The Talon Pack continues with an outcast
witch and a wolf who can see past the darkness.
As Heir to the Talon Pack, Ryder
Brentwood carries the responsibility of not only protecting his Pack, but
ensuring its future. Only no one knows that as he does this, he must also
shield his people from their past. When a witch with no ties bursts into his
life, he must decide if he can overcome the depravity of his secrets and trust
the one person who could break the fragile hold on his control.
Grieving over the loss of her twin and
on the run from the unknown, Leah Helm knows she is far more alone than she
thought possible. Her coven shunned her before she was born and the wolves she
sought protection with are in a war of their own. When a wolf with a whisper of
secrets is forced to work with her in order to protect their people, she finds
she might not be so alone after all.
The world knows more than they ever have
before about those shrouded in darkness, while Ryder and Leah are thrust into
the center of a conflict they never should have been part of to begin with. On
their journey they must not only fight those against them, but the burning
temptation that is flaring between them. Fate might have paved their path, but
that doesn’t mean they have to follow.

Mated in Mist is out in the world! What
a long strange journey these worlds have taken me. I first started my writing
career with the Redwood Pack series back in 2010. An Alpha's Path (Redwood Pack
Book 1) released in Dec of 2011 and since then I've released 8 full books and 6
novellas in the series. And because I wanted to see what happened when I looked
at different wolves, a different Pack in the world, I started the Talon Pack
series.
Wicked Wolf started it all as a bridge
between the Redwood Pack and Talon Pack worlds.
Tattered Loyalties was the book that
changed the world I created irrevocably.
An Alpha's Choice was the book that
broke me because of who the characters were.
Mated in Mist is the book that healed me...even
if it broke me a little bit as well.
The journey the Brentwoods are taking
within the Talon Pack has only just begun. There are some heavy hitters coming
as well as a few surprises.
I cannot wait for you to read Mated in
Mist. I hope you love it as much as I loved writing it.
The story of the Talon Pack continues in this latest release
by Carrie Ann Ryan. This time the Heir
to the Pack, Ryder, meets his mate. Lean
stumbles to the Talon’s while being chased by humans. Her twin brother dies in the skirmish. Leah has spent her life always on guard and
she is not willing to let that down so easy, even for a s3xy wolf.
Ryder has his own secrets, though. He feels the mate pull with Leah but does not
feel worthy to have a mate. He and his
siblings escaped the tyranny of their father and uncles, but the emotional
scars still run deep. I liked that Ryder
was willing to compromise with Leah.
They could be friends with benefits but he was honest in telling her
emotionally he could not bond with her.
Leah is an untrained water witch. She knows she has skills but needs to
practice to reach her full potential.
What she doesn’t expect is her bonding with the pack. She is willing to jump in and protect even
though she just met them all. Leah helps
in the continuing battle against the humans.
More secrets are revealed and the wolves get closer to figuring out who
may be trying to expose them.
Leah’s compassion is ultimately Ryder’s saving grace. Once they really talk things out, Ryder
realizes his special gift is not an affliction.
This opens the door for them to complete the mate bond. As always, it is great to see previous
couples pop up in the book. Still quite
a few siblings to get through before this series wraps. Wonderful paranormal read. Great author!
ARC received for an honest review!
Excerpt:
“Is he staring?” Leah asked.
Charlotte’s eyes danced and she looked
over Leah’s shoulder. “No, but he was earlier.”
So Ryder wasn’t looking at her, but he
had been. That sounded about right. He kept changing his damn mind. First he’d
pushed her away before he kissed her. Then he’d said he wouldn’t mate her, but
damn well claimed her in the Coven meeting. She still wasn’t sure what that had
meant or exactly what the others had thought, but it had meant something. She wasn’t Pack, but he’d
still said she was his. Or, at least, theirs. It wasn’t as if she wanted to
marry him and have his babies, but it would be nice if he would make his choice
and stick to it.
She’d told herself years ago she
wouldn’t have children and wouldn’t find a man to live her life with. She’d
always thought her twin would be able to do that despite the danger, but that
wasn’t for her. She hadn’t wanted her bloodline to continue with her, not with
all the pain she’d lived with for so long.
But letting her hands run along that
wolf’s body as they both panted with need wouldn’t be such a bad thing.
Her cheeks heated, and Charlotte raised
a brow at her.
“Interesting place your thoughts went, I
would think.” She smiled and her whole face brightened. The woman was
absolutely beautiful, though there was a sadness in her eyes that she couldn’t
quite hide. Leah knew what Bram saw in the woman, though he, like Ryder, did
his best not to stare for too long.
If Leah had planned to stay within the
den for any amount of time, she might have asked Charlotte what the story was
behind that, but she couldn’t. She didn’t know her future and what path she
would take. Therefore, making friends and promises wasn’t for her. It hadn’t
been the case for more years than she cared to count.
“Leah? Are you okay?”
New York Times
and USA Today Bestselling Author Carrie Ann Ryan never thought she’d be a
writer. Not really. No, she loved math and science and even went on to graduate
school in chemistry. Yes, she read as a kid and devoured teen fiction and Harry
Potter, but it wasn’t until someone handed her a romance book in her late teens
that she realized that there was something out there just for her. When another
author suggested she use the voices in her head for good and not evil, The
Redwood Pack and all her other stories were born.
Carrie Ann is a
bestselling author of over twenty novels and novellas and has so much more on
her mind (and on her spreadsheets *grins*) that she isn’t planning on giving up
her dream anytime soon.
