Romance Paranormal

Alex Trevino and his spotter Remy Boudreaux are on a SWAT lookout: they're hoping to capture the elusive drug dealers who have been wreaking havoc in Dallas. There is a new highly addictive, heroin-based drug on the market: eight people have died, and twenty more are in hospital. The morning after, Alex has an appointment to the vet's for his dog Tuffie. The regular vet is absent, he will have to deal with Dr. Lacey Barton, with whom Alex is instantly smitten. Lacey is lovely, sweet, and they bond over their common love of dogs. Alex has been a werewolf for barely a few years, and according to the legend, he wonders if Lacey could be "The One", his life mate.

However, the good doctor is not easily convinced they should even date at all. Lacey lives with her younger sister Kelsey, a student at Texas Regional College, and when they learn that a female from the same university has gone missing, Lacey starts to worry even more; Lacey is very protective of her sister, and this is not making things easier for her. Lacey has finally agreed to date Alex: he does not seem like the sort of animal her mother used to go out with, until Lacey sees just what sort of animal Alex really is!

Paige Tyler sure knows how to grab your attention! While the seeds of suspense are sown right at the beginning, WOLF UNLEASHED seemed to be heading more towards a warm and fuzzy romance. Lacey is recalcitrant to date at all, even the irresistible and charming Alex; their new relationship seems to be going smoothly until Lacey sees Alex's wolf. And there, my friends, is where you will have to hold on to your book -- or your e-reader -- for dear life, because WOLF UNLEASHED just might be Paige Tyler's best effort yet! What at first appear to be unconnected and rather horrifying subplots all tie in to shape a spellbinding suspense, and the story picks up speed as it goes along.

Alex is not a very adept werewolf until circumstances force his wolf to act, and boy, are those mind-blowing scenes! Remy Boudreaux, the suave Louisiana SWAT member is a welcome relief with his clever banter, because WOLF UNLEASHED is a seriously intense book. I found remarkable how Ms. Tyler created palpable types of atmospheres throughout the book: alternatively unsettling and cozy, juxtaposed with terror and warmth. There's also a very creepy bad guy, and the moment when Lacey realizes Alex's true nature is heartbreaking, scary, and very realistically handled. WOLF UNLEASHED is a fantastic addition to the SWAT series that keeps getting better and better!

SUMMARY

SHE BRINGS OUT THE WOLF IN HIM

Lacey Barton can't deny her crazy attraction to Alex Trevino, but that doesn't mean she has time for the gorgeous SWAT officer. She's hell-bent on discovering who's behind the brutal dogfights sending countless mauled animals to her veterinarian office. The trail leads Lacey to a ring of vicious drug dealers and suddenly she's in way over her head-right smack in the middle of a SWAT stakeout.

With Lacey in danger, Alex's wolf side is unleashed. But when she witnesses Alex shift, she's even more terrified... Now it's up to Alex to crack the case-and earn back Lacey's trust and, ultimately, her heart.
