Forbidden Wolf The Shadow Chronicles Book 1 By: C.R. Robertson Genre: Romance & Paranormal/Supernatural Pages: 290
Yes! I have found a new favorite series. This book is the first of an adventure that I cannot wait to continue. A story of werewolf and vampire that puts Twilight in the background, the originality is amazing. The attention to detail when describing the chemistry and building the romance between a female and male lead character will have your head in this book, I couldn’t flip the page fast enough. Vampire, werewolf, and a past that can destroy everything they hold dear. LOVE! The development of these characters and the plot is timeless and worth more than five stars. Does love truly to conquer all or will the past come back with a vengeance ?

Exactly like the first book in this series I would definitely give this book more than 5 stars if I could! Tasha and Levi’s story continues in this book as well as the war they are fighting. Some new developments happen and it keeps you guessing on what in the world will happen next! It is fantastic to the very end! Now don’t mind me as I burn through the rest of CR Robertson’s novels. The worldbuilding in these books was fantastic and that tells me all of their books are going to be up my alley. Happy Reading!

Honestly I would give this book more than 5 stars if I could! I loved every page in this book! While reading I kept wondering how in the world things were going to end up with Tasha and Levi and it was a roller coaster up until the fantastic ending. The ending leaves a great opening for the next book in the series which was even better if possible. This is definitely going down as one of my favorite paranormal series! The Vampire and Lycan lore is absolutely exquisite in these books!

Forbidden Mate (The Shadow Chronicles #2) by CR Robertson
Another fantastic read by Robertson. Levi and Tasha’s story continues with Forbidden Mate. Things get interesting and you really have to read it to see what I mean.
Tasha is still mated to Levi. She’s still being hunted by the Hellspawn Master. And her Coven leader wants her as well. Will she be able to escape the troubles that haunt her? The quote I chose for Tasha is: “What if it isn’t anything to do with the vampire brother but who he mated with? The vampire side gives immortality, but if Mum is right, and there is witch blood combined with it, then they could want access to that.”
Levi still has the desire to protect Tasha at all costs. He will put his own life in danger before risking her life. When she is taken he about loses himself to his wolf. Tasha being the only one able to bring him back. The quote I chose for Levi is: “I needed to become an alpha fast in the military and the only way to do that during my initial conscription term was to fight. So, I embraced my wolf and we took command of a base.”
Tasha the Vampire and Levi the Lycan return as they continue to fight for their survival, the Hellspawn are back after a few months of precious respite and now are back to attacking them on a nightly basis, but they are evolving and the way that they attack them is changing too, meanwhile, the two forbidden lovers and mates continue in their fated romance as they swap between being fearless leaders in front of their fellow warriors to being able to show each other their true feelings behind closed doors.
Meanwhile, they are trying to study history of the two races, as well as their genetics and see what they will reveal about their origins and therefore the Hellspawn, but whenever they think that they have found something it just reveals more questions than answers. They are all just trying to use their skills to keep their heads above water and out of the mess created by their enemies, but with each step forwards, they are starting to feel like they are going two steps backward and the tentative and slightly unstable alliance takes just as much work to maintain as hiding the some critical truths from those around them.
Cant the two fated mates find out what is hiding behind the wall of secrets and think of a way to keep the Hellspawn and others who want to destroy what they have at arms length, or will things come between them and rip them apart for good? This paranormal romance is filled with tension and excitement from the get go and keeps you reading as the story unravels before you, it is a rollercoaster of ups and downs which keep you off balance and always guessing what is around the next bend.

