Gifts of the Ancients #4
Lightning Strikes
Die Anziehung war unbestreitbar, aber ihr Timing war katastrophal.
Wil und Mandy haben beide Geheimnisse. Wils ist übernatürlich, Mandys ist bodenständiger, aber nicht weniger verheerend. Als sie sich treffen, haben beide ein gemeinsames Ziel – Wils Vater. Mandy war bereit, Wils Vater durch seine letzten Tage zu begleiten, aber Wil hat eine andere Idee im Sinn.
Als die unleugbare Anziehung durch finstere Angriffe und Geister aus Mandys Vergangenheit durchkreuzt wird, müssen sie den Berg verlassen, der Wils Kindheitszuhause war. In der größeren Welt, mit Hilfe eines Teams von gestaltwandelnden Söldnern, entdecken Wil und Mandy die Wahrheit über ihre Feinde, sich selbst und die tief verwurzelte Liebe, die zwischen ihnen erblüht.

Calling the tempest
The single men of this unit are dropping like flies to the joy of mated bliss, and I absolutely love it! This book is another fantastic addition to the series! The newest characters really enhanced the life stories of the men in the unit and I love how Wil was able to connect with Mandy and his dad. This HEA has a slow build that fit perfectly with the story and left me wishing for more. And the action and danger fit in at just the right moment. I can’t wait to see what happens with Doc and Any of the other characters on the island that calls to the author’s muse.

Another good book in the series
I really enjoyed reading this book and getting to see so many new yet also the se characters. This is a good series and another solid read in the series. My only hesitation to giving it 5 starts is that certain scenes seem to not be fully fleshed out and seem to end quickly and pretty conveniently. Not bad at all, just wish there was more in a few places.

Wow lots of surprises
Wow, Wil's read had a lot going on and a lot of reveals. Poor Mandy had no idea what hit her. Hot men with super powers, who could shift into animals and Mages of the dark magic evil kind. She handled it all pretty well. The big shocker was seeing William Senior cured of cancer by Rick. How freaking cool. Seems like this read is setting up something major or maybe not. Can't wait to read Rick's story.

Striking
Even though I accidentally read this book before the first 3 in this part of the series I didn’t feel lost. Mandy secluded herself on the mountain feeling that she could run from her past not realizing that it was not possible. William was dieing and his son Wil came to spend the last days with him. Fate pulls them all together.

It was so cool to see these guys at work. I wish they were real. This book takes you all across the US. This happens after a lot of excitement. The story drew me in wouldn't let go.

Always too short but a fun and sexy read. Wil and Mandy were sweet together and I loved seeing William return to the land of the living. Looking forward to Rick's book next!

Very good! I read this out of order, but the story is a good tie-in for later books

Solid sequel in series
Mandy is a park ranger who gets word to Wil that his father, William, a retired Special Ops sniper and current Park Ranger, is dying. Rick is given the okay to travel with him and aid, if possible, William. Liam is sent as liaison with the local shifters. This book can be read as a stand alone, but it is much better if one is familiar with the prior story lines.
I really enjoy this series. In the Tales of the Were,, Bianca D'Arc is bold about identifying good and evil, and showing us that magic exists but humans cab be pretty special too!
