iamaddictedtobooks, I'm dislocated by your question!!!

At the showtime of Declan'due south pov information technology's explained that Rachelle institute her mate amongst the wolf pack, to Peter, and that she had an arranged 500yo mating with Gerald DuBois and is the female parent of Andre DuBois.

Andre is the vampire that grabbed Meryn'due south arm in volume 6 leaving a mark, the twins gave him diarrhea, later when she, Eva and Ryuu become outside to the lord's day, the warrior Warrick DuBois, huge vampire, and cousin to Andre comments that unfortunately Andre takes after is father, instead of his lovely aunt.

In this book Warrick "mates" with Avery and is disowned by the DuBois "@ssh*les".

Resuming:
Rachelle was "forced" into a mating with Gerald DuBois, gave birth to Andre Dubois and 500 years afterwards finds that her true destined mate is a wolf shifter named Peter.

Magnus mate is yet to show... (less)

By the end, I just wanted to stop the story and be washed with it. Even Meryn, who I actually really like, got on my nerves, since she wasn't as smart as usual and at times she came across even more young and bitchy. Anybody said how she'south a genius but I actually didn't see her actions equally something special.

At the beginning I liked the style the story unfolded. I always beloved to encounter the characters from previous books, and so that is always a plus. But subsequently the main characters of this story found each other, the plot went downhill. The unnecessary details from Declans sexual past (and right before they mated, might I add) made this story impossible for me to enjoy. I beloved Alder's books because she doesn't do drama but in this story I felt like I was reading a book by a whole dissimilar writer. Kari was a great character and made the whole story a scrap better, but even so...

That's just how I felt about this book, and then that doesn't mean you lot won't enjoy it. Try information technology and see for yourself, y'all might finish up liking it more me. :)

2.5 stars. This felt similar a filler volume, something to read in between books about the master characters. It didn't feel similar a total length novel, more novella in terms of the character depth and development.

The author has moved the series from Lycaonia to Noctem Falls and I find that's downgraded information technology for me. I know, mixing it upwards and all, but it lost a lot of what I loved about the previous books and it hasn't been replicated in this new setting. The other outcome is setting the books around Meryn so heavily and sidelining the primary couple. That was my problem with the previous book equally well. Even Aiden, Meryn's mate, has decreased in his grapheme to a kind of standby husband. I'm happy to encounter previous characters again, simply not to the detriment of the main couple's story. Having so much Meryn focus reduced the couple'due south progression and made it feel like everything they did was a reaction to Meryn vs their own actions.

My hope for the next book is that it either leaves the Noctem Falls setting or we finally go Keelan'due south volume. His really should've been next. Each of the books after Kendrick (#5) has been most other unit warriors we haven't previously met & I don't discover them interesting. Then time for Keelan's book.

Because he cried everytime she told him she loves him.

I thought he was disrespectful to the h. H and h had interviews with other paranormal women and half of them were H's ex-sexual practice buddies. h didn't know that and when ane of these women started yapping about their sex and suggesting another circular, what does the H practice? Nothing. He winces. Winces like a piddling pussy that he is and says you lot know I don't involve with the mated ones. This OW tries to kiss him and she probably would if the h hadn't stepped in.

description

Soon after this they went to his house to mate and this is the major turn off from his bedchamber conversation:

..."I wanted something special for my mate."
"And yet y'all brought other women here?"
He shrugged. "I never had sexual activity with them in the bed," he stopped and looked up at the ceiling as if counting. "No non in the bed. Confronting the bed, one under the bed, 1 on the nightstand, in the cupboard, on the bathroom flooring, in front end of the fireplace..."

description

To sum information technology upward: nil chemical science between MCs, no funny dialogues, not an alpha hero, too many characters with the like names, not enough development... I enjoyed some of the parts and the h was really likable. There were 2 scenes in the book where H acted like he should, merely it was too late for moi.

The B&B serial is still ane of my paranormal fave ones and I look forward to read the side by side installment.

