Review:

Wild Wolf Mate by Dianna Love is the 5th book in her wonderful League of Gallize Shifters series.  I have said this previously, I am a big fan of Dianna Love, and I look forward to reading all of her books, as she always gives us great exciting, fun stories, with fantastic characters.   Background: The Gallize shifters are run by an ancient and powerful shifter, and they are the good guys, who secretly protect humans from the bad shifter groups.

Adrian, our hero, whom we met previously, is a Gallize Wolf Shifter, and he continues to have problems with his wolf, which happened on a rescue mission when they were locked in a cage.  The Guardian has sent Adrian on a mission, hoping he would find a way to reconcile with his wolf “Red” (nickname is Mad Red), who is deranged since that mission). Because of this, Adrian lives a tortured existence constantly fighting his angry wolf.

Jazlyn, our heroine, is a healer who helped save Adrian’s life in the previous book, but she is on the run from shifters, as she killed one shifter, but she did so in self defense and has to find a way to prove it. Jazlyn is also trying to find and save some female shifters that were kidnapped. Adrian will come to her rescue, as he knows she is his mate; but can help her prove her innocence?  

It is Jazlyn, who tries to heal the bond between Adrian and Red, but she knows it is a slow process.  The two very quickly succumb to their feelings for each other, which complicates things for both; The Guardian wants Adrian to find her, and Jazlyn is determined to save her friends.  I really loved Jazlyn and Adrian together, not to mention their wolves also feel that the pull of being mates. 

What follows is an exciting action-packed story, with Jazlyn getting caught and Adrian having to come to her rescue. The last half of the book was great, especially as we raced to the climatic ending.  I was on the edge of my seat during the tense non-stop action-packed last half of the book.  I do not want to ruin it for you by giving any spoilers, but this was an edge of your seat suspense that had us holding our breaths to find out if they would survive, and if Red would help Adrian. 

Dianna Love once again gives us another wonderful story, and a series that continues to amaze us with each book, which are always fun, exciting, action packed adventures; and with a great sexy couple.   

As I always come to expect with Dianna Love, Wild Wolf Mate was a tense, sexy, exciting adventure; with a great couple and wonderful secondary characters.  If you are not reading Dianna Love, you need to start, as she always creates exciting fun stories.   I cannot wait for the next book in this series.

Scent of a Mate by Dianna Love – a Review

 

Amazon / B&N / Kobo / Google Play / Apple / BAM / Book Depository

 

Description:
Gan never wanted to be a shifter and now he’s got a monster Siberian Tiger inside of him. He’s spent his whole life as a prisoner. This is no different. The minute he convinces the happens, Gan plans to vanish and live in a wilderness, leaving shifters behind forever, because he’ll have control of the crazy tiger. He gets his chance at freedom by hiding the fact that his animal is still insane. All he has to do is keep his tiger buttoned down long enough to observe on a mission and pay back a debt he owes to a sexy cougar shifter. That might have worked perfectly if Gan’s heart hadn’t fallen victim to the female running the mission … and if his tiger hadn’t busted loose.

As a cougar shifter, Scarlett spends most of her days rescuing female shifters from predators. She has no intention of calling in the marker Gan owes her until she needs a rogue to help her save an innocent from powerful people she’s avoided her whole life. Unlike the other Gallize, an angry Gan has no problem breaking a few rules, and she’s seen the true man inside who will protect a vulnerable innocent. She had a sound plan, one that would cost only her if things went bad, until that crazy tiger shifter destroyed any hope of walking away from him. When Gan and Scarlett face impossible odds, each of them must put the one thing they hold most dear on the line to protect the other.

Every story is stand alone.

 

 

Review:

Scent of a Mate by Dianna Love is the 4th book in her wonderful League of Gallize Shifters series. I am a big fan of Dianna Love, and I look forward to reading any of her books, as she always gives us great exciting, fun stories, with fantastic characters.   Background: The Gallize shifters are run by an ancient and powerful shifter, and they are the good guys, who secretly protect humans from the bad shifter groups. 

