Confessions of 2 Book Lovers

I am so excited to take part in this blog tour for one of my favorite paranormal authors, Milly Taiden! She sure knows her way around sexy shifters ;) 

Mission: Don’t fall in love

After an explosive night of passion during a scenting ceremony, Karla Alves is sure she was just a one night stand for the man she'd been crushing on for years. She teased him and pleased him, and Nate hasn't been around since. Her fear of becoming clingy kept her from risking her heart and asking for more than a few hours of skin sin.

Mission: Crack her walls

She. Is. His. Nathan Wolfe marked Karla. His mate. Deeply involved in pack politics, Nate has had to stay away. When his sister warns that Karla needs him more than he thinks, he'll discover a bundle of secrets only his wolf can sniff out. But getting the woman he cares about to let down her guard may prove to be his undoing.

Mission: Embrace the bite
With Karla's wayward sister wreaking havoc and friends needing more of his time than ever, Nate will have to rearrange his priorities if he ever hopes to earn Karla's trust. But will time with her be enough? Only true love and a wolf's promise can hold together a relationship created with a bite, a scenting, and a hope for tomorrow.

Once again, Ms. Taiden has written a steamy, can't put it down, hot shifters and great family dynamic book! A Mate's Bite is a great follow up in the Sassy Mates series. At the start, we go back to the beginning of Scent of a Mate to the scenting ceremony to see what happens when Nate happens upon Karla setting up to view the proceedings. And like in the first book, things get steamy and fast! Karla has had a big 'ol crush on Nathan Wolfe for the last seven years. But since she grew up with a mother who was screwed in the head when it comes to men, she has built up an emotional wall hoping to not follow in mommy dearests footsteps. This is not good, seeing as Nate has known for the last seven years that Karla is his mate. He's tried to be patient and wait for her to realize he wants more than friendship with her but she's just taking too dang long! So he sees his opportunity during the ceremony and he takes it. Oh boy does he take it! ;) Unfortunately, pack business calls him away and he gets to see very little of Karla over the next few weeks, which gives her just enough time to over think things and keep those walls in tacked. So, what's a hot, loving shifter like Nate to do?! Well, he does anything and everything he can to knock those walls down, while also trying to protect his human mate from the threat that is still going on from the first book. And let me tell you, Nate doesn't mess around. He goes all out and it was so much fun seeing him show her she belongs to him and that's that! I love Ms. Taiden's writing style and this book was just as great as the others I've read. She definitely knows how to write a steamy yet captivating romance. We get to see Karla come to some conclusions about love and family and take that step to claim what's rightfully hers. Nate! Oh Nate! He is one hot and possessive wolf! I like that while we get a conclusion for Nate and Karla, we still have the ongoing plot from the first book with the neighboring shifter pack that I assume will be an ongoing plot throughout this series. I am really looking forward to reading the next book to see which brother will have to figure out how to claim his mate! :)

Milly Taiden (also writes as April Angel) was born in the prettiest part of the Caribbean (to her) known as the Dominican Republic. Currently, she resides in New York City with her husband, bossy young son and their little dog Speedy.

When she’s not working full-time, texting with her best friend Heidi in England, chastising her son for pulling the dog’s ears, shopping with her sister Jewel or watching scary movies with her husband, she can be found writing on her laptop.

She’s addicted to shoes, chocolate, Dunkin Donuts coffee and JIMMY THOMAS covers!!!

For those of you who have not yet read the first book in this series, Scent of a Mate, here are the links for it as well! You won't want to miss out on this series! It's a hot and steamy ride ;)

Mission: Scent a Mate 

Jordan Alvarez knew that a promise to her best friend involved staking out the local wolf pack's scenting ceremony and recording the graphic details, but she was the writer and the only one with the balls to finish the task. No one would know that four human women had sneaked proof of their rituals, or at least, that was the plan until Aric Wolfe showed up. 

Mission: Stake a Claim 

Aric Wolfe knew his baby sister was up to something, and expected her best friend, Jordan, to be in on the chaos. He finally had an opportunity to lay claim to a mate that had been under his nose for years. Jordan's scent called to both the man and the animal, and he was done fighting the call of the beast. It was time to mark his mate. 

Mission: Survive an Alpha 
When a good intention creates a problem for the Wolfe family, Jordan finds herself being stalked by a woman intent on claiming Aric as her own. Battle lines will be drawn, love will be put to the test, and Aric will have to fight Jordan's strong personality to keep her alive. Two alpha hearts seeking control will either find the balance or risk losing their love forever.