Too, I have been over Meryn for the concluding couple of books. She is the only person that has been totally fleshed out which I believe is why AA always allow Meryn to play a meaning function in each volume. Information technology is and so bad at present that Aiden, who I loved in book #1 is at present a shell of himself that is just a yeah homo. Kari's "adopted" older blood brother Police has absolutely no role in this book even though he is the closest thing to a family for her excluding Avery. This volume was such a disappointment and I experience cheated with the antics to stretch out the series. I no longer care if I do not notice out who is killing the paranormals. I don't care most who these invisible things are and who is controlling them and making them. I no longer care if Keeland volition render. I no longer care about who is trying to gain power over the paranormals. None of these things have been answered in the final 3, yes I said three BOOKS. There have been no new disharmonize nor answers and /or progression in the sometime conflicts. ...more

The threats are revealing themselves in Noctem Falls and with Kari's astute observation and the help of Meryn's troops all should exist safe as long as they tin can figure it out who is behind the hidden threats.

Another delightful story by Alanea Alder. I liked the characters in this one, Kari enjoys the amusement of watching others. Had a few express mirth out loud moments that had me cracking up. Everyone is corking, anxious to encounter what is next for the Bewitched and Bewildered crew.

All while paranormals go along to exist targeted by an unknown. The killer thought to exist i of Noctem Falls ain.

* * * *

Every bit a big time fan of this writer and series (sorry Ms Alder for going all fan girl on y'all at the Lori Foster convention but in my defence force information technology was a dream come true to meet you), I was totally excited to get my grubby little hands on this new installment.

Of note for anyone wondering if they could read this book if they haven't already read any previous in the series. Nope, this is a series that builds off previous installments and so absolutely goose egg ability to read it as a stand solitary. In fact, for those who have already read the serial and are now looking to read this one - do a quick over of previous installments to re-familiarize yourself with by characters and roles they play. Side note to author: please consider including a glossary and/or map of the different characters and relationship dynamics for time to come installments.

This is an writer who has a totally different writing style than what I'm used to. I liken her writing to the Broadway musical Hamilton. Boring U.s.a. history, infused with rap and hip hop music scores and an awesome screenplay, made information technology relevant and interesting. It'southward become one of the biggest hits of modern Broadway for a reason. In the example of Ms. Alder, she's included geekdom, gaming, Dr. Who, Lord Of The Rings and other millennial interests that I haven't seen many other authors infuse in their characters so inclusively. Meryn (series key heroine) is the girl I could run into creating mayhem and chaos because she's that good. Intelligent, stray, loyal, with a strategic vindictive listen, Meryn is the daughter you actually don't want to piss off. That includes harming those she considers 'hers' because no 1 hurts anyone she considers family without consequences.

On to this book/story. Kari is another strong female person atomic number 82 character in the series. She is a vampire so the whole concept of mating is nothing new. Her mate, Declan, is a king of beasts shape shifter. Finding his mate has ever been something he's desperately wanted just knows it can't be forced and is willing to wait. Their initial run into up is quite the drama just does give the reader a hint of things to come. This includes interacting with characters from previous installments including Meryn.

The actual adult content romance between the ii main characters is less intense and graphic than I'd like simply nonetheless has some heat. My have is that fans of low intensity adult content scenes volition relish these scenes while those fans who are looking for the toe crimper v alert scenes will exist disappointed.

Every bit for the earth building. This mythical pillar metropolis is but that - mythical. It has no ground of reality and therefore cannot be taken as such. Yet, at that place's a magical feeling that drew me in wishing in that location COULD exist.

The story line itself is non stop action adventure with a side of urban fantasy/paranormal. There is a suspense/mystery sub plot that volition tease the reader but I really didn't get much in the way of this being more than a side item. In other words, no Sherlock Holmes detective skills required. sigh

The biggest part of the story though is the interaction between characters. Reading an installment in this series is similar going domicile to check on how all my favorites are doing and who the 'new guy' (or daughter as the case may be) is. It can go disruptive with all the comings and goings just isn't that but the manner family unit get togethers are anyway? Enjoy them while you can because you never know....

I didn't want to finish my review without mentioning problem areas I had with this story. The outset is that I did come across several proof/editing issues that threw me off (considering I do detect them). Second is the lack of actual love and affection. Aiden & Meryn. Gavriel & Bethy. Adriel & Eva. My own personal opinion is they acted more similar affectionate brother/sister combos than mates.

I too realize that Meryn is cardinal to the series and rightly and then.. merely.. the author needs to exist more than cognizant that the featured couple in an existing story need to be the stars. I wanted more Kari and more than Declan to take come through to give me the noesis that were important and not but a side evidence for Meryn and her ongoing scheming and plans to conquer the paranormal world.

