Wolf shifter Kent Benson has a major problem with his twin. No one knows which brother was born first. It’s created lifelong tensions between the siblings for the alpha title. Kent knows he’s the alpha. He can feel it. When a cute little witch comes into the drama, he can’t keep his hands or lips to himself.

Priscilla Maddocks is a lot of things. Witch, paralegal and looking for a whole new life. When Gerri Wilder calls with an interesting job, Priscilla jumps on the new challenge. That’s all great until she meets Kent. The lawyer is smoking hot, bossy, kisses like a dream, and is making wild claims that she’s his mate.

Priscilla’s unsure about using magic to figure out which of the twins is the alpha of the Benson pack, but she’s willing to give it a try. She soon finds out that things aren’t that easy. Betrayal, family secrets, and all kinds of twists and turns might rip these fated mates apart before they even begin their love story. Can the witch cope with a walk on the bite side?

All in the family

This book has it all, a family divided, a woman under appreciated, a meddling mother, and a matchmaker who manages to put it all back together! I love how the author layered this book with the next story, and how she kept the intensity high with the infighting and forbidden romance. The characters are as engaging and entertaining as always, and the story kept me reading until the very last page. This story is a wonderful weekend read and I can’t wait to see what happens next!

Book 44 in PDA series by Milly Taiden
Kent and Jason are the surviving sons of the alpha of the pack when they were born no one was told which son came first and that means know one knows who is the rightful alpha so mum hires of which to try and figure out.
Absolutely love this book really enjoyed the storyline and the betrayal and romance in it definitely one of my favourites so far absolutely love the series even 40 books into it and still keeps it fresh

Never doubt there will be shenanigans when Gerri ask for a meeting...Priscilla and Kent had a lot to deal with from their first meeting but the connection between mates is strong and can't survive any drama..

This is an OK shifter romance, but I did have a few issues with it. It gets 3 stars from me.

It features the typical shifter instalove, but I would have liked a little more backstory on both Priscilla and Kent. I do always like Gerri Wilder and her matchmaking methods, though.

Kent was really hard for me to like. The fact that he would even consider fighting his brother for the position of alpha was unbelievable to me. He knew one of them might have to die, and that it might also start a pack war. I just couldn't like someone who would be willing to sacrifice innocent pack members, and possibly kill his brother, just to become alpha. He did get a little better as the book went on, but still.

I liked Priscilla, but couldn't really see why she cared for Kent -- especially since she didn't understand why he was willing to fight his brother to be pack alpha.

I actually didn't really believe either one of them were in love. They were definitely in lust, but they just didn't know each other well enough to fall in love so quickly.

One complaint is that most of Milly's stories are a bit too explicit for me. I like hot sex in romances, but I would prefer it to be a little less descriptive and dirty. I am not a prude, but the really explicit stuff is just not romantic to me. But I will continue to read Milly's writing, as it is usually entertaining and fun.

My rating system is below.
1 star -- Hated it, or did not finish. I usually only give this rating if some of the content is truly objectionable to me, like if one of the main characters does something really awful, and gets away with it.
2 stars -- Didn't like it. This rating usually means that I thought the writing wasn't very good, the editing was terrible, I didn't like the characters, or it had other major flaws.
3 stars -- I liked it, but had some minor issues with it. This rating means that there were minor editing issues, the story needed more character development, it was just too unrealistic, or had some other fairly minor issue. The majority of books I read get this rating – I do not consider it a bad rating.
4 stars -- I liked it a lot. This is a high rating for me, and I rarely give a higher one.
5 stars -- I loved it, and will probably read it again. Very few books are good enough to get this rating from me. The ones that do are usually classics.

Simply wonderful, captivating read thoroughly enjoyed every moment

This was a simply wonderful addition to this series of books and I hope that you will enjoy every bit of this book as I did whilst reading, I have to be honest and say that once I started, I was unable to put it down until the end

Priscilla is a witch and she Thoroughly hates her present employment and even that is being far too kind about the situation, when she is offered the chance to work at something she knows that she will love she cannot accept quickly enough which is not typically her as she is usually more cautious.

