The Ostin Heir (Isle of Ostin Book 1) by Michelle Dare

Seventy years ago, Theo Ostin witnessed his family murdering a town of humans. He also watched as stakes were driven into his parents’ chests. Since then, he’s lived on an island no one knows still exists, let alone that he survived.

He prefers it that way.

There’s something about Desolate Beach that calls to Paxton Huxley on a visceral level. He doesn’t understand why, but he gives in and stands on the sand every chance he gets.

One day, a man gives him a note and a pendant before vanishing right in front of his eyes. The catch? Paxton now works for a royal vampire.

But is it really a job when he starts to desire the man he’s helping?

Maybe, just maybe, amid the hell they’re both in, they’ll find something more important. Something they will fight to the death to keep. Love.

The Ostin Heir is a 66K word steamy M/M paranormal romance. It features a vampire who thinks he’s too broken to deserve love and a human who’s determined to show his possessive lover that he’s in it for the long haul. There is forced proximity, tragic pasts, a brooding virgin vampire, and a HEA. The series is best enjoyed in order due to the overarching storyline. Each book revolves around a different couple.

Content warning for descriptive violence, drinking of blood, assault, anxiety, off-page rape, and off-page suicide.

The Somber Call (The Ariane Trilogy Book 2) by Michelle Dare

A tragic loss. A broken pack. A lone wolf.

The pack war was drawing closer, and Ariane found herself at a crossroad amid the chaos that was her life.

Which road should she follow? One gave her a chance at normalcy, while the other threw her deeper into turmoil.

She had new powers, a shifter for a boyfriend, and blood on her hands.

There was also the lone wolf who had been cast out and sought solace with Ari as he fought to return home.

This wasn’t how she thought her life would play out.

Nevertheless, a decision had to be made. And in the middle of it was Orion, wondering which road Ari would follow.

I am angry. I am angry for Ford. All I can say about this second book is how unfair everything is for Ford.

I am angry because I know this is a character development and the relationships between Ari and everyone is still in the making. She is kind and loves too much. BUT damn… everything i’ve read is Ari and Ford… Ford and Ari…. Ford, Ford, Ford… and Rion on the side. I hate it.

I will continue this series because I am invested in Rion to finally be seen as he is supposed to be and Ford to have his deserving mate.

Ari, I am angry at you and your confused, young and childish thoughts.

The Ash Moon (The Ariane Trilogy Book 1) by Michelle Dare

A kept secret. A life altered. A new journey.

Ariane lived her life one book at a time. She would never have guessed those books were about to change everything.

They led her to Orion.

Tall, dark, with eyes only for her. The rest of the world ceased to exist when Orion was around. But during a fateful ash moon, he shifted into a wolf. Ari thought she was dreaming, but she’d recognize those eyes anywhere.

Fiction became reality. Fantasy was actually history. And soon, Ari would learn her role in it.

A pack war was on the horizon, and she was the only one who could stop it.

Nothing would ever be as it once was, because Ariane was now part of the Avynwood Pack.

I was recommended this series by a friend and started reading in blind. What I knew was that it started slow but the rest of the series is worth it.

Ariene is a normal human, in love with her romance paranormal author. She goes to a signing and there she is invited by said author to an after party.

Ari soon learns that she was there for a reason and that she soon will met her wolf mate, Orion. This is how she learns that every romance she’s ever read are real and inspired from the pack life she is now part of.

Yes, the book starts slow, no sexy times as they are both virgins. I was promised the book goes better and I will read into it more. Kept posted on my reviews for the following. Keep in mind that the first one is setting the pace and building their world. We learn of it as Ari does, while Rion is patiently waiting to claim his mate.

While I’m loving the main characters, I can’t help but feel more for the vampire and his unrequited love for Ari. It’s heartbreaking, but I know he will have his own HEA.

Aiden’s Awakening (Paranormals of Avynwood Book 10) by Michelle Dare

Aiden’s world was rocked when he learned paranormals existed.

Since then, he’d made new friends, but every encounter only emphasized how ordinary his life was.

Eighteen years was very young for a vampire. During that time, Honey hadn’t seen much. What she lacked in experience, she made up for in intelligence.

When a violent car accident happened right before Honey’s eyes, she jumped into action.

Aiden was on the brink of death. He felt himself slipping away, then someone appeared. But she didn’t rescue him. She plunged him deeper into pain and darkness.

Being made into a vampire was an excruciating experience. Once the agony receded, Aiden had to embrace his powers. He had to learn to live an entirely new life—one that was far removed from his previously mundane one.

Their relationship was forged from the choices they had to make. Their love was something they both had to fight for. What they didn’t realize was fate was testing them.

They would either embrace what was right in front of them or watch as it withered away.

Brayden’s Return (Paranormals of Avynwood Book 5) by Michelle Dare

For the last several years, Brayden felt like an outcast amongst his friends.

