Book 1 "Granite Lake Wolves". Followed byWolf Flight.Under the Northern Lightsis a print anthology containing "Wolf Signs" and "Wolf Flight".Plot:Robyn thought she'd have a quiet getaway, away from difficult interactions and the hub-bub of city living. What she didn't expect was two sexy men who a) thought they were wolves, b) thought one was mated to her, and c) were heading from the cabin to a death-match. Life likes to throw surprises.Comments:- Contemporary paranormal (shape shifting and telepathy) erotic romance.- 1917 kindle locations, 27,588 words (novella). Finishes around 1730 kindle locations.- m/f - explicit, often, loving, telepathic.- Includes excerpts fromCry Sanctuaryby Moira Rogers andTemptation Unleashedby Kari Thomas.- Robyn is deaf, and not only is that an important aspect of the storyline, but it helps to define her.Opinion:What a nice book. An easy read as Robyn and Keil find each other and make themselves a life together. It is short, but it's also part of a series. You see, while it technically stands alone, it comes to a rather abrupt ending. We get a whole lot of World Definition, some hot sex, a return to civilisation, and then it ends. But that ending is picked up during the next book, so we see how Robyn and Keil are getting on, from a slightly different perspective. An interesting technique which will polarise readers, but works for me. (And since Arend also published the two books in paperback, possibly indicative of a greater plan). A good read with clever characters and an interesting use of telepathy.-CR-
