Release Day Review: Tattered Loyalties (Talon Pack #1) by Carrie Ann Ryan

[Eva Millien]

Blurb:

When the great war between the Redwoods and the Centrals occurred three decades ago, the Talon Pack risked their lives for the side of good. After tragedy struck, Gideon Brentwood became the Alpha of the Talons. But the Pack’s stability is threatened, and he’s forced to take mate—only the one fate puts in his path is the woman he shouldn’t want.

Though the daughter of the Redwood Pack’s Beta, Brie Jamenson has known peace for most of her life. When she finds the man who could be her mate, she’s shocked to discover Gideon is the Alpha wolf of the Talon Pack. As a submissive, her strength lies in her heart, not her claws. But if her new Pack disagrees or disapproves of fate’s choice, the consequences could be fatal.

As the worlds Brie and Gideon have always known begin to shift, they must face their challenges together in order to help their Pack and seal their bond. But when the Pack is threatened from the inside, Gideon doesn’t know who he can trust and Brie’s life could be forfeit in the crossfire. It will take the strength of an Alpha and the courage of his mate to realize where true loyalties lie.

My Review: 

The pack’s stability is threatened and as Alpha of the Talon Pack, Gideon Brentwood is being forced to take a mate only fate has stepped in and given him a mate that he shouldn’t want in this exciting paranormal romance.

Brie Jamenson, as a pack submissive knows that her strength is her heart not her claws but mating with a pack alpha could have deadly consequences and the reader gets drawn into the story as Brie takes a stand to do what she must pack traditions put Gideon’s between a rock and a hard place. Brie’s character is stronger than everyone thinks and really captures the heart as she proves to everyone that being submissive does not mean weak while there is plenty of red hot sizzling passion between them the relationship will take a little work as they have to get to know each other and overcome preconceived ideas.

These strong captivating characters grab the reader’s attention and the fast paced and smooth flowing plot keeps reader’s on their toes with lots of suspense, excitement and romance. There is never a dull moment as the pack members have problems with the mating but also there are some dangerous enemies inside the pack that endangers everyone as they have a diabolical agenda that Gideon and his family will have to uncover if they hope to survive. The scenes and details are well written and bring the story to life and the well orchestrated events and surprising twists ensure that the reader wants to know everything.

I have been waiting impatiently for this story and I have to say that it was well worth the wait as I have completely fallen for the Talon Pack and the sexy Brentwoods, so I will be waiting on pins and needles to find out what happens next.

About Carrie Ann Ryan

USA Today Bestselling Author Carrie Ann Ryan never thought she’d be a writer. Not really. No, she loved math and science and even went on to graduate school in chemistry. Yes, she read as a kid and devoured teen fiction and Harry Potter, but it wasn’t until someone handed her a romance book in her late teens that she realized that there was something out there just for her. When another author suggested she use the voices in her head for good and not evil, The Redwood Pack and all her other stories were born.

Carrie Ann is a bestselling author of over twenty novels and novellas and has so much more on her mind (and on her spreadsheets *grins*) that she isn’t planning on giving up her dream anytime soon.