Bottom line is that I do honey the series and tin't wait for Avery/Merrick, Law/????, Male monarch/???, to find their HEA, just I too need to know how the whole Keelan issue is going to play out. That and Ryuu.

ps.. Does it make me a douche purse if I inquire when or if Dennis volition e'er come back?

Nosotros accept read in the series enough about vampires, bear shifters, and witches....would have like to dig a bit further into the panthera leo shifter aspect. Due to his graphic symbol existence well written not simply due to power and charisma his story would take been more appealing

Kari seemed to be the main point of the novel. There were attempts at making her badass but they were attempts not successes. She reminded me to much of Bethy (whom I honey, so nosotros do not need another Bethy).

I am hoping the series picks dorsum up in book eight. Afraid it will still exist based in Noctum Falls leaving this reader feeling a smidge sad.

Happy Reading! DD

I love unique paranormal romance, addicted to danger, action, adventure & suspense, completely smitten with sexy, blastoff heroes, adore sassy, courageous heroines, and there's zippo I enjoy more than a few mind-bending plot twists along with a generous infusion of laugh-out-loud humor, only when I can get it all in one exceptionally well-crafted and beautifully written volume, I'm in absolute heaven! And that's exactly what Alanea Alder delivered - Over again - in My Champion, the seventh full-length paranormal romance in her riveting and highly imaginative Bewitched & Bewildered Series. Did I like this volume? No, I LOVED it! Was it perfect? No, but it was perfect for me. There were a few little boo-boos missed in the editing process, but nothing that distracted me from the story. Would I recommend it? You bet, and I am but only for developed readers since it does contain explicit language, some violence, and steamy, dreamy sexual practice. Will I read this author once more? Admittedly which is probably the all-time recommendation I tin can give! Every bit a affair of fact, after completing the showtime book of this serial, I raced back to Amazon and purchased the remaining nine books and signed upward for her newsletter, which speaks volumes every bit to how much I enjoyed this author's work! And finally, was I entertained? Completely! I was glued to my chair, white-knuckling my ereader, my heart fluttering wildly in my chest as the pages flew as quickly every bit the time!

The serial takes a chip of a turn in Volume half dozen when Unit of measurement Commander Aiden McKenzie and his firecracker mate Meryn leave Lycaonia to visit vampire pillar city Noctem Falls, Naturally, they are accompanied by Meryn'south squire Sei Ryuu and, of course, Felix the sprite along with old Noctem Falls resident Elizabeth Monroe and her mate Gavriel Ambrosios. Aiden, Meryn, Ryuu, Felix, Beth and Gavriel are all recurring characters readers have gotten to know in the previous books of the series and ever add so much to each story. We're introduced to an entire new cast of intriguing characters only the principal couple in this story is unit warrior panthera leo-shifter Declan Lionhart, aka call sign Simba (yeah, that'south a nod to ane of Meryn's and my favorite movies, The Lion King), and vampire Kari Delaney, personal assistant trainer, corporate organizer extraordinaire, and very successful business owner. I vicious in love with the handsome, happy-go-lucky Declan, though he's likewise a bit of a mystery. Only in one case again, wait until you find out his family connections! Shhh... No spoilers from me. And the lovely Kari is the epitome of grace, efficiency, keen intelligence, and heartwarming devotion to those she loves, like her adopted brother, sugariness trick shifter Avery Therian. Kari and Declan were perfect for each other! Kari was simply the adult female to tame Noctem Falls' very own Don Juan and she didn't even have to use a whip! Sigh... And so dreamy! And naturally, Meryn, her minions Jaxson and Noah, along with her two newly adopted twin 'baby Keelans' provide loads of laughter and shenanigans galore! And once once more, this story ripped my center out of my chest! I snickered, snorted, sniffled, snuffled, chuckled, and outright ugly cried through the entire story! Simply but a little warning, folks, don't start this book unless you have plenty of fourth dimension; you will not want to stop until you lot reach the last page. I should know; I've spent the last week binge-reading the entire series! lol... Alanea Alder, you lot're killing me! If you bask perilous danger, intense drama, agonizing angst, pulse-pounding activeness, nail-biting suspense, side-splitting humour, heartwarming romance, and a few listen-blowing plot twists that you'll never run into coming, then this book is screaming your proper name. Extraordinary globe building, exceptional character introduction/development, along with highly intelligent, skilled plot progression make this series a fabulous, can't-put-down read! Thank you for the recommendation Fran Zoch!

