Alpha's Claim book review


A book review of the novel: Alpha's Claim: Urban Fantasy Romance Standalone Book 7 of 9 in the Kingdom of Wolves series written by Amelia Hutchins.

Theme: Werewolves, Shifters, Vampires, Demons, Strong Heroine, Alp    es, Pregnancy, Escape, Hiding, 

Rating: 3 stars out of 5. 

If you've read any of the other series of the author such as the The Fae Chronicles then it's pretty much the same except that instead of Fae you have shifters. Also, the author pretty much copied and pasted the bio's of all the characters even intermingled some names, and added a similiar plot line but with a twist: girl doesn't want guy hurt so she lies to save life & rejects his mate claim, years later he returns with full vengeance to make her pay, they of course argue & f*ck, in fact there is lots & lots of sex with the two main characters even though they supposedly can't stand each other. Then something happens and he thinks she's even more awful, convinces her pack too so everyone hates her, she gets really, really hurt, more sex, still hate, more sex, still hate, more sex, she runs away, he hunts her down after finding out she really isn't a bad person, makes her come back, with of course, one more bad thing and then bammmm, they all live happily ever after. No grovelling. No forgiveness need.
...ugh, past me the puke bucket.

Oh, should be we talk about the 'book stuffing' at the start of this book or is everyone else ok with clicking through 21 pages just to get to chapter 1. ????

Grab the book here in the USA or here in Australia.

Have you read it, am I right? 

At His Will book review

A book review of the novel: At His Will written by Trent Evans

Theme: Alpha Male,Bully,Wealth, Humiliation, Dark Romance, Spanking, Punishments, Betrayal, Blackmail, Thief, Sick Child

This book is about a girl who needs money desperately, so she steals it from work but she gets caught then she ultimately gets blackmailed by her boss: do whatever he says, when he says or go to jail.
He punishes her, humiliates her as expected. 
There are some good scenes within the book but then there are some scenes that let the book down. 
First off, I don't like how he takes controlf of her in regards to her child which is actually kind of a minor thing and towards the end of the book but it still bugged me.
Then there was how, at the end of the contract, he declares his love and she immediately accepts it bla bla bla, yet only a few pages ago he was still calling her a whore.
The last chapter had the nanny but why? Her contract was up with her boss so she shouldn't be in the story anymore, it just didn't fit.
The Epiloque was just weird and didn't fit in with the timeline and actually made the storyline that much weirder, it left an odd feeling about the book and honestly, I don't think I'll ever be rereading this.

Rating: 4 stars out of 5. 

Grab the book here in Australia  or here in the USA.