Twins Kent and Jason are always trying to out do the other and it is rather tedious as they continue to do this relentlessly no matter how embarrassing the final result or the risks that are sometimes taken for no reason except arrogance, which is unnecessary as both are brilliant in their own independent way and they are old enough to know better.

I do not want to spoil the read for others but when Kent realises that Priscilla is his Mate he is elated, however the two brothers have been inseparable all of their life, there is a considerable amount of unrest and the couple know that it is not going to be that easy to have a happy relationship if hisw twin is not on board, it would be like chopping off his own right arm.

I assure you that once again like me you will be blown away by Gerri Wilders capers and have to read this wonderful story in one sitting.

On the Bite Side is the 41st book in the Paranormal Dating Agency series. In this book we follow witch Priscilla & wolf shifter Kent as they follow their rocky road to happily ever after.

Priscilla makes her living as a paralegal but would really prefer to be following in her family's footsteps by using her powers to help people. So when Gerri Wilder offers her a chance to do just that, she couldn't turn it down. But that was before she met him.

Kent & his twin have been going head to head ever since he can remember. Both of them think they should be clan alpha but nobody knows who was born first. Kent has kept his head in the game & concentrated on defeating his brother & becoming alpha. That is until his mother sends her their way.

Usually I can dive right into a PDA book & not come up for air until it's done, but this one started a bit slow for me. It took me a while to warm up to the characters & the premise, but once I got a little ways in I was hooked. The plot line was a new twist on a family conflict theme & was really quite interesting once I got going. The heroes were well written & the supporting cast kept the story moving along without overwhelming. All in all, this is a good read for a quiet afternoon.

Wolf shifter Kent Benson has a twin and there is a major problem in their pack as no one knows who was the firstborn. There has always been tension between them as to who was firstborn but since the death of their father, it has reached a crescendo and threatens to split the pack. When a new paralegal arrives at their law firm he finds himself unable to keep his hands and lips to himself. Witch Pricilla Maddocks is a paralegal and Gerri Wilder calls her with a new job which she jumps at which is great until lawyer Kent says she is his mate. The problem is she has a secret additional task - to use magic to work out who is the firstborn but getting the way are some family secrets, betrayal, and some twists and turns that could rip the fated pair apart. Can Pricilla cope with a walk on the bite side?

I enjoyed this story with the jeopardy of the twin brothers, fated mates, family politics, pack politics and at the centre of it all was Kent meeting his fated mate Pricilla. It was a story full of love and how that would set things right in the pack as well as conquer evil. I loved how feisty Pricilla was and how well the two brothers were able to work together in the end. Easy to read and understand. Contains sexual content.

Kent and Jason are twins who have been competing since they were small to see who was to be the next alpha while this is all happening the wolf pack were split down the middle for each brother and war was imminent Joanie their mother was doing what was needed to get her boys situated so she sent for Geri some months earlier. Geri sets to work on this unfamiliar task to help and she has Joanie hire a young paralegal witch to work at the law firm and to use her magic to find who is the true alpha. When Priscilla walks into the conference room on the first day Kent realizes some powerful information but he doesn't tell his brother and they make a pact Jason has his own secrets that come out during their case. All Kent really wants is peace between him and his brother and his mate. A good storyline and the characters are entertaining. Drama, action, romance, love, mystery, betrayal, suspense. I read an ARC via BookFunnel without obligation. I volunteered an honest review.

Loved it! I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. I love to read books from Milly Taiden. On the Bite Side is the next book in the Paranormal Dating Agency series. This is Kent and Priscilla's story. Kent is a lawyer and a wolf shifter that could be the new alpha of his pack but there's one small stag. It could also be his twin. Not sure who was born first. Priscilla is a witch who is works as a paralegal and hates her current place of employment. Kent is also a lawyer too. So when Priscilla joins the company, Kent knows she is his mate. Kent and Priscilla were great together. How can they figure out who is firstborn without a war within the pack? This story is full of drama, action, romance, love, mystery, betrayal, and suspense. I got hooked from the beginning and couldn’t put it down! You HAVE to read this to find out how it works out. Keep up the amazing work! Can't wait to read the next book in this series.

