Fate's Bite #4
Half Truths: Now
Isabella
I've lied to those I love the most.
I'm the keeper of all secrets, but I've broken that trust. I don't know if they'll ever forgive me, but what I've done, I did out of love and loyalty.
To my family. To my mate.
To the little one, I dream of every night . . .
Xadiel
Everyone has secrets.
Some are harder to hide than others, and yet, I see the strain in her eyes. I feel the hopelessness in her soul but have kept my promise to let fate run its course. Even when the animal within demands to take control—to fight and be her protector—when it’s against herself she needs saving from.
But then she disappears. Is taken.
I’M A BEAST.
UNTAMED.
WILD.
And I’m coming for what is mine.

This is the 4th book in the series and the second book in a duet about Isabella and Xadiel story.
He's a shifter, a wild beast that loves nothing more than his mate and his werewolf family.
She's a witch who will do everything for her mate, but also for her family.
Their family is a pack of werewolves, coven of witches, and a whole kingdom of vampires.
Yes, this book has a lot of potential deadly creature, that are bound by love to their mates and families.
The story is a wild, action-packed rollercoaster of brutal events in a brutal world of power-hungry fae king.
But the main topic of this book is the endless, unconditional love between the main characters.
It's a damn scorching hot story. Gosh, the steam level is definitely over the top. Let's just say a wolf is something else when it comes to erotic scenes 😉

This is the final chapter in Isabella and Xadiel's story and the next book in the running saga
We were last left hanging by our nails on the edge of a dark misty cliff at the end of Then -
I did go back and reread the last few chapters to get back into the storyline and get a grasp on the cast
There is a lot of moving parts here
Now focused on Isabella and Xadiel -
How their relationship was developing -
How his pack and the others were adapting to their Luna being a Witch. The fear of what lay ahead for their people(s)
As well as coming to terms with the events of their past
The time has come for Isabella to fulfill her destiny and her unwavering faith in Xadiel is what makes it possible for her to take the risk -
Xadiel is so head over heels for Isabella. Yes, it goes both ways but his love for her just bleeds from the pages and you know he will not let her die
She is his and he is coming for her
M is returning
A certain King is making his move
And the Gods have had enough
This was very high heat and lots of smexy compared to book one.
The action is not until the last third of the book but there is plenty going on. Lots of little breadcrumbs scattered about. Some leading us towards the future, and some towards reveals that left me questioning what I thought previously (trying to do this without giving away anything)
Hints -
Not sure how they are going to make this up to him
Or ferret her out without backlash
We also picked up some new prospective mates and disposed of some villainous entities
You do need to read the previous book prior to this one
I highly recommend this series for those who enjoy erotic paranormal romantic suspense reads. Looking forward to the next release.

Thank you for the ARC. Which by the way i didn’t know was coming.
This is the second part to the half truths since I wasn’t paying attention really I had forgotten that it left us on a cliffhanger so when I started reading I was like hold up wait a minute this couple sound familiar and I had to go back and check the other books and confirm that yes I had read about them before and than I realized that yes indeed it was the second part of their story. So anyways we finally get to see what happens with the King fae and we know more about the sisters and their magic and we learn who is the mate of Isabella’s brother which is a shock to me can’t wait to see how that goes. There’s really not much to say without there being spoilers it’s pretty much straight forward not much action or fighting going on it’s good anyways I liked the book and I hope you guys like it to and like i said can’t wait for Leo’s story and where that takes us.

Half Truths Now is the second part of Isa and Xadiel’s story that began in Half Truths Then and despite opening with a rather ominous prologue I’d say this book is probably a good 90% purely based on the love story between the hero and heroine albeit it one set against the ever present threat of the Fae king. I can remember saying that the steam factor in the first book was low level. Well Elena M Reyes definitely turned up the pressure here with sex scenes galore that made me blush at a couple of points and just saying they must be double jointed to make it work given that Xadiel is seven feet tall…… guess it must be witchcraft!
With fantastic characters and an overall plot that has arc’d across the Fate’s Bite series before reaching a suitably dramatic conclusion here and also setting the scene for the next book, I’m glad to say we haven’t heard the last of these characters

Half Truths: Now by Elena M. Reyes is book 4 in the Fate's Bite Series. This is a interconnection series but to fully enjoy this book you should read the previous book "Half Truths Then" that started the story of Isabella and Xadiel. I have really been enjoying the series and falling in love with the characters each passing page. I really hope to read more from this series and author.

