Wolves Of The Beyond Lone Wolf (Book 1) - Kathryn Lasky

This is a good book to read. I couldn't put it down.
Its about a young pup being born with a spayed pawed. When the obe comes and takes him away to die or to survive on his own. On that night his eyes and ears open up when a loud noise happen he is washed away down river. That is when he meets his second milk giver, Thunderheart a grizzly bear, who came to the river to die cause she lost her cub to a cougar. But instead found a little wolf pup that she takes as her own. Thunderheart names him Faoloan. She teaches him everything she knows and gets him to make his spayed paw stronger than the others so he doesn't have to have a weakness. Later on she has him eat the best parts of all his kills to become stronger and to run faster than anything. As he grows he learns about what to eat and how to fish.
During a winter Thunderheart explains that she will go into a sleep that will last till spring. She tells him to go out when he's bored to eat and drink then to come back. Later one day he does and she wakes up confused she goes looking for him. but never finds him cause a quake happens she is killed when a boulder hits her head.
Later Faolan comes back to the cave an discovers Thunderheart gone. He stays till he can't any more. An thinks that maybe she went to the outermost. There Faolan goes looking and he discovers wolves there that are not like the ones he heard one night. They don't work as a pack but as one for themselves. So he doesn't let them see him. As he leaves the outermost he finds a bear head that belongs to Thunderheart and knows what happen to her.
He starts to follow the packs that lives in the beyond to see what they are like. One pack he knows he wont go to cause they remind him of the wolves of the outermost. Another is lead by a female alpha. The other he doesn't know this is that is the pack he was born in.
Later after listen to a story form the Mac Duncun pack. The leader is called to them and he discovers the spayed paw print. Thinking that is the foaming mouth sickness. He calls the other packs to run this wolf that smell like a bear into the fire to kill it so that the sickness doesn't harm any of the packs.
When Faolan is chased into the fire instead of dying he jumps the fire wall. That's when the old chieftain remembers that the obe took a young pup away with a spayed paw out into the wild to either die or survive the wilds to come back to the pack as a gnawed wolf.
When he has a young gnawed wolf write the story for Faolan. The chieftain says when they return to the pack they will named him. That's when Faolan tells them that he already has a name from his milk giver Thunderheart the grizzly bear. Shocking the chieftain he asked the grizzly bear raised you. Yes and she named me Faolan. So you can called me Faolan.
I hope the second book is just as goo as this one

Omega's New Life: M/M Gay Paranormal Omega/Vampire Shifter Mpreg Short Story Romance - Aiden Bates


It was a good start to thus book. Going to have to get the rest so I know how it ends. I like short stories cause I can read them in my down time if I don't feel like reading a novel.
If you like books on vampires and werewolves. You'll live this. Like I say a short story is very good to read in your down time or between novels.
This starts off with a omega trying to get and alpha who already has an omega but is a norm, which means he's a human and not a wolf. After taking that omega home and leaving him there. He goes home to his omega to celebrate his birthday. And to forget everything that happened that night. Like when the alpha of the pack told him about vampires that was coming through the town and they will be staying at the inn. But one comes to his apartment. He finds out that his omega and this vampire use to be boyfriends till he become a vampire. He's come to warn his omega that a vampire is after him.
That's were the first one ends. Hopefully the second will be just as interesting as the first.

This is the first in my 2016 + 4 challenge for this year. Started reading on the 2nd of January 2016.

Skye's Lure - Angel Leya, Sea Chapman

I really like this book. If you like books on mermaid and the ocean then you will like this one.

As you start to read this book. You meet Skye as she tells the story of how her people came to be. It is a story that is passed down to each pod that is born.

While doing that she watches a boat with a golden bottom come around while the pod sleeps. It has all different color lights on it and a bunch of people moving around on it. One named Vince falls into the ocean where he is saved from dieing by Skye.

When she meets him again its when he comes back to see if she was real cause all his friends said he was drunk and saw things. She finds out that the reason he fell off his boat was because he had a diseased that will make him loose all kinds of movement and that later on in his life he will have to be in a wheel chair for the rest of his life.

Vince tricks into seeing land, his ship, what a computer and tv is. Even different types of food.

After getting her to come aborad his ship by the used of a tank. he the course back to shore. And she feels the boat leave she tries to get him to take her back. But after telling him that if any other mermaid finds out about her talking to him it was a death sentence. He goes against her wishes an takes her to his home. He figures that if her and his dad could talk they can both help the ocean. But later finds out that after he paid a maid off for deleting a picture of Skye. His dads put it out to everyone to know that mermaids are real and that his son Vince has one.

Vince makes a promise to Skye that he will take her home. He figures out a way. But on the way to leaving to his boat a report gets a picture of them together. Vince carring a mermaid. He makes it on board his ship and sets off. But on the way it is all over about the mermaid.

Skye tell Vince that they have to find the Sea King that only he might be able to help.

As they search the ocean for the Sea King. They finally find him. Skye asked the Sea King if there was a way for him to help. He gives her three days as a human to put things right and gives Vince three days as a mermaid. But after the three days they have to deiced which it will be. If they don't then he will.

As the days goes on Vince is loving it to be a mermaid. But he knows he will do anything for Skye.

As the days goes by Skye is having all knids of fun. Like running, walking, shopping, ect. On one of her days she has an interview with the reporter that took the picture of her an Vince. She tells its all a hoax and that they wanted people to know what it was like to have something only to be taking away. She also finds out she has the same diseased that Vince has.

On there last day Vince tells her that if she want s to stay human he wouldn't mind that they can both grow old together even when both would be in wheelchairs at a certain time in there life. But Skye tell him no and that she want to be a mermaid once again.

That's when the Sea King appears and said he was glad to be going back to being what she was. He tells her of a pod towards the north where she and Vince will be welcome in. And that there is others pods as well. Many mermaid would leave there home together as pairs. That's when she realize that both her and Vince has always had a bound from the time they meet. And that's when she finally realize that she got what everyone always wanted in life.

Love...
