What a fun and sexy read! Ali is back home on her family’s from college and she opens her front door to find two sexy lawmen. Unbeknownst to her she opened the door to her future.

Holt is the local Sheriff and Theo is a DEA agent, they are working together on Theo’s meth case and following clues that being them to Ali’s family ranch. They immediately recognize her as their fated mate. The two sexy wolf shifters have known since they were teens they were scent mates and would someday find the fated mate they would both claim and share.

Ali is a human and the daughter of a rancher who is an enemy of their pack. Her father was involved in the illegal killing of wolves (non shifters) and this has drawn the ire of the local wolf shifter pack. Theo and Holt are drawn to Ali and intend to gain her interest in them regardless of who she’s related to or any other obstacles.

The relationship quickly gets very steamy and then some outside drama grabs your attention and keeps you fully engaged with where the storyline is leading. This is a great addition to the series and includes the appearance of several pack members from previous books.

I received an ARC from the authors and Grey PR, and I am voluntarily leaving a review.

Another one to put in the "read in one sitting" list. Once Ali opened that front door, I knew we were going to be in for a rollercoaster ride.

I thought this book was interesting because Theo and Holt knew she was their fated mate, but it was almost as if Ali knew it instinctively. The threesomes attraction was strongly apparent from there fist meeting. The big question that Holt and Theo had was the basis for some of the more intriguing parts of the book.

I liked that Ali was string willed, independent, and intelligent. Her reaction to Theo and Holt's secret was underwhelming to say the least. I do like it when a description of their wolves has been added to the book.

It waa obvious that Ali's father underestimated her on many levels. The solution to the problem that Ali came up with was both dangerous and daring. One thing I would have liked to have seen was the reaction from her father and the neighbor. That would have been entertaining.

This book includes action, danger, and suspense. It also describes a sense of support, loyalty, family, and love. Throw in some steamy scenes an you've got the whole package.

I voluntarily read and reviewed the Advanced Reader Copy of this book.

I haven’t read much paranormal romance and I don’t think I’ve ever read a shifter trope before because I love animals but not like THAT, ya know? Anyway, this one looked good and I wanted to try something new so this one was my first and enjoyed it very much. Holt and Theo are hot lawmen searching for a meth lab but they’re also wolves. They approach their enemy about searching his land and meet his daughter for the first time, immediately recognizing her as their fated mate.

Ali Jenkins is definitely interested in the hot cops at her door but even more after running into them at a bar and being propositioned for a threesome. She knows it’s crazy but she can’t fight her attraction to these two. This story is steamy and has just the right amount of suspense to balance the heat. Their story got me hooked so I’ll be checking out more from the Two Marks series soon.

This is the latest story in the Two Marks series and like the others it can be read and enjoyed as a standalone, although being familiar with the other stories will add to your enjoyment. There was great interaction between the characters and the authors did a good job of keeping the story moving. This is an easy to read story that provides a good mix of drama and heat.

This writing duo is always one of my favorites- the give me fast paced stories with the perfect combination of smutty deliciousness, character charisma, and emotional chemistry. And this Two Marks series has been my favorite from this dynamic duo- a series full of twists, a creative and fun take on the mating trope, and of course the burn your panties off sizzle that they always deliver.

What I’ve appreciated about this series is that while the architecture feels similar from book to book, each triad/throuple always feels inherently different, interesting in their own right. Here we have Holt and Decker, sheriff and special agent respectively, finding their mate behind the door when they’re making a house visit to a man they suspect of running a meth ring in their community and an enemy to their pack, a known wolf murderer. Turns out she’s his daughter- and she’s quite a match for these two alphas.

Ali as our heroine has a lot of sass and spark- I’ve really loved seeing the different personality types these two authors have brought to the women in this series. Of course, with the mating trope, we always have an instalove/instalust beginning, but my favorite part of these books is watching the men pursue and convince their (usually) human mates to dive into their throuple arrangement and watching them figure out how to let their wolves out of the proverbial cages. That really builds the chemistry and connection, and its load of fun- banter, sexy flirting, the inexplicable pull.

Outside of the romance, each book has an element of suspense and danger- and I love nothing more than solving a mystery and seeing two sexy alpha shifters tear the world apart to protect their mate. It makes for a fast paced and enticing read- and I just can’t get enough of this series!

While out investigating DEA agent Theo and Sheriff Holt from their mate. The only problem is she's a rancher but most important the daughter of a wolf hunter.

So they must approach her with a little caution if they intend to make her theirs. First in order to keep her safe and to make sure she had no part in what is going on on her ranch.

Ali finds herself interested in something Holt/Theo suggest the night they run into each other at the local bar. But she's not quite ready to go through with anything they've suggested no matter how hot she finds them.

Thank you so much to the authors and ValentinePR for this e-ARC to review.

Enticed is an enjoyable read in Rose and Vale’s Two Marks series. My favorite thing, by far, was the pragmatic nature of Ali, the heroine. She is amazingly capable, and you can easily see that she’ll be able to run her family’s large ranch with ease. There’s a huge insta-lust aspect with this series, as the male wolf pairs know instantly who their mate is and want to bond right at that second of discovery. But the challenge for Holt and Theo is that Ali is human, not shifter.

Then again, Ali feels that pull just as strongly as Holt and Theo, and the sensual scenes in Enticed deliver nicely. I also liked how Theo’s profession as a DEA agent and Holt’s as a sheriff dovetail to the threat in this story, which is their and Ali’s discovery of a meth manufacturing operation happening on Ali’s family farm. So you’ve got a throuple drawn together by their fated-mate status dealing with the difficulty of Ali having to accept what her father has gotten into and its risks to both him, her, and their family ranch.

What fell flat for me in this story was the meth-making situation. The villain all but twirls his mustache on the pages of this book, and Ali’s father is also way too revealing of the scenario he’s created. Granted, this is a shorter book, so there can’t be a huge buildup of the danger. But things moved incredibly quickly, and considering how the villain set things up, resolved a bit too easily as well.

I liked seeing characters from earlier books playing some key roles in Enticed, connecting this book to earlier ones. This is a fun series to read if you’re a fan of shifters, insta-love, sexy times, and wide open spaces.