I have so enjoyed this series by Elena Reyes about the witch twins Gabriella and Isabella Moore. It has covered centuries as they battle the evil dark fae who wish to claim their power for their own. They have been subjected to multiple betrayals yet have come through the other side, and their family's story is not quite finished.
The story moves at a beautiful pace and keeps you interested. The magic system and interwoven storyline flow wonderfully. I have one complaint about this book, and I can't believe I am saying this, but there was just so much sex. In fact, there were several times I felt the addition of another sex scene detracted from what the characters should be doing or preparing for. This is just my opinion; others may find it spicy and enticing. I found it distracting and began skimming over them just to get to the next bit of highly anticipated move in the storyline.
The Moore family has made many sacrifices, but they've used their powers for good and to protect others even when those around them did not understand. This story has been engrossing, and I am thankful there is one more Moore story to tell, Leo Moore, the twin's younger brother. Thankfully, we can now enjoy the long-awaited joy for both Isabella and Xadiel. I highly recommend this series for all those who love fantasy.

What a rollercoaster of emotions this book/duet takes you on.
I was obsessed with Xadiel from book one but I love that in this one you see more of his loving, protective side. You see how much he cares for his Little Moon, how much he cares for his Pack, for his family. He is honestly so hot and I love him.
Isabella has always carried the weight of the world on her shoulders. It’s nice to see her so loved and cared for in this book. I loved that she gets reunited with all her siblings. I love how the pack accepts and loves her so much.
I have laughed, cried, screamed and gotten so pissed during this book. These characters will always have a special place in my heart and I will always love them.
I’m so proud of Elena, this book, and this whole series is fantastic. Her attention to detail to build this world and these characters is amazing. She was born to write PNR.

Listen, I can already see the reviews where people will complain about how much spice there is in this book. Just remember, Isabella and Xadiel are fated mates and they are not shy about how much they desire one another, so you've been warned.
I'm really looking forward to the next book in this series.
Isabella has been the keeper of secrets, not sharing with everyone the full details of the prophecy she learned years ago. She did it out of love and loyalty but she also knows it's broken trust with many people in her life.
Xadiel sees the strain of all this. He's promised to let fate run its course even if it goes against his better judgment.
When she disappears without a trace, his beast is determined to find her.
Knowing Xadiel will come for what is his helps Isabella endure her captivity.
Thank you so much to the author and Grey's PR for this ARC to review.

Finally getting the happy reunion you been dieing for and acceptance from someone you didn't even know you needed

HT: Now is the conclusion to Isabella&Xadiel’s love story. If I could sum up this book in one word it would be: Raw. The entire thing from start to finish. Xadiel’s beast&bond create such a passionate love story for the witch that stole his heart. &Isa definitely loves him back twice as hard.
This story was full of heat (see what I did there 👀) , compassion& tons of little surprises. As well as anguish&want, for a past they can’t change and a future that even a seer couldn’t predict. I’m not gonna say that I didn’t tear up a few times but uhhh… I may have. 😂
I’m telling you guys, if you haven’t started the Fate’s Bite series yet you are missing out! 👏🏽

I loved this duet!
Even while dealing with before, during, and after surgery, I still tried my hardest to finish this book.
I never like to leave a book DNF.
And Half Truths: Now, that was worth it.
The heat was turned all the way up in this book. If I had the energy, I would have had a cool shower.🚿
Xadiel and Isabella were on fire.
The whole story and intense passionate connection between The King and His mate. Gah, I just loved them.
The story as a whole was intriguing, suspenseful, and definitely had me hooked.
I'm so happy there will be another story coming with Leo's book. 👏

Such a beautiful conclusion to Isabella and Xadiel’s story.
I love Elena’s writing because you can truly feel everything.
The love Xadiel has for his ‘Little Moon’ is so special. He will do anything and everything to protect her.
Isabella is the most selfless person and I love how she will do what she has to for the good of her family and pack.
I loved the spice, the characters and the world that Elena created. I can’t wait to read what’s next!

Half Truths, Now by Elena M. Reyes is the conclusion to the story of Xadiel and Isabella (Little Moon). Isabella is a witch and a seer. Xadiel is the werewolf King.
Their ongoing relationship could end tragically. Outside forces can still completely destroy them…and their pack. Things are about to merge into a thunderous battle…good story!

