Book Description

Publication Date: August 5, 2008

Looking for a world where danger lurks around every corner, where Mates mean three werewolves taking on the world together, and where the men love their girls as much as they do each other? Look no farther than the Mates anthology. Julia Talbot presents Fur and Phobias, a story about a sweet girl named Abby with a terrible fear of dogs. Aaron thinks he might just be the one to cure her, but he and his lover, Lee, have a secret that may send Abby running for the hills. Can they work together to ease Abby's fears? In Sean Michael's Running with the Wolf, a roving pack of werewolves have made terrible trouble for artist Vicki, who's been bitten and has no idea what to do about it. Swan and Dibs know what to do, though, and the two boys are determined to help Vicki, whether she wants it or not. Can they show her what it's like to run with the wolf? Finally, BA Tortuga presents For Life, Jamie and Brett both know something terrible is about to happen to Melody, and they come back into her life after years spent apart, turning her carefully ordered world upside down. Someone is determined to make them pay for a mistake from the past, but these three are older and wiser now. Can they find a way to stay together?

5.0 out of 5 stars Mates, July 2, 2008

"Fur and Phobia" by Julia Talbot

Abby has a problem. She sees a dog and she has a panic attack, which is really inconvenient when her job requires that she spend time in people's yards. When her therapist recommends that she see dog trainers Aaron and Lee, it changes Abby's life.

"Fur and Phobia" is a funny and sweet story, all the while steaming you up! Julia Talbot did a great job with characters who will charm you and burn you up as they come together.

"Running with the Wolf" by Sean Michael

Dibs and Swan are their own little pack, which suits them just fine. But when they scent a strange wolf in their territory, they go investigate and discover Vicki, who has no clue what she is. Now, they just need to convince her that were-wolves are real and she is theirs.

"Running with the Wolf" is an off-beat story with unique characters. Dibs is the proverbial "wild child" who is more wolf, in his innocence and thinking, than man. Swan and Vicki combined with Dibs are a steamy combination that will heat you up!

"For Life" by BA Tortuga

When they ran away, Melody, Jamie, and Brett went their separate ways. But as danger begins to stalk Melody, Jamie and Brett come back into her life to protect her, but will they all survive?

"For Life" is an undeniably hot story about childhood friends who have always been something more with enough action and suspense to keep the characters jumping!

Mates is a great collection of m/m/f ménage stories by all time favorites Julia Talbot, Sean Michael, and BA Tortuga. Each story brings a different take on the werewolf myth and the possibilities on romance between three people. From past loves to new loves, they all have plenty of sizzle! Mates is a fun read for a lazy afternoon.

2.0 out of 5 stars Could have been better!, August 6, 2008

This review is from: Mates (Paperback)

I was greatly disappointed in this book! Out of the three stories only 1 was even worth reading. Just because they are short stories does not mean that they are not worth the effort to make them a complete and interesting story!!! Because of this book, I have decided to not buy any of these authors books, because of how the stories were written in this one.
