I loved this series, and so far can’t complain about a single character. I love watching each of the main characters getting their own happy ending, and by the end of each book, I’m just as excited to see the next characters get their endings. I loved getting to learn more about a different shifter, as a main character, and loved Riley’s raven traits. All around a quick romantic and witty read!

I had a really tough day so this book is just what I needed to cheer me up. I love both Tao and Riley, and watching them both with Dexter and Savannah was too cute. I just feel like some things were still unresolved with the flock, but maybe that’s the point, to show how the flock is no longer Riley’s home.

I loved this, the story line was amazing, and i loved both Tao and Riley!

They say the line is thin between love and hate... In Tao's circumstance this couldn't ring more true.... in alot of the books there always seem to be a stronger part of the couple to pull the other through, come to understand the bond and let them in... Riley is the more predominant to this circumstance but i loved how vulnerable Tao was to his feelings also.

I Couldn't get my head around a wolf wanting a bird...... the human couple yes, but bird and wolf never seen that on national geographic...... how would that work? this would have made more sense to me if they imprinted rather than true mates... But ok i still loved it.

4.25-4.5 stars. This was a really good book! This ranks right up there with my favorites from this series, which is my favorite shifter series. This is Tao and Riley's book. Tao is an enforcer with the Phoenix Pack. Riley is a raven shifter who came to stay with the pack for sanctuary 6 months ago with young lone shifter kids from the homeless shelter that Mackenna worked at. Tao was suspicious of Riley when she first arrived, but gradually grew to trust her. Riley was attracted to Tao from the beginning, but didn't think he liked her. But one night after they both had too much to drink, they gave into their attraction and got together. Tao now wants a relationship with Riley, and though she is not sure he means it, she is convinced to give him a shot. They have to deal with trouble at Riley's previous pack but it only makes them stronger. They decide to have a forever relationship, and eventually find out they're true mates.

I really loved both Tao and Riley. They had great banter and sexy times. Tao was so sweet and protective of Riley. Riley was sarcastic and funny. They were so hot together too! There was very low relationship angst. I just loved them together. It was also fun seeing them interact with the kids, Savannah and Dexter, who became like their adopted children. I also enjoyed catching back up with the previous couples from the series.

There is a moment that gave me pause, when we found out the Tao had wanted to imprint on Taryn, the alpha female in the pack, before she was mated. I have read Taryn's book, but I had forgotten Tao's part. I wasn't bothered too much though. It was obvious that he really loved Riley, never loved Taryn and he never touched her. Riley was his perfect match, not Taryn. So I was okay with that.

Overall, this was a very funny, sexy, sweet, and suspenseful book! I loved seeing Tao and Riley's relationship develop. I can't wait for more from this series and Ms. Wright!

Ahahah I just loved how she made him insane!
But, really I have a soft spot for this series.
I missed them.
And the audio? So good

The next instalment of the Phoenix pack saga gives us the long awaited tale of Tao (and Riley) but mainly Tao who we have patiently waited for since the first book. So neither Riley or Tao are the nicest or the easiest to get on with... but I think that is why I enjoyed this book so much! Riley is not used to trusting so she uses sarcasm (and highly questionable facts) to keep people at a distance.

There are twists and turns aplenty with new enemies popping up, history rearing its ugly head and then, of course, Greta.

This is an entertaining entry in the series, with Tao and Riley finding their way together (well and with Savannah and Dexter,the rest of the pack, and some of the flock).