Since the day he saw a man shift into a wolf, he knew he no longer belonged in their circle. They were immersed in the paranormal world while he was away at college, living the life of an ordinary human.

One night while he was walking home, he saw a dog in need of help. Turns out, it wasn’t a dog at all.

Kandra was a wolf shifter on the run.

She’d fled an abusive relationship, running from a male she once thought she could trust. As a lone wolf, she was free, but she was also slowly dying.

Pack life wasn’t something Kandra wanted, and she never thought she’d trust another male. Yet, she trusted Brayden. In him, she found the opportunity to join a new pack—shifters who would be there when she needed them.

But the past came calling, and they would take back what was theirs.

Kandra’s life was in danger and Brayden would do whatever it took to keep his mate safe, including asking a vampire to bite him. His new life was extraordinary—because she was in it.

With his vampire given powers, Brayden was ready to fight for the one he loved. Now all he had to do was find her.

Tempting Titus (Paranormals of Avynwood Book 6) by Michelle Dare

Life seemed to be moving in the right direction at last. Then the fires started.

As a wolf shifter with vampire gifted powers, Titus was better equipped to handle emergencies than others. But he wasn’t invincible.

Never had she met someone like him.

With the paranormal community under threat, their homes and businesses going up in flames, Imogen wasn’t worried. Too bad her abilities didn’t equal safety.

The magnetism between Titus and Imogen was potent from the start. Both tried to fight it. But fate had a different plan for them—a perilous one.

The world was burning around them. Everyone Titus and Imogen loved was at risk.

When the ashes cooled and the dust settled, they would find out if their love survived fate’s test.

Denying Davian (Paranormals of Avynwood Book 7) by Michelle Dare

Davian’s life hadn’t been easy.

After two near-death experiences, he held on to his optimism, even if danger still had a way of finding him.

Beneath her kind exterior, Robin was in unbelievable pain after losing her best friend. Sheer determination kept her going, even when she wanted to give up.

Then Davian appeared with his infectious smile and cheerful demeanor.

They were an unlikely pair.

One was a panther shifter and the other a fae princess. However, Robin didn’t want a mate, so she pushed Davian away at every turn. Too bad for her, he wasn’t the type to give up.

When an outside threat found its way to the fae realm, Davian leapt into action.

Fate had a way of placing paranormals where they were meant to be.

Ladon’s Desire (Paranormals of Avynwood Book 8) by Michelle Dare

Being human while living with a pack of wolves wasn’t ideal.

Ladon wanted the connection the mated pairs had, but it was always out of his reach. One more leap into a relationship could destroy him… Or it could save him.

Belonging to the Verascue family had its benefits. As the most powerful vampires in existence, they were equally feared and admired. They were also the only family Genevieve had left.

Ladon and Gen’s friendship was comfortable and secure. Words of love weren’t voiced, even if they were felt. Until everything changed.

When death breathed down Ladon’s neck, Gen couldn’t let him go.

One bite and their bond became crystal clear. She would keep him by her side no matter the cost.

The pack was under attack. Lives were on the line. And it was up to Ladon and Gen to save them all. Together.

Craving Camden (Paranormals of Avynwood Book 9) by Michelle Dare

Welcome to the dark side of the paranormal world.

For a hundred years, Camden had one all-consuming goal: to find his brother Caiden. He was forever searching and always hoping.

Whitlock spent his life denying the power inside him. Living openly was an adjustment, one he wasn’t comfortable with yet. Though the others knew part of his story, he still kept one secret to himself. He lived in fear of the pack not accepting him.

The first time Whit saw Cam, it was love at first sight.

He never dreamed his crush would want him back.

But Caiden was still on the run, leaving a part of Cam perpetually empty. Whit would do anything to soothe Cam’s soul, even if it meant putting himself in harm’s way.

Death. Danger. Inevitable destruction. That was the life these shifters led.

Only time would tell if they’d survive the latest storm headed their way.

Solomon’s Surrender (Paranormals of Avynwood Book 4) by Michelle Dare

Cocky. No word better described Solomon.

He projected the playboy image, but only he knew the truth. Deep inside, he wanted what his brother and friends had—a mate.

Fifteen hundred years was a long time to be alone. Solomon’s pure vampire bloodline and family name made him desirable, but that didn’t take away the loneliness.

Lilah was fiercely independent and distrusting of paranormals out of necessity. Some treated her with contempt because of her half cheetah shifter/half fae heritage. They thought she was beneath them when she was actually superior.

Someone was determined to take Lilah’s life, but who was behind the attacks remained a mystery. Solomon fought off the first assault then became Lilah’s sole protector until he uncovered who wanted to harm her.

One wanted a mate, and the other didn’t. But fate didn’t ask for their opinion.

They could only fight what was meant to be for so long before the inevitable happened. If they managed to stay alive, maybe they would learn what it meant to be fated.
