My rating: 4 of 5 stars
So far everything I have read by this author has been good. Her writing style has a way of pulling you in and keeping you hooked. Quinnland is a vampire who had a second chance at love, but there is a catch. He has to find his fated mate within three days. Will he find his mate and get a second chance at not only life but happiness?

I don’t know how she does it. Little “bites” (pun intended) of stories, but filled with so much they don’t leave you lacking. I just want to consume (oops, not intended) every single book Naomi has written. They are fun, entertaining, quick reads that make you want to “devour” (also intended) them in one sitting. Her storytelling is unmatched. Her stories are magical and paranormal, but they are unique. They are always full of witty banter and loveable characters. They suck (okay last one I swear) you in, bring you into their world, and leave you satisfied.

The Final Bite by Naomi Valkyrie is another wonderful MM paranormal romance with high stakes. I seem to just devour every single book by this author, and this is absolutely no exception. A gripping and unique read that while short, will absolutely blow you away. I adored the different take on the second chance/fate countdown trope. I’ll never pass up a Naomi Valkyrie book, and I definitely recommend you don’t either!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
A second chance at life after being wrongfully killed, but with a twist, that is especially hard on a vampire with limited time, only being able to go out at night.
3 days to find a mate. If the mate rejects them, they get sent back to purgatory. This is a special event that only happens once every 10 years.
His mate needs help freeing his mother from an alpha that is using her, he also believes they killed his father to achieve her hand in marriage. He gets more surprises than he could imagine

The Final Bite by Naomi Valkyrie – Review by Britney Humphreys
5 stars!
I honestly did not know if I would like this book. I love paranormal romance and romantasy, but MM is not normally in my TBR. However, I was pleasantly surprised! The narrator is the sassy vampire Quinnlan, and I love that the author has him speak to the reader. It’s not something I see frequently, but it definitely helped suck me into the story.
At forty-four pages, this is a quick read, and I admit that I wish it were a little longer. I’d love to learn more about paranormal purgatory. Every ten years one lucky individual is chosen to be sent back to Earth. The catch? They have to find their mate. The hard part? They only have three days to do it. Yikes. I’ve been through multiple husbands, and they were all wrong after years…I’d be sent right back to purgatory at the end of those three days.
I’d happily read more books by this author, and I feel like this is a good book for those (like me) who are first-time readers of MM romance. Also, the epilogue neatly wraps things up, so you’re not left with a hangover or wondering what happens with the characters in the future!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is a really good book. I feel like the author was able to cram so much information into this book, that it really could have lasted longer. It is a very quick read and an amazing short story. There is so much depth logged onto the pages that you don’t really notice how short of a story it is. This book will definitely leave you craving for more. There are so many different paranormal things happening in this book that it could really take you anywhere at any given moment. There are vampires, werewolves, witches and romance. The magic that these characters have and the suspense that they are involved in is what kept me turning the pages. The romance didn’t feel forced but really flowed well with the story line. This book is just really well written and I can’t wait to read more.

Quinnlan has been given a second chance from the paranormal gods – if he can find a mate that accepts him in the next 3 days, he will not have to return to purgatory. When he is dumped at a motel in the middle of nowhere, his chances of finding a mate are bleak. However, thanks to some werewolves wreaking some havoc, he is forced to choose on saving a man’s life and potentially creating a bond with someone who could reject him. Does he save a life and risk returning to purgatory? Or letting him die and continuing on his quest before time runs out?
This was a quick m/m paranormal read that I enjoyed reading. It is a different twist in the paranormal realm that was unique and made for a good story.
What a great short book! This is an M/M paranormal book with vampires, werewolves, witches, mates, &purgatory, and more. This author can pack a big punch in a short story and is becoming one of my go-to authors to read. I hope this is not the end of this story because we can have and want so much more. I just loved this book!

I really enjoyed this book. Although it’s a short MM paranormal romance it’s an intriguing story. The Gods give you a second chance at life as long as you find a mate that accepts you in three days or back to purgatory. I like the characters and the chemistry between the characters. The story flowed well and was fast paced. I only wish it was a longer book and I look forward to reading more stories by this author.

