Publisher's summary

Lacey Barton can't deny her crazy attraction to Alex Trevino, but that doesn't mean she has time for the gorgeous SWAT officer. She's hell-bent on discovering who's behind the brutal dogfights sending countless mauled animals to her veterinarian office. The trail leads Lacey to a ring of vicious drug dealers, and suddenly she's in way over her head - right smack in the middle of a SWAT stakeout.

With Lacey in danger, Alex's wolf side is unleashed. But when she witnesses Alex shift, she's even more terrified. Now it's up to Alex to crack the case - and earn back Lacey's trust and, ultimately, her heart.

Critic reviews

"A grand mix of romance and suspense with extra appeal for dog lovers and fans of paranormal themes." ( Booklist)

this is one of the best in series!

I love all the SWAT men in this series... And they are good men... great even. The stories are fun! Action packed, full on romance, steamy smexy scenes, good back stories for characters, good drama/action and a full of fun story line. I enjo6y these stories. But they aren't in depth kristen ashley stories. Lol... But really good just the same. the narrator Abby Craden did amazing! No frog voice like some reviewer said. She was perfect! And perfect for this series. give it a try, it's totally worth it! if you like action/drama/mystery/some comedy/ sexy sexy time/ suspense and a HEA... this is perfect for you!!

Good Title as is

Alex watched many of his packmates and swat team members find their One. With his lack of control over his wolf, he doubts he'll ever find her. That is until he meets the fill in Vet. Lacy has all her time tied up in work, her college-age sister and her volunteer work. Doesn't stop her from looking.

Eventually, their connection to some cases involving dog fights, drugs, and missing girls brings them together enough that she can't resist. She doesn't know his secret. Will she be able to accept him? The subject takes a back seat when her sister is missing. How high will the cost be to get her back? If he can.

The team remains committed to the pack regardless of orders from the outside. The comradery is true and fun to watch. Another winner from Ms. Tyler.

Lots of action

Good serious with lots of action. Sometimes it can get kinda corny, but otherwise it's good. The narrator is ok, not great just ok.

Talk about a hot read!

4.5*s

I have to say, I love his story. I also love me some, Lacey! Girlfriend is a serious bad mamajama when she needs to be. Alex is the right fit for her, too. Hot SWAT officer and the hot little veterinarian. It's so obvious, yet they had a hard time getting to that point. Silly people.

I loved the balance of craziness, and action. The SWAT team's involvement in an illegal dog fighting ring, sided with an illegal drug dealing scheme and kidnapping ring.... talk about mind blowing craziness.

Alex and his team are on a mission alongside he narcotics team to take a new drug called fireball, off the streets. Lacey is a local vet who is on call 24/7 in the case she is needed to see to an injured dog. Her friend Wendy who is an officer on this team of animal crusaders gets her into a few sticky situations, which I turn gives Lacey plenty of room to get herself into all kinds of trouble.

Thankfully, Alex and his team are there to back her up. Not only will they do all they can to help her in a time of need, but Alex will make sure she is safe and out of harms way, by any means necessary.

Really good series

This author was new to me but I have found the stories of each book well written with very interesting characters. Never realized I would enjoy books about werewolves as much as I have but I'm downloading the next book.

Revenge of the dog!

Who knew American werewolves in Dallas could be so engaging? This installment rewarded repeated listening. The relationships between all the characters and the romance between the leads meshed well. This is not Shakespeare but it does inspire a wider view of love and life. Albino fever aside!

I’ve been enjoying these books but...

The female love interest is supposed to be a veterinarian who is very involved in dog abuse cases. Midway through the book the couple enjoys a lovely dinner of veal cutlets. You don’t have to be a vet to know that veal is just animal abuse on a plate. I was left half way through the book with a super unconvincing character who also never seemed to go to work, was unreasonably judgey about that “monster” werewolf boyfriend and was overall not a great character or person. I felt sorry for the werewolf. Seems like of all the reactions of the girls in these books the vet would handle it better then most, but alas, she was the biggest disappointment of them all.

I’ve been enjoying these books and I guess I’ll go on to the next one but I’ve been pretty disappointed by the reactions of the women. How many times does a guy have to save you and your sister before you let that werewolf thing go?

Great listen

I love this series. If you haven’t read the other books then you really should. You can start here but you will know and appreciate so much more. I will say Coopers book was still my favorite.
Back onto talking about this book. I will say that I wanted to smack Lacey. First time in this series that I kind of hated one of the characters. But that’s what happens since not everyone is the same and that means books need to be different as well. So with that being said I wanted to punch Lacey. But all and all good book and great series and I am definitely continuing onto the next book!!

Entertaining

The story isn’t bad. I probably would’ve rated it higher, but I couldn’t get past the narration. I listened to all the books in the series up until this one, but I finally couldn’t take the narrator’s over-articulation anymore and stopped. If you can tolerate irritating narration, it’s good.
