Feral (Wolf Ranch #3) by Renee Rose and Vanessa Vale


This book is about Rob the oldest Wolf brother and pack leader. He needs to find a mate soon or he risks moon madness when the new neighbor Natalie moves in he discovers she's his mate but they both have secrets they are hiding from each other. Will they be able to get passed their challenges and be together? 

SPOILERS!!!!!!
This book was a lot of fun. I was really excited to get to finally read Rob's story and see him get his mate. I did not expect the story to go the way it did. I loved the arrival of Willow who is a DEA agent trying to bust Markle on drug charges. She's pretending to be Natalie and she does a good job of it until she doesn't. I felt bad about the way that Rob finds out her secret and she can't even explain herself. When she finally gets her evidence against Markle I was so surprised by what happened but was happy that Rob showed up when he did. Not to mention the big reveal about Willow's origins which I did not see coming and was a great twist. As always i'm happy the characters got their happy ever after. 

 I would recommend this book if you enjoyed the first two. REALLY hot sex, great characters, awesome story and overall wonderful read.

Wild (Wolf Ranch 2) by Vanessa Vale and Renee Rose

This book is about Marina the younger sister of Audrey from Rough and her budding romance with Colton the older brother of Boyd also from Rough. The two of them meet by accident and are forced to spend time together due to unforeseen circumstances. When Colton realizes that Marina is his mate can he do what he needs to keep her as his? 

 I really liked Marina she was a sweet character. I loved that she was wiling to be with Colton and the story was interesting seeing her struggle with realizing that she is good enough for him even though he was giving her mixed signals. I hated what happened with Marina and her dad and glad that she finally got confidence to tell her father what she really thought of him and that was fine because she had Audrey to support her and be the family she deserves. 

 Colton was unsure of himself. He definitely knew that he wanted Marina because she was his mate but he tried a little too hard to do what he felt was "right" because she was young and he was struggling with wanting her but letting her have a life. He definitely gave her mixed signals though he always ran to her to make sure shew as safe. 

 I liked that we got to see Markle again and I'm waiting for things to come to a head with him and the Wolf brothers so we'll see what happens with that story line that has been hinted at for two books now. 

 I definitely enjoyed this story and the relationships between all the characters and Audrey and Boyd's wedding. I wold recommend this book if you liked the first book.

This book is about a shifter Boyd who feels like the black sheep of the family and Audrey the human doctor his wolf choose as him mate. With both of them falling in love will their love survive their different species? 
 I really liked this book Boyd was sweet and wanted to do everything for Audrey and his pack. Audrey is clueless about his shifter nature but she's attracted to him and wants to start a family with him. There was tension between the two of them which made the sex super hot. I loved the ending and that they get their HEA.

T-Bone (Grade-A Beefcakes 2) by Vanessa Vale

Tucker, Colton and Ava were the best. This book was such a fun read. I really enjoyed that Ava was so feisty she definitely lives up to the guys nickname for her. The guys are fierce but also protective and supportive of her. The whole situation with her father was surreal I could not believe it and Perry wow talk about a jerk. This whole book just so fun and I really did enjoy seeing Kaitlyn and her men from the first book. A great story.

Montana Fire (Small Town Romance 1) by Vanessa Vale

This book was a lot of fun to read. It had a different feel than the usual books even though it's set in the familiar town. The story was crazy! Jane really was a magnet for danger! Ty was really inconsistent I found. He was hot one minute cold the next it was really weird not like Vale's usual heros. The things that happen in this book were very unexpected I really did not see any of the events coming! And the ending was shocking. This was a really good book and great first to a new series.

Lassoed (Steele Ranch 5) by Vanessa Vale

Finally we get to meet the final Steele sister. Natalie was sweet and kind and Ashe and Same were so protective. The whole story was a rollercoaster so many things happening at once and the plot twist. I kind of saw it coming but it was still cool. I loved seeing all the other sisters and their men and their kids. This series is a great read.

