Can't get any better!

Karel and Liv are so adorable. I love how she now has a mother figure in her life. I just love how she met Bella as well. She now has everything she's ever wanted. Ill say it again but I love Milly's books. I don't know how I missed this one. If I could get a shifter man in my life ;)

This is 9th book in Tilly Taiden paranormal dating agency series.
Karel is Alyx's head of security and a panther.
Karel mother becomes suddenly ill and her last dying wish is to see him mated and making cubs.
Karel convinces Gerri to help him find a mate. Gerri hasn't been on earth a while with helping Alyx, Brecc Eros find mates. Karel decides to come to earth to see Gerri but as he's walking out of the lift he bumps into his mate Liz.
This story is really good. Couldn't put it down. Liz and Karel relationship is very very quick and develops in no time at all but still feels natural. Karel is very romantic and expresses himself in really sweet ways.great HEA.

Note: All the books in this series are quick reads with very little plot and an insta-match. They are great if your looking for a little steam and some sexy shifters for an afternoon break.

This PDA series has become one of my favorites that I look forward too. I need something every now and then that does not have a deep plot, that I can just sit back enjoy the short and sweet times.

Karel and Alivia where great together. I really enjoyed that Karel did not pressure Alivia, giving her the time she needed to let her head catch up with her heart. I also love that we got to return to alien plant that the shifters live on. This one was a little different then the previous PDA books in that Karel did not do anything stupid to get his women upset with him. We also got a little action, trickery, and mystery with our plot in that a bad guy is trying to hurt a previous couple. Gerri is still as fun as every with her matchmaking skills and I can’t forget the hot and steamy sex… oh boy!

The only thing that I am getting a little tired of is the BBW angle. Yes, I know this is a BBW series. It just seems that the author is putting to much emphasis on how the heroine's look and how they are mistreated over the years because of it. I don’t mind reading stories with heroine's like this, but the emphasis is getting to over powering and I’m starting to not like how much her body image is talked about. I do love the possessiveness of the hero’s and how they love their full-figured woman.

In the Roar was a fun read from begging to end. I feel in love from the first to the last page and can’t wait for the next installment to hit the bookstores.

I am loving this series I really hope it goes on and on.
When we first met Karel I wanted to read his story right away but we had to wait and it was worth it.
Alivia is the prefect mate for Karel hands down. I love how they met. I love how he couldn't sleep and seek'd her out. And I have to say loving that she didn't resist. She just knew that going with him would change her life for the better and of course it did.

I just really loved this book as you can tell I am gushing. His mother was just so very lovely as well. Just the kind of mother Alivia needs in her life.
Also pink oceans. Who wouldn't love that! Just say that's awesome.
Another hit for Mrs. Wilder!

So I got a deal a la BookBub for one of the books in this series. At the time I was really unable to focus on anything, so I gave this book (and then the series) a shot. Sped through the whole series.

I don't feel comfortable enough to give a rating to the series, because I just can't evaluate it the way I can evaluate another book. But I will say that in my head, the rating went up a little bit because the author really seems to know what she's writing. She's not trying to write great fiction; they're short books that are fun in some ways and get the job done, and I find complete merit in that.

So if this is your jam or if you are for whatever reason temporarily inclined, you could do a lot worse.

A need for family, babies, and a mother's love. Karel is the chief security officer for Alyx; however when his mother falls ill he must find his mate before she dies. Alivia wants babies and the love of a family. Gerri overhears Alivia talking about how horrible men are and that she should just get a frozen pop. When Karel and Alivia collide a sweet sexy journey begins.

This specific video review will be included in the August 2018 wrap-up.

Alivia Vela is a confident curvy woman. She loves who she is curves and all. Her family not so much. Alivia has had bad luck when it came to dating men. The men she dated expected her to be thankful that they gave her the time of day. Alivia is lucky that Karel was there to save her on her last date.

Karel was not to prideful to ask for Gerri Wilder’s help to set him up with his mate. Karel asking her for her services seemed to be the last thing she expected. Gerri jumped at the chance when she found his reasoning for rushing in finding a mate.

Alivia and Karel find instant attraction and Karel decides to bring her to meet his sick mother. His mother was so gracious to Alivia when they meet.

Karel and Alyx must do what that can to save their mates. There is also something strange going on with Karel’s mother’s sickness. Karel will realize that it had to be fate that brought his mate to him during this time of need. Will they figure out what is wrong with karel's mom before it is to late?

This was a fairly well written story. I enjoyed it and i liked the added story about Karel mother it gave the story more depth.

In the Roar (Paranormal Dating Agency #9) by Milly Taiden – This series is in kindle unlimited. The time crunch on this one makes the falling for each other feel a little more whirlwind. But Gerri never disappoints! Happy Reading!
