This series has been great! I’m not wanting it to come to an end anytime soon, but I know that is inevitable. This is book 9 of the series and is Master Botosoni and Catina. He of course is a pureblooded vampire and belongs to the Consulate. She has visions and it is told that she could lead them directly to those that oppose them. This book, like the others, can be read as a stand alone.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a good 5 star read. It has been awhile since I have read this genre and I was pulled right in. This was different from what I have read before regarding shifting, I like it when authors put their spin on things. Alexa and Miles were great characters. I love the tall dark and handsome alpha males. Alexa has a past that she has kept secret for years. When she learns what Miles is, memories of her past come rushing back to her. Then we get a scary twist when her ex shows up. Will Miles be able to save Alexa? Overall I really enjoyed this book, I was on the edge of my seat with all of the thrilling things happening. The author does a great job with her writing, I look forward to reading more from her. 1-click and get started today.

Resisting Nature (Powder River Pack Series) by Brooke May – Review by Beverly Finnie

Resisting Nature (Powder River Pack Book 4)Resisting Nature by Brooke May
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I’ve read all the books in this series but it took me a minute when I started to read Resisting Nature to have it all become clear, since it’s been a while. I love all these books. I also think it might be time to go back and start over again!
One thing I like that the author does is that all the books in this series overlap. The story being told for each pack member overlaps with the next one. I find that awesome in a series vs it being one story ends and the next begins.
Alexa has been through the ringer. And now that we get to delve into her story we finally find out why. Coming out of a previous abusive relationship to a werewolf no less makes her skeptical about moving forward. When she meets Miles she’s drawn to him, but doesn’t feel she can trust him. Starting them off with a lot of push and pull.
Miles knows it the minute he lays eyes on her, “mate.” But how can he court Alexa and discuss his true nature without her turning her back on him. Especially when she keeps pushing him away. Well one unexpected night changed that and caused her to run. Unfortunately he didn’t know the real reason why, just assume it was because of his wolf. However once danger nears he vows to never let anyone hurt her.
Will Alexa ever open up to Miles?
Can Miles keep her safe?
This series has a lot of ups and downs. But that’s what keeps the reader on their toes. This story specifically makes you feel for Miles. But the underlying danger I think was the most significant of all the books in this series. You (as the reader) know but at the same time you don’t know what’s coming. Which is why I really like this author.
Do you need to read the other books? Not really
Should you? Absolutely!
So what are you waiting for?!?

Savage Lies (Hidden Valley Elite Book 1) by Isla Vaughn – Review by Kristan Anderson

Savage Lies (Hidden Valley Elite #1)Savage Lies by Isla Vaughn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Somehow I managed to read The Hidden Valley Elite series and skipped book one. Until now. Savage Lies by Isla Vaughn is book one in the series, I’d say it definitely is necessary for following along in the next books (so don’t be me and think the prequel was the first book!) Riley is just here to make a new name for herself. She is running from something but clearly runs right into Coles crossfire. Cole is the best of the best, the top jock here at Hidden Valley High School. Well him, his brother and his cousins. Knowing you darn well should stay away from someone but feeling the tension between the two of you makes everything incredibly confusing and difficult. This book is crazy, but In all of the best ways. Since I’ve already read the whole series, I’ll just say it is DEFINITELY worth it. This was one of my favorites and I look forward to other books by Isla!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I’ve read books by Brooke May in the past but never from this series. While Resisting Nature is not the first book in the series, I didn’t feel lost following along on Alexa and Miles’ storyline. I really liked both main characters and the fact that the story was written in multiple perspectives. The writing style was really intriguing and genuinely grabbed my attention within the first couple chapters and held it throughout. This was not a light and fluffy read but the plot was well thought out and followed through. I am usually a vampire/witch fan but this shifter/ werewolf theme was fantastic. I would definitely read more of this paranormal romance series in the future.

