Happy Hump Day, Readers! Today I am starting the slide to the weekend by going on a road trip with the High House Canis rebel - Chief to recruit shifters for the coming war and to win over his mate! Enjoy and don't forget to add Blood Mate by Riley Storm to your shelves!
It was just supposed to be a fling...
Sydney Hart has a dark secret. Something in her past that has made it impossible for her to ever be a good mother. It was only supposed to be a fling, but now she’s pregnant. And the father? He’s not exactly parent material either.
When Lechiffre ‘Chief’ Canis, in the midst of a deadly shifter war, is confronted by the beautiful, fiery human woman from that night of passion … he is absolutely not expecting her to say she’s pregnant. With his baby.
But what he’s expecting even less is that Sydney is having doubts about raising a family. Or raising a family with him.
To a shifter, family is everything.
Desperate to show her who he truly is, as well as get his unborn child away from the civil war, Chief takes her on a cross country trip with dual purposes: He must recruit more shifters to the cause, and at the same time, maybe he can finally win her over.
But in both cases, there’s a ticking clock. When the time comes, he knows he’ll have to risk everything for family. But will everything be enough?
It was only supposed to be a fling, but now she’s pregnant but something in Sydney Hart’s past has made it impossible to be a good mother. Lechiffre ‘Chief’ Canis is in the midst of deadly shifter war and the last thing he’s expecting it to be told that the night of passion between him and the human woman is that she’s expecting his baby. But Sydney has doubts about raising a family with or without him and now Chief is desperate to show her who he really is, as well as get his unborn child away from the civil war. Too bad, nobody told his enemies to leave his mate alone.
This paranormal romance is sweet but very emotionally gripping and full of hair raising excitement that keeps readers cemented to the pages. The characters are strong and very convincing as they struggle with past emotional distress as well as the present emotional distress. Chief certainly wins hearts with attempts to convince Sydney that they can make things work while keeping her safe, although he does make the usual mistakes but from him they are kind of adorable.
The plot is a fast track road trip that should have been a ‘get to know one better’ time well spent but this trip has an excitingly dangerous edge to it as Chief’s enemies follow them with deadly intentions. The suspense builds throughout the story as the trip becomes a hike through the woods in order to reach a sanctuary that may not be really safe, which has readers biting their nails in hair raising anticipation and thrilling uncertainty.

Riley is one of those early-morning people you love to hate, because she swears she doesn't need caffeine, even though the coffee-maker is connected to her smartphone. She lives in a three-story townhouse by the good graces of a tabby-cat who rules the house, the couch, the table, well, basically everywhere. When she's not groveling for forgiveness for neglecting to pet her kitty enough, Riley is strapped in to her writing chair coming up with crazy worlds where she can make her own decisions of when feeding time is and how much coffee can be drank without her friends--of which she has three--holding yet another intervention that they threaten to post on the internet.
