review 1: This particular installment in the series saw a change in the dynamics because there was an introduction to a host of delicious nomad biker shifters that form their own pack. They are a close brotherhood of shifters who were abandoned or kicked out of their former packs and families because they are gay.The book opens with the same bar scene from Carson and Jared's story where Carson was dancing with Dagus. In this instance, it is from Brad's perspective when his gang rolls into town and hits the bar where his nose tells him that his mate is somewhere in the bar. Brad is floored to discover that he has a mate since his dad told him that mates could not be same-sex, but he's delightfully surprised when he realizes that the handsome blind human is his. And best of all, h... moreis human knows about shifters.Dagus is tired of being coddled even though it is all good intentioned because of his kidnapping experience. His brother is mated and for the first time he has a chance to live independently. Unlike other humans, he is eager when he finds out the big biker wants to know him and he is open to exploring a relationship with Brad. There is the problem that Brad isnt' a wolf (the wolves are up in arms to Declan about letting other types of shifters into their territory) and he's part of a bike gang that only plans to stay in the area a few days.Very enjoyable plot with characters who know what they want and go for it! The time spent outside the bedroom on dates and outings was a nice touch particularly between two characters who work well together and in the story. I love the pairings that Charlie Richards introduces with each new book.Fun read that brought a smile to my face!
review 2: A story I’ll admit to having waited for, this book focuses on Dagus, a blind writer, and Brad, a member of a biker gang. The fact that the entire gang consists of gay shifters is a fun idea, and them ‘invading’ Stone Ridge’s pack territory has all kinds of interesting consequences. I really hope we haven’t seen the last of them!Dagus may be blind, but he is proud and wants nothing more than to live an independent life. Ever since his brother Drake (from book #4) moved out, a friend of his moved in, but it is not what Dagus wants or needs. Not even the fact that he got kidnapped by the evil scientist can stop him from wanting his life back. The few insecurities he does have are no more serious than any seeing person’s. Running into his mate surprises him, but he takes it all in stride.Brad is a great character. A polar bear shifter, with the mostly easygoing temperament to match, he is ferocious when angered. And some of the local wolf pack’s members make him really angry. He is a very considerate mate for Dagus, sensitive to, but nor patronizing about, the fact that Dagus can’t see. The mate bond isn’t the only thing that attracts him, and I loved how he takes care to let Dagus know that.It was interesting to see the first traces of pack politics appear. There hasn’t been much of that in this series so far, but with quite a few members turning out to be gay, not to mention non-wolf shifters becoming more common, it was only a matter of time for the bigots, as present in the shifter world as anywhere else, to raise their ugly heads. Not a big deal yet, but I suspect this is a possible storyline we might see more of. If you like shifter stories with a variety of species, if experiencing the world the way a blind person does interests you, and if hot man-on-shifter action is your thing, you might like this story. less
