A Second Chance (Powder River Pack Series) by Brooke May – Review by Brandy Rymer

A Second ChanceA Second Chance by Brooke May
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first book in the Powder River Pack series, where we are introduced to a group of werewolves and their mates. In this series, only males can be werewolves, but they are mated to females that are regular humans. Derek and Annabelle met while younger and dated for a few years before Annabelle was forced to move due to a bad marriage and her parents getting divorced. Annabelle’s dad seems to have a problem with people, no one seems to make him happy including his daughter and ex-wife. As we progress through the story, we find out why Annabelle’s dad hates Derek, and life in general and takes this anger out on everyone around him. He wants everyone to be miserable just as much as he is and has no problem going to extreme measures to achieve this. This was an amazing first book in this series and introduces a ton of great characters that I am so excited to get to know more in the next books.

This is book 4 of the Powder River Pack series and tells the story of Alexa and Miles. The long wait is finally over, we get to find out why Alexa was so hot and cold towards Miles, and what happened to her in the past that has caused her to be so damaged when it comes to relationships. I loved the drama that this book was filled with and the thrill of trying to figure out who was watching Alexa. The characters were amazing, it was awesome meeting and getting to know the newest characters, and I cannot wait for the next book in the series. I’m excited to see which character’s story will come next.

After a past relationship gone wrong, Alexa does not want to get involved with another shifter. But, fate intervenes when she meets Miles. Miles is a shifter and does not believe the lore of fated mates until he sees Alexa at the bar. While Alexa is battling between her heart and mind when deciding what to do, her past comes back to haunt her. Will Miles be able to find her and keep his mate safe? And will Alexa realizes not everyone is like her ex before it’s too late?!?

I enjoyed this story. I have ready other books by Brooke May and enjoy her writing style. This story had a little twist on your average shifter romance and I found it interesting. I am excited to see what the rest of the series has in store!

Resisting Nature (Powder River Pack Series) by Brooke May

Resisting Nature is the fourth book in the Powder River Pack Series and is a wonderfully written Paranormal Romance that I absolutely loved reading. I’m a huge fan of this author and have read several books by her. I love that no matter what genre she’s writing she pulls you into their world and makes you feel apart of the story. The characters are relatable, fully developed and some are creative. This Paranormal Romance grabbed me from the first page and I literally read this in one sitting because I couldn’t put it down. This is packed with drama, secrets, action, love,alpha shifters , werewolves, pain , hope and so much more. Alexa and Miles, she’s just wanting a fresh start from the mess her life had been in and she wants to be happy so she trying to start over. Can she find the happiness she’s looking for? Miles thinks he’s found his mate until he loses her. Can he show her that they are meant for one another? I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I’m looking forward to reading more from this Author.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Resisting Nature was a really good read. With that being said I really dislike any books about werewolves. It was a bit much for me to read this but, being a huge fan of the author I pushed through.

Alexa was saying a guy named Grant who turned out to be a horrible person. He hurt her and forced her to give up her virginity. She ended up pregnant but knew she had to get away from him because he was dangerous. She ended up giving her baby up for adoption but kept in close contact with the family who know has her son. Alexa moved far away In Hopes that Grant will never find her.

Years later she’s at a bar with her friend and right away there is something between her and the bouncer at the door. They both are drawn to eachother immediately. What Alexa doesn’t know is Miles is somewhat like Grant only he’s not a monster like he was. Miles is loving, caring and sweet. One morning when she wakes up alongside Miles who happened to shift during the night at some point, she is very afraid and decides she can’t do this again.

After a month or so of not talking or seeing eachother they end up talking and trying to work things out when Grant shows up out of the blue. Somehow he finds Alexa and he won’t stop until he has his little family back. Somehow he knows, he has a son somewhere out there.

Will Miles and his pack be able to save Alexa ? Will they be able to make it to find where Grant is hiding her or will Miles lose his mate when he finally just got her back?

If this was written by any other author aside from one I love reading, I may not have been able to finish the book, but I’m a big fan of her writing so I’m glad I was able to finish the book.

I have enjoyed this set of books. Even though it is a series they can all be read on their own. The author has made the characters enjoyable and her writing style makes the story flow so easily that you will get caught up and forget about time. This is book four and is the story of Miles and Alexa. She is running away from an awful situation and hopes the new town and new start will be good. That is until trouble shows up on her door step. Miles, of course, wants nothing more than to love and protect Alexa but she pushes him away. Will Alexa be able to trust Miles?

