Wolf Hunt by Paige Tyler

A STORM IS BREWING...

Remy Boudreaux is back in his hometown, New Orleans. He's there with three of his fellow Dallas SWAT officers for a week of training with the NOLA PD. On the eve of a tropical storm, Remy and his buddies prowl the French Quarter. One tantalizing scent captures Remy's senses, forcing him to follow until he is face to face with Triana Bellamy—his beautiful high school crush.

After reconnecting, Remy and Triana are close—very. Remy struggles to keep things casual. Ever since his partner—and first love—was killed on the job, he's kept women at a distance.

But when a mysterious wolf pendant ropes them both into danger, Remy's protective instincts kick in. He may have to reveal his true self... and hope Triana accepts him.

M/F Shifter Romance

I really enjoyed this story. Triana and Remy complement each other wonderfully and I liked how they could banter with the other pack members just as easily. I felt that the pack members had an unbreakable bond and despite having so many alphas around, they made it work.

I love New Orleans, so the setting was fun. However, I felt that the pack members didn't really appreciate where they were. Also, I think that if we had been able to see more development between the two main characters, it would have helped the story be less "typical shifter."

The "hot" scenes were somewhat boring and despite the thought that they could have been seriously scorching, these didn't really portray what I thought, could have been an explosive relationship.

Overall, I hope the other shifters get their stories too, who don't have one already.


Sarah – ☆☆☆
Definitely more paranormal romance than urban fantasy, this is a fairly predictable shifter romance. This is the first book I’ve read in the series but the tropes are immediately familiar. This story follows Remy, one of a brotherhood of alpha werewolves/SWAT officers. Returning to his hometown of New Orleans with some SWAT teammates, he scents his fated mate and falls instantly in love with her.

A forensic scientist and a former high school friend, Triana is the typical paranormal romance fated mate. She is brave and intelligent but ultimately, she needs Remy’s help and protection when her search for her father’s killer entangles her in Remy’s current vice case. Similarly, Remy could be one of many similar alpha men in any number of paranormal romance books. He has a troubled past. He struggles to accept the idea of a fated mate. He feels an overwhelming urge to protect Triana… Anyways. There isn’t much that makes these two unique. I felt like I’d read these characters many times before. They are both beautiful and good – and a little bit too predictable for me.

There are some explicit sex scenes in this book but the “harder, faster” nature of the first one read as more painful than pleasurable. This, combined with a grocery list style recitation of various sex acts, had me skimming the sex scenes pretty early on. The sex felt more clinical than sensual and I didn’t feel it did much to build Remy and Triana’s relationship.

Ultimately, this is a conventional shifter romance. The main characters are likeable and the tropes are familiar. It is a quick, easy read with some entertaining action scenes.

In the Company of Wolves by Paige Tyler

He opened his mouth to order her to drop the MP5 she had aimed at him, but nothing would come out. It was like she'd robbed him of the ability to speak. Shooting her wasn't an option, though. And the idea of arresting her didn't make him feel any better.

There's a new gang of criminals in town who are organized and ruthless in the extreme. When Eric Becker, along with the rest of the Dallas SWAT team, ends up in the middle of a shootout, he immediately senses werewolves-a lot of them. Turns out, the new bad guys are a pack of wolf shifters.

In a spray of gunfire, Becker comes face-to-face with the most gorgeous woman he's ever seen. Becker does the logical thing. He hides her and leaves the scene with the rest of his team.

Jayna Winston has no idea why that SWAT guy helped her, but she's glad he did. Ever since she and her pack mates got mixed up with those Eastern European mobsters, everything had pretty much fallen apart.

So what's a street-savvy thief like Jayna going to do with a hot alpha-male wolf who's a police officer?

Rachael – ☆☆☆☆☆
I really enjoyed this book even though I hadn't read the first two books in this series. We did get to see the two previous couples (or who I assume they were) but the story was strong enough and I didn't feel like I was missing out on much from having not read the others.

There was a lot of action and some seriously hot romance going on. I loved the SWAT aspect along with the pack and Albanians. I couldn't put the book down. There was so much going on, I just had to know what was going to happen and how it was all going to work out.

I can't wait to read more from this author in the future!


Ruthie – ☆☆☆
Although the third in the series, I think that it can be read successfully as a standalone. There are hints as to what the other books led to, but the romance here is new.

I really enjoyed the story, felt that the plot was strong enough in all ways, except one – why did Eric feel the need to keep the whole thing secret from his team? I am still not sure that I get that bit. That said, it did not reduce my enjoyment overall. In fact, even though I have read many paranormal stories in the past, I liked that this one was a bit different, that the Weres weren't so rigid in their thinking, or understanding of their roles. It was refreshing and made plot twists more realistic. The dynamics between the characters worked partly due to this and helped the story along. It ends well, and with plenty of openings for more stories in the future. I look forward to seeing whose turn it is next!
