Fur for All - By Christine Warren

Okay this is book five in the Fixed series and I skipped it because I wasn't very interested in the characters. I have return though to complete the series set! Oh and the cover is super freaky but I just ignored it...

I'll admit Christine Warren's fixed series became a little tedious when it seemed to be the same story in every book. Guy meets girl, guy has awesome sex with girl, girl is like whoa that was awesome sex, finds out guy is not human, possible conflict here and they fall in love the end. Being an avid fan of romance novels with said story lines it's how the story is played out that counts! Warren make minute changes but I felt like it was the same story over and over. That being said there are now extended novels of these shorter stories and I would be interested to see if that is where Warren expands her story a little more...

Anyway, Rafael is a Felix which is some kind of Alpha of the cats being a werejaguar. Tess is a witch who has a meddling granddaddy. Brought together by the whim of the Witch's Council, Tess delivers a message to Rafael who all but sweeps her into sexual abandon in an alleyway or was it the street? They have an interesting dynamic as Rafe is used to getting his way (what Alpha isn't?) and Tess is not someone who appreciates being railroaded. They get to the nitty gritty and have it but something weird is going on with the Witch's Council. It's not the most gripping plot but for all that the story line was lacking I would like to note that the sex scenes were very imaginative and held ample amount of passionate zing. They were super hot and I definitely hope that they were kept in the longer versions! While it isn't the most amazing shifter romance I've read but it's solid and I will be giving the extended novels a look in the future because I really want to read Ava's story!

3/5

Fighting Faer - By Christine Warren

Fixed No. 4


These short stories don't contain a lot of story line and I found the leading lady Corinne super bitchy also species-ist. Corinne does not like the "Others" and she makes that very clear. She's polite towards them but makes mental comments like "did I just have sex with a monster?!" The main man Luc, or Lucifer, is the Fae head of security for the faerie queen which in all honesty is not important at all. These two characters truly need no background in order to meet each other, have sex and still have the same problems they do with back story. The Queen is a bitch and Luc convince Corinne to be a little more open minded with sex. Oh and the plot is that they are looking for some idiot nephew of the Queen, trying to keep magic doors from opening and there is a twist. It's a twee supernatural romance so of course since Luc is a Fae, not a werewolf and can't have a mate, Warren gives Fae "heartmates." I definitely rolled my eyes at that whole "Fate made us for one another" bollocks. They beat all the obstacles in their way, come to an understanding that while they don't know each other, the sex is great and they are fated. TA DA! The End.

It's short, quick but if you are wanting a little more substance with your sexy romance this is definitely not for you. 3 stars because it's not horrible it's just the same old, same old.

Fur Play - By Christine Warren

Fixed No. 6

** spoiler alert ** Short and sweet. Logan Hunter is chomping at the bit because he's an alpha wolf that is not the leader of his pack, his best friend Graham is. An alpha has died in the White Paw pack and a female has taken the alpha role. Graham sends Logan to check whether this female is able to run the pack.

Honor Tate inherits the White Paw pack when her father dies of cancer and managed to keep it from the pack. This was a little far fetched because with their fancy sense of smell shouldn't any werewolf anywhere near Honor's father smell the disease?! Regardless, Honor gets the pack which the pack doesn't like and so she gets challenged and has to beat three idiot males up. Heaven forbid that a woman should be alpha of a pack! Pushing the traditional, it's what werewolves do line Logan arrives from the Silver Back pack to find that Honor is one hot chick (fancy that) and that what he really wants to do is get in her pants. They fight and romp, fight and romp, realize they're mates and get right back into the fighting and having sex. It's a quick read with not much in the way of story line. Honor and Logan are both stubborn as hell and the sex scenes are fiery. In the end they both get what they want because Honor never wanted to run the pack anyway *frustrated sigh*. It would have been nice if she did decide to stay Alpha but whatever. Quick read, nothing fancy, pick it up if your wanting a brief tryst with a novel.