Kent, Priscilla & Jason

A chance to use her witch skills and take on a case that will boost the business she's trying to start. An unusual need. Twin shifters one who will be the next alpha--very soon--that is if they can figure out who is the firstborn. Not an easy task but to prevent a war or splitting of the pack she needs to succeed.

The twins who should be close have always competed with each other. Mom is friends with Gerri Wilder who doesn't know how her match-making skills are supposed to help. Oh, but they will do something since Priscilla happens to be the mate of one of the brothers--now what? The answer is surprises, enemies, rediscovered history, and plenty of steam. Will they do what is right for the pack or will their competitive natures take over and destroy it all?

meh-it was okay

I wanted something light and funny. This was okay, biggest problem was the plot holes & inaccurate legal terminology.
Their cousin was introduced in the beginning then just disappeared. Then their Aunt suddenly didn’t have any children. Jason had a complete attitude change in that middle of the story once his “mate” turned up? That made no sense. And for the love-no one is “guilty” in a civil case!! You have two private law firms representing clients (and yes the actual legal case is flimsy & without a lot of detail) but at least get the simple terminology correct-either one is “liable” or “prevails” but no one is ever “guilty” unless you have the State prosecuting a crime!!
Then you have a DA or Prosecutor and a defense attorney.
It was just so trite-but it’s also book 41 in a match maker series so 🤷🏻‍♀️

expected more

Has potential but poor execution. Ended up just skimming. Reminder to self: don’t expect a good, well thought out and written story that isn’t even 200 pages

SPOILERS
It really seemed like the mains were going to at least attempt to resist the bond but one moment and they both give in like nothing. I’m disappointed there was no build up and chemistry to their relationship. I also didn’t understand why he didn’t just tell Jason about his mate, pointless secrets, esp when Jason gives in quickly to Kent being the alpha, after fighting for the position most their lives.

She is a witch he is a wolf shifter. He is a twin and also inline for alpha but they do not know which twin was born first. Gerri finds her and introduces her to Kents mom who hires her as a paralegal so she can get close to the twins to do a spell to find out who was first born.

The twins should be close but they have been put against each other all their lives when they should have been bonded and work together.

This book has drama, action and of course steam. Great story and characters. I love Gerri.

Kent and Jason are wolf shifters.
They are twins.
Twins with a huge divide between them.
They don't know which twin was born first.
It has caused a rift in their pack with loyalties split for either brother.
Now, the rift has grown deeper with the death of their father, the Alpha.
Their mother takes over in the interim but mom has a plan.
A plan that involves Gerri Wilder.
Enter Priscilla, a witch and Kent's mate.
The question of birth is solved but the situation is far from over.
Kent must be careful with his next steps to prevent war.
I won't spoil the end but I really enjoyed this book.

Wolf & A Witch

What an interesting way to find mates. The pack needed a witch to discover who was truly the Alpha, twins & all who knew? Plus she was a Paralegal & the Law Firm needed her help!

Joanie, Kent & Jason, her twins have been fighting for many years trying to figure out just who was the Alpha of the Benson Pack. It's breaking her heart to see her boys fighting so much. Once their father the Alpha passed, Joanie knew something needed to happen to find the answer. So she contacted Gerri Wilder. The matchmaker could help her, she just knew it!

Thank you Milly! Another wonderful read! Enjoy it!!

Brilliant

On the Bite Side (Paranormal Dating Agency Book 41) by Milly Taiden. Kent and Jason Benson are twins and sons of the alpha. Unfortunately no one knows who was born first. When the alpha dies, his wife takes over until they know who was born first. Joanie, the alphas wife decides to hire a witch to find out by witchcraft who was the first born. Priscilla, the witch, meets Kent and Jason and sparks fly between Priscilla and Kent. There's a very bumpy road in front of them

As always the PDA series doesn't disappoint!! Never a dull moment filled with shenanigans when Gerri is involved. I absolutely loved this book enjoyed the betrayal, forbidden romance, and the intensity high with the infighting between the twins brothers. But there so much more to keep you hooked from beginning to end. I will totally recommend that you one click this read believe me you won't regret it. I received a free copy via Booksprout and as always my reviews are totally voluntarily and no monetary compensation was received and the opinions I have expressed are completely my own.