The Alpha of the Powder Pack, Mason, has resigned himself to a life of raising his son alone. That is until his wolf gets the scent of his mate in his bar, Riley. She is a biologist and has recently returned home hoping to help in the community. Mason of course knows from the first time he lays eyes on her what is happening. Riley on the other hand is not knowledgeable of supernatural beings which may or may not cause problems. The idea of being in insta love due to the Moon Goddess (or any name that the author gives to this unseen character) having chosen someone has always made me kind of skip of that part of the first meeting, but the author made this seem natural. I have really enjoyed her approach and take on this supernatural being. These stories, at least the first two, seem like they can be read as as a stand alone, but I have a feeling we will see some of these characters in future stories. Even if we don’t it is worth it to read them all.

Resisting NatureResisting Nature by Brooke May
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I read a bunch of werewolf stuff. This was a different take on shifters and the shifter-verse. I liked how the young wolves shifted early, around 3 years of age. I was not a fan that only males were shifters. It made the shifter-hound storyline with Thea so easy. Of course even when there are she-wolves, there are those that try to latch on to high ranking wolves. Not the point, the point is that I was not a fan that only men got to be special.

Okay. So our story…..Alexa was seduced then abused by a werewolf. She escaped him after she found out she was pregnant. Alexa didn’t tell anyone that she was leaving or about the baby, except her parents who helped her run. Alexa had the baby and gave him up for adoption, hoping this would keep him safe if the ex found her. Alexa went to school and became a lawyer. She moved to Montana with her best friend to continue her new life.

Miles was just another male shifter living the life of freedom and women when he met Alexa. They had an instant connection. He knew she was his mate. Everyone could sense their connection. The only problem was that Miles had to tell Alexa that he was a werewolf, not knowing her history. When Alexa discovered Miles’ secret she walked away from Miles and their connection. She would not do it again. Alexa started seeing a therapist to help her work through her issues. The therapist encouraged Alexa to tell Miles about her past.

As Alexa is finally able to disclose to Miles her history, the ex re-emerges from shadows and takes Alexa. The ex knows about the baby and he wants his son. He takes Alexa to go get his child, with Miles chasing them to rescue Alexa. Alexa is crafty and manages to keep her and the child safe and even manages to escape from her ex. Miles makes it so Alexa will never be haunted by her ex again.

This story has many good points and a few bad. But overall, the good wins out and the story is delightful and at times, very fun. Excellent read.

The characters weaved right into my heart, especially Miles and Alexa and kept me turning page after page because I just had to know what was next for them.

4.5 Stars

 

Resisting Nature is the fourth book in The Powder River Pack series by Brooke May. This is a wonderful paranormal romance, with shifters, werewolves, fated mates, mystery, angst, action, drama, chemistry, steamy developments, struggles, heartache, and emotion.
Alexa Hart’s past experience with love brought her nothing but pain- so she’s determined to protect her heart at all cost. That becomes increasingly difficult the moment Miles Fischer wanders into her life. She is drawn to him, and still she tries to fight it. Nature and fate have their own plans though. But, what happens when secrets are revealed? Can Miles still win her heart and convince her that they were fated to be together, and that that kind of forever-love is worth the risk. Well, this is well worth the read to find out.
Happy Reading!

Thank you, Broke May!

I was happy to see a new book by Brooke May was out and couldn’t wait to get it in my hot little hands. There is not one book that Brooke has written that I have not loved. I like that she writes several genres and always comes up with a good storyline but paranormal is my first love. Resisting Nature is a paranormal romance tale in the Powder River Pack series. Make sure you read them in order, or you are missing out on all this alpha goodness.
With fated mates and alpha shifters, werewolves, love, action, drama, passion, heartache, pain, hope, secrets, longing and more. This is my favourite book to date and love the characters that are a part of this world. They are interesting and well developed and it’s hard not to like them. There are also times where you find yourself laughing as well.
Alexa is trying to start over and move on from the mess that was her life. She wants a peaceful life, a good life only if the past stays in the past. Is l ready to let someone in? Could she truly be happy?
Miles has never been one to have control when he sees something he wants. S is more than something he wants she is his fated one. He will make sure all she sees is him. He finds the one thing that will make his life complete, but will she accept him or will her past keep them apart?
If you love paranormal romances, then you will need to grab a copy and enjoy.

This is another brilliant addition to this series and I think has to have the strongest characters so far. I really connected with them and I feel like they were so real and believable. Their connection to each other is so strong as well. It isn’t plain sailing for them either which I think made them more interesting to read about.
The story fit really well with the characters. It was an interesting story and I was pulled into it straight away. I always enjoy this authors writing style and her books never fail to entertain me. This series feels like it is going from strength to strength and I am looking forward to the next.

