My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Annabelle has been living life all over the world since being separated from the love of her life at just 16 years old. Finding home and friendship in her travel buddy Spence, she flits across the globe as an animal photographer. After she is forced home suddenly, she comes face to face with the man who got away – Derek Sumerland. Both Anna and Derek believed that they had been spurned by the other, in the face of Anna’s sudden move as a teenager, and seeing each other again is a powerful experience. Is this really true love, as Derek insisted all those years ago?
This is a good paranormal love story with an interesting romance between Anna and Derek. I enjoyed the writing style, and could empathize with the characters. A good read.

This author is just simply out of this world, the word building is amazing, their character development is perfect, and the plot was so amazing that it left me craving more. While this is the third installment in this paranormal series, it is not essential to read the previous two, but I would highly recommend reading the whole series as they are all just simply amazing. In this installment we follow Macy and Brandon and trust me when I say that it is a crazy roller coaster ride that will hold your attention until the end.

Brandon Quarters, werewolf and funny guy. Decides it’s time to get serious in his own life. After a wild night and possibly finding his mate. He entered the military. Macy Cutler, always trying to be well rounded finds her path changing after one night of passion. Deciding to follow the path she is on, she comes to realize she is stronger than she thought. These two people know they are missing something, but can they discover what is missing? How will these two people find their true mate? Only reading this story will answer that question. My recommendation is that you read this series in order. Get to know the characters and fall in love with them all. This author never disappoints. Her story is well written and fast paced. You may even find yourself engaged and unable to put this book down. No Spoilers will be found here.

Claiming My Mate (Wolf Hollow Pack #1)Claiming My Mate by Nicole Howl
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is such a great fated mates paranormal romance. Lily is a servant working for the royal shifter family. She is horribly mistreated by one of the royal guard, but she feels herself drawn to Jason just as much as he is to her. They face so many obstacles along the way, not the least of which is the difference in status. Jason is the complete opposite of his father. Even though he is the future alpha of the pack, status has never been a big deal for him. He is quick to help the servants unload his family bags and he never treats them like they’re less than him. Jason and Lily fall hard for each other and even though she feels like she isn’t good enough for him she can’t help craving him. This is a must read that you are not going to want to miss. I can’t wait to read the next book in this series!

AH! This book had me totally immersed in its world. I will admit, I have a weakness for wolf shiters, so maybe that is why I enjoyed this read so much. I loved the way the author showed the playfull side of the wolves along with the side that seeks dominance. If I am being totally honest with myself, I would shift into a wolve, and proceed to chase my tail for at least 10 minutes, haha! I loved Prince Jason, and I actually loved Lily! Experiencing the way her confidence shifts was great. Jason is a cinnamon roll and I am excited to see how he develops in the next books. The book was filled with excitement and action. I wish the main conflict would have been resolved just a little quicker so that I could experience more of what happens next, but I suppose that is what the next books are for! So excited to continue this series. Will be keeping my eyes open for when the next books come out!

It Just Comes Natural is the most heart-ache-inducing book so far in this series. This is a very “realistic” take of what I feel would happen with true mates under the right circumstances. Finding your soulmate only to have them ripped away by circumstance is such a mature take on this genre! But don’t you worry, this fantastic author makes it well worth the ride!

Claiming My Mate: A Forbidden-lovers romance is the first book in the Wolf Hollow Pack series. I enjoyed this book and the characters. Prince Jason is a significant romantic lead. Lily is a human servant of the pack. I wanted the best for the new couple, and I like the story and how it dealt with sensitive subjects. There is rape, so be warned if that might be a trigger. It is handled well by the author. I like the forbidden romance element of the story and am interested to see if some of the secondary characters will play a larger role in future books in the series. I enjoyed this book and look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

This book may have set me back into my paranormal romance reading again! I found myself having a hard time really sinking into them recently but I can honestly say that funk might be over. Jason and Lily pulled me right into their world. There’s a bit of hard subject matters but I liked how it was all handled. And you just as easily connect with side characters also which was great! I’m so excited I gave this one a try and am looking forward to the next one. Five stars and highly recommended!