Forbidden Mate (Book 2 of The Shadow Chronicles) by C.R. Robertson is AMAZING!! I was hooked in book 1 and now I’m so upset there isn’t a book 3, but it was such a good series. Tasha and Levi continue trying to help both of their species to ally and help defeat the 3rd species. In doing so, they learn new things about each species in their past. During the battles, there are more drama stories and adventures which help lead them to what they need to know. I simply love the friendships, relationships, and comradeships that were made in this book. I wish some of them were my friends! Please make sure to read this series!! You will not be disappointed! 🙂

Forbidden Wolf by C.R. Robertson is simply a great read! One vampire, one Lycan, two species that war against each other, but these two found love and have to fight their way out. Many years later, they meet again, but there is another species out there making themselves known even though they did not know it. The way C.R. builds this story with all the main characters is just amazing! This was my first read from C.R. Robertson, and I immediately made sure I got the second book! If you have a love for vampires and Lycans, then check this out!

Forbidden Mates takes us back into the world of Vampire Tasha and Lycan Levi. Having helped form a very rocky peace agreement between their two species, Tasha and Levi are still fighting to keep both their relationship and their species in tact. They are facing danger from not only outside sources like hellspawn, but friction within their groups as well.
These books are so great. Tasha and Levi are a formidable force together, and I enjoyed seeing their relationship grow and become stronger in this second novel. The enemies are becoming stronger and more clever, which I enjoyed. I am really looking forward to the third book in the series….except that is the end of their journey! I could read 100 more novels about this couple and never get tired of it! 5/5 Stars! Highly recommend!

The sequel following Forbidden Wolf, Forbidden Mate follows the story of Tasha and Levi right where we left off in the first book. Many series I’ve read in the past begin to lose their luster after the first book, but C.R. Robertson doesn’t disappoint! With the same epic world-building, C.R. Robertson delivers this sequel with a firm grip on our attention with action, fantastic twists, and an intense love story. In Forbidden Mate, Tasha and Levi uncover certain truths behind past events and continue fighting to take out their hellish enemies. We’re taken deeper into the world of the supernatural and once-again craving the next book.

Oh, my shadows! This is the second book in this series and it picks up right where the first left off. I enjoyed the forbidden angle of their love in the first book. With the accords approved their love is approved even though it is still a fight to prove themselves. As if that wasn’t enough as they also have the hellspawn growing in strength. Causing more strife for Lycans and vampires alike. I cant wait to see how this series plays out. The story is not like others I have read.

We once again join our leading characters Tasha and Levi. Although their union of vampire and lycan has been approved through the accords. It’s still not 100% accepted.
This book starts off right where the previous ended. And there is not a moment without action happening. The hellspawn are getting stronger and they are learning more each day. But sometimes the enemy is right under your lycan noses.
I cannot wait to grab the next in this series! Review by @michellerenee6590

Forbidden Mate (The Shadow Chronicles Book 2) by CR Robertson 4 Stars
The excitement continues in book two of this series. The love between Levi and Tasha continues to defy the odds. Law states that they are sworn enemies yet they are fated mates. The alliance between the Lycans and the Vampires have only made them stronger to defeat the new enemy. Just as they are evolving, so are the Hellspawn. They too are learning and evolving, becoming a formidable foe. The master hellspawn wants one thing only. The one thing Levi will burn the world to protect; Tasha. There are enemies within as well. Each day poses a new problem.
Action, danger, vampires and werewolves. What more could you want? The author keeps drawing you in by adding layers to the plot. There are unexpected surprises as well. This series gets better with each book. I can’t wait to read the next instalment. Review by @Anna Hirsch

This is filled and I mean filled with ACTION! It has other elements like drama, suspense and of course the relationships. While I loved all the action and drama my favorite is the relationship between Tasha and Levi! His protective possessiveness of her just made my heart pound. I loved seeing it every time from him pushing her behind and putting his arm across her in dangerous times to actually fighting anyone who is unfriendly to her. Tasha isn’t a pushover and can hold her own especially when her mate is threatened. Their connection is what makes this so much more.
The storyline was busy and fast paced. I like all the ups and downs that this story took. I enjoyed the character movement plus we get to see a lot of new characters. I am not sure where or which way the story is headed. I have been surprised more than once in here. Very Enjoyable

This is the second book of Levi and Tasha’s story and I liked it as much as the first! It was non stop from the get go. The war with the hellspawn is increasing and just when I thought that the conflict was going to be resolved, something awful happens. The story takes a sudden sideways twist that I didn’t see coming. It surprised me, but I did love seeing justice served. There is also an element introduced to the whole mix toward the end and it feels like all the pieces are fitting into place to wrap it all up in the next book! Definitely looking forward to reading the conclusion!
All in all, this is a fantastic second book! Everyone needs a Levi kind of love and protector.

