The Mating Chance (Long Claw Pride Series Book 3 and LumberCats Series Book 2) by Brooke May – Review by Jennifer Gordon

The Mating Chance (Long Claw Pride)The Mating Chance by Brooke May
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

An enjoyable shifter romance with a second chance at love theme which had me hooked throughout. Male mountain lion shifters must follow their instinct to find their mate when the call comes, and this usually only happens once. Boone Claw works as a log faller alongside his brother and lives a bachelor lifestyle surrounded by his crazy cousins. He has watched his family members all settling down having succumbed to the mating call, and so is thrilled when he finally gets it himself. Going on instinct he heads west and finds his mate, Cricket Adams. However, she is shocked when the call strikes her for the second time, as she has already found her mate and started a family with him. She cannot believe that fate would give her a second chance, having taken her mate away and left her as a single mother. When she meets Boone, she is in denial and rejects him despite their obvious connection. However, Boone is determined to convince Cricket to overcome her reservations. I was fully immersed in the world of mountain lion shifters, which the author has created through the wonderfully descriptive narrative. The chemistry between Boone and Cricket really came across and I liked the slight twist on the usual fated mate’s theme.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is an interesting take on shifters and mates. It is the first one that I have read where there is a second mating and I loved the idea of it all. The author has taken a well done trope and played with the concept that true love doesn’t just happen once.
I really enjoyed the characters in this book. They had an obvious connection right from the start, despite the obstacles they were facing. I thought it was great watching their relationship develop and I loved getting to know them. This is a great addition to the series and I am looking forward to seeing what else is to come.

The Mating Chance is a fantastic second chance romance tale and the second book in the Long Claw Pride series. I really enjoyed the first book The Mating Call in this series and couldn’t wait for this book to come out. Make sure you read the first book because like this book it is full of paranormal goodness. It’s my first love in genre.
The world that Brooke has created is one that makes you want to be there and experience what they do. It is so easy to imagine and get lost in.
This captivating paranormal romance story is set in a small town where mountain sexy lion shifters live, and soul mates are eagerly sort after. They are wild, absolutely crazy, and most definitely a lot of fun and you can’t help but fall in love with them.
With plenty of passion, action, drama, hopes, needs, wants and love and mix it up with fate and you have one explosive read that you just can’t put aside until you have devoured every inch of it.
Cricket had it all then it was horribly ripped away from her. Now when a second chance with fate comes along, she doesn’t believe it is true.
Boone just wants what everybody has and that is the answer to the Call. Now that it has happened, he must convince them that fate has given them a second chance.
I can’t wait for what comes next.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This has been one of my favorite series to read. The concept of getting another mate after the one you were lifemated with was really interesting. Cricket is a fiercely independent single momma that was settled into her thinking she would be alone forever now, then BAM, here comes the pull. Boone is trying to avoid his cousin, Sheridan, the bikini-clad wildcat that always needs her jeeps repaired when his pull comes. He takes his leave and follows his pull. I find that amazing because they take such faith and go (yes, it’s just fiction but still). When these two meet up, the chemistry and sparks are there, he just has to get her to accept. I loved reading this story. These prides are full of personality. The elders that the characters talk to are wonderful and wise. When Cricket takes her little one out for a run, I couldn’t help but think of a certain movie. It’s a bittersweet romance that comes with a happy ending that has beautiful characters and always brings a smile and chuckle. I’ll be eagerly awaiting Afton’s turn.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have read a couple of books from this author and she continues to blow my mind. This is the second book in the very addictive series Hidden Valley. I love good enemies but lovers’ stories and this one is in my top three. These books need to be read in order or you will be totally lost. I love how this author writes from both of the characters’ points of view. It makes me feel more emotionally connected to them. I can’t wait to read book three.

Riley and Cole are now living together. They hate each other with a passion. They have one thing in common: they want to get their parents to split. Riley is starting to feel like she belongs at the high school but Cole has other plans for her. He will stop it at nothing to get the truth from Riley and her mother. He knows they are hiding secrets but will it be enough to get rid of them for good? Riley is afraid that her past will come and take her away. She needs someone in her corner but will it be too late?