What a cool and original story. I really liked how fast paced this read was while also being super interesting. It’s a story about a vampire getting a second chance to live after being unjustly killed but while also have a time limit and rules to follow. You get all the details you need to understand the story and I wasn’t sure what was going to happen but read through it quickly to find out! Such a great paranormal romance quick read. Definitely enjoyed reading this!

The Final Bite by Naomi Valkyrie
This isn’t the first book I’ve read by the author. The Final Bite is a short little read and won’t take much time out of the day. I enjoyed the read and if you don’t like male and male then this isn’t for you.
Quinn is back from the dead. He’s got three days to find a mate or it’s back to the dead for him. He is stuck in this small town where everyone knows everyone. When he follows a male who gets beat by a couple of wolves and saves him. The quote I chose for Quinn is: “Maybe we can get your mom and dad to babysit this weekend. I’ll take you to a nice place with room service, a luxurious bed, and a hot tub.”
Garrett is trying to find out what the alpha wants with his mom. He wants to find out what happened to his dad as well. When he finds out that he’s made a mate to Quinn he’s upset. The quote I chose for Garrett is: “Raincheck. It seems grandpa has come to visit.”
Highly recommended for Paranormal Romance lovers.

The Final Bite by Naomi Valkyrie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is the first book I have read by the talented Naomi Valkyrie. While I usually don’t read MM books the original story of the book made me give it a try. In the synopsis it is stated that one paranormal person is selected every ten years for a second chance at life. This cycle it is Quinnlan Trinity, a vampire that was murdered by his greedy sister a couple hundred years ago that is given his second chance.
Its officially Halloween when Quinnlan materializes naked in a rundown abandoned motel in the middle of nowhere. Three days in a small family town on the edge of a wolf pack, but a second chance is a second chance and Quinnlan is determined to give it his all to take advantage of the Gods kindness is choosing him. Watching the small town go about their Halloween activities Quinnlan is drawn to a mysterious figure that is walking alone in the dark away from the town. Following them for a short time he catches the scent of three wolves following as well, worried for the seemingly innocent person he continues to follow but from a distance to keep his scent from alerting the wolves. The end of the trail and Quinnlan might be a vampire, but he had never seen a ghost before one appeared before him yelling “HELP HIM” before vanishing again. The mysterious person is laying on the ground badly injured from the warning of the wolves when Quinnlan is faced with a choice. Allow this stranger to die, or give him his blood and save him but putting his fate in the strangers’ hands alone? Quinnlan might be a vampire, but he was always a lover and not a fighter, so he gives his one chance at a second life to save the man, later learning his name is Garrett. Many questions are running through Quinnlan’s mind, who is this man? What is his story? Why was he attacked by wolves? Will he accept my choice to save him, or will I return to purgatory?
For such a short read this book left me feeling satisfied, or better yet complete no cliffhangers or lingering what ifs. Not only was the story complete but the original plot has rules, including that the paranormal must tell their chosen mate the truth about the 3 days, everything so that in the end everyone gets to make their own informed decision on what will be the rest of their lives. One of my favorite things was the writer breaking the fourth wall, saying things we were thinking and telling the reader to use their imaginations which added an extra level of humor in some very intense situations. I look forward to reading more work from the amazing mind of Naomi Valkyrie. World building, storyline, writing style is all awe inspiring and enjoyable to read.

I loved this book so much! Naomi Valkyrie has created yet another mesmerizing story, and I just can’t get enough of it. This paranormal romance is filled with steamy vampires, magic, and plenty of action.
When the gods decide that Quinnlan deserves a second chance at love and life, it sounds like a miracle. Except that there are stipulations to this second chance. Quinnlan has three days to take a mate, or he goes back to purgatory forever. When Quinnlan finds Garrett bleeding out, he has a choice to save him or let him die. If he chooses Garrett and gets rejected, he risks heading back to the one place he doesn’t want to go. Can he really let him die, or will he take the chance for true love?
I am never disappointed by this author’s work, and I’m happy to say that I’m left craving more after reading The Final Bite. I loved every moment of it and highly recommend picking it up for a quick escape!