I am really enjoying this series, each book adds another level to this very interesting story. The world created by this author is so unique and I love revisiting it with each new book. Botosoni and Catina’s story as they found each other was so special. As with any great love story there are a few twists and turns but every thing turned out great in the end. This is a good series and I look forward to reading the next installment.

This was a great 5 star read. I love dark romance and this did not disappoint. We start right where book 1 ended, I was on the edge of my seat reading this. I really liked both Kingston and Ava, I really like the alpha bad boys. Ava is a strong character as well and as Kingstons captive she starts to fall for him. We get some very hot and steamy moments. Overall this was a great read. We get several twists and turns. I will warn there may be some triggers for some. You really need to read book 1 before this one. If you like dark romance this would be a read for you. I look forward to reading more from this author. 1-click and get started today.

It Just Comes Natural (Powder River Pack Book 3)It Just Comes Natural by Brooke May
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the third book in the Powder River series and tells us Macy and Brandon’s story. I adored meeting Miranda’s father and reading about the story of how her parents met, fell in love, and then were separated. We get to see what a day in Macy’s life is like outside of working the bar and keeping Derek in line with his grumpy self, well until Annabelle comes back into his life in book one of the series. I love how the author takes us back in time to the beginning of each of the stories of the characters, but then brings us to the present time. Each of the books overlaps in their storylines, but each time we get to see it from our main character’s point of view. I have been loving reading through each of these character’s stories, but I especially loved reading about what a strong female character Macy is, and how Miranda got all of her energy and mischievousness from her father. This series is a must-read if you love werewolves and mythical stories with a new twist.

Call of the Alpha (Powder River Pack #2)Call of the Alpha by Brooke May
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the second book in the Powder River series and introduces us to Mason and Riley’s story. Mason is the alpha of the pack, and meets his mate, Riley, at the very beginning of the story. This happens right after his brother Miles meets his mate, her best friend, Alexa, as they both walk into the bar together. We also get to meet Mason’s son, Archer, who he had with a woman who was not his mate but was a drug abuser. Archer’s mom signed away all of her rights as soon as she was done having him, thank goodness because Mason came and picked up his son immediately and took charge of being a single dad. Archer was Mason’s everything, he had no room for women in his life until he met his mate, who he hopes will love Archer just as much as he does. Riley is the perfect woman for Mason, but she doesn’t know anything about the existence of werewolves, will she be able to accept him for who and what he is? I was so excited to understand what Riley’s big brother’s secret was, it was a great way to introduce our next set of characters for the next book in the series as well.

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.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first book I have read from this author and wow she now has a new fan. This book is the prequel to the Hidden Valley Elite series and now I’m hooked on these guys. I also love that she wrote this from both characters’ points of view because it makes me feel more emotional for them. This was a quick read for you to get ready for this epic series and I can’t wait to read it.

Riley is used to moving around so when her and her mother end up in another small town she doesn’t get attached. She wanted to have some fun first because she would be gone soon anyway. Riley sees a house party so she sneaks in and she looks around. She sees something valuable so she takes it but she wasn’t expecting to run into someone. Riley runs into the very addictive Cole. She doesn’t know what to do so she kisses him and runs. Will Riley leave and never return or will Cole find her first?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I was doing my best to patiently wait for this book, and I’m pleased to say that it is a deliciously dark romance that kept me awake for hours just so I could finish in one sitting! Without giving anything detrimental to the story away, I *highly* recommend reading the first book in the duet. The chemistry that King and Ava have is no joke, but this book doesn’t just rely on steamy scenes for a plot. There is plenty of intense danger, action, drama, and a rollercoaster of emotions throughout that will have you at the edge of your seat. Although Kingston was far from my favorite person in the first book of this duet, getting more of his background here really does a nice job humanizing him, even if it is still twisted. If you’re looking for a steamy, tantalizing dark romance to devour, look no further. This is your sign!

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.

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.

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

What a fantastic story from an amazing author. I loved the storyline, how it flowed and the way the author brought everything to life for the reader so easily. 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. I 100% recommend reading not only this book but the entire series.
