The Mating Haze (Long Claw Pride) by Brooke May – Review by Kerry Carr

The Mating Haze by Brooke May
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is part of the Long Claw Pride series. I have read previous books by this author and have enjoyed them all and this one was just as good. I love a paranormal romance where the Shifter mates are protective and possessive, where neither one can fight against what they are feeling the connection is that powerful. However this is a mated story with a twist. There is a saying that love in blind and the same is true in the Shifter world except its called the Mating Haze.
When Laramie Mackenzie meets Trigger Bain the Mating call is activated and they realise they are meant to be mates.
Laramie is the sensible one of the pack so it is unlike her to just lose her mind over a guy. However that is what she is doing, not only does she accept her mate she also sees an opportunity to fulfil her dreams when Triggers Step-father offers the opportunity to improve their town, make it more profitable and allow Laramie the chance of having her own store. But when things are too good to be true they normally are this isn’t going to be the perfect dream she is expecting.

Trigger is a Shifter who has grown up in the human world. He has very little experience within a pack and only knows what he has learnt from his mother. He follows his step-father around helping him improve the lives of shifters or so he is told. He trusts his step-father. After everything he’s done raising him why would he lie to him?
When Trigger’s step father realises his fated mate is part of the Long Claw pack he knows he can use this to his advantage.
As Trigger and Laramine try to get used to their bond and learn more about each other they also need to uncover secrets and lies which could destroy their future before it even begins.

This story is action packed with twists and turns that will keep you guessing. There are characters you will love and characters you just don’t trust. The author does an incredible job of writing that allows the reader to picture the scenes in vivid detail as if they are there seeing it with their own eyes.
