Copper King (Takhini Shifters #1) by Vivian Arend

Blurb:

(Off Goodreads)

Originally published in the ALPHAS AFTER DARK box set.
~~~

Three things make billionaire Jim Halcyon’s to-do list: women, work…and more women. It’s a perfect agenda for a rich shifter who has no problem letting his inner grizzly out to play. From the bright lights of Vegas, to the sophisticated action of New York—he’s got the money and the power to do anything he wants.

Anything, except resist the lure of Lady Luck, an ancient copper coin he gambles yearly to possess. Jim is determined to regain control of the pretty penny, and damn if he’ll let any bit of eye candy distract him from his goal. Not even the mesmerizing woman in the middle of the casino floor with the shimmering hair and enormous green eyes.

With a life-changing move ahead of her, Lillie’s finagled a temporary layover en route to her future. She’s got five days to soak in new experiences, and while Vegas is too big and shiny and loud for her shy bear self, she’s eager to do this up right. It’s the last chance she’s got to let her hair down.

Until his challenge begins, Jim is more than willing to oblige Lillie’s wish for a final fling. Only Lady Luck has some twists of fate planned for them both…

My Review:

The first novella in the Takhini Shifters series is a charming and fun paranormal romance.  Lillie wants one last hurrah before she gives in to tradition. Jim is looking to regain control of pretty copper coin and he’s not going to let any bit of eye candy distract from his goal. However, Lady Luck has some twists of fate in store for them both…

This fast paced and smooth flowing plot keeps readers well entertained with some suspense, humor, charm, romance in Sin City.  The author brings the wonderful romance to life with well written scenes and details that capture the imagination some intriguing mystery to arouse the curiosity and funny dialogue that brings causes quite a few chuckles.  The strong and enchanting characters are easily related to and grab the reader’s attention from the very beginning.

The chemistry between Jim and Lillie is hot enough to singe the reader all on its own and the sex scenes are hot enough to burn the casino down, and the relationship comes to a complete surprise to these charming bears.  The reader can’t help but get caught up in the story as the couple set out to have a good time and Lilly touches the heart with her shy but courageous demeanor and the giant growly bear sets hearts to pounding.

The author has created a fascinating shifter world that intrigues and entertains with surprising twists and turns to keep the reader on their toes and this story takes things a little farther with fates funny outlook on life and Lady Luck’s surprising twists that brings this couple to their happily ever after. While a little on the short side,  I really enjoyed this charming shifter romance from beginning to end. I have not read any of the Takhini Wolves books and while this one is connected to that series, it is not necessary, however I am sure if you are like me you will find yourself doing so.

Takhini Shifters series:

The Takhini Shifters are novellas set in the Granite Lake and Takhini Wolves world. Some of the heroes and heroines you’ll meet will be new, some vaguely familiar from their appearances in previous books, but you don’t have to have read the earlier books to enjoy these stand-alone stories.

takes place before Takhini Wolves #1 Black Gold

About Vivian Arend:

(Off author’s site)

Vivian Arend in one word: Adventurous. In a sentence: Willing to try just about anything once. That wide-eyed attitude has taken her around North America, through parts of Europe, and into Central and South America, often with no running water.

Her optimistic outlook also meant that when challenged to write a book, she gave it a shot, and discovered creating worlds to play in was nearly as addictive as traveling the real one.  Now a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of both contemporary and paranormal stories, Vivian continues to explore, write and otherwise keep herself well entertained.
