WILD WOLF CLAIMING is Book 8 in Rhyannon Byrd's
Bloodrunners werewolf series. Even though characters
from previous books make appearances in this story, I
believe readers new to this series can still enjoy
WILD WOLF CLAIMING. Since there are humans in WILD WOLF
CLAIMING, the Bloodrunner world is explained for new
characters and new readers. Rhyannon Byrd does a great
job of balancing romance with fast-pace action.
The story opens with good buddies, and fellow
Bloodrunners, Elliot Connors and Max Doucet preparing for
their latest mission—to protect two women from an
unknown psychopath. Being a kind of werewolf cop and
overall good guy with a sweet side, Elliot is a sexy and
spectacular hero. I love how open Elliot is to finding
love and a life-mate, in spite of the lack of affection
shown by his biological parents. The caring, level of
respect, and the way he always tries to build up Skye's
fragile ego bolsters Elliot's credentials as a hero. I
also like how he lets Skye know right away how much he is
interested in her, even though his intense regard is
difficult for her to process.
Elliot and Skye are both amazingly sympathetic and
complex characters. Having WILD WOLF CLAIMING told from
both perspectives gives the reader a more complete
picture of the two main characters. They both have
emotional baggage from family relationships that threaten
their current romance. Both characters also wrestle with
their demons and grow emotionally over the course of the
book. The threat of danger, the sporadic attacks by
miscellaneous enemies, and being on the run from those
threats, heighten the sexual tension between Elliot and
Skye and draws them together. The erotic and occasionally
light-hearted interludes between Elliot and Skye make
WILD WOLF CLAIMING so enjoyable.
WILD WOLF CLAIMING is a delightfully frenetic tale of
werewolf justice and true love. The Bloodrunner
series is a must-
read for true fans of werewolf romance. WILD WOLF CLAIMING
has
made me eager to go back and hunt down the previous
installments in the series I haven't read, and I look
forward to reading Max's story next.
His wolf had never reacted this strongly to a woman… And.
She. Was. His.
Werewolf Elliot Connors had come to the sleepy town of
Charity to stop a madman from claiming his next victims
for his macabre collection of sex slaves. After saving
Skye Hewitt from being kidnapped, Elliot desires the
diner waitress more than his next breath. All his senses
scream that Skye is his life-mate. But his past has
taught him well that nothing worth having ever comes
easy. Now things are about to get bloody, dangerous…and
wild.
