LONE WOLF is the first book in the Exiled Omegas series and we start off with a pack that isn't interested in 'new' thinking, preferring to stick to the old traditions. This doesn't work for Keir, especially as it means his death. With help from Luke, the alpha's son, he escapes and tries his best to hide from all packs.

What follows is roughly two weeks of time where multiple kidnap attempts, shifter trafficking, fated mates, old blood laws, and multiple challenges are held, and I'm sure I've missed something out! If you're looking for a fast-paced book, this is definitely one of those!

With it being so fast-paced, I actually missed some of the softer times between Julien and Keir. Yes, they're fated mates, but they really didn't have much time to get to know each other before things went crazy - one way or another.

The epilogue gives a nice closure to their story, whilst leaving me wanting more. I really want to know about the kidnapped babies! A great beginning to a new series and definitely recommended by me.

This is one of those books that you pick up and, even though you have read the synopsis, you're still not sure exactly what it is you've let yourself in for.

What I got is a book that I completely immersed myself in. I was lost within Renny's world of school, flying carpets, and first love. I loved the dream meetings she had with Parnell, as well as the Kettle meetings. These characters have a wide range of ages, and as such, it is a well-rounded group that you read about. The struggles that Renny faces are real, but she still manages to find time for love. And let's face it, what 17-year-old girl wouldn't do the same?

However, Flight of the Wren is not all sweetness and light. There is a 'big bad' in the shape of Mistral, an old apprentice of Parnell's. With kidnap, violence, friendship, loyalty, and more, this is one eventful book that will tug at your heartstrings, whilst giving you a thrilling ride. I absolutely loved this book, and can't wait to read Spark. Highly recommended.

Felicity is in the wrong place at the wrong time. She is kidnapped by a convoy lead by a sheikh and taken to his palace to be his queen. There is no way in hell she is going to give up her company to become his bride and live halfway across the world. She has to figure out how to help him but also gain her freedom.

Zakir Al-Nazari is the ruling sheikh of Al-Shakhra and needs a bride asap. His government is losing faith in his ruling capabilities and the only way he can figure to keep the peace is to take a bride. He was trying to kidnap the bride meant for a neighboring sheikh but the intel was wrong and he ended up with Felicity. Now he needs to convince her to stay and help him and his country.

I am not typically a sheikh genre fan but given the fact that I adore Jackie Ashenden I gave it a go. It was a good book but it didn’t sway me to the genre haha. I will say however that I enjoyed it more than I ever thought I would and I credit her writing style for that. If you haven’t read anything by Jackie before I would highly recommend her. If sheikh’s tickle your fancy try Never Seduce a Sheikh or Never Refuse a Sheikh.