For starters, Lily is overall a complete badass of a woman when she wants to be. She’s a human slave at this pack’s castle serving for the royal family. She gets bullied a lot and nothing is done about it. Well, when a worse bully comes in and does something that should not be done, she ends up getting the attention of Prince Jason of the Wolf Hollow pack. Prince Jason just got back to the castle with his family and detected a scent that smelled amazing to him. After a couple scenes, he ends up finding Lily. It takes a lot of paths and challenges, but the read is worth finding out! I’m ready to read the second book! 🙂

An enjoyable and exciting paranormal romance, featuring wolf shifters and fated mates, which had me hooked from start to finish. This is the third book featuring the werewolves of the ‘Powder River Pack’, but it can be read as a standalone story. Werewolf Brandon Quarters is seen as the jokester of the pack but has decided to join the military. However, in a night out before he’s deployed he meets a women in a bar, who happens to be his mate. As soon as Brandon returns home he’s determined to find the women and make her his, but there’s a surprise waiting for him at the pack bar. Macy Cutler has always had a lot of expectations on her shoulders, desperate to be a good daughter and not follow in her sister’s reckless footsteps. This all changes following one night of passion with a man she met in a bar. Years later and Macy has overcome lives many obstacles to make a life of her own, but she’s never forgotten her one night stand. The characters and setting are brought vividly to life through the descriptive narrative, making me feel immersed in the storyline . I found both Brandon and Macy to be likeable characters and their instant chemistry really came across in the story. I look forward to future books in this series.

What another great instalment to this series. I absolutely loved this book from the moment I started reading. The characters were so interesting and complex. I found them to be engaging and had such a strong connection. I wanted everything to work out between them, even given everything they had to overcome.
I loved how well the story was written too. I was hooked straight away and could not put it down. This is easily my favourite book of the series so far. I cannot wait to see what is to come next.

This is the 3rd book in a great paranormal romance series that I’ve really come to love. I don’t read a lot of paranormal romance but this book/series is leading me to want to read more of it. I have read quite a few of this author’s books now and have enjoyed all of them. I really enjoy her writing style.
In this book, the story flows really well and there is always something happening to keep you gripped to the story and wanting to read more.
We had met Macy and got to know her a bit in the second book, whereas Brandon only played a small part as he was away serving his country. In this book we get their story and it’s a great one. Having met their daughter Miranda in book 2 I thought I wouldn’t like her. Although she’s quite naughty, she’s actually a very loving little girl and she wormed her way into my heart.
I really hope there is much more to come from this series as I really need to know what’s going on with Miles and Alexa: and Roper surely has a story that needs telling.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was entertaining tale of Royal shifters and the servants that serve them. Jason falls for his human servant. There is plenty of adventure, romance, a bit of violence and a little darkness. There were some twists I did not see coming. There were some characters that lacked something I can’t put my finger on. I did feel the characters were written well. I do wish the story could have been a bit longer so I could have had more. I am such a book hog that way. The plot was enjoyable. The King, though, he was intimidating. Overall, I loved the book and hope there will be more.

Book 3 was truly a feel good romance. This story brings romance, drama, suspense, and the question of the strength of a fated bond. It was vividly told and played across the imagination with great ease, This story brings us to Brandon and Macy. They meet incidentally one night in which they realize they are mates and it turns into a night of passion. After that night they part ways until they are reunited again down the line, and Brandon sees Macy is not alone this time. Its a great story and it will definitely hold your attention until the very end!

Call of the Alpha is SUCH a great read. Again this author takes a spin with the traditional shifter paranormal romance! I didn’t even know I needed a single dad alpha until reading this book! Bonus: the female lead is wicked smart. A wonderful addition to this series. I hope the next one is even better!