This is an author that I have enjoyed reading for a while now. Her books are such that they are full of romance and her characters heat up the pages. I enjoy how she can pull you into the story with ease and keep my attention to the end. This book is no different. It is a well written story about Miles and Alexa. He thinks that he has finally found his mate until he loses her. She is afraid of who he is so she pushes him away. Miles is determined that Alexa is his mate and to change her mind about him. Will nature take its course or will her stubbornness will out? I enjoyed these two characters. They made the story easy to read and hard to put down. I enjoyed their chemistry and attraction. I enjoyed watching their growth throughout. This is a fast paced story that you don’t want to miss. Will Miles and Alexia find a HEA? Are they mates? I highly recommend reading this book to find out.

I loved this story. Alexa is working through some prior issues from the past. Miles is learning about fated mates. Together they seem to somehow be making this work. the people around them seemed to be supportive. I am guilty of the little chuckle when you go to bed with a human and you wake up the next morning to literal dog breath. I love how this author writes because you get so involved in the story right from the start. It’s a really intriguing story that kept me so into it that I couldn’t put it down. I can’t wait to read Mason’s story. I want to read more about about this pack. Maybe we can have Derek’s story?

This is a great book that didn’t take much time to read. It is well paced and the story line doesn’t feel rushed. Things are explained and set up for future books. The way that the characters are written makes you feel like they could be your neighbor or your friend. Ok, I wish that I had friends like this but more because of the whole shifter element. You are instantly connected to the characters and who doesn’t root for a bad boy turned good guy. I loved the push and pull that happens with the characters because it is something that you could see actually happening. The pushing away to protect someone from the past, the pulling them closer because you just can’t stay away from them. I love the tenacity that is shown in this book. It was a quick read and there were things I was not expecting which made things even better. It is so hard to not say everything because I don’t want to give any spoilers. If you have a day that you can just spend in a book, let this be that book. I promise you wont be disappointed. I can’t wait for more.

I have to admit that paranormal romance are definately a genre I love and I have read this authors work before so I knew I was going to enjoy it. This author never disappoints me. If you love stories about strong protective warewolf shifters and their fated mates then this is definately a book for you.

In this story we are with Alexa and Miles.
Alexa has had a rough relationship in the past with a warewolf shifter which causes her to run as far away as possible. She plans on never allowing another man to get that close to her again. That is until she meets Miles. The attraction to him is instant, she feels a connection she has never felt before but is it all too good to be true?

Miles has heard stories about fated mates but he’s not sure it’s real until Alexa walks into his life. He knows that she is his fated mate and he will stop at nothing to make her his. However he is hiding a secret. He is a wareshifter. How will Alexa react to this news? Will she believe him even?

With Alexa’s past how will she react when she finds out the truth about who Miles really is? What happens next is a fight between her heart and her head. She knows what happened in the past and she doesn’t want to fall prey again but this connection with Miles feels so different.
Miles on the other hand is determined to prove that this is real and fight for his mate but will her constant rejection and pushing him away prove to be too much?
What is going to win Alexa’s head or will she give into nature and what it is has store for her and her mate?

Can she actually be successful this time around? When she meets Marron she thinks this may be it is she can just get Seth and Marron on board. This was a cute story with a very different kind of Cupid.

Seraphina
By: Brooke May

This is a fantasy romance, something I don’t normally read. But Brooke May has become one of my favorite authors so I figured I would give this book a chance and I am so glad that I did.
Seraphina is a cupid, but not the normal stereotypical cupid we all imagine with arrows and wings and looking like a cherub. Seraphina is feisty and really sassy.
Seth is a hockey player with a playboy attitude. He goes through his pick of women on the regular. But once Seraphina gets involved that all changes.
This is the fourth book in the series, but the first that I have read. I definitely think this book functioned as a standalone, but I will be reading the others because I enjoyed this one. I definitely loved the characters in this book and have always found Brooke May to have a talent in writing books with fantastically well developed characters that jump off the page. I definitely recommend this book!

