Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 07 17, 2012
Book 5 "Granite Lake Wolves". Preceded by "Wolf Tracks".Plot:Jared has secrets. When his Mate finds out them all, will they be able to make the HEA work?Comments:- Contemporary paranormal (shape shifting and telepathy) erotic romance with mild dramatic subplot.- 2045 kindle locations, 33,513 words (novella). Finishes around 1838 kindle locations.- f, m/f - explicit, loving, sometimes hurried and mating aggressive. Light voyeurism. Not overly frequent.- Characters from previous books appear and play a role in "Wolf Line". However, it would comfortably stand alone with no major overarching plots to deal with.- Jared was part of the competition team in "Wolf Games".- Includes excerpts from "Wolf Tracks" by Vivian Arend, and "Hunter's Prey" by Moira Rogers.Opinion:Typical of Arend's other works, "Wolf Line" is an easy, enjoyable paranormal where the Lust Imperative drives the rapid bedroom scenes and the Wolf rides the man. I enjoyed the "trapped on a boat" scenario, along with Jared's other secrets that make for miscommunication and comedic farce. It was nice. It was fun. A good twist. But it was fast.Disappointingly, the low word count means a sudden conclusion to an enjoyable drama. I wanted more from the story, and feel a little short changed. But I still liked it.3.5 stars rounded up. The story was good, and fits well into the series. A nice addition for fans.-CR-
