ACE (SAVAGE RAPTORS MC 6) by Harley Wylde
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-3822
“This is a solid, enjoyable read… great chemistry right from the start, and it builds slowly but steadily in a way that feels believable. The emotional moments land well, and the character growth is satisfying to follow. Harley’s writing never fails; it’s always a pleasure to read, and she continues to develop her world and characters with such consistency and heart.”
— 5 Stars from Alibas, Barnes & Noble Review
” I enjoy this author very much and recommend reading this series from the beginning, they are all great books.”
— 5 Stars from Brenda, Kobo Review
“I was struck by the way it was written and liked it a lot. It was much deeper and read really well.”
— 5 Stars from Lizzie, Amazon (UK) Review
“Ace & Marci is a slow burn romance that is packed with suspense. There’s some mention of the FMCs and MMCs from the earlier books in the series, but can still be read as a standalone. HEA guaranteed.”
— 5 Stars from Ashley, Amazon Review
“Ace is the latest and greatest from Harley Wylde! This book delivers danger, devotion, and a love that feels both reckless and inevitable. Ace is a standout MC hero—loyal to his club, his brothers, and unwaveringly to the woman he wants. Marci’s character is so well written bringing her fear and resistance shaped by real trauma to the front for readers. The age-gap heightens the intensity and gives the story the zing we crave! The action and world building are top notch!”
— 5 Stars from Laura C, Amazon Review
“I don’t know if I’ve come across a better man for a traumatized woman than I have as Ace. Ace never pushed her but watched for her tells and they grew and changed together. This might be one my favorite Harley books to date! I can’t wait to get more of the Savage Raptors.”
— 5 Stars from Nina Vee, Amazon Review
“A story well worth the read. This suspenseful and dramatic story will completely draw you in and make you want to see Marci safe with a future of freedom ahead of her….a future that includes Ace.”
— 5 Stars from Mouse, Amazon Review
“Ace knew when he met her that she was in trouble, and then he was willing to do whatever it took to make her safe again. This is a fast moving read that you’ll need Kleenex for to get through, but will make you fall in love with this series all over again!”
— 5 Stars from Julianna, Amazon Review
“This book can be read all by its lonesome but if you are a lover of MC series then start from book 1 and go from there. This one definitely didn’t disappoint the steamy scenes with the danger and suspense. Ace & Marci is a slow burn romance that is packed with suspense. I really was super into this book.”
— 5 Stars from Andrea, Amazon Review
“Ace is such a sweetheart! Marci is on the run. Together they are amazing! I loved this book!”
— 5 Stars from Leslie S., Amazon Review
“…action, drama and a HEA guaranteed. A must read for sure.”
— 5 Stars from Nadine B., Amazon Review
“Deeply emotional, heart- clutching, ugly crying wild roller coaster ride to go on. Ace and Marci’s journey wasn’t easy or paved in gold. They definitely had hurdles to overcome but in the end they proved love, loyalty and family conquers all. I enjoyed going on this captivating adventure with them.”

COLE FOR CHRISTMAS by Treva Harte
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-3826
“Cole is hopeful for a polyamorous relationship involving both Jeff and Sarah, believing they would be a perfect fit. Author Treva Harte expertly navigates the evolving relationship dynamic between the three main characters, culminating in a deeply gratifying resolution.”
— 5 Stars from J.G. Schreck, Amazon Review
“I totally want a Cole for Christmas and am really happy that both Sarah and Jeff have him. I loved the connection between these three and I was happily surprised by how Jeff was honest with Sarah and explained why he treated her the way he had. The surprise Sarah seemed to feel about these two men finding her beautiful was a little offsetting but also understandable. I definitely recommend this book to everyone who loves mmf stories with happy endings and lots of love.”
— 5 Stars from Yvonne M, Amazon Review
“Treva Harte creates a ménage with BDSM elements, friends to lovers, enemies to lovers, and addictively passionate scenes that are emotionally charged! I would love to revisit them and see where their relationship goes: high heat and intriguing potential for the future! 5 
for the steamy scenes!”

THE DHAMPIR by Angela Knight
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-1327
“I really liked this book and the characters were awesome.”
— 4 Stars from UnrulyReadr, Amazon Review
“This short story is dual POV, well written and edited, and a fast paced, steamy, contemporary fantasy romantic erotica between Genevieve, the female dhampir lead, and Hunter, the male vampire lead. I enjoyed Genevieve’s acceptance of the need for a career pivot. I enjoyed Hunter’s patience prior to the story commencement. I enjoyed the steamy intimate scenes.”

RANCOR (KISS OF DEATH MC 10) by Marteeka Karland
https://www.changelingpress.com/-b-3828

— 5 Stars from A.Fernandez, Amazon Review
“It’s an emotional, engaging story that pulled me in right away and kept me flipping pages until the very end. Rancor and Cora each have very real problems of their own.

“This is my first time reading a story like this and I loved it.”
— 5 Stars from Kenneth, Amazon Review
“I enjoy broken people who find each other. Rancor and Cora’s chemistry are fire, it makes the story fun and captivating. They just work well together. I really enjoy the continuity of Marteeka’s books, although each can be read as a standalone they are connected just enough to enjoy the world they are written in.”
— 4 Stars from Anotherdayinparadise, Amazon Review
“I enjoyed getting to know Cora and Rancor. Two broken souls that are cautiously peaking out into the future. Two souls who have suffered and fight fear constantly. I loved the journey Ms. Karland took them on as the both blossomed amount friends who have become family. I thoroughly enjoyed this story and cannot wait to see where Ms. Karland will take us next.”
— 5 Stars from Titania, Amazon Review
“Cora and Rancor (aka Marcus) are wonderful together. Despite both having their issues, the chemistry is fire… they just work. The pacing of the novel is brisk, but that doesn’t make it any less enjoyable. The continued world-building and pop-ins from previous characters (which are always a treat) kept me reading until the very end, and I found myself wishing for more. Marteeka knows how to deliver a romance that truly satisfies.”
— 5 Stars from Alibas, Barnes & Noble Review

— 5 Stars from Diana Page, Amazon Review
“This book is a terrific read; it’s got danger, romance, great characters, and a dog who is a VERY GOOD BOY! Those alone would be more than enough reasons to keep turning the pages, but on top of that, the setting is really neat, and the main characters are doing good and trying to save a rare Spirit Bear. This book is great!”
— 5 Stars from Kate, Amazon Review
“I picked up the book because of the description, specifically the location: a small island off of British Columbia, and because the author herself is Canadian, but I enjoyed it because of the action and the implications to real-world issues. Along the way, the hero and the heroine fall into and out of danger, are swept up in a tide of passion, and struggle to survive against seemingly overwhelming odds.”
— 4 Stars from AngelaC, Amazon Review
