"To think Riley had enough problems is an understatement. But add kidnapped in the middle of heading home from a specialist's office; that's just bad luck. When Riley wakes up in the middle of an alley way, she finds that she is with a dead man, whom she killed. And the beasts that are after her are not fun at all. Riley tries to hide in a barn with a bunch of horseshifters and ends up escaping with some of them, one of them being Kade Williams. Looks like Riley has found another partner (Wink Wink if you know what I mean). They get rescued but whoever is after Kade and Riley are not going to give up. Riley finds out some really important information about herself and starts playing the field of lovers. But what will she do with all the people after her? What will she decides with the information given to her by the doctor? And will Riley let Quinn back in after all the brush offs?"

— Laurie, 2/7/2014" May 2012 Re-read. Wow this series is getting hotter than I remember. I love how Riley is taking no crap from Quinn. Even though I do like him a lot. I love Kellan he is totally Alpha and would be great in a Master of the shadowlands books....LOL "
— Toni, 2/4/2014" This Series just keeps getting better and better wuth every book. Kade, heck yes! A strong plot with an easy to follow storyline. Addicted from the very start. "
— Jessica, 2/3/2014" Good vamp/werewolf romance.... main character is vamp and werewolf! Not the best written book, but pretty good. Nothing on Twilight... "
— Anthony, 1/30/2014" This one had one of those endings that required me to buy the next book. While a lot of stuff happened in this book, it kind of abruptly ended, leaving a lot undone. Still lots of sex and men and were-things and vampires, and I'm slowly being sucked into yet another series. At least there's only a few of these. :-) "
— Carrie, 1/21/2014" Fast paced, awesome ending and it left me wanting much, much more! "
— Adia2728, 1/8/2014" 2nd in the series still not for the faint of heart highly sexual and graphically gruesome but, I personally can't wait to find the next in this series. Vamps and Wolves, gotta love em. "
— Cindy, 1/4/2014" 2nd review - It was great a must read a page turner can't wait to move on to the next book. I do fairly remember this series but it fun reading and going over the details of Riley's execiting life with the many mates, loves and danger the comes along with it. "
