About the Taming the Pack Boxed Set:Sometimes a wolf is all you need.
What do you get when you mix Alphas and sheriffs and park rangers? Three sexy tales of wolf shifter romance from the talented Wendy Sparrow sure to keep you up past your bedtime! With one click, immerse yourself in a rich world of danger, intrigue, a little humor, and more than a little heat.
Past My Defenses
After a feline danderbomb takes Vanessa down, she wakes up naked in a cage staring at a hot park ranger who has no idea what he’d trapped. Dane Hansen had hoped to tame the silver wolf in his kennel, but all bets are off with the deliciously sweet Vanessa on two legs. They’re hot as a forest fire even before they scent-match. Meanwhile, Lycans are being poached, and Vanessa has been targeted. Dane will have to keep her close to protect her, but with Vanessa in heat and mad to mate, who will protect him?
This Weakness for You
Jordan Hill is his pack’s Alpha wolf, and after his last breakup, he’s opting to be the lone wolf, too. But when his rival’s little sister—a human—comes to his door, what should be a tasty snack turns out to be something more than Jordan could ever imagine. Christa Hansen is simply looking for a place to stay. Yet the dark shifter smells irresistibly like forever. But getting involved with the wolf who tried to kill her brother—twice—is lunacy. Falling for her family’s enemy won’t just be her downfall…it will be his, too.
Crazy Over You
Waking up with a naked woman holding a knife at his throat is just about the last thing Sheriff Travis Flynn expected. And the brother she’s looking for? A murderer. And dead. Probably. But the real shock comes when she insists she’s not a Lycan. Once LeAnn Wilcox finds her brother, she’ll get out of the pack’s territory and go back to her regular, nonfurry life. But LeAnn’s life is at stake if she won’t claim her place in the pack, especially once Travis’s control over the pack is challenged and her brother’s fate is questioned.

My Thoughts:
If you’re looking for a book set where you get your money’s worth,
you can’t go wrong here. It has a mix of
everything. You will get hooked on the
mystery and suspense that the author weaves amongst scenes that will have you
laughing out loud (that part is hard when you are eating lunch with
co-workers). This author does a great
job of creating tension between her main characters.
This series starts off with a great book titled Past My Defenses. Dane Hansen is getting frustrated with a
recent turn of events. Vanessa was
caught nekkid. Didn’t take me long
before this author had me laughing out loud - at times it was hard not to let
out a belly laugh. One thing I found
very interesting was how accepting Dane was by his discovery since most of us
would probably be freaking out. It came
with the perfect ending. What a great
way to start this trilogy.
By having these books in a set it makes it very easy to decide
where you are going to stop before you pick the book up again. If you’ve ever watched the old comedy movies,
you’ll understand what a running gag is.
In this case it’s a character and his name is Lucifer – you’ll see why
he’s earned that name. He’s a good
reason to turn the page just to see where he’ll turn up. If you’ve never read this author before, here
are three good reasons to. Ms. Sparrow’s
sense of humor helped me through what would have otherwise been a tough day and
I have to thank her for lifting my spirits.
It’s a series that I will happily read again and look forward to reading
more of her work.
Excerpt:
This Weakness for You
“And then there’s this…” He took a step back and shifted. One minute, he was a man—the next, a large black wolf beside a pile of clothes.
Christa’s eyes widened and she stared. “Oh, well…” Then, she wrinkled up her nose and tilted her head. “You know, I’d actually considered that, but there’s no way to ask that without sounding insane.”
The black wolf stared. Jordan’s primal intelligence had been expecting panic and shock. This amused acceptance was…confusing.
His mate scooted farther back in the bed with a yawn. “So, now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, can you stay?”
He didn’t move.
His female leaned forward and whistled while patting the bed.
There was a brief fight between his stubborn human intelligence and the instinctual desire to be with his female. Also…she’d just whistled. His pride couldn’t fight the altered primal mind-set. Mine. Mate. Mine. The black wolf jumped on the bed and lay down beside her.
“See, only you were making it complicated,” she said on another yawn before she leaned down and grabbed a blanket at the foot of the bed, which she pulled over them. “I hog the blankets, so you’ll need to steal them back if you want them.”
Giveaway:
After a childhood spent wandering as a military brat, Wendy Sparrow finally found her home in Washington State. She spends her days trying to convince her two kids she actually knows how to properly parent and her nights showing her husband all the cool things romance authors know. She’s active in the OCD and autism communities and writes on her blog to support awareness in both. With her whole heart, Wendy believes in happily-ever-afters and that everyone deserves one. If she's not writing or wrangling kids, she's on Twitter, @WendySparrow, where she'll chat with anyone about anything.
I love shifter romances & this set sounds like the perfect read for a rainy day...or night. Wendy Sparrow is a new author to me, but reading this blurb she won't be for long! Thanks for sharing a lovely review!