Book 2 was amazing. It was filled with so much tension and war. Tasha and Levi’s journey together continues in book 2. This poor couple can not catch a break. The hellspawn are at their door every night trying to kill everyone in sight. The lycans and vampires are working together to try and save their races. Life gets even more interesting when Castus and his minions are on a warpath as well. He wants Tasha for payback and his evil plan. The Master hellspawn wants her too and she belongs to Levi. Levi is going crazy trying to keep her safe at every turn. I can’t wait to read the next book

This is my first book I have read by CR Robertson. It is not my usual genre and it took me a little while to get into the book but I am glad I stuck with it because it turned out to be a great book. My favorite parts were the action kicking butt scenes. Also it is a good mix with the sexy romance between Levi and Sasha. They are truly a forbidden mix of lovers. Long lost family is reunited and its nice to see everyone back together.

Forbidden Mate (The Shadow Chronicles Book 2) by CR Robertson 5 Star!!!!!
I absolutely love Sherrilyn Kenyon and Cassandra Clare so of course I fell for this book series. I could not put this book down. I love how the forbidden love plays a part in it and that there is just as much adventure as romance comes to play in this book. The characters are well written. The author brings a fresh outlook to witches, lycans and vampires.
Tasha and Levi have the forbidden love that brings the reader in and the story draws you in deeper and deeper. I found that there was just enough action and drama that keeps the reader glued to your seat and not want to stop reading. I like how there is just enough of a carrot dangled to keep the reader wanting more and I for one cannot wait for the next book. Reviewed by @caraleeloonat

In book 1, Forbidden Wolf, you fell in love with the two main characters, Levi and Tasha. In this second book, you fell in love with their story and the strength that love can provide. Levi and Tasha once again are trying to win this war against the hellspawn (and those that oppose their connection). At every turn, the couple is dealing with diversity, and when things start to look up, something else gets in their path. But the bond and strength and uniqueness of being mated helps conquer even the most turmoil of situations. One thing I just love about paranormal romances is the way authors talk about bonds, love, soul mates, etc. It is done in such a way that you yearn for those feelings. CR Robertson writes in a fashion where I can physically feel what these characters are feeling just by reading the words – that’s talent.

Forbidden Mate is the second book in this series by C. R Robertson. It picks up where it leaves off with Levi and Tasha falling more and more in love and right in the middle of a war between Lycans, vampires and hellspawn. Forbidden Mate yanked me in just as the first book did. I have completely fallen head over heels for Levi and Tasha as characters and their growing relationship. This story is well written as I lost track of time as I just couldn’t put it down. I was so invested in learning about what happens next that I kept promising myself.. just one more chapter. If you like lycans, vampires, mysterious enemies… then I highly recommend this read to you!

Forbidden Mate is the second book in the Shadow Chronicles series by CR Robertson. If you haven’t already done so, start with book one in the series. This is a continuation of the story.
Book two sees us back with Lycan Levi and Vampire Tasha. After starting a war with their love in book one, this story has a whole new set of complications, challenges, and battles. There is so much history and bad feelings between the Lycans and the Vampires that sparks fly constantly. The love story between Levi and Tasha has me hooked. I love both of these characters and literally couldn’t put this book down….I NEED to know what happens next.

Tasha and Levi are still at it. The master is still looking for Tasha. While Levi and Tasha are just looking for their happily ever after. I thought the first book couldn’t get any better but Robertson knocked this one out of the park.
Forbidden Mate is quite the ride! Action is packed between steamy moments and suspenseful adventures. This book is the absolute opposite of predictable. It is a page-turner that keeps you on your toes and simply anxious to find out what happens next. But the author definitely didn’t forget to add just the right amount of hope and love. If you liked the first of this series, you will love this continuation! I CANNOT wait to read the conclusion!!