When the call comes, it is the duty of the male mountain lion shifter to follow instinct to find his mate. It’s only supposed to ever happen once in a mountain lion shifter’s life. But fate can be cruel.
Cricket Adams knows all about the call. Finding her mate already in life and having already started a family with him, she would have never guessed fate would do this to her. Her mate is taken away from her, but fate isn’t done with her yet. Working not only as a single mom, but as the bookkeeper to her family’s logging company, she is in an instant state of denial when the call strikes her again.
Boone Claw has spent his life seeing his family members all succumb to the call, finding a happiness he didn’t truly believe in even seeing it play out before him. Living the bachelor life, working as a log faller alongside his brother, and dodging his crazy cousin, he was thrilled when the call finally strikes him. Instinct takes him west. Learning his mate’s family has a logging company isn’t the only surprise he comes across.
A second mating call is unheard of and so could Cricket’s response in trying to reject him. Can they overcome her reservations? The pain of a human known as Mr. Grace and come together before it’s too late?

Shadowed Deception: A Psychological Suspense Thriller (Shadow Defense Security Book 3)Shadowed Deception: A Psychological Suspense Thriller by Mavery Ellscott
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

4.75 stars

I am really enjoying this series and am hoping that there will be more books to enjoy! This author is making her way to my favorites list also. I enjoy her writing style and the stories that she weaves.

This book could be read as a stand alone but I would recommend you starting at the beginning of the series to get the full story on how Shadow Defense came to be.

This story started off just a tad slow for me but that was short-lived. I soon found myself lost in the story and read this all in one setting. There is a lot of action and suspense with a little bit of romance thrown in. You’ll find yourself loving a character then hating them the next page. This book does discuss some difficult issues so use caution if this would bother you.

A great read that goes by quickly!

Divinely Dramatic (Divine Vintage Series, #2)Divinely Dramatic by Sandra L. Young
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the second book of the ‘Divine Vintage series’ but can be read as a stand alone. The first book was mainly about Tess while this one is about Marcy.

Marcy took on a job for her friend to costume a period-era play. Upon arrival, she is met with reluctance from the director, Mike. Marcy has a talent for reading auras and his aura was always red with annoyance around her. On top of that, the first time she enters the area where she will be working, she sees what can only be described as a ghostly aura. She enlists help from Tess, who has the gift of visions from clothing and they set off to try and discover who passed away and how.

The lead role of the play is suddenly open and it’s up to Marcy to fill that role. Being the artist she is, no way can she pass up this opportunity. So now she has three tasks at hand, plus there seems to be some electricity between Mike and Marcy even though they are opposites. Even though he technically has a girlfriend, it doesn’t stop the confusing feelings coming from both ends.

Will Marcy be able to complete her original job, steal the show, help the ghost, AND get the man?

I enjoyed the first book of this series which was actually the debut novel but I found the speech a little stiff in some areas. This book was written much better speech wise. Again the author was able to make vintage fashion exciting and mysterious with a splash or romance. The main characters have unique abilities which makes it much more intriguing to read.

This book is an action packed story that is full of suspense from start to finish. It is an exciting book to read that is fast paced and interesting the whole way through. The book is part of a series but can be read as a standalone. However, I would definitely recommend reading them all because they are all great reads.
The characters in the book have a great chemistry. I loved watching their relationship develop as they tried to uncover a mystery. The author has written the book with pace and knows how to keep your attention the whole way through. This is a great book that I thoroughly enjoyed.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Holy rollercoaster ride! There was SO much packed into this book. I have read all of the previous installments and couldn’t put this one down towards the end. When you learn the history and background of all the characters, and the story all falls into place, you won’t be able to put it down. Every single character in this book has some type of character development and while this is a “high school romance” it doesn’t feel that way. I love Riley. I think she is a great main character. She’s very intuitive and hardly goes against what she is feeling. She has a great head on her shoulder. Cole’s transformation was incredible to see as he started to be honest with himself. While this book does have a little bit of spice to it, the storyline really takes the cake.

Savage Truth is book number two in The Hidden Valley Elite series of books, but is the conclusion to Riley and Cole’s story. The whole series should be read in order. Savage Truth was a super quick, suspenseful, slightly confused, rollercoaster, high school romance. There is no doubt this author can write, she can spin a story and pack what seems like a lot in such a short amount of pages, I just felt like doing so causes some scenes to feel a little disjointed, but not enough that I wouldn’t continue. I like how it alternates view points because I always like to hear from both main characters, and the chemistry between the characters was intense. I’m interested to see where the author takes the series next.

Book one and book two could have easily been one book but I can definitely see why it was split. With that being said, this book cannot be read as a stand alone. Cole and Riley are now forced to live in the house together. Cole is plotting how to get rid of Riley and her mom, Riley is trying to convince her mom to leave. The tension that is felt in this book can be cut with a knife. Hot, captivating, twists at every turn, and an ending that will shock you. You will not be able to put this book down.