Half Truths:Now is the second and final part to Isabella and Xadiel's story. If you haven't read Half Truths: Then, read that before this one. I have been waiting for this book and was not disappointed. The sacrifices that Isabella made and her strength made me love this book more. I can't wait to see what's next.
March 26, 2023
For me, this book sadly was a DNF at about 65%. I just couldn't get into the story it was a little slow which is disappointing because I usually like these types of books. I will have to come back to this book in the near future and see if I still feel the same way.

An EPIC conclusion to Xadiel and Isa's story
“PACK IS FAMILY. PACK IS SACRED.”
“By pact and blood.” “We are one.”
Half Truths: Now by Elena M Reyes... a million stars! Just like all of her other books, Half Truths: Now, doesn't disappoint.
Xadiel and Isabella are mates (The Alpha King and little moon) and they will prove love conquers all; in their world anyways!
We see a more loving, caring and possessive side of our king Xadiel.
Isa has her secrets and sees things she doesn't want but knows needs to happen for her to get her HEA....
Their story has all the feels. While reading this phenomenal story; I cried, laughed, screamed, cursed and be prepared for some steamy and rough moments!
Story is beautifully written (the whole series) with drama, suspense and angst...it's a page turner for sure.
Elena is my favorite author and I love her writing! She's also an amazing person!
Definitely recommend this series...especially if you love wolves, witches and vampires...
Start with book 1 Little Lies to get to know who is who and what their roles are....
"I'm the keeper of all secrets, and when the time comes, I don't know if they'll ever forgive me. But what must be done, I'll do out of love and loyalty. To my family. To my mate. To the little one, I dream of every night."

I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie's Book Reports.
This book continues the story of Isabella and Xadiel. I loved that in this book we got to see a side of Xadiel that we had never seen before. The man is all alpha, fierce, and super protective. There is no doubt that these two are fated mates and this book has some serious spicy moments in it. As we know Isabella has been keeping a huge secret or I could say she is the keeper of secrets. She has never told anyone what the details are of the prophecy she learned years ago. She has alot of people in her life that have broken trust with her and Isabella values trust, love and loyalty. She just never thought she would disappear without a trace and this even cause Xaadiel to release his beast to find her. He knew that letting fate run it's course could come with nothing good because of the feeling he had about it. This is a good read and I don't usually read paranormal books. But I really am loving this series.

I have to be honest, I'm not big into shifter romance, but I have to say, I'm totally addicted to Elena M. Reyes' Fate's Bite series for real. I will say this...YOU MUST READ Half Truths: Then before you take on Xadiel & Isabella's conclusion here. There are a lot of things going on in this book as Isabella has a great big test in front of her before she can live her happily ever after, and it's seriously dangerous that's for sure. Her gift lets her know what the future holds so it can be a burden at times since her DNA makeup is to take care of everyone before herself. She's tough & will do anything, and I mean anything to protect her loved ones so in my eyes, she was FANTASTIC! It's also hard to keep things away from her mate, Xadiel, as they can talk through their minds. The twists are coming in so hot it kept my head spinning while keeping me on my toes the whole way through. There's action in the paranormal world, tons of heat, and a great supporting cast so I'm super glad I decided to go in this direction with my reading! HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

"Her heart is pure and doesn’t hold grudges. Her soul recognizes mine and accepts me as I am."
Isabella and Xadiel are just perfect. I love that their story continued in this book, but it felt a lot slower paced than the others. I think because the plot wasn't a main one in the other and it didn't feel as fleshed out. There were some things I absolutely loved and things that just made me go ehhh.
"Because life isn’t always easy, yet there’s no doubt in my mind this is where I’ll always belong."
As I came to the end of the story, I'm just so happy for Isabella and Xadiel. Actually, I'm happy for all of them. Although Leo needs his story told. The end of Isabella's story is bittersweet, but they deserve their happy ending. It was hard won.

