These are a very different twist on shifters. The storyline is pretty good and the romance in this one is fun because it’s ex lovers but with secrets. I really like that the storyline from the first book still plays just as big of a role in this one.

Clayne has spent the last two years trying to forget the woman who broke his heart but being sent to help with a supernatural threat puts him back in the path of Danica. As an FBI agent Danica will use all the tools she can to stop this killer even if it means teaming up with Clayne. She can't let him know the real reason why she walked away, even if it breaks her heart being so close to him again and not being able to touch him as she desires. As they track down a shifter serial killer close proximity makes the truth hard to deal with but if it means Clayne and Danica finally have their chance at a HEA they will deal with anything thrown their way. Really great suspenseful paranormal read. I accidentally started with book 2 in the series so there is a little bit of unknown with secondary characters and an overarching plot line but overall east to catch up and follow. Great read!

Romantic suspense with a paranormal twist. I believe that you will enjoy this book more if you have read the first in this series Her Perfect Mate (which I absolutely loved). In this installment Ivy & Landon from the first book are still looking for the evil scientists responsible for creating the Hybrids. Wolf shifter Clayne is sent out to help the Feds catch a shifter serial killer which brings him in close contact with the woman that broke his heart and broke him for every other woman. Clayne is all over the place angry, sad, happy, and horny. Danica isn’t far behind but she is a good agent and she needs Clayne to stop the insane shifter before anyone else gets hurt.
This is a good second chance romance with some mystery thrown in. There is a lot going on in the background that I believe is setting up the next book or so in this series. There is a lot to look forward to and I for one can’t wait.

Her Lone Wolf is the second in a fantastic and unique shifter series from Paige Tyler, and it didn’t disappoint. I loved the first in the series because it introduces these new and unique shifters. They’re unique because they don’t shift into full animals but they have the all the advantages of their animal side and a lot of the quirks too.
Danica is now a FBI agent, and working really hard to forget about Clayne, a wolf shifter that she came to love, but of course fate, with a little help from Clayne’s supervisor throws them back together. They’re hunting a serial killer in California, he’s very obviously another shifter who enjoys hunting humans.
So while Danica and Clayne fight their attraction they also battle to find the killer and stop him. I really loved the action in this story, while they are in some ways falling in love again, the action of finding the killer keeps this story moving at a fast pace.
There is a great twist at the end that I didn’t see coming and I really look forward to more in this series, there is a bit of the storyline from the first book, and I imagine that particular storyline will continue throughout the series, but even with that little bit, this could easily be read as a standalone. It does a good job of reintroducing the shifters without boring someone who has already read the first book.

First off, this did not pick up anything like I expected it to based on the ending of book one. But, don't disregard that ending - it's super important, just not quite yet it seems. Instead we get to see jerk-wad Clayne, the wolf shifter, be not such a jerk-wad. Now, don't expect to see his softer side - I really don't think he has one, but you will get to see him put in his place just a little by the woman he never stopped loving.
There are a ton of flashbacks in this story. Danica and Clayne have a history and the important parts are shared this way. There were a little too many for my taste - flashbacks pull me too far out of the story and I think they should be used more sparingly than they were in this book. But that was really the only downside to the story.
The chase is on for a serial killer shifter, and he is one crafty guy. He's highly intelligent and has managed to stay one step (or more) ahead of everyone for a very long time. Watching Clayne and Danica put the pieces together to figure out who he is and where he may turn up next was great. And of course it gave them plenty of time to find out the truth of their past and spend some "quality time" together. This bad guy will keep you on the edge of your seat - so be prepared. Every time I thought he was definitely caught - something happened and the whole game took off in a new direction.
We get to see Lily and Landon from the first book, too. And not just as quick cameo type roles, they are on their own chase as a result of the events in book one (you definitely want to read these in order) and even have a small part in helping out Clayne and Danica with a little issue they run in to.
While book two wasn't quite as good as the first book in my opinion. This is a series that I'm falling in love with!

HER LONE WOLF had a great flow to it. There was plenty of action and danger and a great amount of tension and romance between Clayne and Danica. It was nice to see some more of the world of X-Ops and the corruption that was starting to show in HER PERFECT MATE.
I enjoyed getting to know Clayne a little more and meeting Danica, It was also great to see a little bit of Ivy and Landon while they all worked together towards the end. I am beyond excited for book 3, which will feature Kendra and Declan.