A Second Chance was such a heart-warming story! This is a true second chance romance beginning with angst. True mates ripped apart by fate, will they find their way back to each other? This is such a refreshing take on fated mates from the human perspective which we don’t often see. Great beginning to this series. I am definitely following this author!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This story was phenomenal! From the first page, I could not put it down and when I finished, it left me wanting more! Lily is a servant of the Wolf Hallow royal family. Though she didn’t choose to be in her position, she wants nothing more than to stay out of the spotlight. Some unwanted attention brought her into the spotlight she didn’t want.

Jason is the future king and is just waiting for his chance to claim the spot as Alpha, until he meets his mate. The trouble is, she doesn’t know, nor is it a welcome title to anyone involved. Jason soon realizes he will have to fight for what he wants.

Jason and Lily’s story has a little of everything; action, adventure, romance, humor, and even some unexpected turns. I loved that I felt like I was in the story with them. I felt their emotions resonate within me as I turned page after page. It is a true story of fighting for the ones you love! Plus, who doesn’t love a little paranormal romance, especially when wolves are involved?! I can not wait to read more Wolf Hollow stories in the future!

Everyone loves an Alpha and when he finds his mate it makes it that much better!
Rylie was beautiful and strong with a good soul. Mason was a single dad and the Alpha of Powder River Pack. He was doing the best with what he was given, and leading his pack with high hopes of finding his eternal mate. Together their story was passion pain, and acceptance with a beautiful HEA. This was a great werewolf story and I am eager for what’s next.

This book is a well written short story by an author who is new to me. I was impressed with how well the author described the scenes, things the characters were thinking and feeling, and how well the main characters interacted as things changed. I was able to connect to the main characters of Lily and Jason as they helped each other navigate changes. I love how Lily grew stronger as she learns more about the shifter world as a human who was turned. She compliments Jason, the future pack Alpha, in many ways with her strength and caring personality. I’m looking forward to reading the next book in the series.

Lily is a human servant in the royal household of Wolf Hollow. Her life is turned upside down when the family returns and she is attacked by a guard. Jason, the prince, catches her scent and realizes that she is his mate. Everything seems to be set against them meeting and ultimately being together. As they find their way to each other, will they be enough? Can Jason survive a challenge to them being together?

This is my first time reading this author. It caught my eye, and I couldn’t resist picking it up! It was a quick read and full of action. There were surprises throughout the book that kept me reading to see how it was all going to work out. I do love a good werewolf book! I won’t give away anything, but it did end the book at a bit of a cliff hanger. Looking forward to the next book and seeing how it goes!

This shifter romance is unlike any I have read before! Lily just wants to go unnoticed and do her chores. Being a servant for wolf royalty is not easy and keeps you on guard. Jason is just trying to make it until he becomes the Alpha. He definitely wasn’t looking for his mate and neither was Lily. This story is very fast paced and does have some triggers. I really enjoyed the writing style and the unexpected plot twist! Looking forward to the second book!

This was a pretty good read! The writing was really good and immersive, and the character were…..interesting. I liked the female MC and the male MC at least. What I didn’t enjoy about this novel was the violence against the women and the human slaves. It felt excessive to me in a way. One thing I liked was that Jason, the male MC, didn’t seem to feel this way and wanted to change it. So there is that at least. While I personally didn’t enjoy some of the happenings in this novel, I know some people do and this book was really well written and I was easily captured into the story. I would read more from this author in the future, and I can’t wait to do so.

This was a quick read but it packed a punch. There is a lot happening in this story, and it’s told from multiple pov’s. I read this book in one sitting and when I was done I wanted more. There are so many good characters in this story. We got to see character growth and change in both Jason and Lilly which will help them with what they will be up against next. This book touches on some sensitive subjects that might be a trigger for some people. I found this story to be engaging, emotional, and written in a way that sucks you right into it. I cannot wait to read the next one! This is a must read.