Personally, I don't enjoy giving "SPOILERS" equally a rule, so I believe the general synopsis in a higher place or on the book flap if it'south a difficult copy should give you all the data you need. I do include the basics under synopsis though. If you'd like to know my overall thoughts & feelings about the book or author, delight check the "Personal Stance" section. Also, if this is a book in a series, nether "Characters," you'll about likely find a fu-bo list. While reading, authors tend to introduce usa to numerous characters and I notice I wonder if they will go their own book, so I decided to include this in my review. I will endeavor not to include "SPOILERS" if in that location are any. And now to my review:

I know this volume has for some reason received less than stellar reviews, then I inquire anyone who might be interested to check out my PO department, where I address some of the concerns I saw in other reviews.

General Synopsis:
This is the seventh book in Alanea Alder's [Bewitched and Bewildered] serial, focusing on the romance between Kari Delaney, a vampire and Declan Lionheart, a lion shifter. We also have some unexpected matings happening in this book, then that is something to look frontwards to. Too my fangirl meter skyrocketed through the roof while reading this book . . . so many new fu-bos, plus LAW and I am totally worshiping at the alter of Alanea Alder Once again. Did I mention nosotros finally get to formally see Police in this book, considering if I didn't, nosotros become to come across Police force! ♡✧( ु•⌄• )

Keelan
Adam
Adair
Ben
Sascha
Lennox (yes, I know he'due south only "just an adult" in paranormal years, just …)
Jaxon (same every bit to a higher place)

Personal Opinion:
So, I know a lot of people have had issues with Avery Therian, Kari's adopted blood brother, mentioning he is very kittenish, etc. In paranormal years, he is a child even so. He has not reached his 100th year, which is kind of like eighteen-21 years of age for us humans. Besides, Kari herself admits "Because Avery is special. He has a genius level IQ, but the naiveté of a kid. I have had to protect him ever since I found him ten years ago." To be honest and I am non certain if this is a spoiler, but I believe Avery is a fennec pull a fast one on and reminds me of Ashby from Fated for Forever Kindred of Arkadia 3 .

In that location is likewise some growth to the series in my opinion, and I am not just talking about my every growing fu-bo list and wherein Ms. Alder might come to hate me as yes, I will go on hoping someday they will ALL have their very ain HEA. In this book I felt nosotros are beginning to see a little more of the political unrest in Noctem Falls, also as bodily growth of the diverse different pillar cities. I run across lots of threads which are existence woven in and make me want to continue to read the serial so I might see where they volition go. Both Storm Go on and Eiru Danu are mentioned in this book once more, which encourages me, as a reader, to hope Meryn & co. will be going there in the future to try and help out the paranormal world found within this series.

At that place ARE a few grammatical errors, merely this has been true in a majority of the books in this series, just I'd similar to point out two things. #ane) They are not serious errors and if anything, they mainly remind me of that paper that gets passed around, you know the one I am talking about, the ane that shows you your brain replaces words or misspelt words as you're reading. & #2) I am non 100% certain, but I believe this series is self published, then aye, perhaps we should ask the beta readers to take a lilliputian more than time reading the book so those petty errors can be found, just at the same time (and I am completely jealous of them, because HEY, they get to read this amazing series before you or I), sometimes a reader who is enjoying the series, just wants to read the book, to immerse themselves back into this amazing earth, so a few grammatical errors might not been seen.

Now for totally ME!, because allow'south exist honest, it'due south about my thoughts . . . sometimes. And before you worry that all I am going to do is gush on Law, and I totally AM when I talk most it to people, considering I have been waiting for Thane, Justice, & Law Ashleigh since we heard about them dorsum in My Savior! And then yes, we meet Police force in this book and he is totally a BA! (view spoiler)[We also detect out he has a past with Meryn before she knew almost paranormals! (hibernate spoiler)]

So, you are probably getting bored and your eyes are getting glazed over reading this long, long review, but I only need to add together iii quotes and a little information equally to why they made this review.

