Review: Mates in the Muddle
Rating: 5 out of 5

I love werewolves. Totally and completely. So I'm always on the lookout for new books that look that they will be decent. And then, a few days ago, I discover 5 NEW WEREWOLF books (!!!) and all by the same author. I started reading this book, got about 50 pages in, and bought the other 4, no questions asked.This book was excellent. I loved Elise. She's tough. She will stand up to the Alpha. But will he ever love her?! I loved Kane. He's had a rough life. He's just trying to do the right thing by his Pack. Oh, and what exactly do you do with a mate anyway (besides mate, that is)? All these questions will be answered. And the villain? Let's just say that you will know EXACTLY who the villain is from the first paragraph this person enters the story. And hell if this person isn't over-the-top evil. A great story has a great villain and this one delivers. Oh, how I wished many times that a house would fall out of the sky and land on this person's head, but I just had to wait until almost the very end to see if such a meteor would fall.I raced through this book, and I have a feeling that I'll race through the other 4. Therefore, I have emailed Ms. Charles and asked her to write faster.:)I only had one criticism - Elise gets set up for something, and Kane does something pretty damned awful to her.  I think the later circumstances they found themselves in saved him from a lot of groveling. A TON of groveling. And that should have been portrayed. Hint: Greta Rideout.Incidentally, I have no clue what all these complaints are about this book not being free. I have paid $6.99 for 150 pages of crap. I think paying $.99 for a 300 page book is well worth it.