Kent and Jason, wolf shifter twins, have a problem. One of them is to become the pack alpha and one is not! The problem? Nobody remembers who was born 1st. Both lawyers and ever competitive, their mom, with the help of Gerri, brings in a witch- to use her magic to "see" who was firstborn. But the catch? She's also their shared paralegal......One twin is clearly a leader, without knowing the birth order, and he finds his mate? All bets are off......Another fabulous shifter romance in the PDA series by Milly Taiden!

Jason & Kent are twin brothers but instead of a united front are at loggerheads over who is the Alpha of the pack as no one is quite sure which was born first. When their Mam reaches out to Gerri in search of a Witch she suggests Priscilla. Going in undercover at the family legal firm she is to use her magic to help discover the answer. However when it becomes obvious she is the mate of one of the brothers this complicates matters. With someone working from the inside out to disrupt the pack this storyline is packed full of drama and romance which would definitely recommend downloading.

How many times can I say Milly and Gerri can completely suck you in to a story. Well, they did it again. Kent and Pris were one of the most amazing matches in this series. And there are a lot of books. There is suspense and twists and a whole lot of betrayal. But at the end of the day, love and family will always prevail. I absolutely loved this book and I hope Jason's story is next. Thank you for my advanced copy. This is my voluntary honest review.

I thought this was a fantastic book. I like how there was a pack debate that had been going for years but finally came to a head when the alpha dies. There was these twins fighting for the alpha role and had destroyed their brother love until the end but it all was sorted when they met there mates. It also helped healing the brotherly bond. It was such an enjoyable read.

Only one pet peeve

If you're going to say one thing early in the book (for example a certain character having a child) it's kind of irritating when you say that character has no children towards the end of the same book!

Other than that, it's on par with other books in the series, a good lunch break read without excessive violence/gore, angst etc and as usual a satisfying happily ever after.

Kent Benson is dealing with a lot. Between trying work out with his twin on how best to split the pack and keeping his mother from learning his plans, the last thing he needs is... his mate.
Enter Gerri Wilder working her magic.
Quite a few twists and turns. With all the drama going on, will Priscilla be able to complete the assignment Kent's mother assigned her. I liked how this story worked together.
A fun ride.

Treachery

Kent and Jason have been at war with each other their whole lives over who was the first born twin and the rightful Alpha of their pack. Fed up and not wanting to see the pack split apart and her sons fighting, Joanie calls in Geri Wilder.

Priscilla is hired to figure out which one was the first born. This is complicated by the fact that she is Kent’s fated mate. Even with a clear answer there is treachery afoot.

41 books in and this story is just as good as the first. I cannot even imagine having that many stories to keep up with, I know Ms. Taiden sometimes revisits old couples from previous stories so to keep all that together is amazing. I thought 15 books ago that I would get tired of this series but it just keeps getting better every book. I cannot wait to see how it ends something tells me that the final book will be explosive to say the least.

Omg

This was an amazing book but all of her books are. I can't believe it took a week to settle a dispute between two brothers. This book was a little hard to read it first because of the death of the father and just losing my father recently but I loved him the family finally came together in the end. You're going to love this book yeah I'm off to read the next one cuz it's already out

A female witch and a male wolf shifter!

A female witch is hired by a female wolf shifter to figure out which of two twin wolf shifter brothers was born first since no one could remember. She is also a paralegal and will be working with both brothers on a big case. You will have to read the book to find out what all happens to everyone. There will be magic, fighting a banning from the pack and possibly a death. Happy reading!

There are a lot of twist in the story that needs to be untangled. The story was a bit serious but there was still humor that will bring out a chuckle from you and a sense of satisfaction that it has ended well. Except for that nitty bitty fact that someone died and someone was exiled. Part of being pack, of course.

All in all, it was an enjoyable read.
