I received this book from the author in exchange for a fair and honest review.

This book takes a snapshot look at Jess after the ending of Splintered. We already know that her memories have been taken away from her and this book gives you an insight into how it will affect a person and their friends and family as they try to figure out just who they are. Add into that the whole wolf hierarchy as well as it's going to get complicated. Things are made even more difficult as Alec has lost a lot of the goodwill from the pack following the finale of Splintered.

This is a short story so please don't expect the depth and intrigue of the others but it still shows just how difficult things are. One of the things that I liked about this is that it's from Jess' point of view. As the most submissive, she is one of the least heard from out of the pack so I loved that this was about her.

If you are following the Reflections series (and if you're not, then why not?!) then this is definitely not one to miss out.

SHIFTED REALITY is the first book in the Looking Glass Multiverse series and it had everything here that I like - wolf shifters, authors, BDSM - but somehow, this just didn't work for me.

The first half of the book concentrated mainly on Iris and Rogan - so much so that I had to re-read the blurb to remind myself just who this was supposed to be about. Angelique and Rogan don't even meet until approximately 55-60% of the way through the book, and then they pretty much shoot straight for the stars. Who needs to get to know anyone anyway?

My overall feeling when I finished the book was "Is that it?" Although well-written, the parts with Angelique and Rogan felt incredibly rushed and left me with loads of questions that just weren't answered.

Although the blurb of book two sounds good, as well as the epilogue in this book, I don't think I'll bother. I'm sure others will love this book and the series but it's just not for me.

ALL HE WANTS FOR CHRISTMAS IS A FINGERLING is a unique (as far as I know) #Paranormal #MPreg book that is the first in a series and offers you a delightful mix of sweet and sassy.

Frenchie is a potato shifter. Yep, you heard me. A POTATO SHIFTER. He shifts into a potato and all is well with the world. Came as quite a shock to our grumpy wolf, Tala, too. Misunderstandings abound before fate kicks in.

This is the first book in the series, and I'm really looking forward to returning. I'm hoping to get some resolution about just why Frenchie was attacked in the first place. It's hinted at but I want more. I'm so greedy! I know the next book won't focus (probably) on Tala and Frenchie but I'm hoping that it will come out as the story progresses.

This was a fun-filled, frolic of a book that I thoroughly enjoyed and read in one sitting. Absolutely recommended by me.

This is a real friends-to-lovers story, complete with hidden feelings on one side. However, what made this story exceptional to me is the way in which it is written and the believable, likeable characters that Megan Linden gives us. Told from dual points of view, you hear from both Tyler and Kevin as they realise how deep their feelings for each other are, and what this means as one is an Alpha's Son, whilst the other is a lone wolf.

I loved how it was Mom B, the Beta, who spoke to Kevin and gave him the reassurance he needed. It wasn't just swept under the carpet in a "love conquers all" way. No, he was told that loving a Harrington was tough, but it was worth it!

This novella has it all - friendship, romance, it has some hot scenes without being gratuitous, and it has definitely left me wanting more. Absolutely adored this book and I'm looking forward to returning to Harrington Hills as soon as I can. Highly recommended.