This was a fast paced paranormal romance, featuring wolf shifters, that had me gripped from start to finish. The very likeable and relatable heroine of the story Lily, has been a captive of the Huntington’s, the Wolf Hollow Royals for a year and has been working as their slave. Lily is a human among the Wolf Hollow Pack, of wolf shifters. The Royals have been away touring their pack lands but when they return Lily is surprised by her reaction to them, especially the Prince. The future Alpha and King of Wolf Hollow, Jason is biding his time until he can take over from his father, the Alpha and end his terrible regime. On returning home one sniff of Lily and he knows she’s his mate despite being a mere slave girl and a human. Jason is determined to be a good mate to Lily, but with his parents against the match, another wolf wanting to claim Lily, and the rebels at the gates, all conspiring to keep them apart, Lily and Jason may not get their HEA.

I liked the main characters, Lily and Jason and their chemistry came across in the writing. I was especially engaged with Lily, and really felt for her and the tragic circumstances she found herself in. The other characters and setting were brought vividly to life through the descriptive narrative, immersing me in the story. The storyline does deal with some sensitive issues, and although things happen ‘off page’, they do have a significant impact on the storyline. I hope some of the secondary characters mentioned will also get their own stories. I found myself engrossed in this story and was shocked by the cliffhanger ending, so I am now waiting impatiently for book two in this series!

The writing style is that if your typical teenage romance supernatural bein novel. Lily and Jason are well. Jason, I liked his character and the development I saw in his character through the book. Lily is subservient as a slave to the wolves. What happens when the wolf Prince mate is the servant girl. How will this work? There are many twists turns and Surprises in this book. I didn’t expect it to end like that. Leaves you wanting more.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the 2nd book in a great paranormal romance series. As much as I enjoyed the first book in the series, this one is even better. I loved Mason and Rylie’s story. Each book in the series can be read as a standalone but I’d advise reading the whole series, in order, to get the most out of it. I assure you, you won’t be disappointed.
One of my favourite tropes has to be single dads. In my experience of reading many, many books, single dads are usually awesome dads with fantastic relationships with their kids. I could have spent hours reading about Mason and his little boy/werewolf Archer. Archer is absolutely adorable and he totally stole my heart. The final chapter, which is told from Archer’s POV just pulls on the heartstrings. I also loved reading his growing relationship with Rylie as she and Mason progress through their relationship.
This book is quite a bit longer than the first book in the series and I’m so glad that I got more of Mason, Rylie and Archer is I was really enthralled by their story.
One thing that I really want now is Mason’s brother Miles’ story. I really need to know what’s going on with him and Alexa.
100% recommend this book.

This is the first book in the Wolf Hallow Pack series and wow what a beginning. I love shape-shifter romances stories anyway. I love the protectivness and the passion that is involved but this goes beyond that with danger as well.

Lily is a human servant to the Huntington wolves. She wants a normal quiet life but when one of the guards decides to force her to be his it changes her life and her position in that household forever.

Jason is Prince of the pack. His destiny is to become Alpha to the pack. But one meeting with Lily changes all that. Knowing he has no found his fated mate he now needs to prove to her that they belong together, something that he and his wolf already know. However he also needs to protect her from the guard who seeks to own her.
Can Jason save Lily and be with her? What will the consequences of their love be?
The story ends on a cliff hanger and i cannot wait for the next book in this series.

I love reading paranormal books like this and was immediately drawn in from the first page. I have not had a chance to read books by this author before and I was immersed and could not put the book down. Lily is a servant who has had a very hard life who tries to stay hidden and out of sight. Jason is the son of the alpha, meaning that he is the next in line to run the pack. Jason and Lily face some hardships and learn to work together to overcome the obstacle. I cannot wait until the second book comes out so I can know what happens in the next chapters of their lives.

For anyone who enjoys “fated mate” werewolf books, this is a REALLY good one! Even though it follows that pretty common theme, it still manages to be engaging and interesting. There are twists and turns and plenty of steamy romance. Highly recommended, and while it can be read on its own, I would suggest reading the other books so you get to know all the characters better. I think this might be the best one of the series!