Forbidden Wolf is a new form of paranormal romance. I have NEVER read a book like this before! It grows past mere lingering looks and infatuation to a whole new level of devotion. This story matures into a revolutionary tale that breaks the mold. It is ABSOLUTELY worth the time to read this ground-breaking novel. I will say that the beginning was a little slow, but oh my goodness did it take off! And ALL the feels!!

Ugh, I LOVED! This book continues from Forbidden Wolf, and CR Robertson has topped it! Tasha really comes into her power and confidence, Levi is again just the best. There was spice from the start, but not just spice, passionate and almost desperate spice, which is even better. The connection between the two MCs is palpable and I loved getting lost in it. The villains in the story were quite despicable, which makes them great villains to route against. I loved the underlying mysteries about the world and the history of the characters. Once I hit about 50% through, I couldn’t put it down. My only complaint is that it doesn’t look like there will be a third book… Why? I need more of Tasha and Levi!!! I need to know what happens next! Maybe a spin off series? Please? Definitely looking out for more this author has written, because I thoroughly enjoyed both books in this world.

I give Forbidden Mate (The Shadow Chronicles Book 2) by CR Robertson, 5 stars. **This review may contain spoilers from book one.**
This book is so incredibly good! I forgot how good this series was, but as soon as I started this one, I could not put it down. While this is a paranormal romance with some pretty steamy scenes, it is so much more than that. With an enemy that wants to destroy both of their species, and former master vampire determined to make Tasha his, there is plenty of action and suspense. Then there are the surprises waiting for them, both with the vampires and the lycans. But this book is not just about Tasha and Levi. The secondary characters from book one are back and we meet a few new interesting characters, too. This helps to really make this world even better.
If you are a fan of paranormal romance starring two characters absolutely devoted to each other and the survival of their kinds, then this book and series are for you. I recommend reading book one first so you have a bit better understanding of what happened previously.

I was fortunate enough to read “Forbidden Wolf” directly before this book so I was able to jump right back into the world Robertson created and read from Tasha and Levi’s mind like I didn’t skip a beat. Lucky me!!! 😁 Because it has been an EPIC adventure!! This book starts off running and doesn’t seem to stop until it ends with a decent enough resolution that I can put it down and not be exasperated about what I was left with. BUT!! I want more! I want the next book and I want it NOW! We get to see the growth of the love and soul connection that Levi and Tasha have had since their first snarky bite at one another; and let me tell you, the steamy scenes DO NOT DISAPPOINT! Ssssssoooo hot! We also get to see more plot twists and the increase of enemies from all sides that gather and never seem to end. Once again, I stayed up later than I should have – not even to finish it…. Just to find a stopping point so my mind would be willing to put the book down and get some sleep before work the next day. I legitimately screamed at a major discovery and stayed glued to this book in order to finish it. I bow to you CR Robertson! What a great story this book was!

This book really drew me in deep, and I mean that in a good way, From the vey beginning of the novel I was sucked in. I had not read the book prior to this one, but needless to say I am going to. The characters were beautifully written and this author really knows how to grab you and keep you reading basically!
This book delivered and more. Thee book had a wide range of characters that I believe carried over from the previous book. I was so invested I felt I was a apart` of the group going through the actions and adventure…and dare I say trials/tests that they had been through in this novel!
Darkness can be over powering especially in the dark world and what it does to our beloved characters was so intense, can they really trust what they know? Is what they believe truly the truth? There was constantly something happened, the book never lagged, or seemed boring at al! I literally could not put this one down it was my perfect genre of book, and the story was so compelling I constantly needed to know what would happen next! It was amazing from start to finish!
By far, I felt a super strong connection to Tasha and Levi. They seemed to not be perfectly connected by the start of the book, but as the story continued they seemed to entwine more and more. I really loved that connection that seemed to grow? I’m feeling I am not the only reader who thought that! Every character was remarkable in a special way! The author truly delivered and then some with this book!
The book was amazing to say the least. I really felt the connection as I said with all the characters. I really felt myself adapt to what ever they faced. I loved how they stuck together during hard times and even when all seemed lost, their will and strength relied on one another got them though! The characters and how they were written were so good, and realistic! I loved the story and the action and all the paranormal setting put into it! it was a wonderful and fun read! I defiantly look forward to more in the future from this amazing author! This was truly a book that delivered above and beyond expectations!