Gan, our hero, is a Siberian tiger shifter, and has spent most of his life as a prisoner.  Gan has become a new member of the Gallize shifters, but he still feels like a prisoner and wants to run away to gain his freedom.  Since he is a newbie, Gan is assigned to work with other Gallize shifters, to learn how to bond and deal with his tiger. 

Scarlett, our heroine, is a cougar shifter, who spends her time freeing other female shifters, as well as trying to find her sister.  She knows she is coming up against a powerful shifter, and requests help from the Gallize leader, who sends two of his men, which will include Gan, who follows as part of his training.

Gan, is immediately attracted to Scarlett, and despite his language barrier, she works with him how to behave, and learn to bond with his tiger.  Scarlett finds herself becoming attracted to handsome hunk, Gan, but will not allow herself to be bonded to any man. She realizes that Gan’s strength is powerful and she can use him to help free her kidnapped friends.  In a short time, their romance will escalate to a scorching level, with both unable to hide their strong feelings; so much so that they will each put their own lives in danger to protect one another.

We learn more about the female shifters that Scarlett is trying to free, and I expect more future stories for them.   There are two powerful villains in this story, both after Scarlett, and Gan will do anything to protect her.  

What follows is an exciting action-packed story, but I do not want to ruin it for you by giving any spoilers. The last half of the book was great, especially as we raced to the climatic ending.  I was on the edge of my seat during the last half of the book. My favorite character in this book was Scarlett, as she was a fabulous heroine.  I liked Gan, but I did find him somewhat annoying early on; but in the end they made a great couple.

Dianna Love once again gives us another wonderful story, and a series that continues to wow us and was a fun, exciting, action packed adventure; with a great sexy couple, which you should be reading.  As I always come to expect with Dianna Love, Scent of a Mate was a fun, exciting adventure; great sexy couple, wonderful secondary characters, and bad villains.  I cannot wait for the next book. I strongly suggest you start with Gray Wolf Mate, if you have not read this series and enjoy the ride.

Stalking His Mate by Dianna Love – a Review

Stalking His Mate by Dianna Love – a Review

 

Amazon / B&N / Kobo / BAM / Book Depository

 

Description:
Having spent her life as a captive, Siofra escapes when her power surfaces to save her from an attack, which exposes her as a nonhuman. All she wants to do is find her brother who is also being hunted, then vanish to live free from shifters. That was the plan and it would have worked if a golden-eyed jaguar shifter hadn’t stepped between her and a dangerous jackal, throwing a major kink in her escape when she falls for the sexy protector.

Rory didn’t choose to be a jaguar shifter and is determined to not mate even though he faces death from the Gallize mating curse if he doesn’t. The end may come sooner than he expects when his jaguar loses the ability to heal them, but that doesn’t prevent Rory from racing in to save a young woman from a vicious predator. The moment Siofra is in his arms and his power reaches out to hers, he struggles against the primal pull of the one woman he’s drawn to as a mate. Even if he didn’t feel the need to end his bloodline, she hates shifters.

None of that will matter if Rory fails to stop the deadly Black River Pack from using Siofra in a grisly experiment when she’s caught in a trap.

 

Review:

Stalking His Mate by Dianna Love is the 3rd book in her wonderful League of Gallize Shifters series. I am a big fan of Dianna Love, and I look forward to reading any of her books, as she always gives us great exciting, fun stories, with fantastic characters.   I am happy to say I loved Stalking His Mate. Background: The Gallize shifters are run by an ancient and powerful shifter, and they are the good guys, who secretly protect humans from the bad shifter groups. 

In Stalking His Mate, we meet Siofra, our heroine, right from the start, as she is running away from killing one of the guards who was trying to rape her.  Siofra has been a captive by the Cadells Jackal pack almost all of her life; she also has the ability to see ghosts. Siofra was able to escape when one of the ghosts tried to help her, and suddenly she had powers that would save her life. Now she is on the run, knowing that the Jackals will be searching for her.

Rory, our hero, is a Jaguar shifter and a member of the Gallize Shifters. On a mission with his teammates, he comes across a young woman being attacked, and goes to her rescue.  Before he steps in to help her, he notices that she suddenly gets free, killing her attacker using her hands.  She manages to help Rory with the other attackers, but runs away before he can talk to her.  Eventually, Siofra and Rory will find each other and join hands to help her find her ‘brother’, as well as be one step ahead of the attackers.  A slow build romance begins with Rory and Siofra, with each having their own trust issues that would make their romance destined to fail.