"The world is a darker place. How could this happen! It's a conspiracy! Evil has taken root in the earth!" Meryn ranted. I cannot assistance it, this happens when Meryn finds out Netflix no longer has "Doctor Who." I completely understand, as this was my response to when Netflix and Hulu stopped streaming information technology. & when I found out yous can sentry it on Amazon Prime, I was upset because my Apple Television set does not accept that option. And so Meryn, I feel your pain.

"Toss it. I only wrote that information technology was urgent considering the person making the complaint was watching. Anything on a light-green Post-it note tin go in the garbage, the truly important notes are always on cream newspaper." - Magnus to Kari, who is training him every bit his new PA.

& lastly, Meryn shrugged. "Information technology can't perchance be a bad idea if my future cocky hasn't traveled dorsum in time to finish me." Eva's mouth twitched. "Is that the basis for your decision making?" - I have decided I might prefer this philosophy in the future. I hope that is ok with with Ms. Alder.

Romance Between The Sheets
MY CHAMPION is the seventh book in the Bewitched and Bewildered series and was another enjoyable read. The story continues on from MY GUARDIAN and follows the mating of Declan (lion shifter) and Kari (vampire), and we're still in Noctem Falls.

MY CHAMPION is the seventh book in the Bewitched and Bewildered series and was another enjoyable read. The story continues on from MY GUARDIAN and follows the mating of Declan (lion shifter) and Kari (vampire), and we're still in Noctem Falls. With twenty books planned for this series, I assume that each of the four pillar cities will get five books apiece, and that only the highest ranking Unit Warriors for each city will have stories written near them.

I'll be honest, I don't retrieve much about Declan at all. Kari was a bit more memorable with her have-accuse-and-become-things-done personality, but I can't say much else about her either. Why? Because unlike the offset v books in this series, the couple and their human relationship hasn't been the main focus of the story for books six and vii. Instead, the focus has shifted to Meryn and trying to figure out what's going on in the paranormal world. While I'm very interested in the conspiracies that have been going on for centuries, I'thou disappointed that it's at the expense of the romance side of things.

On top of the lack of romance, there are a few other minor issues. I agree with what others have said about Meryn becoming more childish as the series progresses. I'm hoping we'll see the old Meryn again in future books, especially when she seems to be connected to everything that's going on. Quite a few conversations felt disjointed and hard to follow, with topics changing at random before turning back around to a previous topic. Finally, with so many new characters being introduced, they're all starting to mistiness together. I constitute myself having to stop quite a few times and saying to myself "Who is this person again?".

If you're still reading this review, you might exist wondering why I've given MY CHAMPION five❤ when it sounds like I didn't enjoy the book. Well, it'southward considering despite what I've said in a higher place, I did savour it. There were scenes that had me laughing out loud and the story arc has me chomping at the chip for the side by side book.

MY CHAMPION is told in dual POVs, with the epilogue being told in Grant's POV as he'll get the next book. While each book is about a different couple, the books in this series cannot exist read every bit a stand-lone and must be read in order.

Together these two meet in well-nigh an anarchistic nonetheless comical way. As we get more into this series we continue to acquire more about Noctem Falls. This book also has some very calorie-free hearted moments that will have you smiling for days as the Vampire city starts to loosen up a bit. Of course we have some of the original characters Aiden, Beth, Gavriel and Meryn who are quite prominent in this book besides.

Meryn does requite u.s. those antics of hers that we are merely tin't practise without at the most inappropriate moments of course which makes you outburst out laughing.

I volition say though that I do really miss some of the original gang from Lycaonia and wish I could see more of them.

As per usual with this series, although this is technically almost the mated couple ... yous kind of get everyone else from previous and future books equally as much in here. I beloved that. Im never bored reading these stories. There total of unique dynamic characters who all add something groovy to the story. The storyline is seemless with some hilarious humour, a trivial sadness, a lot of love, some downright naughty time, and a niggling walk down memory lane. Oh and a few new surprises too!.

Kari and Declan are the new mates in this story and exercise not disappoint. Their chemistry is great. Their first coming together was definitely a dissimilar take on finding your mate... with a massive dose of inappropriate sense of humour that had me sniggering from the get-go.

I'k not going in to detail just read the book honestly information technology's fucking vivid and I lost count of the amount of times I cried laughing.

I desire Avery to have his book!!!
I desire more than of Meryn!!!
I too want more than of King and law!!! ...

Who am I kidding.. I want them all. Any chance you'd exist willing to bring out a book a week? I need more, I'm having withdrawals already :(!!
