Romance Paranormal | Romance Suspense

Khaki Blake is a cop who has become something more than just the hardworking cop and to be honest she is ready for a change of scenery, especially with her ex being a jerk. So when the head of the elite Dallas SWAT team wants her for his team it is more than intriguing, it is an answer to her prayers and growing questions about herself. The elite team is actually filled with alpha male wolfshifters and as far as Senior Corporal Xander Riggs is concerned there is no place in the team for a woman. He is about to find out what real WOLF TROUBLE he is in, because this woman is more than meets the eye.

When Khaki walks through the door, Xander is awestruck and has no idea what to do. If she is under his command he can't act on what he is feeling. But if he doesn't how can he possibly keep working with her when his mind is on getting his hands on her. This is WOLF TROUBLE he never expected.

WOLF TROUBLE is an amazing, steamy, suspense-filled read that will not let you put it down. Xander and Khaki are perfectly suited, both wary mostly due to a misunderstanding because of Xander's big mouth. He doesn't want her on his team because he is attracted to her; she hears that and of course thinks he's a chauvinist so this leads to a number of interesting scenarios. Khaki is strong, a good cop with a fierce loyalty for those she thinks of as friends and family.

WOLF TROUBLE is book two of Paige Tyler's SWAT books, and I have to admit I am so hooked on the camaraderie that she has developed in the team. All these men with different personalities have many things in common; they are action hounds who just happen to be family. They are the ones who would do anything for each other including a very tricky bit of covering up, when it becomes obvious that Xander and Khaki are a couple. I have to admit that I did solve the mystery of the sniper shooting before it was solved in the book, but only because I try real hard to solve these things.

WOLF TROUBLE is one action packed book filled with perilous moments as well as sensual ones that will go onto any keeper shelf, while you look for another offering by Ms. Tyler.

SUMMARY

He's in trouble with a capital T

There's never been a female on the Dallas SWAT team and Senior Corporal Xander Riggs prefers it that way. The elite pack of alpha male wolfshifters is no place for a woman. But Khaki Blake is no ordinary woman.

When Khaki walks through the door attractive as hell and smelling like heaven, Xander doesn't know what the heck to do. Worse, she's put under his command and Xander's protective instincts go on high alert. When things start heating up both on and off the clock, it's almost impossible to keep their heads in the game and their hands off each other...

Excerpt

Xander had to pick his jaw up off the floor of the training room when Gage introduced the newest member of the SWAT team. He didn’t know what to expect, but it sure as hell wasn’t Officer Khaki Blake. Tall with an athletic build and just enough curves to fill out the SWAT T- shirt, she had the biggest brown eyes and softest looking lips he’d ever seen. She had her dark hair back in a bun, so he couldn’t tell how long it was, but he’d bet money it fell past her shoulders. She smelled way too good to be believed, too—like a slice of frosted spice cake in a uniform.

Shit. He was practically panting. If he didn’t get a grip soon, he was going to start drooling.

He gave the other guys a covert glance to see how they were dealing with her scent and was stunned to see that none of them reacted at all. Why not? His nose wasn’t that much better than theirs. He knew for a fact that several of the other guys—Cooper Landry and Jayden Brooks specifically—could smell a hell of a lot better than he could.

Maybe everyone was so mesmerized by finally getting to see a female version of their kind that the rest of their senses had stopped working.

Gage had left it up to Xander to fill the guys in on what had gone down at the meeting with Deputy Chief Mason while he’d headed home to get ready for his trip to Washington State. While the guys had been pissed that the top brass was playing politics with the team, they’d been intrigued at the idea of adding a female werewolf to the Pack.

They’d bombarded him with dozens of questions, none of which he could answer. Was she as fast and strong as they were? Did her abilities manifest themselves in completely different ways? Would she be as aggressive as they were and able to handle herself in a fight? Were there more like her out there, or was she the only one?

Not all the questions were so general. Brooks wondered what she would look like, Max Lowry wanted to know if she would smell like them, and Eric Becker… Well, Becker just wanted to know if she liked to wear yoga pants. God, that kid had an obsession with those things.

Xander had told them what he knew—that no one except Gage knew a damn thing about female werewolves. And Xander wasn’t so sure how much their commander knew, either. While Xander was lost in thought, Gage turned the floor over to Khaki, who was currently explaining how much she appreciated the opportunity to be in SWAT.

“I know I won’t be handed anything, but I look forward to proving to every one of you that I belong in the Pack and on the team.” She spoke in a light, lilting voice that surprisingly filled the large classroom. Xander could definitely pick up the Midwest accent, so she probably wasn’t originally from the Pacific Northwest. “I’m not asking for anything from you but a chance to do prove myself.”
