five minutes later
, the auction was finally over. She could finally go home. Her feet were swollen and something was doing a tap dance on the inside of her skull. The Tylenol® she had taken fifteen minutes ago hadn’t kicked in yet.

She considered her options as she rubbed the edge of her sole.
Should I chance taking these shoes off? Crap, I might not get them back on. Then what? Go bare foot in this gown?

That wouldn’t be embarrassing, not at all.

El stood and limped to the door leading to the ballroom. She groaned as she looked at the crowd she would have to walk through to get to her truck.

This was going to be two hundred thousand times worse than a walk of shame.

She giggled at her bad joke. Yeah, she was losing it.

“What’s so funny?”

The deep timber of his drawl had no business sending her pulse racing. She waited for a panic attack to kick in, but her body remained calm.

“Nothing,” she squared off with Stefan. “Were you dropped on your head as a child?”

The smell of fresh leather surrounded her. She took a deep breath wondering once again where it was coming from.

He frowned. “No.”

She cocked her head and arched a brow at him.

“Is there a history of insanity in your family?”

“No.” He scowled. “What are you getting at?”

“No one in his right mind would bid two hundred thousand dollars. That leaves one conclusion, you’re insane.”

“Oh, I’m insane all right. Insane for you.”

“Right. Go fishing with those lines somewhere else, this woman isn’t biting.”

“Oh, cher,” he laid his hand across his heart, “you wound me.”

“Shut up, Le Beau.” She tried to push past him but he didn’t budge. “Please move out of the way.”

From the ballroom, the band began to play a romantic waltz. Her father’s favorite song
-
the one he always insisted she dance with him to. How odd.

He presented his hand to her. “I do believe they’re playing our song.”

She looked at his hand suspiciously. “What are you doing now?”

“I’m asking the single woman I won at the auction to dance. That is my right as the winner.” He grinned.

She stepped back and crossed her arms. “You’re kidding, right?”

“I’ve never been more serious, I assure you. Now, may I have this dance?” His hand remained extended as he waited for her response.

She eyed the hand like it might bite. “Fine. I suppose I have to.”

Stefan led her to the dance floor and took her into his arms. She was perfect. His wolf howled in triumph. Now if he could only get her to actually like him.

CADE

 

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this wonderfully written and very different kind of love story. Yes, I said love story, for that is what it is. It just happens to be about a wolf shifter who discovers his destined mate is human. They unknowingly met five years earlier in their dreams and even then their attraction to each other was something else. They meet and are stunned when they recognize their dream lovers. The story is of their journey through their first meeting, getting to know each other, their courtship, mating and marriage. This is not without problems as she has an ex that wants back in the picture.

I've already written too much as I don't like to give spoilers. Just know that this is not your regular “werewolf” story but a story of love between two different people who are destined in the end to become one. What makes it even better is that it's a series about a family with seven brothers so you can continue to read about these most imaginatively, sensually well written shifters and their destined mates, but at the same time can be read as standalone books. If you like reading about love, with some great sex and paranormal thrown in, I highly recommend picking up this book.

This was my first shifter read and I have to say I was extremely surprised at how much I loved this book! I guess this proves you need to move out of your comfort zone once in awhile and you discover more genres you love! If I could give this book 10 star I absolutely would! It was amazingly written and the story line had you the whole time. I couldn't put it down! I am in love with the brothers and cannot wait to read more! Congratulations on a job well done V....

SIMON

Simon's story takes us back to the bayou and the hot brothers looking for their mates. Simon, however, is a special case. He has some issues, issues that stem from not having that personal connection when serving our country proud!!!!! Then, of course, there's an underlying issue...someone doesn't want him to mate?!?!

Simon is strong and HOT as all get out of hell, he is just broken, broken beyond anything his family or friends can fix. He knows he needs help and he feels that there's hope when his sister-in-law simply touches him. Still that's just NOT enough...not until she touches him...not until...Rose.

Rose...a beauty, in Simon's eyes. Not your average skinny-size heroine. No way...this gal has got your curves and lack of self-confidence that goes with it.  A foster child since she was a baby, the only real family is the one that she claims as her own. That would include Cade's mate, Anna, Anna’s boys, and her two foster brothers. However, like everyone else...she has a past. One that she's not even fully aware of yet (it's amazing what brothers will do for their sister). I'm personally on the fence with Rose for a long while through this story. I toss back and forth wondering if she's worthy of Simon. Thankfully, I'm no Goddess...right...LOL

As their feelings progress, outside a ploy is being sought to prevent them from becoming a mated couple...I know ...WTF!!!!

It's totally freaking CRAZY!!! Awesome fight scenes though...I totally LOVE Simon's reaction when he hears about the first attack...Priceless...LMAO!!!

The final fight scene...OMG...now, that one...it was one that was totally a read twice and absorb!!!! Maybe read again!!! OMG!!!!

Rock Him!!! Rock Him!!!

Holy Boogers!!! I just realized I didn't say one word about the love scenes between Simon and Rose...What was I thinking....they were H-O-T!!!! Notice I put the word *love* and not *sex* because between them that’s the only way to describe it...just FYI.

I totally love what Simon and Rose plan to do for the future...that’s AWESOME!!!!

This story really takes you for one heck of a ride...you’re intrigued...upset...curious…sad...overjoyed...

Then you're like ...OK...WHO THE HELL really wants the throne!!!

This is one of the first books I read with a military influence (real). As a Marine who worked with organizations for service dogs, I found the realism to be refreshing. Great read, I almost had tears in my eyes at one part. Great alpha major and minor characters, I did have a tinge bit of empathy for the villain (Travis). It must be the therapist in me. The heroine was tough, vulnerable and resilient. Love it! Simon's character showed so much depth and vulnerability; I almost cried again. You will find humor, romance, suspense, and of course, who can truly resist a Marine. I am anxiously awaiting the next book in this series. Good read! Worth the money!