Rory is also undergoing some issues with his Jaguar, which is affecting his ability to heal; even the Guardian tries to help Rory, and tells him he needs to come to terms with his own attitude and accept his Jaguar.  Rory also refused to acknowledge that Siofra was his mate, even though Ferrell (his Jaguar knew she was his).  

What follows is an intense exciting action packed story that finds both Rory and Siofra constantly in danger.  The evil Jackal and Wolf packs are killing humans, and determined to get Siofra and her brother back into their control.   I do not want to ruin it for you by giving any spoilers, but this was an edge of your seat suspense that had us holding our breaths to find out if they would survive.  The last half of the book was a wild exciting non- stop, action packed race to save them all.

Dianna Love once again gives us another wonderful story, and a series that continues to wow us and look forward to more of the same. 

As I always come to expect with Dianna Love, Stalking his Mate was a fun, exciting, tense adventure; great sexy couple, wonderful secondary characters, and bad villains.  I cannot wait for the next book. I strongly suggest you start with Gray Wolf Mate and enjoy the ride.

Mating A Grizzly by Dianna Love – a Review

 

Mating a Grizzly
League of Gallize Shifters series – Book #2
by Dianna Love
Release Date: January 30, 2018

Amazon / B&N / Kobo / iTunes

 

Description:
MATING A GRIZZLY is book two in the unusual League Of Gallize Shifters series (all stand alone paranormal romances).

Justin is an elite black ops warrior on a unique shifter team. He’s as deadly as they come and determined to succeed on every mission. He turns into a monster grizzly and rushes into danger without hesitation to do his duty … but he’s having second thoughts on his current assignment. If there’s one thing he can’t tolerate it is arrogant people like the jerks he grew up around who acted superior to him. Justin can’t believe he’s stuck playing bodyguard for a Russian shifter princess. He’d rather face down a pack of armed terrorists alone than spend time with a cold-hearted prima donna. Except, Elianna turns out to be unlike anything he expected. She’s hot, but he’d like to see her smile. He’s on a mission to get that smile—and more. First he has to stop the assassin trying to kill him and kidnap her.

Having lived her life as an outcast among her own kind, Elianna hates being called princess. She’s the ugly mistake of a Russian grizzly shifter who got her polar bear mother pregnant while on a sabbatical from his mate. With the exception of the little boy she saved after his clan abandoned him, men are the bane of Elianna’s life. When she makes a miscalculation under duress, her biological father coerces Elianna into accepting a deal with high stakes if she fails.

Justin is unlike any other man, human or shifter, she’s ever been around. He makes her want things she can’t have—like mating—because the deal she struck prevents a relationship with him or she’ll never see the little boy again who is everything to her. Her plan was simple and doable, but meeting Justin complicated everything.

 

 

Review:

Mating a Grizzly by Dianna Love is the 2nd book in her League of Gallize Shifters series. The Gallize shifters, are run by an ancient and powerful shifter (Guardian), who secretly protect humans from bad shifter groups.  In Mating a Grizzly, we meet Elianna, our heroine, right from the start, as she is running away from a group of wolf shifters. When she gets caught, she fears for the life of her younger brother, Nico, but just in time, she is rescued by her father’s bear pack.  Elianna’s father is a powerful grizzly, who is married with other children, and looks upon her as his first child, by a woman he left long ago.  Elianna is the outcast princess.  To save Nico, she makes a deal with her father to go to the United States and mate with a member of Clan Boudreaux; once she does that they will send Nico to live with her.

Justin, our hero, is one of the Gallize shifters, and the Guardian forces him to take on an assignment to protect and bring a princess to her new Clan.  Justin, is a grizzly shifter, and is unhappy about this assignment to be a bodyguard for some princess.  He prefers to stay back and help his friend and partner recover from a previous attack (part of earlier novella).  When Justin meets Eli, she is not what he expected; as she is strong, determined and smart, though she does have a language barrier being Russian. Eli wants a 5 day break before she is taken to Clan Boundreaux, which she also secretly plans on finding a way to escape and get Nico back. 

