Description:
An unexpected partnership leads two wolves to reconsider everything they know…
Alpha werewolf Harley Grant isn’t exactly comfortable with her inner wolf. Even though she’s on a STAT Team where she can use her abilities because her teammates know about her, she refuses to do so, putting herself and sometimes them at risk.
Alpha werewolf Sawyer Bishop would give anything for his M16 Team to know about his inner wolf, but his teammates are mistrustful of anyone or anything with inhuman abilities. When he meets Harley on an overlapping case and realizes she’s a fellow wolf, he’s more than a little intrigued.
Now that STAT and MI6 have to team up to stop a crew of supernatural bad guys intent on causing a nuclear meltdown, Harley can no longer deny her wolf and Sawyer can no longer hide his. As they grow closer to resolving the case and grow closer to each other, they discover things aren’t what they seem and revenge could cost them their lives.
Review:
Undercover Wolf by Paige Tyler is the 2nd book in her STAT (Special Threat Assessment Team) series. The STAT series is sort of a spin off from Tyler’s SWAT series. The STAT team is assigned unsolvable cases, which will include supernatural creatures.
Undercover Wolf starts with a bang, as the STAT team is in a Paris nightclub investigating a trafficking ring, when they are surprised that another group, M16 is also on this same mission. We meet Harley, a member of STAT, who is a werewolf, as is some of other members of their team; she ends up helping Sawyer, one of the M16 leaders, who is also a werewolf. Both teams will agree to work together to stop the ring, made up of supernatural criminals. The STAT members notice that Sawyer is a werewolf, but the M16 team has no idea, and Sawyer is determined to keep it quiet, since he is not sure how his team would react.
Once the teams work together to investigate the ring, it becomes obvious that there is more to the trafficking ring and the kidnappings of supernatural beings. When some of their teammates on other assignments are murdered, it becomes apparent that someone in the past is out for revenge, and using supernatural people to kill, causing chaos and destruction. Sawyer recognizes the leader as someone they thought was dead, but now the enemy has become ultra-powerful, and increasing difficult to stop.
What follows is an action packed, non-stop, exciting thriller that held me on the edge of my seat throughout, unable to put the book down. There were so many dire situations that had the team in danger, with their lives hanging by a thread. Both Harley and Sawyer had issues with their family not knowing or accepting what they were. Harley never used her ability to bring out her wolf; will she finally use it to save Sawyer? I loved that over a short period of time, Harley and Sawyer began to have strong feelings and the chemistry between them sizzled; soon they will realize that maybe their relationship is the ‘One’, destined to each other (a werewolf legend). They were so great together, and also a great couple. I also thought the STAT team members were awesome; Caleb, Jake, Jen, Misty, Forest.
Undercover Wolf was an exciting, action packed non-stop adventure from start to finish, with great secondary characters, and a great couple. The villains were evil, violent and fully dangerous, with amazing supernatural abilities that were difficult for the team to fight against. So many times, I held my breath to see who would survive. Once again Paige Tyler gives us another fantastic story, which I cannot wait to see what she has in store of us next. I wholly suggest you read this series.