Her Lone Wolf is the second in the series, and the last book of Paige Tyler's that I haven't read and boy was this one fun. I have really been looking forward to this one ever since I read Her Wild Hero, which features this couple quite a bit. This is a second chance romance and I loved seeing these two come back together. Two years previous, Danica and Clayne were partners with the DCO (Department of Covert Ops) but this division of the government has a strict rule of not romantic involvement between partners. Well, Clayne and Danica fell in love and were romantically involved. Danica was blackmailed, and if she didn't break it with Clayne than he would go to prison. So Danica knew that prison is practically a death sentence for a shape-shifter. In Clayne's mind, Danica broke his heart and he has sworn never to open himself up ever again. Until he is ordered by his boss, to hunt down a shifter serial killer and he ends up working with Danica Again. What was most interesting about this story was how well they work together.
Despite their history and the pain they both have gone through, the mission comes first. I love that they can still work on a relationship and not let it affect the mission. We also see more of Landon and Ivy and they are also hiding their relationship from the DCO and they have been married for a while now. The romance is pretty well written, and I loved seeing these two reconnect again and fight for their relationship to the point where they refuse to get separated even if that means leaving the life they both love. The team really pulls together in this book and helps each other out even though they are on different missions. Paige Tyler has won me over again with an action packed and paranormal romance with a dash of mystery to keep me as happy as a lark. If you love paranormal and military mixes, then this series is for you!! I love the way it's balanced out, with the serial killer, and the hunt and the spicy romance that makes me wish the fourth book was ready Now!! hehe Next year, though.

When Danica named a fast food place known for their monster burgers, Clayne almost laughed. Danica knew him pretty damn well--maybe better than he knew himself. She knew when he was frustrated, when he was pissed off, when he was hungry, and apparently what he liked to eat. And as the past few days had reminded him, she knew how to keep him calm and focused on the task ahead of them, and she knew what to say to keep him from losing it. She brought out the best in him,

Review originally posted at RabidReads.com.
This is the second book in Paige Tyler’s X-Ops series. I have to admit, I think this one is even better than the first. I read the first X-Ops book last summer. Then I listened to the SWAT books on audio at the end of last year. Now, I’m going back to the X-Ops books. I’m glad to be back in the world of X-Ops world.
While the SWAT and X-Ops books are similar, they are also different. SWAT, is all werewolves. X-Ops has an array of different shifters. SWAT, mostly just the males are in the police. X-Ops both partners are part of the federal government unit (Department of Covert Affairs, called DCO) that is unknown to most of the public. X-Ops, is always a human partnered with a shifter. And if the shifter is about to be compromised, the human has to eliminate them. There are people who want to see the shifter program fail. They also don’t allow partners to have sexual/romantic relationships with other members of the unit.
The story starts off when FBI Special Agent Danica Beckett realizes that she and her team are dealing with something that is more than human on her most recent serial killer case. She makes a call to her former boss that she thought she would never speak to ever again, but she didn’t know who else to call. She hasn’t talked to anyone at DCO in the two years since she left. But she knew that the local police and the FBI would not be able to catch this killer on their own.
Clayne Buchanan is a wolf shifter, one that is always on the verge of going over the edge. He was brought into the DCO when he was caught surrounded by a bunch of mutilated dead bodies. He is one of the reasons why some of the people think that the shifter program should be shut down, or at least shifters like him. He is like a time bomb, always on edge and quick to agitate. He doesn’t have a partner since his partner and lover walked out on him and crushed him two years earlier, so he’s sent out to help with this shifter. He’s a great tracker and great dealing with shifters who’ve gone off the rails.
This is a story that is full of action, heat, romance, politics, police procedure and much more. If you like crime dramas filled with action and you like shifters, this series will bring those two aspects together into a great story with fun characters. While this story does stand alone, there are aspects of the first story that I think will add to this story. I don’t think you will be lost if you read this one first, but you will get more if you read Her Perfect Mate first. Plus, it is great story too, so you have nothing to lose there.

This book got better with a re-read, especially after having read Ivy and Landon's story first. I am so much more invested in all of the characters and their backstories too! Love Danica and Clayne's history and how they actually get back together with a push from his boss-- because it seems as though everyone at the DCO is miserable without Danica. Still wondering who Clayne's new partner will be or if he will always just be a lone wolf. LOL.
