry from the beginning so you were rooting for them. I love the pretend marriage aspect of the book those are normally pretty fun to watch how they unfold and this one definitely was.
This book features a strong and sassy omega and the alpha that absolutely loves it.

You know what ? Hell yeah ,
This book was omegaverse X shifters with a tiger omega and a wolf alpha . I loved every second and I adore the fact that it’s a short book so there is literally no point to miscommunication trope which leads to happy ending and happy me .
To the author, this book was an acceleration of so many beautiful Micro tropes and i am forever thankful ❤️

In Detroit, everyone is either alpha, beta or omega including omega Leland and his boss alpha Nicholas who are also shifters. Nicholas needs someone to pretend to be his fiance so he doesn't have to enter into an arranged marriage and Leland could use the money his boss is offering so one weekend, one deception and then everything can go back to normal. With all of the lies, Leland finds himself wondering what is real and what is acting and their animals keep screaming that they are fated mates but they aren't sure if that is true or not. Will going through with this farce ruin everything they’ve built over the years?
I enjoyed this story with the two men who were so determined to keep their relationship at work in a good state that they ignored the attraction between them and their animals. I loved that they were both very respectful of each other and that they were determined to not damage their friendship. That Nicholas spoke out to protect Leland was a wonderful thing to see and showed that he would do anything to protect his alpha. Easy to read, feel and understand. This was an MM story with mature content and is set in the omegaverse including mpreg.

When a fake engagement turns real the fun begins.
OMG this book is great! From Detroit to the U.P. this book sparkles. Nicholas & Leland are so fated, even if wolves usually don't mate tigers. This story is funny, poignant, sexy, and somewhat frantic. Oh, and then there's the pushy mother trying to marry off her son, a fake engagement that turns out to be all too real, the whole slightly crazy idea of marrying the boss, and a baby. You are gonna love this book!

Howling by Skyler Snow is the first book in the City Heat Mpreg series. This is a sweet, steamy and fun mpreg romance with friends to lovers, fake relationship themes. I loved Nicholas and Leland together and had such a great time reading their story. Sweet moments, steamy connections, funny interactions - this book is great! I found a new series I am excited to read!
I was able to read an advanced copy of this title and am reviewing voluntarily and honestly my own thoughts, opinion and reactions based on that copy.

Nicholas is Leand's boss and needs the biggest favour from him and that is to pretend to date him so his mum gets off his back and stops trying to marry him off. Things take a steamy turn when they get their stories straight and feelings develop into something more. The world is literally screaming the truth at them but they don't believe in the truth and things could get ugly if they don't realise what fate has in store for them, will they lose each other before realisation sets in ? A sweet and refreshing start to a brand new series.

I purchased this book because of the amazing reviews on Amazon and oh boy, they were all right. Such a good book with great characters that keeps you obsessed with every page since the first one. I couldn't put this down until I ended. This is the first book I read from this author and will definitely wont be the last. This love story is beautifull and so well writen, I was on a roaller coaster of emotions and I loved it! Totally recommended to every romance lover!

This was such a cute and entertaining read. Leland was a snarky tiger shifter who fell in love with his boss, Nicholas (wolf shifter). They both had feelings for each other which they definitely tried to deny, but once Leland pretended to be his mate and fool Nicolas's family, the truth of their love had finally become a reality. This was absolutely delightful with such engaging characters and a very beautiful ending.

Leyland and Nick had a beautiful spark and their attraction burned through the pages.
I found Leyland’s mischievous side rather entertaining even though it was at Nick’s expense.
Great book, I really enjoyed it.

This was such a wonderful story I read it in one sitting. I enjoyed how Leland and Nick were together and the storyline of them coming together even though they already had feelings for one another. I loved Leland's sassy and snarky side, it brought more life to the story.
I definitely recommend this book, this was a wonderful read.

I really fell for this sweet couple. Leland’s snark was epic and I loved growly Nick. The fake fiancé, one bed, forced proximity was all great but I loved that it was more the result of 5 years of denying what they truly wanted and finally opening their eyes to reality. I was glad it wasn’t an instant love. Great start to this series.

Great read
This was a good quick read. Leland was definitely a handful and very different than the normal omega with his sass, feistiness, and sense of humor. Nicky was a good Alpha that needed to realize what he felt was actually love and to listen to his wolf. I'll definitely be reading the next in this series.

This was the start of a new series and combines some of my favorite tropes, fake relationships, falling in love with the boss, and mpreg. The characters had great chemistry together and the author does some great world building. Can’t wait for the next book.

This was an enjoyable story. Leland and Nicholas have been longing for each other for years and Leland helping Nicholas deter his mother just jump starts everything. I loved how sweet Nicholas was with Leland even before everything was real. This was a nice sweet story and I look forward to reading more from this series.
