In the Mood Fur Love by Eve Langlais
4.0
FTC DISCLAIMER: I RECEIVED AN E-ARC FROM THE PUBLISHER THROUGH NET GALLEY. I VOLUNTARILY OFFER MY HONEST REVIEW OF THE BOOK, THOUGH IT IS NOT EXPECTED OF ME! RECEIPT OF THIS BOOK IN THIS MANNER DOES NOT AFFECT MY OPINION OF THE BOOK OR THE CONTENT OF MY REVIEW!
Oddly enough, this wasn't like the other books in the series for me, where it took me forever to read them, and ultimately weren't enjoyable to me because it sent me out of my normal comfort zone. I actually enjoyed the bulk of these stories!
Bearing His Touch by Eve Langlais-4 stars
Finally! A decent story in this universe! Some of it was very far-fetched, but I loved Becka as a heroine, and Stavros was amazing as her mate! Becka’s poppa was the best part for me! The story kept me engaged and engrossed for the entire time, and I wasn’t bored like I had been with the previous anthology stories! Way to step up your game, Ms. Langlais, and end the “series” on a really high note!
Fake Mated to the Wolf by Milly Taiden-5 stars
As usual with these anthologies, Milly Taiden’s story steals the show! I loved seeing the minds behind Mate for Hire get matched up! Hawke was a great hero, and I loved how Shawna stood up for herself, and cared about her family and friends. Things jumped around a bit in this story, giving it a glossed over feel at times, but it wasn’t enough to detract from my enjoyment of the story. I’d love to read more in this universe
The Witch, The Werewolf and The Waitress by Kate Baxter-2 stars
Every time I read one of the Lowman stories, I usually round up to 2 stars on them, because I find them boring and uninteresting. This one was more of a 2.5 star read, but wasn’t worthy of a 3 star rating. The premise was unique and somewhat interesting, which made up for a lackluster romance and “courtship”. I felt for Ellie, and was able to empathize with her plight, but couldn’t connect to Colin much at all. I think I’ll avoid this author in the future.