Forbidden Mate by CR Robertson picks up where Forbidden Wolf (The Shadow Chronicles Book 1) left off. In Book 1, Forbidden Wolf, CR Robertson introduces the characters of Levi, a Lycan, and Tasha, a Vampire. Levi and Tasha have fallen deeply in love although they were never meant to be mates. The Lycans and the Vampires have been sworn enemies for centuries and were ordered to kill one another on sight but are now fighting side by side to end the Lycan-vampire war. The vampires and Lycans have formed a tentative alliance to fight a much bigger enemy, the Hellspawn.
As the war against the Hellspawn rages on Levi And Tasha are thrown into a dark world of secrets and lies that threatens to destroy everything they have ever known. It is a race against time as Levi and Tasha try to solve the mystery behind the genetics of both the Lycans and Vampires. As strong as their love is for one another it might not be enough to survive the bigger enemy and overcome the dark secrets behind their genetic makeup.
I instantly fell in love with the characters of both Levi and Tasha when I first met them in Book 1, Forbidden Wolf, and was completely drawn into their world. Book 2, Forbidden Mate, continues their journey and builds more on the characters and their lives. There was never a dull moment throughout the entire book, and it is action-packed throughout. Forbidden Mate kept me turning the pages and I found myself rooting for Levi and Tasha and hoping that their love would persevere through all the trials and tribulations they were continuously put through. My heart skipped a beat when the evil Castus popped back into their lives and tried to come between Tasha and Levi. I cringed when the Master Hellspawn is almost able to lure Tasha to him. I waited with bated breath in the hopes that Levi could save his one true love. CR Robertson does a great job building suspense and keeping the reader intrigued. I highly recommend this book!

The Lycan/Vampire vs Hellspawn War wages on. Tasha and Levi are still battling the Master Hellspawn and his minions, whom are ever adapting. Tash and Levi are also evolving during this war. This installment of The Shadow Chronicles was even more action packed and intriguing that Book 1 (Forbidden Wolf). There is a lot of action as there is a major war going on outside the base and inside the base (with Castus). The plot is well-written and does a thorough job with explaining the science they are studying to understand the Lycan/Vampire genetics. The characters are well-thought out and put together. My personal favorite, after Tasha and Levi, of course, are Tasha’s parents. Her mom has no problem putting her father in his place. The female characters are strong and confident in this book. They will go into battle without a second thought. I did not see that ending come. I’m kind of hoping a further book in the future about them? Hint, hint! Great series. Recommend this!

Yall, I said it before when I reviewed the first book in the Shadow Chronicles and I will say it again but these books are not your average vampire reads and everyone should go run and one-click them! They are just fab and I have become and instant fan of CR Robertson as a result. I love her knack for writing paranormal romance books and her ability to restore my faith in vampire reads once again. I used to love this genre and really really loved reading Anne Rice and whatnot but just became really burned out and sad when Twilight killed it, yes I know I am one of those that could have done without that whole franchise all together. Anywho Forbidden Mate took me on a magnificent ride and kept me reading late into the night. In fact it kept the hubby up too who may or may not be reading these now, oopsies lol. Not sorry actually. These books have something for everyone with action and adventure, intrigue and suspense and the underlying romance is enough to keep me so glued to the kindle I can’t bear it. I will most definitely be stalking and hoping for book three to be available soon!
