Pack Choice by Hannah Haze

3 Stars

Everyone around me seems to be landing their dream pack.

Not me.

I'm destined for a life of stress baking with only cats and books for company.

Why?

No pack wants to date the little sister of the notorious Stormgate brothers.

Especially when that sister is an omega with a smart mouth and a scent that's - now how did the last alpha describe it? - spicy.

Yep, no pack wants a mouthy, spicy, little Stormgate.

In fact, the only alphas I seem capable of attracting are self-proclaimed lone wolves.

My grumpy boss … the city’s notorious motorcar-champion … and the man assigned to keep me safe.

All three alphas may be hot, available and chasing me. But all three are not prepared to share.

They don't want a pack.

Which is fine.

Just dandy.

Ay okay.

Because I most definitely do not want them.

I struggled with Molly as a characters. She was just mean and not a cute mean but mean mean. I liked the guys and could understand them not wanting to be a pack and share. After book 1 and 2 this was just a let down but still love the series.

Wolf’s Call by Auryn Hadley

3 Stars

You don't have to be a wolf to show your claws, but it helps.

My five boyfriends - yes, five - are being much too patient with me. That's pissing a few people off. It seems that when living with a pack of wolves, there are certain expectations for the alpha's mate - and I suck at this. A few months ago, I had no idea shifters even existed!

I just wanted a safe home, and this is it, although it's not at all what I imagined. When an ex-girlfriend decides to make my life a living hell, pack rules say that if I want to keep my place, I need to win my own fights. That's not easy when she's young, fit, beautiful, and a wolf. I'm not.

But with the help of a few friends, a little medical advice, and a whole lot of pent up sexual frustration, one thing is going very, very well. Five boyfriends really are better than one. I just have to balance them with my child and these new pack responsibilities.

Because, this was my second chance. I'd intended to learn how to be strong, but I was thinking more about having my own opinions and less about dominance challenges! I should be focusing on the bully picking on my daughter at school. The pack's children are being singled out by some kid, and that is a problem - but this woman will not leave me alone!

So if I want to be strong, I need to stop letting others push me around.

It's time for the claws to come out.

Elena and her 5 men are trying to figure life out all while dealing with the pack wanting things to be normal. The pacing in this one is better than the first book. It moves at a much faster pace. Questions are answered but more pop up but it also ends in a cliffhanger ending. Interested in seeing how it ends.

Knot Forever by Evelyn Flood

4 Stars

Nova is desperate for a pack of her own.

Not for any old pack though – Nova wants a pack of alphas that will protect, cherish, and care for her the way she needs. All she wants is to be loved.

But thanks to her nightmare ex-boyfriend, every pack in town thinks she’s bad news.

When a charity auction lands her in the lap of the Kings, Nova isn’t convinced, but she’ll give it her best shot. This is her last chance, or she’ll be mated to her ex-boyfriend’s pack whether she likes it or not.

Asher, Marcus, and Seth are well-known for their ruthless ways, and they’re determined to keep Nova at bay for the 30 days they have to spend together. No omega could possibly meet their needs, so what's the point in trying?

But even three strong-willed alphas can’t stand up to an omega who knows what she wants.

It's time for these Kings to meet their queen.

Read the Trigger Warnings on this one!

Nova is just an omega looking for her forever pack, but people are working against her who should be protecting her. I love the struggle and the guys who help her even though it’s for selfish reasons. It was well paced and had good character development. Give it a shot.

Wolf’s Bane by Auryn Hadley

3 Stars

The things that go bump in the night are supposed to be headboards, not monsters.

Leaving my husband was hard. Trying to face the world alone with my teenage daughter is the sort of thing nightmares are made of, but I caught a break. My best friend just hired me for a great job. It's not anything special, simply managing the leasing office of this very fancy and highly exclusive neighborhood, yet the perks mean I get my second chance.

Speaking of perks, my rent-free house is right beside not just one handsome man, but five! Each one is hotter than the last, and all of them seem interested in me. Maybe I can't remember the last date I was on, but if I want to master being a strong woman, then this is a good place to start. It's just dating, right?

Normal life stuff.

Not so much.

Everyone around us has these strange golden eyes. Then there are the questions no one will answer. And who cares if there's a lot of wildlife running around at night? I do, especially when a wolf keeps sneaking into my backyard. I have a kid to worry about. Things have got to change before someone gets bitten!

Normal is going out the window, and fast. My neighbors say I don't belong here, and they don't mean because I'm Hispanic. Never mind that I just heard a man growl. Now they're talking about fated somethings, and I'm pretty sure they mean me.

I feel like I'm going crazy! Because when I said I wanted to learn how to be strong, this wasn't what I meant at all. Still, when it comes to taking care of my little girl, I will definitely learn how to be the biggest bitch on the block

I just hope that doesn't become literal.

I adored this weird book. This one treats lycanthropy as a STD. If you share fluids with someone who is a lycanthropy you will become a shifter. Which is different and interesting take on shifters. The book was a little slow moving but it was still a good read. Elena is trying her best to support herself and her 14-year-old daughter. She ends up with so much attention she doesn’t know what to do with herself. It does end on a cliff, but all books are out.

Knot Their Reality by Miranda May

3 Stars

Two years ago, I thought I’d found the one thing I’d been missing—a pack. Except they didn’t want me.

Now, it’s time to leave them in the past where they belong and find my pack with the help of Heated.

As the second season’s omega, I have twenty alpha and beta suitors vying for a spot in my pack. We have eight weeks to get to know one another, to unpack each other’s baggage, and to see if we can be one another’s forever.

Except, there are surprises being thrown at me left and right—leaving me completely off balance. I’m sure it’ll make great television, but can I make it through this? I want to—no, I need—to make this work. One thing they’ll learn about me is that I don’t give up.

I will find my pack, but I’m quickly realizing that leaving the past behind isn’t as simple as I once thought it would be.

I liked most of this story but there were too many men and not enough with any of them. There were also too many to keep track of who was who and it was a struggle to connect with any of them. I did enjoy the overall story and who she ended up with. It just came across as too many characters.
