Businesswoman Sabrina Kendricks was swept off her feet by millionaire Argentinean Javier D'Alessandro...and on their third date he asked her to marry him!
But this was no whirlwind romance--Javier needed a British wife to adopt his orphaned niece. Sabrina knew it was only a convenient arrangement--even though the passion that burned in Javier's eyes suggested they could have so much more....

5 Klovers - Courtesy of CK2S Kwips & Kritiques,
By Jennifer Ray (Nashville, TN United States) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Last Wolf Watching (Silhouette Nocturne) (Mass Market Paperback)
All of his life, Brody Carter has born the scars of his youth, both external and internal. He has never met the woman who can look past his damaged face to the man beneath. Or so he believes.
When Michaela Doucet lands smack dab in the middle of his lonely life, she promptly shakes up everything he thought he knew about the world and himself. Still, he cannot quite let himself trust that Michaela truly wants him. Women have always used him for something or other. Why should Michaela be any different? Determined to stay away from the intoxicating little witch, Brody has a moment of temporary insanity when he volunteers as her bodyguard, 24/7, until the danger threatening not only the Blood Runners and the Silvercrest pack, but now the Doucet siblings as well has been neutralized. Close proximity soon proves too much for him to bear as the temptation of the woman he comes to suspect is his mate grows with each day. But Shadow Peak is steeped even further in violence and murder as the serial killer who has left trail of dead human women in his wake becomes more erratic, alongside the growing danger posed by one evil Elder and his mions. Can Brody and the Bloodrunners defeat their enemies before all is lost forever? The BLOOD RUNNERS trilogy is Rhyannon Byrd's first series with Silhouette Nocturne, and let me tell you - it knocked my socks off! This trio of books delivers three separate romances with the backdrop of one major plot that arcs throughout the books, beginning in LAST WOLF STANDING, continuing with LAST WOLF HUNTING and culminating with LAST WOLF WATCHING. While LAST WOLF WATCHING begins in the thick of action, the excitement grows with each chapter, until it reaches a fever pitch with some very unexpected events and a couple of plot twists that are guaranteed to keep readers on the edge of their seats. I am surprised I have any fingernails left after reading this nail-biter! But even with all of the suspense, Ms. Byrd never once lets us forget that this is Brody and Michaela's story. Their romance is definitely in the forefront throughout this book as this couple plays a very important role in the salvation of their friends, family, and the residents of Shadow Peak. My heart absolutely ached for Brody's pain, but his strength and manliness were never in doubt. No, he acted as many men might in real life, holding his fears and pain deep inside. It never even occurs to this mighty Blood Runner that sharing his past might help him overcome it, or that the act of sharing it would not turn those he cares for away from him in disgust. Michaela is just the woman who can make him see otherwise. Not only does she eventually succeed in convincing him to share his feelings with her, but she also manages to convince him that things are perhaps not as they have always seemed to him. That revelation, combined with her love, heals him more surely than anything else could, and clears the way for their happy ending. Those of you worried about the fact that LAST WOLF WATCHING is the last story in a trilogy needn't fret. I understand that Rhyannon Byrd has ideas for a series of books that will be connected to the BLOOD RUNNERS tales and will star some of the most intriguing supporting characters from these books. I, for oen, will be waiting with bated breath for those stories!

superb paranormal romantic suspense,
This review is from: Last Wolf Watching (Silhouette Nocturne) (Mass Market Paperback)
In Bayou country paranormal boutique owner Michaela Doucet cannot stand her lack of privacy ever since a rogue werewolf attacked her friend Torrance; she understands why half human-half Lycan Bloodrunner Brody Carter is assigned to protect her and her brother Max. However, even more frustrating is her attraction to the scarred acrimonious Brody as he refuses to allow her to even befriend him let alone love him.
Brody wants the beautiful Cajun like nothing he ever desired before. However, he will not even hint at his need because someone as lovely as Michaela would not be seen dead with an oaf like him. Besides if he is not diligent she literally could be dead. The third Bayou paranormal romantic suspense Bloodlines thriller (see LAST WOLF STANDING and LAST WOLF HUNTING is a fast-paced tale that like its predecessors enables readers to believe in the fantasy elements especially the otherworldly species. The story line is action-packed from the onset but driven by the lead couple as she wants him and he reciprocates but ignores his and her desires until she takes the half wolf in hand. Sub-genre readers will enjoy Rhyannon Byrd's Bayou Bloodlines thriller that stands alone, but definitely is enhanced by the previous tales as characters from those novels return. Harriet Klausner

Disapointing, about average for the genre,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Last Wolf Watching (Silhouette Nocturne) (Mass Market Paperback)
The characters are well written but the principals spend way too many pages dithering like J. Alfred Proofrock ("shall I eat a peach, do I dare to eat a pear") and soloquizing like Hamlet. There are a couple trivial plot elements in the first 200 pages but the plot remains weak. The arch villain's death is not altogether convening. Overall not horrid but not satisfying.