Steamy, heartfelt and emotional, Half Truths: Now had me under it's charm.
Even though it started with an ominous prologue that, combined with the last book's cliffhanger ending had a feeling of foreboding coursing through my veins, I absolutely loved getting this beautiful glimpse into Xadiel and Isa's relationship. The strength of their bond and love for each other is mesmerizing and their devotion and passion to their people and their partner is heartwarming and heat inducing. With some dark twists and a long brewing showdown, this culmination to their story will have your blood pumping and emotions flowing.

excellent read
the final book of Xiadle and Isa was written so well that I read it in one day
the story is filled with mystery, magic,betrayal and the strong connection between the two of them is filled with so much love including incredible sexual intimacy and pleasure. Xaidel will kill anyone who puts his luna in danger and he isn't mild in the killing

Oh, guys, I've been having some issues these last weeks and my mind was all over the place.
My only escape is books and the need to dig into them is insane.
When Elena M. Reyes told me that her next book was ready to be devoured I was on cloud nine.
It was amazing to witness the creative process, and each time a new chapter arrived, I would read it until I couldn't keep my eyes open.
That's the effect this author has on me.
Elena's writing is unique, intense, and raw, with a touch of darkness and hotness into the mix.
Just the way I like it.
Half Truths: Now is her latest release and it's the fourth book from the Fate's Bite series. This book keeps exploring the lives of Isa and Xadiel.
Guys, I advise you to read this series from the beginning. You'll have important information in each book, but if you can't or don't want to, a shame if you ask me, to read Half Truths: Then, this book is very important.
As you know, these two are mates. They live and breathe for each other and their bond is unbroken.
When the need to protect makes you hide the truth from your loved ones...
My heart is so full right now that I think it might burst...
This book was so freaking good and I'm a bit sad it's over.
Superb plot, well written, super engaging, intense, and hot... Oh so hot...
The chemistry between the characters is so strong that you can actually feel it.
Their lives is unique and you will fall in love with them all over again.
I loved the fact that all the questions I had from the previous books, were answered, but new questions appeared...
This book gave us love, loyalty, desire, and family bonds as well as crime, punishment, and betrayal.
How can you betray your own family in name of power?
How can you do that?
I loved this book so much that once I started to read it it was impossible to put it down.
I was taking all of my free time to read for a bit and was almost insane when I had to stop to sleep, or eat, or whatever...
Who would have thought that I would be head over heels in love with a paranormal series...
You were able to do it Elena and I'm in love with this series.
I love Theo and Gabby, love Isa and Xadiel, and am I sensing Anaya and Leo?
Please say yes...
Another masterpiece hun. Loved it. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

"I'm the keeper of all secrets, and when the time comes, I don't know if they'll ever forgive me. But what must be done, I'll do out of love and loyalty. To my family. To my mate. To the little one, I dream of every night."
This series has a hold on me! This is the second book for Isabella and Xadiel and I love where Elena went with this storyline. If you like MMCs that will literally do anything for their woman and fierce and capable FMCs that can stand beside their man and hold their own against those seeking to do them harm, then this series is for you.
What to expect:
*Anti-Hero
*Strong & Fierce FMC
*Dark/Paranormal Romance
*Fated Mates
The bond that these two have is exactly what I want to see between mates. Isabella is so much more than what most see her as. They have no idea the amount of pressure and weight that she carries, and the choices she has to make to keep those that she loves safe.
"The path to happiness is paved with tears, but the destination is blessed."
Xadiel sees and feels Isabella's turmoil, and the amount of love and passion he has for her is so heartwarming. He is 100% the type of alpha male that makes me swoon. He will destroy anyone who dares to harm his mate and I am all for that!
"I'm coming for what's mine."

Gran cierre para la historia de Xadiel y Isa. Me gusto mucho como son ellos dos como pareja y se puede sentir el amor y devoción que se tienen uno al otro en las páginas. Solontengo un pero.... Aunque me encanto en general la historia el mayor conflicto que se tenía dentro de estos 4 libros (Gabby + Theo primeros 2 libros) y los siguientes 2 libros que cubren a esta pareja.
El villano King Larue el cual nos empieza a contar desde el primer libro y conforme vamos avanzando en la historia nos cuenta el poder que tiene y lo que realmente quiere.
Sentí la batalla final muy apresurada apareciendo hasta el 70% del libro. En lo particular me hubiera gustado leer más desarrollada la parte en que Xadiel junta a su gente (manada), la ayuda de Theo y Gabriella que como nos relatan en libros anteriores son personajes muy poderosos siento que hubiera aprovechado para hacerlos lucir. Y me quede con la duda de como consiguieron la ayuda de los Fae se que oponían al reinado del rey Larue.
Ahora quedare al pendiente de que tipo de historia nos mostrara para Leo y Anaya que no dudo que me encantara. 😊