The Final Bite by Naomi Valkyrie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This book is a short story that I absolutely LOVED!! I REALLY, REALLY hope that the author decides to either continue it later on or add to it somehow. I would love to read more of this story!! So, every 10 years the Gods choose a paranormal being, who was unjustly killed, and they get a second chance at life. Nice right? Well, there are rules though!! First, you only have three days to find and choose a mate. Second, you can’t use any powers to influence said mate (love potions, mind control, etc etc). Third, you can only choose one person. If that person doesn’t work out for any reason, you go right back to purgatory. No Second Chances within this second chance. Your chance is just lost! And lastly, you have to tell your chosen mate about the challenge and said rules. Maybe not so easy after all! Quinlan is the chosen one this decade and boy oh boy does he have his work cut out for him! The gods have placed him in a hotel, in wolf territory, and in the middle of nowhere. These Gods must be out to get him! At least they gave him three changes of clothes and some cash, but funny thing is that they forgot underwear! What the heck?! Was that on purpose?? What are these silly Gods up to!!? Day one is passing quickly. By the time he catches some animals to eat (as he is a vampire) and looks around the SUPER small town he’s ready to get some sleep and work out a plan for this challenge. Scoping out the town at night might bring some more answers about the town and it’s residents. Will he be able to find a mate time? Three days in a small town with less people could be a big issue. Maybe he needs to take a day to travel somewhere else and up his chances? With not much money he won’t be able to get far. Should he let the alpha in the area know about his challenge? He doesn’t want to tick off the locals and have a wolf war on his hands too! Man oh man you are in for a treat with this one! Like I said it is a short story, but the author packs in some great stuff in those few pages. Give it a shot and see what Quinnlan ends up doing AND what he ends up dealing with.

If you are even the slightest bit into stories of the paranormal and steamy romance, I would take a shot on this book! (And even if you aren’t because you will be.) This author is excellent at telling stories that are intriguing and making paranormal characters not only relatable but compelling. I picked up this book and could not put it down. I love paranormal stories – not so much romance, but I loved this one. Quinnlan Trinity is a vampire who must choose a mate in three days or be sent back to and remain in the afterlife. This creative story will keep your eyes glued to the pages as they flip. It is easy to read and get lost in. 5 stars.

This is a great quick read. I have loved every boon this author has wrote and this is another one to add to that list. This author does an amazing job of making paranormal romances gripping and captivating. Even though this is a short read the story feels complete and not left unfinished or like its missing parts as some short stories do.
Quinnlan has been give the opportunity of a second chance at life. The catch is he has to find his mate within 3 days. The additional snag is there is no second guessing or changing his mind once he has made a choice.
When he first meets Garrett he is in a bad way after being beaten up by a wolf pack. Quinnlan has a choice does he save his life and in doing so accept him as a mate or does he let him die? What will be Garrett’s reaction when he find out the consequences of that choice and can Garrett really be Quinnlan’s mate or he is the wrong choice and Quinnlan’s signed himself back into purgatory?

Quinnlan Trinity has been chosen from the paranormal world to get a second chance at life. Every ten years the gods choose someone who has been unjustly killed and give them a second chance. Except the gods seem a bit twisted as there are strings attached to this second chance. Not only does Quinnlan only have three days to find a mate but the gods have dropped him in an abandoned motel in the middle of nowhere. How is he supposed to find a mate in a place in the middle of nowhere?
Then Quinnlan finds a man bleeding out after an encounter with a group of wolf shifters. To save the man’s life he must feed him his own blood but in doing so this would bond him forever as his mate. He would also have to tell the man once he recovered that they are now bonded together forever, and Quinnlan has no idea what the man’s reaction will be. In either scenario he risks being doomed back to the afterlife.
Another intriguing and entertaining story by this author. Although the story was short, it packed a punch. The characters were interesting, and the scenes were well developed. I loved that the character of Quinnlan had so many facets to his personality. He was strong, courageous, kind, and witty. The added bits of humor throughout added a nice element to the other serious aspects of the storyline. A great read!

I have read a few of this author’s books and this was a good start to a new series. I was quite impressed with the story line and how the book progressed. I felt that the author brought the characters to life and I really felt as though I was in the midst of the action.
The characters a very unique as is the plot. I like how the story all be it short had enough backstory and enough filler that it really brought everything together. I like how the chemistry is between the lead and his mate. I really am very impressed with the way the author’s writing style empowers the characters and draws in the reader. I look forward to reading more from this series and author.