Hitched (Steele Ranch 4) by Vanessa Vale

This book tells the story of the 4th Steele sister Sarah. She has secret but she can't hide from King and Wilder her lovers. After a rocky start the three begin a relationship like no other, built on trust and love will they be able to weather whatever comes their way? 
 This book was really fun. I loved Sarah she was shy but not compeltely innocent and is willing to let Wilder and King teach her all about her sexuality and what being theirs means. King and Wilder are hot as heck and when they find out that Sarah's into BDSM like they are they don't hold back. Sarah meeting the other Steele sisters was a lot of fun, it's cute to see the other girls and how they are doing with their men. Another great story.

Wrangled (Steele Ranch 2) by Vanessa Vale

This book is about Penny she is the second Steele daughter to be found. She arrives on Steele ranch after returning home from Iceland where she was working on her Master thesis. Her life has been a life of loneliness and she hopes to find love and friendship on Steele Ranch. There she meets Jamison and Boone both older men who are hot as sin and she's attracted to them as they are to her. Can she find love with these two men and overcome her past? 
 I liked this book. Penny was sweet and caring but she still had a spine when it came time to confronting her mother. I like that she was a little naive but was willing to give things with Jamison and Boone a try. Both guys treated her like a queen and were very patient while listening to her doubts and fears as well as her dreams. Even though they are quite a bit older than her they know that she's the one they've been waiting for to make a home and family with. I loved the scenes where Kady and Penny were together and can't wait to see how they all interact when they find the other Steele sisters. Another fun addition to the series.

Omg I loved this book! It was so awesome! Kady was such a sweetheart and Cord and Riley were so hot! I loved finding out the story about Kady and her family and about the troubles her sister has. Of course that causes trouble for her but she's well taken care of when Cord, Riley and the other men of the ranch step up to protect her. Kady will have to decide if her old life is really what she wants or if she can start a new life with two wonderful men. I can't wait to meet the other sisters and their men.

The sex between the three of them is off the charts and they believe that they could get along well together.

Kiss Me Crazy (Bridgewater County 6) by Vanessa Vale

Avery grew up in Bridgewater but not in the traditional Bridgewater family. She has one mom and one dad instead of one mom and two dads. Oh and her parents hate each other. When she bumps into two friends from high school at an airport on her way home they have a crazy night in a hotel room. But Avery doesn't do relationships thanks to seeing her parents dysfunctional one all her life. Jackson and Dash don't get a chance to tell her their interested in more than a fling in an airport hotel. When their paths cross again once back in Bridgewater the guys will have to show Avery she isn't her parents and doesn't have to be and she's allowed to choose love for herself. 

 I loved this story! Avery's parents were the worst and then her sister I couldn't believe it! I was so sad for her that she couldn't realize that she can love the guys even though her parents don't love each other. Jackson and Dash are so patient with her, bringing her to the Christmas party trying to show her what normal is. I loved the meddling mother and aunt trying to get the three of them together. I thought it was cool that Avery's job is a travel writer but when she's heading into danger she makes the choice to return to her men. Loved that they found themselves again in an airport hotel at the end just like the beginning making the story come full circle. Another great read.

Make Me Yours (Bridgewater County 5) by Vanessa Vale

This story is about a woman named Lacey she's a popular actress but because of this her life is subject to constant scrutiny. After her fake boyfriend trashes her house as she returns from a press tour she leaves for Montana and takes up the reservation of her sister's honeymoon cabin. There she meets two hot cowboys, Bridgewater men who have been waiting for "the one". They have fling but unfortunately somehow the media gets a hold of pictures of Lacey and her hot cowboys in compromising positions. Not sure who to trust she leaves. Can these cowboys show her what she means to them and win her back? 

This story was sweet. I felt bad for Lacey because of her stupid ex-fake-boyfriend. Him destroying her house and using her bed was disgusting. I loved how Micah and Colt didn't care that she was famous they only cared about her. They were gentle and loving with her and protective when fans approached her. They were wiling to fight for her even after she said some mean things to them. Lacey in turn is love with both of them but doesn't know what to do. I loved that she was willing to give up the show to be with them but that they still wanted her to have her career. I love all the Bridgewater men, they're caring and loving and fiercely protective and the heroine's are always badass but in need of a little help. Another great addition to the Bridgewater County series.

