A long awaited return to Alaska.
I absolutely adored the original Bite And Release since it was first released and it’s follow up, Bite and Release 2 really completed the story about the depth of love that Ryan and Shea have for each other. These two books were compelling yet heart-breaking reading. Shea’s tormented upbringing at the hands of his father is not something that he talked about with their children, nor is the extent to which he slept around since the age of 13 or his reputation as a manwhore in their local town in Alaska.
In contrast, Bite and Release 3, Riley’s story is a little less intense, yet every bit as addictive to read as I wanted to find out about where Ryan and Shea were at, and what their son Riley, at 20 was up to.
Riley doesn’t want to become his father, or repeat his father’s mistakes. In fact I was surprised at how far he went in his absolute refusal to not become his father – holy crap! As a trainee vet working towards being fully licensed, Riley requires the supervision of a qualified vet until he finishes school, so when Ryan and Shea look at relocating themselves from freezing Alaska to Sunny Florida, Shea employs Dr Gabe Tobin who has a stellar resume and six years of experience.
When Dr Gabrielle Tobin arrives, the chemistry is off the charts between them, and Riley can’t believe the attraction that he has towards this woman who has a little more life experience than he has. He’s not quite sure what to make of it, but that’s okay, Gabe is quite forward in her approach in pursuing Riley. At times I felt she was a little persistent in her pursuit, but, as the book moved through, I understood why. And, I have to say there certainly was a plot twist that came out of left field for sure!!!
I have missed Cory Cyr’s writing style, with it’s adventurous, intensely sexy, smouldering chemistry and outrageous dialogue, so to say that I’m rapt she’s back with a book release is an understatement! I recommend this as a 5 Star read, and hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