SeraphinaSeraphina by Brooke May
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is by far my favorite book in the Heartstrings series, what a wonderful moral that we learn in this book. Not only do we learn that actions speak louder than words, but we also see that the love of mankind is far more important than anything money can buy. Seraphina also referred to as Meanie by Aiko, our first cupid that we met in book one of this series, not only helps to show why she’s developed this nickname, but she grows through the process of this latest assignment. She is working with Seth, a man that she has been tethered to two other times, both of which failed after she had left the romance to finish blooming on their own, must come back a third time to help Seth, a pro ice hockey player, to find the love of his life. Seraphina is surprised by the man that she is confronted with, as he has changed, and not for the better, allowing fame and fortune to change his entire outlook on life. He is now more focused on himself, instead of the love that he once had for his teammates and the love of the game. Her work is cut out for her, especially when Seraphina learns that the person that Seth’s heartstring leads to is a woman who works in a local place that helps kids in a low-income neighborhood to have opportunities at daycare and activities to keep them out of trouble. Seth grew up in a similar situation thanks to his grandmother taking him in at a young age and giving him the love of ice hockey. Seth has a lot to learn when it comes to wooing a woman who does not need or want all the expensive dinners and entertainment that he’s used to showing his dates but is more drawn into the love he shows the children. Will Seth be able to find his past self, and find joy in the simple things of life, or will he allow his fame and fortune to continue to blind him to the greater things in life, such as true love?

Malayeka (Heartstrings Series) by Brooke May – Review by Brandy Rymer

Malayeka (Heartstrings Book 3)Malayeka by Brooke May
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was so fun to read, I loved that Malayeka was the cupid who got the feuding families, whom she had worked with when the feud had first begun ages before. It’s like the saying goes, things just keep coming around, well hopefully after this cupid works her magic, maybe the feud will finally come to an end but with love winning out this time. Malayeka has her hands full in this story, where she’s got to work with the Thomson family and the Reid family who are well known for their feuding town where each side of the road has matching businesses, but each side is run by the other family. Unfortunately for our cupid, the person she is tethered to is a Reid, and her heartstring leads to a Thomson. The two who are attached have had a secret friendship their whole lives that they have had to keep hidden from both families. The Thomson side of this romance has no problem telling his family how he feels, it’s the Reid side who values the love of her family and is too scared to speak up and stand up for the love that she hides deep down, where she thinks if ignored, it’ll just fade away into safety. This is where our cupid gets to come in and help guide these two into seeing how much better life would be if they’d just open up to the love, they have for one another and how much more healing it would be for everyone in the long run in the town. This was such a fun read that incorporates old-time teachings and morals but is based in a modern time. Will these families be able to get past their old-fashioned beliefs and allow their children to let their love for one another blossom, or will they drive the two love birds apart?

Faida (Heartstrings Series) by Brooke May – Review by Brandy Rymer

Faida (Heartstrings Book 2)Faida by Brooke May
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Faida is the second book in the Heartstrings series which features a very cynical cupid who has seen too much history of failed relationships in her time. Faida is one of Cupid’s helper cupids who is tethered to a single dad, who is a successful CEO of an ad company, who has been burned in love. His daughter’s mother was a multiple-time cheater, who decided she was better off leaving her daughter and her ex to live her life filled with men, drugs, and alcohol seeking the thrill of life instead of motherhood. This leaves a very sour taste toward love in the mouth of Robert, a single dad who devotes his entire life to his business and his daughter. This is where Faida comes in, to help Robert open his heart to the concept that not all women are as bad as his ex, and that not only does his daughter deserve a mom in her life, but he deserves love as well. Mika is Robert’s assistant, and the right hand of the business, who jumps at any request he has thrown at her. Mika has a soft spot in her heart for her boss as well as his daughter, but she’s too passive to speak up for what she wants. Will Faida be able to convince Robert that what he needs has been right in front of him the whole time, or will he allow his past issues with love to continue to keep his heart closed to romance? Not only do we get to watch Faida in her element, but we also get to meet some of the other cupids as well as they occasionally need to help one another out with their assignments. In the end, will Faida be able to help Robert open his heart, as well as find hope in romance once again?

Aiko (Heartstrings Series) by Brooke May – Review by Brandy Rymer

Aiko (Heartstrings #1)Aiko by Brooke May
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book puts a whole new twist to Cupid, in this first book in the Heartstrings book series. Aiko is one of the cupids that Cupid created after the needs of the human race and romance became too great for him alone. Aiko is a cupid whose specialty is failed romances, but with dire consequences that lead to her being put into restrictions repeatedly. She is finally released from her most recent restriction and allowed to find Alejandro’s (Al) true love by connecting his heartstrings to the love of his life. Aiko goes about this process like no other cupid, trying to utilize two different women to teach Al what it takes to catch and keep a good woman’s attention without embarrassing himself. This does not work how Aiko intended, in turn creating a bigger mess, which she then needs to work with Al to correct, hopefully before it’s too late, to make amends with the woman that Al is destined to be with. I loved all of the hilarity that befalls our cupid, as well as the person to whom she is tethered, and the experience of seeing all of the follies that come with finding love. This book combines humor, love, and dating all into a delightful new romance series that will leave you looking forward to the next book in the series.
