Mated for Life #2
Wolf in Heat
What male would be interested in a vegan werewolf?
Heather resigned herself to life without a mate. She's always been a freak, unable to fit into either the human or shifter world. When her broken family joins a new pack, she's suspicious and reluctant to accept her new fate. When David starts showing interest in her, it's hard for her to believe his feelings are genuine. She tries to give him the cold shoulder ... until she goes into heat.
David strikes out time and time again with Heather. The new female in their pack refuses to acknowledge they are meant to be together. He's not one to give up hope, determined to win over the curvy vegan wolf at any cost. When the mating heat takes hold of Heather, he's the only one who can satisfy her. He's ready to give her exactly what she craves, but he wants more than just her body.
When Heather runs into danger, will she accept David's help or sacrifice her own life?

About the author
Sam Crescent
552 books5,505 followersSam Crescent is passionate about fiction. She loves a good erotic romance and so it only made sense for her to spread her wings and start writing. She began writing in 2009 and finally got that first acceptance in 2011 by Total-E-Bound.
She loved creating new characters and delving into the worlds that she creates. When she’s not panicking about a story or arguing with a character, she can be found in her kitchen creating all kinds of havoc. Like her stories the creations in the kitchen can be just as dubious but sometimes things turn out great.

I almost gave up on this book Heather was well a pain in the rear. It got old really quick. David saved this book and kept me reading. He was such a sweet heart and so understanding for a good deal of the book. I might even read the other books in this series.

This book is second in the Mated for Life series. Since a hint about the leads was already given in the first one, I knew what to expect.
This book had a slow start for me and I wasn't expecting much. I understand why Heather was being difficult in the beginning but it irked me when she wasn't ready to heal herself, God-knows-why. I think it has to do something with the mood I was in while reading it. Anyway. Halfway through, the story begins to pace. I liked the second half of the book because there was a certain thrill to it. The brawls, new characters and the mating bond kept me absorbed till the end.
I'll mention one thing about David. His love was so genuine. Not implying Heather was not into it as much as David, but waiting for your person with a bond so strong was pretty impressive. Kudos to him for his patience.
I'm awaiting the next one in the series since I have no idea how it's gonna unfold. Hoping either Brian or Reese find their mate and we get more clarity on Heather's uncle's past.
I'll give it a 3.5!

There was too much going on here and nearly none of it was effectively addressed. First plot line was of a she-wolf with survivors guilt described as PTSD. Well, this story in no way properly described either mental health condition and then basically resolved them both by getting her mated. Yeah because having a mate solves all problems including but not limited to world hunger. Smdh.
The mating heat was described as several different ways. A way for reluctant mates to force a bond or the heat during the full moon. Both of which happened but really didn’t make the bond official as they missed two full moons without there instincts kicking in.
Next plot line, the rogue she-bear. The she-wolf felt such an affinity for the bear but really didn’t do much of anything to help her in her transitions or in adjusting to her new life. So what was the point of all this fuss? It was just a waste of reading time.
Last but certainly not the least ridiculous plot line was the vegan wolf. Seriously!?! I can’t even…. I just don’t have the words to fully express this stupidity.
Good luck.

Making her see
Anytime these two join up the results are phenomenal! I love the way this alpha male doesn’t mind his quirky vegan mate, now if only he can make her believe. The characters were well matched and their interactions were fantastic. I love the heat level, smoking naturally, and the action and danger kept the story moving and entertaining. This book is a wonderful weekend read and I am looking forward to more books by these ladies.

I've only read one other story where the female wolf was vegan. Sam and Stacey writing together is pure pleasure to read!!! The story flows effortlessly and watch Heather and David dance around the relationship was fun to read!!! But can he convince her that they will be together forever? Loved the story and the characters just light up the whole book!

It hadn’t been that long ago Heather lost her parents and even though she was grateful she, her sister and Uncle had been accepted into Caleb and Bethany’s pack it didn’t ease her sense of loss and loneliness much. Heather hated change and the new pack, new home, new surroundings had pushed her as far as she could bear. Accepting David might be her mate was not an option Heather was willing to give time or thought to. Only now she feels she might be entering her heat phase and the full moon is drawing close. Can Heather and David find a way to make this work?
I found this to be a very emotional and highly sexual story. Readers looking for an intense and character driven story should find this really appealing. For the first part of the book, I was at times a little confused with Heather, who really seemed to blow hot and cold to me. I felt a deep empathy for David trying to work out where he stood with Heather. At first he went slow, trying to get to know this shy and timid woman, but then when the heat hit her Heather became this sex-starved she-wolf, but who then once again turned timid and tried to push David away when the heat passed. I thought he clearly showed his love and compassion for her and (particularly at the start of the book) I felt Heather acted a little bit unreasonably toward him. The authors did a good job of explaining what Heather’s feelings were and how/why she was so confused and changeable, but for the first part of the book I struggled to like or connect with her. Pushing someone away while knowing you were mated to them just because you were confused felt pretty silly and childish to me.
I was pretty relieved when Heather finally got her head screwed on right and accepted she was bonded with David. I could appreciate the fact that even though she was scared, she had made her decisions and stuck with it and tried to hold up her end of the relationship and not simply run, avoid or stick her head in the sand about it all.
After this the story moved a lot smoother and better to my mind. There was also a fairly interesting sub-plot revolving around some bear shifters and a rogue. I can totally understand why the authors made this subplot secondary to Heather and David – this is a steamy erotic romance and they’re the main mating pair, but I was pretty pleased that the werebear and other shifters subplot wasn’t just half-baked or added in as a sort of side note. I felt that got plenty of time and was a solid addition to the story. While not overly gory or descriptive there are some captive animals and blood-sport style of humans in the plotline that might not suit the taste of all readers wanting a more romantic/erotic style of story and less intensity to the non-romantic aspects of the plotline.
With a solid cast of interesting and varied secondary characters, a decent plot revolving outside shifters and others around the pack and a steamy mating relationship growing between Heather and David this is a good and solid story that I feel most readers should find something to enjoy within it.

3.5 stars ... David is a great catch! What she put him thru was so bad.

It's been so long since the first book, but I don't think it really matters in continuity. I didn't like our h, period. She wasn't likeable and I could sympathize with her.
