In the sixth installment of the Westervelt Wolves, the sister of the royal Kane family is found. Angel is running from the horrid members of the New Orleans' pack when she stops at a bus stop and runs straight into her mate.

Parker has lived and worked at this truck stop for twenty years. He doesn't speak and choses to stay away from people. When another werewolf comes into the diner, Parker immediately realizes it is his mate. Parker wants nothing to do with Angel. He remembers from his childhood that male weres kill their mates and already he knows he never wants to hurt Angel no matter if he has mated with her or not.

Destiny wants the two together and when a spell nearly takes Angel's life, Parker has no choice but to take her back to the Island of their birth and get Angel the help she needs.

If you haven't read any of this series before start from the beginning. Although the author gives enough clues that you can enjoy each love story, you won't want to miss this series from the beginning.

Description:
Angel Kane has always known who her family was and why she was hidden away from them in New Orleans. Now on the run, the last thing she wants is anything that could potentially get in the way of the plan she’s made for herself. That is, until she walks into a truck stop in New Jersey and encounters Parker Liberty—the wolf fate has picked out to be her perfect mate.

Parker Liberty hasn’t uttered a word in almost forty years. Not since the horrible day he watched his father murder his mother on the island of Westervelt. He ignores his inner wolf and contents himself with expressing his inner emotions through his tattoos. But when a pair of witches almost kill Angel, he will return to Westervelt to save her.

Westervelt is under constant attack by Kendrick. It is questionable whether the Westervelt pack can even survive the week. Angel and Parker’s arrival will either turn the tide of the war or end them forever.

The Liquid Silver hit paranormal romance series, Westervelt Wolves, came to paperback earlier this year. I happened to find a used copy at a local bookstore and was excited because I had read and reviewed several of the others in the series as ebooks. The series features a pack of wolves that lived for centuries in quiet on an island outside of Maine. Some thirty years ago the pack leader offered his pack for experiments to a mad scientist. In an effort to convince his pack to cooperate, the alpha, has a witch put a spell on all of the mated wolf males to kill their female mates.

After the remaining members of his pack rebel, the alpha flees. Now thirty years later the war between the former alpha and the pack continues. In book one aside from learning the surrounding story and meeting the players, the author also introduces Tristan. Tristan is one of the Royal 6, the third son of the alpha that betrayed his pack. We meet Tristan while he is locked up in wolf form and meets in mate, Ashlee,  in a zoo of all places. Tristan must convince his mate, who doesn't know anything about werewolves, to break him out of his cell and get him back to the Island and his pack.

This is just the beginning of the story. The story continues as the pair are forced to fight for their lives and save the rest of their pack from the spell that nearly destroyed them thirty years ago.

While the first book answers a lot of questions for the first time readers of the series, I didn't learn anything new since I had read the subsequent books to the series, but it was nice to finally get to read the story that started the series. Very well written as a first series. It gives a good view of where the series is going, but also goes into detail about the hero and heroine and how they made it to where they were in the rest of the series.

Currently Her Wolf and Summer's Wolf (second in the series) are the only two available in paperback. The others in the series are available in ebook on Kindle and Liquid Silver Publishing. 

Description:
Ashlee Morrison has a secret obsession—with a dark and mysterious male. The only problem is that he’s a wolf and she’s becoming convinced that she’s insane. But Ashlee’s wolf is no ordinary canine; he is Tristan Kane, third son in the royal family of the Westervelt Wolf pack.

Trapped in his wolf form by his evil father’s men, Tristan has desperately sought a way out of predicament and is shocked to find that the sad but beautiful redhead who has come to the wolf cage can not only hear him, but awakens in him the knowledge that she is his mate, the other half of his soul.

Ashlee, unaware that she is half wolf-shifter, agrees to accompany Tristan back to his pack in Maine to seek answers to her past and understand her future. But as Tristan and Ashlee grow closer, familial betrayals will threaten to destroy the fragile love they have started to build.

With the odds stacked against them, Ashlee and Tristan will either embrace their love to save the Westervelt Wolves or be lost forever to despair.

This is the fourth book in the Westervelt Wolves series. The story continues with Aziel Kane. Az is the more at ease in his basement lab than he is at fighting the battles his father has been sending him and his brothers. He's been spending hours down in his lab trying to figure out how his father is turning humans into "made" wolves. So far all of the "made" wolves brought into his lab have died except for one.

Leah has no idea how she got into a wolf's body. One day she woke up in a cage, remembering nothing but her name. She knows she's woken up in the cage more than once. She remembers the man who approaches the cage.

When Az realizes that Leah is his mate, he is all the more dedicated to defeating his father and finding a way from releasing Leah from wolf form.

Well written shifter book that should be read in sequence with the other books in the series.

Description:
Wolf’s Magic is the story of Azriel Kane, fifth brother in the royal Westervelt wolf pack. Always different from his siblings, Azriel prefers to spend his time underground in a lab than out fighting battles to save the pack from destruction. In his own way, he feels he is contributing to the pack’s success. However, when fate plants his destined mate in a cage where he can’t ignore her, Az will be forced to face up the demons that have plagued him since childhood and be the shifter she needs him to be.

Leah St. James has no idea who she is or how she came to be trapped in a cage in Azriel’s lab. The only thing she is certain about is that she is not a wolf and that she wants out of her false wolf body as soon as possible. Counting on Az to save her from the same doomed fate as the other wolves Az is given to study, from the distance of her cage she can see Az for who he really is and not the false front he presents to the world.

But Kendrick Kane is not done with Westervelt and when he steps up his game to eliminate the Kanes from Westervelt, Az and Leah will need each other to discover the truth behind his evil plans, that is if Azriel can finally reveal the secret he has been keeping since he was a child.

With Leah’s help, can Azriel finally take his place in the pack hierarchy or will they fail and lose Westervelt forever?

[Excerpt]

In book 4 of the Westervelt Wolves it is Valentine's Day. Jana has been alone for 30 years as she has waited out the curse that plagued the island where her people, a group of wolf shifters, lived. As an unmated wolf she was saved the fate of those mated females around her and was able to escape. When she receives an unexpected Valentine card she doesn't know whether to run or assume that the card is a joke.

As one of the elite warriors of the Westervelt pack, Malcolm is sent to investigate a businessman who might be suppling money to the man who placed the curse on the Westervelt pack. While in New York City he finds the one woman he has waited his whole life for--his mate. Since he has had to disguise himself, Jana doesn't recognize him as a wolf or her mate. When he is able to take away what is masking his scent, he knows she will accept who he is and then can start their life together. First, though, they must stop the money flow so that the Westervelt pack can be safe.

This is the first book I've read in this series. I think to understand the general purpose of the series it would be best to read the books in order first, although it isn't really necessary to like this book. The characters are strong and work perfectly together. This isn't a hard core erotic novella. This is just a general mainstream paranormal romance, which is really part of it's appeal. The story of the wolves is well written and pulls you forward to the next part in the series.

Description:
Jana thought she was through with Westervelt. Fleeing for her life thirty years ago, she's hidden as a human ever since. But a strangely worded Valentine delivered to her desk at work has given her pause.

Malcolm never expected to find his mate working for a crooked company he was sent to investigate in New York City. But there she is. Now, on Valentine's Day, the two will battle their attraction for each other while taking down a conglomerate built for the sole purpose of destroying the Westervelt Wolves.

Will love win the day?
