Book Blurb

Josh Mitchell has had enough of werewolves, especially after being kidnapped by them for some stupid revenge plot that should have nothing to do with him. Josh is human, and he's not sure what these people want with him. He hopes for a rescue, but doesn't expect one, especially from Brant Hollis, the handsome beta who he might have had sex with once, in the barn, right before Josh walked away.

But Brant does come for him, he comes for Josh and rescues him, even though he owes Josh nothing. Certainly no emotional feelings worthy of a dangerous rescue. But he's here now, and Josh's feelings for the man swell within him.

Brant loves Josh, has loved him since the moment he first saw him, but his mate is scared and has been running. Brant has every intention of taking back what's his, and he will keep Josh alive and take his mate home. No one takes what's his.

 

Book Review

It’s a good thing this fourth book of the ‘Mating with Wolves’ series starts right where the previous one left off, since I was on pins and needles about what had happened to Josh, what with him having vanished. Of course everyone suspects it was the same bunch of idiotic werewolves who had tried to harm him and Sam before, but someone will have to go and find him. That someone, not surprisingly, turns out to be Brant, but as I found out, there is a lot more to his and Josh’s relationship – or lack thereof – than was obvious from what happened in book three. As a result, this volume is full of surprises (good and bad) and makes for a suspenseful read.

Josh has a whole lot of issues. Some of them are about his past, which wasn’t rosy by any means, and that he is kind of ashamed about. Some of them are in the present and have to do with the fact that he can’t get used to the idea that there are werewolves – never mind that he seems to be lusting after one of them. But when he gets kidnapped and dragged through the woods for days, tied up and not given enough food to keep up his energy, that is when his real problems start. He can’t believe Brant actually comes for him, but he is glad. Josh soon begins to realize there is a whole lot more to this lust he feels and the mating heat gets hold of him despite the fact that he is human.
 
Brant is determined to get back what is his, i.e., Josh. He also wants to do whatever is best for Josh. He years to be with him, but in the end, if Josh were to reject him again like he id after their first encounter, Brant would do his best to stay away. First he has to find Josh, deal with his kidnappers, and bring him home. Most of the story focuses on that return trip and how Brant slowly gets to know Josh better, only to discover he wants him more than ever.

If you like stories about humans needing to get used to the existence of paranormal beings and the fact they are suddenly mated to one, if you like werewolves who are patient about their human mate taking his time to accept what has happened to him, and if you’re looking for a read that is full of suspense, yet a wonderful love story and sweet at the same time, then you will probably like this novella.
