"Enforcers are stretched thin ... but still find love."

Fresh Fiction Review

Thunder Wolf
Heather Long

Reviewed by Annetta Sweetko

Romance Paranormal

The Enforcers are basically chasing their tails. The Volchitsa (Russian) Wolves attacks seem indiscriminate, but even one attack is too many.

John Nelson has been doing double his usual work when it comes to his Lone Wolves. Rules are very strict for wolves that do not stay with their pack and an Enforcer will keep them on the straight and narrow. Now with the random and vicious attacks on Alpha's mates and families, the Enforcers were told to round up their lone wolves and get them to safety, but that just might not be the best idea.

Hadley Sexton is an enforcer who has her lone wolves safely in an old lodge but besides the tension that is normal with wolves that don't like to be near each other, Hadley is worried. The world around them has gone crazy and survival is uppermost in all their minds.

I have to say that THUNDER WOLF is fantastic. I have followed this series from book 1 and have been anxiously waiting for the next one. The way these books are written you become caught up in the lives of these characters and want to know what happens to them next. I have noticed that with the last book (Shadow Wolf) and this one the Enforcer's are fleshed out more. They are less the boogeymen and more real, though perhaps just as frightening because well ... they are boogeymen.

THUNDER WOLF is steamy, sweet, tense and funny as well as filled with action, some hits of sadness and heartbreak as the Volchitsa attack at different fronts. But, of course, the main story is getting to know John and Hadley and watching as they finally figure out that they are perfect mates. Hadley is a mother hen type of Enforcer, stretching the rules a little for her charges while John had seemed more by the rules. His one weakness is ... Hadley. Though they had been only friends he would do anything to protect her and when he finds she is in danger he will disobey the chief and head to her side.

Wait a minute ... Enforcers are pretty much considered Lone Wolfs? I see an interesting twist coming for the future of this fascinating couple and the fate of other Enforcers. I also enjoyed getting to know a little more about Julian and find out he does indeed have a weakness. It has been hinted at in other books, but you will have to read to find out what I am talking about. The Wolves of Willow Bend is an amazing series with Alphas, mates, healers, omegas and those who protect and serve. Love shifters ... look for THUNDER WOLF.

SUMMARY

Most Lone Wolves have a story—a pack they left behind, a love they lost, or worse, one they buried. Some leave their packs to roam because they crave freedom, and independence. Some leave because in their hearts, they can’t bear to stay. Some leave because they see no way to go back…

Enforcer John Nelson has pulled double duty for months, keeping an eye on the Lone Wolves who are his charges as well as those that once answered to Margo Montgomery. More of a loner than most, he doesn’t mind going months at a time without seeing another Enforcer as was his typical pattern or at least it was until the formation of the Three Rivers pack disrupted lives everywhere. Now he must divide his time between watching the upstarts and checking on his charges while working with the other Enforcers to anticipate the next move by the Russian Volchitsa. No En Enforcer expected to find themselves among the hunted, but when they target the one wolf he can tolerate, John defies orders to go after her.

Hadley Sexton is a bit of a wild card even for an Enforcer, and she loves being unpredictable. More of a mother hen than she likes to admit, she keeps an eye on her Lone Wolves, and treats them more like family than charges…but when three Enforcers are brutally murdered over the course of three weeks, Hadley discovers someone has been shadowing her trail and they aren’t alone. It is a dangerous game with a brutal enemy, one willing to kill the wolves she’s sworn to protect to draw her out.

For Hadley, John will break every rule, but will he be in time?