Hold Me Close (Bridgewater County 4) by Vanessa Vale

This story is about a young woman named Rachel. She wants a family but has intimacy issues. After a very bad first encounter with her new boss she realizes that she probably won't ever get a man if she's uncomfortable of being touched. Matt and Ethan are Rachel's new bosses, when Matt tries to scare her away from other men at a rodeo he does it in the worst possible way and alienates her. He and Ethan knew from the first moment they saw her that she was meant to be theirs but after Matt's horrible first meeting with her she wants nothing to do with them. When they eventually clear up the miscommunication and admit to Rachel that they have feelings for her she's confused, happy and excited. Only there are a few things that can keep them apart. Will Rachel be able to realize that they truly love her for who she is? And will Matt realize that his dream is right in front of him?

 I really, really liked this book! I'm a little bit like Rachel right now, I would love a family and a child but the man that's the hard part but lucky for Rachel she has two hot Bridgewater men that want to love her. Matt really comes off as an asshole in this book but it really seems like he's unaware of the way he acts that only after he's acted does he realize he probably should have gone about things in a different way, it's no wonder Rachel was confused by him, Ethan is a sweetheart he's trying to keep the peace between the two of them. Rachel has a past that made her afraid of intimacy with men even though she wants a family she can't believe that two hot men like Matt and Ethan could want her. The three of them go through a lot to be together and of course get their HEA.

Take Me Fast (Bridgewater County 3) by Vanessa Vale

This is book 3 of the Bridgewater County series where we see the current day forming of menage relationships in Bridgewater. Ivy has always loved Cooper and Rory but they only get one night together before the guys leave for boot camp. Now it's years later and the three of them are older. Rory and Cooper know they want Ivy and after searching for her for years they finally find her. Unfortunately she's not sure if she can be with them anymore because she has a secret that will change all their lives.

 This book made me so emotional I was crying and smiling a lot. Ivy is a strong woman who had to make hard decisions but she didn't want to ruin Rory and Cooper's dreams or their careers. When they find out about her secret the guys are even more invested in getting her back into their lives. Lily is such a cutie and it was really fun to see the interaction between her and the guys (I wish the book had been longer so I could have read more scenes with them). As always in a Bridgewater book the sex is hot! The guys are determined to show Ivy that she's meant to be with them. And she knows it too because she is also from Bridgewater. I love seeing the thought process from the characters who were born in Bridgewater versus the thoughts of characters just arriving in Bridgewater for the first time. The faith and believe by Bridgewater people that when they know they've found the ones they KNOW is always fun to read. Another great addition to the series.

Claim Me Hard (Bridgewater County 2) by Vanessa Vale

This is book 2 of the Bridgewater County series. It's set long after the original Bridgewater series and it's about the descendants of the original Bridgewater men. Cole and Declan have grown up in Bridgewater seeing the love that comes from one woman with multiple men and they know that they want to share a woman together. Enter Hannah she's on the run from an abusive ex and she's doing everything to stay hidden. She's happy but fearful in the town of Bridgwater always looking over her shoulder. Declan and Cole knew from the moment they saw Hannah that she was meant to be theirs but they can see that she's hiding something. They are willing to do whatever it takes to show her that want to protect and cherish her.

 I'm a big fan of the original Bridgwater series so this new contemporary version is a lot of fun! Hannah is kick ass but afraid of her ex not knowing what to do. As a doctor she's seen women with abusive husbands/boyfriends but she never thought she'd become one of those women. When she runs away to Bridgewater she is instantly attracted to Cole and Declan. I love reading about her struggle with her emotions. She has to realize the difference between dominance and abuse. Coel and Declan are patient men and are willing to take as much time as she needs. When they find out about her ex they are on her side and doing everything they can to protect her. As always the relationships are genuine and the sex is hot! Another great addition to the series.

Ride Me Dirty (Bridgewater County 1) by Vanessa Vale

This is the first book in the Bridgewater County series. It is about the descendants of the men of the Bridgewater Menage series. This contemporary series is just as hot as it's original historical series. Catherine used to come to Bridgewater all the time to visit her uncle until she was 12 and her parents stopped taking her there. It's now years later and she's all grown up. Her uncle has passed away and left his land to her. Catherine is super busy with her job trying to get promoted in her law firm but keeps getting screwed at every turn by the sexist men she works for. She is unable to take a break from her job until she meets Sam and Jack. Sam is now a lawyer in Bridgewater but he is all too familiar with the time of nonstop work that Catherine does because he did the same before coming home to Bridgwater. He is in the perfect position to help her turn off her brain and just feel. He and Jack are ready to settle down and they are sure that Catherine is the one for them. Now all they have to do is convince her to give up her old life to start a new one with them.