Cole and riley continue their “affair” in book and comes to a close. It feels so similar to another store I’ve read I had a hard time “ getting into it “

I was left torn in two yearning for everything this book could be but disappointed but the repeated actions. However I suppose it coincides with the fact that they are high school students. They sure act like it.

The storyline was promising I just felt it was lacking and could’ve been really robust.

Moments from her small but pivotal role in A Very Crowded House, Harriet “Harry” Smith begins her own story where an Ivy League education, her wit, and talented two hands make no promises, least of all the promise of a happily-ever-after.
A typically tough private investigator and criminology professor, Harry Smith distracts herself from heartbreak by diving headlong into her latest surveillance job. On a steamy New York City night, she sets out on foot, cocksure and reckless, landing face to face with Trey Popov, a serious rising star in the Trubetzkoy crime family whose eyelashes just might be worth killing for. She escapes the verboten interaction but when the two meet again, Harry plunges undercover as a wholesome schoolteacher who turns Trey’s head despite his compulsion to climb the criminal ladder.
Harry’s unconventional, clandestine scheme and forbidden attraction combust in a violent disaster. All she can do is work toward justice for her murdered police detective-dad. Along the way, she hopes to rescue the good bad guy too far down the wrong road to be saved. For Harry, doing the right thing is also the hardest thing, but crossing some lines isn’t in your DNA when you bleed blue. Devastated by heartache, goaded by ambition, and blinded by attraction, Harry’s allegiances falter, and the differences between academic theory and real life prove that no one makes it out unchanged. Hell, some don’t make it out at all.

This was a thrilling 5 star read. I was pulled in right from the beginning. Finlay is working undercover to try and break a trafficking ring. When a dangerous man starts to show interest in her, things take a scary twist. Drake works with Shadow Defense and he was sent to find her, will he be able to keep her safe? Will she be able to break the case? We get so many twists and turns my head was spinning. We get suspense, danger, and so much more. The author does a great job with her writing and you don’t want to put it down until you’re done. If you like dark suspense thrillers this is the series for you. Each book can be read as a stand alone but I suggest reading from the beginning. 1-click and get started today.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Just a little haunting that’s all, or is it? Divinely Dramatic has a lot going on. And I enjoyed what the author was presenting but it did get confusing at times. Giving the read characters with so much depth that are also gifted. Gifted in a way that they have a special ability. Reading auras, connecting with the unknown, ect. Reading this book was a happy accident and I’m glad I took the chance.
Marcy has been given an opportunity that could go very right or all kinds of wrong. She’s been drafted by her friend to costume a play in her absence. What she wasn’t expecting was a floating white aura and a possible connection to a 50 year curse that she’s determined to figure out sooner rather than later. However once she’s cast in the play in the very role of the person who died she’s determined to come to a conclusion.
Mike lost a bet. Now he has to direct a play not of his choosing. He’s going to do everything in his power to make it successful. However, between Marcy throwing off his senses and unusual happenings around the theater, will he succeed? There’s also the matter of his girlfriend. Art imitating life. It’s hitting rather close to home, meaning their presence and the entity living through similar experiences.
The author gave the reader an interesting adventure. One with laughter, happiness, sadness, and love. I look forward to checking out more books in the future.

When Tess Burton moves to Michigan City and opens her own vintage clothing store, she can’t possibly foresee the changes that are headed her way. On her first day of business, an elderly woman, Esther DeLeon, and her nephew, Trey Dunmore, walk into her store, to inform her of a fashion show featuring clothing from the early 20th century at Esther and Trey’s family home, Carver House. Tess agrees to model, but does not expect to be swept up into a mystery that nobody knew existed. The story had always been that Edward Carver had killed his young bride, Phoebe, on their wedding night, and then himself. However, Tess discovers, through flashes of history brought to her by touching belongs of Phoebe’s including the gown that she is to wear for the fashion show, as well as from Phoebe’s diary, that the story that had always been accepted, may not be accurate. When Trey begins to have similar visions, though he is not open to them at first, the pair must try to sort out the mystery as well as their own feelings for each other and rather or not they are being influenced by the feelings of the deceased couple. This is an excellent book, with great characters and world building. This is both a mystery and a guaranteed happily ever after with ghosts and supernatural elements to keep you guessing.
