A Feast of Souls ( Araneae 2)
By Hailey Edwards
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Born with the ability to communicate with the dead, few things take Mana by surprise. But when a canis lopes into her life, announcing himself as the long-dead father of a childhood friend, she's shocked. To make matters worse, he has a dire message that she alone can deliver.

Now Mana must face Vaughn, the male who inspired one too many girlish fantasies, and impart the spirit's message--without acknowledging her source--so the soul can be laid to rest.

With rumors of a burgeoning clan war setting his nerves on edge, the last thing Vaughn needs is for an innocent to get caught in the crosshairs. But the woman he remembers as an awkward girl refuses to leave his side until he's heard her out. That's not the only change in her that calls to him. Her kindness soothes his battle-scarred soul--and he craves her in ways a warrior shouldn't.

When they are both captured, they learn of an even greater threat. The plague devastating the southlands has come to his clan home. And his best--and only--chance to keep his people alive is the female who walks among the dead.

I’m really starting to enjoy this series it’s getting better and better. This was very my favourite so far I love the unique clans and the story is so interesting. It shows the harshness as well as the good. There is so much packed into a short book.

A Time for Dying ( Araneae Nation 3)
By Hailey Edwards
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

They just might survive...if they don't kill each other first.

Once the future Segestriidae maven, Kaidi lived a privileged life. Now she spends her nights haunting cities ravaged by the plague. Spade in hand, she stalks rows of freshly dug graves for corpses...and then she takes their heads.

Her new life is caked in blood and spattered with gore, but it's hers. At least until--to her fury--she's caught napping.

A plague survivor by the skin of his teeth, Murdoch risks his neck to solve the mysteries left in its wake. Bodies have gone missing. Guards have left their posts and never returned home.

When he rouses a female dozing among the dead, he's unprepared for the violence of her response. Or his. Beneath the grime, she's lovely. Too bad the blood under her fingernails belongs to his clansmen.

He has no choice but to follow this alluring creature deeper into her world of winged beasts and flesh-eating monsters. She holds the knowledge he craves, but the price is high--and they may both pay for it with their lives.

I’ve become so invested in this series I absolutely love the different clans and how diverse they are. The story is just so interesting and the characters really are so well written you become part of that world. Really good read this brought us new characters while keep us updated on some old faces.

SIN is the first book in the Salvation series, and we meet Sin, Cassidy, Mercer, and others for the first time.

Sin is the son of Gideon and has been plotting his 'father's' downfall for years. This includes ensuring no one gets close to him other than Mercer, so they don't get hurt or become a target. This becomes a problem when Gideon marries Sheila, and her son, Cassidy, is brought into the fold. Cassidy is two years younger than Sin, and something about him immediately puts Sin into protection mode, even if it means sending Cassidy far away, out of his father's reach. Of course, something was going to happen, and Cassidy is brought home when Sin least expects it, throwing his plans into the air.

What a brilliant story! I loved how Cassidy and Sin's relationship evolved, even against Sin's wishes. Gideon is a real piece of work and deserved everything that came his way. I also thought Mercer was brilliant, especially his comments to Cassidy on his birthday. His story is next and I can't wait. I also hope we see more of Cassidy and Sin!

The epilogue was perfect, wrapping up their story nicely while leaving me wanting more, simply because I'm greedy. A great smoothly paced read, and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED by me.

NURSING THE ALPHA is a standalone story that I really hope expands into a series. It tells the story of Flynn, who was a surrogate for friends, but they decided they wanted a clean break from him so there wouldn't be mixed feelings. Which was great (!) but left him lactating, which most alphas dislike. So he helped out as a wet nurse for premature babies. He meets Seth one night as he's on his way home, literally falling into his lap. He has a little leakage though, and although one alpha turns away in disgust, Seth steps up and rescues him. Seth thinks Flynn is sweet and innocent. Little does he know...

Oh, but I loved this story. It is both sweet and smutty, innocent and filthy, and I am here for it! The reactions on both sides to certain situations were spot on and completely believable. I loved how Flynn's freaky side came out to play, and how he made Seth pay for lying to him. But most of all, I loved how they were together. So hot and it was caring, even when they indulged in primal play.

I love this author's Daddy books, and now it seems as though I love her omegaverse too! Loved every yummy moment and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED by me.