 This new series is just as hot as the original Bridgewater Menage series but in a contemporary setting. I really like Catherine she was convinced she knew what she wanted but Jack and Sam were able to show her that there could be more. Sam and Jack are just as dominant and affectionate as the original Bridgewater men but still allowing Catherine to have her independence. The sex is hot as always and the attraction between the three of them is off the charts.

Flirting with the Law (Outlaw Brides 1) by Vanessa Vale

This story is about a woman named Maddie who is a widow and has lost everything. She lost her home and her father when a greedy bank owner raises their mortgage and burns their house to the ground when they refuse to sell. She has resorted to becoming an outlaw. She is robbing banks to get back the money she's due after her home goes up in flames. She has the help of two other women who have also lost their homes to this greedy bank owner. Maddie is ready for her last bank robbery but things don't always go according to plan and she's forced to do another robbery. Before that happens she meets two very handsome men named Seth and Landon. These two men have been searching for a wife and Maddie is the one. When she can't get a room at the hotel in which they are staying Landon offers his. With no other choice but to accept Maddie joins the two men for dinner. Sexual tension is high during the meal and the men make very bold suggestions and demonstrate that they are interested in Maddie carnally. Being a widow Maddie has the option to accept their proposition and she does. After a hot night of sex in ways she could have never imagined she wakes up to find out that Seth and Landon are US marshals. Somehow she ends marrying the two men but then she must hide the crimes that she's committed.

 This was a great book! I love all of Vanessa books she writes really hot M/f/M and I love her characters. Maddie is feisty and I liked that she wasn't a virgin but was still innocent. She thinks she's doing the right thing by robbing banks to get hers and her friend's money back that was stolen from them but she knows she's breaking the law so after she finds out the Seth and Landon are US Marshals and marries them she worries about them finding out about her crimes and turning her in. But of course as all of the men in Vale's books they are willing to hear her out and help her with the situation in which she is in. The sex like always is hot hot! I liked that this still had the same feel as her other series but I found the sex was a little rougher I guess you could which had it's appeal. I'm really excited to see what stories Maddie's two friends will have. Will they be outlaws simply because they helped Maddie rob banks or will they get into other trouble in their own books? I'm excited to see the continuation of this new series.

Their Runaway Bride (Bridgewater Prequel) by Vanessa Vale

This is where the Bridgewater Series begins. Ann is with her father on a boat headed to New York. He has plans to marry her but she doesn't want to marry the man her father has chosen for her. So she runs from him. The problem is she's on a boat so it's kind of hard to run away so she's mostly hiding. But she can't hide in her cabin because her father will find her. So she hides in a random cabin. Unknowingly hiding in Robert and Andrew's cabin. Both men want to marry the same woman. They found out about the practice of more than one man sharing a wife while serving their country abroad. So when they returned to the US they decided to start a ranch with other soldiers where they can live this lifestyle. They aren't shy with Ann and tell her upfront that if she marries one she marries the other. Willing to do anything to escape an undesired marriage she agrees.

 This book is a great introduction to the Bridgewater series. Ann is feisty but also sweet she's unsure of how to deal with two men but she wildly attracted to them both and doesn't want to marry the man her father has chosen for her. She learns about how sex with two men works and that they will go to any lengths to protect her. The series has an interesting premise which I really enjoy because threesome/menage stories are hot as hell and this story is no exception. The characters are well written and it's an interesting read.

Their Brazen Bride (Bridgewater Menage 8) by Vanessa Vale

I really like this book. Abigail was awesome, I love how she knew about how the men at Bridgewater live and she still wanted to be with Gabe and Tucker. I love that she was so selfless and willing to put herself in danger to save others. I love that Gabe and Tucker were able to look past her scar and see that it was the mark of her courage.