Eli has trouble shifting, since she has no real control over her bear, not to mention suffering embarrassment from people who do not like her bear.  When she is injured, Justin will force her to shift, and he tells her she is a Ursine hybrid, but that that her bear is special and  unique.   Everything will begin to change, as Justin’s grizzly (named Herc) will recognize Eli’s bear as his mate.   This is an exciting and dangerous adventure that will put their lives in danger often.   Eli will fight off her growing attraction to Justin, as she knows she must mate someone from her new pack in order to save young Nico. Their slow built romance begins to sizzle, with both knowing their love is real, but can there be any future?

What they do not know is that someone is determined to stop Eli from arriving at Clan Boudreaux.  Who is trying to kill Eli?  

What follows is an exciting action packed story, but I do not want to ruin it for you by giving any spoilers. The last half of the book was great, especially as we raced to the wild climatic ending, It was an edge of your seat suspense that had us holding our breaths to find out if they would survive.  I loved Justin and Eli together, but even close to the end, I was not sure if they could find a way to become mates.  Dianna Love once again gives us another wonderful story, and a series that continues to wow us and look forward to more of the same.  Mating a Grizzly was a fun, exciting, action packed adventure; with a great sexy couple, which you should be reading.

Gray Wolf Mate by Dianna Love – a Review

 

Gray Wolf MateAmazon / B&N / Kobo

Cole had no choice in becoming a Gallize shifter and now faces a deadline from a fatal mating curse he can’t stop. The only woman he’s ever loved is human and wouldn’t survive bonding with him. He never planned on Tess finding out he was a wolf shifter, but she’s in danger from a rogue pack. He’s not leaving until she’s safe … and he has a chance to redeem himself in her eyes before his time is up.

 

 

Review:

Gray Wolf Mate by Dianna Love is the first book in her new League Of Gallize Shifters series.  I was very excited when I found out that Dianna Love was doing a new series revolving around shifters, and I always enjoy whatever Dianna creates for us.   Upon finishing Gray Wolf Mate, I am happy to say that I loved it.

Cole Cavanaugh is a wolf shifter who works for an elite group of shifters called Gallize, who are run by an ancient and powerful shifter, and they are the good guys, who secretly protect humans from the bad shifter groups.  Shifters became known  8 years ago, when a jackal shifter exposed them, causing them to be constantly watched, especially with some other shifter groups at war with each other.  

Cole is on assignment to stop a shipment of a lethal drug, as well as to find his missing friend and member of his team. When he tries to save an elderly homeless woman, Cole realizes he has walked into a trap, and the warehouse explodes.

Tess Janver, our heroine, works for SCIS ( preternatural criminal investigation unit) , who monitor and investigate issues with shifters.   7 years ago, Tess and Cole were college lovers, but one night he disappeared and she never saw him again. Tess does not recognize the badly damaged shifter in the hospital, who unbeknownst to her is in danger from other shifters who want to kill him

This is an exciting, action packed adventure that will have Tess question her knowledge of shifters, and how her Senator father was determined to have them all under confinement; and her shock on discovering that the injured man was Cole. Can Tess forgive or even trust Cole, especially since he is now a shifter?

Tess and Cole can feel the electrical attraction between them is still alive and even stronger. Cole and his wolf can identify that Tess is their mate, but Cole does not want this life for her. A slow built romance begins to sizzle, with both knowing their love is real, but can there be any future?  The jackal shifters, and the Black River pack are determined kill the Gallize shifters, which will also put Tess and Cole’s life in danger.

What follows is an exciting action packed story, but I do not want to give any spoilers, as saying too much more would ruin it for you.  The last half of the book was great, especially as we raced to the wild climatic ending;  it was an edge of your seat suspense that had us holding our breaths to find out if they would survive.  I loved Cole and Tess together, as well as Cole’s team members, who we will learn more about in future books.

As always, Dianna Love once again gives us another wonderful series for us to savor and enjoy. Gray Wolf Mate was a fun, exciting adventure; great sexy couple, wonderful secondary characters, and bad villains.  I cannot wait for the next book. I strongly suggest you start with Gray Wolf Mate and enjoy the ride.
