Wolf Tales is definitely one of my new favorites

This book is amazing. Great detail and made me feel like I was right there with the characters. Will definitely read more by this author.

wolf tales

I think to this day that the first Wolf Tales will always be my favorite. When Xandi slides off the road and is sure she will die, she is rescued by an unknown saviour. She wakens in his arms in one of the hottest love scenes I have ever read in my life. I really thought the book would spontaneously combust on me. When she discovers Stephen's true personage she doesn't turn her back on him but begins the road to the true love of her life. We also meet Antoine and Keisha as well as he helps her heal from the brutality of man. Like i said it's my favorite of the series,but then I have yet to read wolf tales VII. I can't wait.

All the Essential Ingredients of good Erotica.... Plus!

I'm not going to bother with a synopsis of this book, as this has been done. This book worked for me. Yes, there are sexual scenarios that might be challenging to those who prefer more traditional erotica, as some of the reviews point out. This book has: polyamory, group sex, m/m, f/f, m/f, mmf... pretty much every combo you can think of, and there is sex between partners when one or both is in shifted form (wolf). To me, all of the above is neither a selling point for this book, nor a deterrent. When I read erotica, I want great sex scenes in the context of: creative plot (this book definitely has that!), likable characters (definitely likable!), and most of all, sex in a loving context. In this book, love does not come off as a plot device. It pervades everything each character does and thinks, whether sexual or not. Sex, in this book (though frequent) is only one way that each character shows their love for the others. I like that. I also want to note that I like seeing characters who are smart and open-minded, who don't spend half the book doubting who they are, what they want, etc... I really Liked these characters! In summary, I would strongly recommend this series of books to those who are very open minded, want strong likable characters and an interesting plot-line, as well as hot sex scenes in loving context.

Awesome

I loved this book from the beginning all they way to the end. I didn't want it to end. The first two charectors you meet, it just grabs you. I know the scene with Stefan and Anton, might be disturbing to some but understanding the story, you knew it would happen. I just couldn't put it down. I thought the whole story was beautifully done and would buy more of Kate Douglas's books.

Wolf Tales Rocks!!!!

I'm relatively new to the erotic romance scene, but let me tell you that this book is awesome! I was hooked from the first chapter! You could really feel everything that the character felt, saw, smelled, and oh yes, tasted. This book not only had a lot of hot sex scenes, but being someone who doesn't find two men together hot(actually it's gross), after reading this book, I think I've changed my mind. The threesomes and foursomes were totally a turn on, and so where all the other sex scenes. The plot was sooo good, I wish there was an x-rated movie made from it. As long as the budget was big. I'd even want to star in it! Since reading it, I have passed it along to my friends, and they are hooked too. Also after reading this book, I've never had any interest in Montana, but now I want to move there! Kate did so well describing how beautiful it was, now I at least have to visit it. Anyway, if you're looking for something different in the way of an erotic romance, this book has it all!!!

Atomic Hot!

Sliding off the road in the middle of a snow storm, Alexandria "Xandi" Olanet's plan to get her life in order is not going well. After catching her fiance with another woman, Xandi took some time off to find herself. Now Xandi simply needs to find her way back to the highway... uphill in a blizzard! Having blacked out before finding help, Xandi finally wakes to find herself unexpectedly bathed in warmth. The mind blowing sex with an unknown man that follows is overwhelming. It is unlike anything Xandi has ever experienced! Xandi's new lover and savior is Stefan Aragat, the famous magician. He is also a werewolf trapped between forms as part man and part wolf. Unable to fully become a human, Stefan believes he is cursed by his own hubris and has given up hope. This powerful new connection with Xandi encourages him to seek forgiveness from his former master. He hopes that werewolf wizard Anton Chavel can reverse the curse. Although Stefan wants Xandi's company, he is unsure how to explain the attraction he shares with his mentor. His worst fears are realized at their first meeting when Xandi sees him being dominated by Anton. Stefan fears he has lost her, but their bond proves strong enough to handle this new dimension. Xandi's love helps Stefan see that hope is not lost. Maybe there really is no curse. Maybe there is a place for Anton in both their lives. Maybe this is a new beginning for all of them. Ms. Douglas' Wolf Tales, a collection of four connected stories, is a unique and intense werewolf story that sends the reader into a sensual world. I especially liked the way Ms. Douglas' werewolves are unique from werewolves of myth. The early scenes with Xandi and Stefan are hot enough to cause a heat wave in a blizzard. Xandi is a strong woman who has finally found where she belongs. Stefan is a flawed man discovering redemption through the strength of their bond. Anton's search for a mate and family is heart wrenching. Ms. Douglas deftly handles controversial subjects such as sex in animal form, homosexuality, dominance, and partner sharing. This isn't your typical romance, and the strong characters and story line made it all work. Without giving too much away, the introduction of a fourth character late in the story was key in my accepting the Chanku's nontraditional social structure. Wolf Tales is an atomic hot erotic romance with real emotional depth. Cheryl Reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed
