Maxey Wizards #2
Lone Wolf
Once the victim of scientific experimentation by the Government Control of Supernatural Activities (GSA), Damon doesn't have a past, and he isn't sure he has a future. He doesn't even know if his ability to change from human to wolf is a virus, or magick. But the instant he lays eyes on the pretty cop from the local police force, he knows he has to learn the secrets of his past before they destroy her future.
Krystal is the best animal cop on the police force, hiding magickal talent beneath layers of excuses and quick thinking. For five years she's tracked Peter Burke, a butcher who steals any form of canine to supplement his dietary needs. The day she saves a wolf from losing his head at the sharp end of an axe, her entire life changes. And then there is Damon, the mysterious, sexy ex-soldier with no memory of his past who awakens fantasies of dark and sensual nights.
But the GSA isn't finished with Damon, and when the shadowy government agency joins forces with Burke, Krystal too finds her life in jeopardy, the target of men and women led by their own desires. Damon and Krystal must work together to stop evil and destroy years of illegal research. But can their budding love survive when experiments distort Damon's shifting skills, creating a monster?

Damon knew his first name. He knew he was a shape shifter. Beyond those two details, his memories were blank...

"Adventure, Suspense, and Romance all woven together with Shifters' Lore and Magickal Wizards!"
Damon doesn't remember his past and his future looks bleak. He can change from a man to a wolf, but he doesn't know if he was born with the ability or if the GSA did some kind of experiment that changed him. He doesn't know whom to trust until he meets Krystal.
Krystal is a cop with magickal abilities, one of them being able to communicate with animals. She's been tracking Peter Burke, a man who steals, tortures and butchers any form of canine for food. When Krystal saves a wolf from this diabolical man, her whole life changes.
The GSA (Government Control of Supernatural Activities) captured Damon once and they are determined to do so again by using any means at their disposal. Burke joins forces with them adding his own personal revenge to the mix.
Damon and Krystal find their attraction to each other moving too fast, but tempering their passion appears to be out of their control. There's a bond, something magical about their attraction. While they figure out what it could be, they decide to work together and destroy the illegal research at GSA, and take down Peter Burke and his evil doings once and for all.
Ms. D'Amario has written a fast-paced and action-packed paranormal that will keep you scrolling down the pages to find out what happens next. The sexual tension between Krystal and Damon is magickal and all so tantalizing. The tale has something for everyone—adventure, suspense, and romance all woven together with shifters' lore and magickal wizards. Her characters come alive, making you care about what happens to them. This is rare talent and proves Ms. D'Amario has a little magic of her own. There were a few teary eyed moments, so be prepared.
This is the second story in the series about the Maxey Wizards. Both tales stand alone, but I feel the reader would also enjoy Tigress by the Tail with Lance (Krystal's brother) and Cassie (were-tiger.) This tale has secrets to solve, suspense and a love story that will leave you panting for more. Both characters make an appearance in Lone Wolf, too.

Him: A male wolf shifter with no memory of his past or how he came to be "this creature." Her: The only girl in a wizarding family. Shut out of the special government agency on paranormal activity by her family, she is a cop with a talent for soothing wild beasts. Together: They take on the evil government agency and a wicked pack of hyenas. Oh, and the sparks do fly!!!
What an excellent follow up book in Ms. D'Amario's Maxey Wizard series! Right from the start, the story grabbed me. I couldn't wait to find out where the plot would twist and turn. The chemistry between the two main characters is fabulous. The story is involving and fun to read. And there are so many little questions left open for the next story... A great overall story arc is in the making.
I highly recommend this story to any fan of the alpha shifter male, or any fan of excellent paranormal romance. The book will hook you in and leave you wanting more!
