June Featured Author: Celia Kyle

Jun. 01, 2020

I began reading Celia Kyle several years ago. I discovered her Grayslake series and the rest as they say is history. Grayslake is one of my favorite series of her but she can a couple of them that I love. In fact, I reread them whenever I am in a book slump. Sometimes I reread them when I just need a good laugh and romance. The books I have listed below are only a very small sampling of the books by this amazing author. I listed just a few of my favorites. Also all of the books mentioned below are currently Free in Kindle Unlimited.

Mated to the Bear was originally published as No Ifs, And, Or Bears About It. This was my first Celia Kyle book and the one that got me hooked on her as author. Mia is awesome! She doesn’t like people cursing and will know if you do it in your head as well. Ty is the Itan of Grayslake and lets just say Mia is not what he was expecting. I love that this book begins with a lost cub in the pantry. Watching Mia go all mother bear on everyone in an attempt to protect him gave the book the perfect beginning.

He Ain’t Lion brings us to Ridgeville and another town of shifters. If you are looking for a series that is hawt and full of laughs, this is the series for you. Maya is a curvy human looking for a good time. Her friend tells her about the shifter club and she heads over. only her friend didn’t mention this is a special party for shifters so they can all, forgive the pun, hook up like bunnies! Maya ends up not only mated to the Prime of the pride of cats in town but also a cat herself. This entire series is full of Mayaisms that will have you peeing your pants laughing.

Seduced by the Wolf was originally published as Howl My Name. We met Reid in a previous book when he was the Alpha of a wold pack. He did something that got him into a whole bunch of trouble and now this wolf is a bear. He really is just trying to complete his punishment. Killing the Itan of a clan as well as most of his counsel puts a kink in all his plans. Add in a mate, a clan full of frightened bears, and his family (sort of) showing up and Reid is ready to call his therapist and beg her to come. NOT!

Rhal is my favorite of The Ujal series. They are mer-people who have come to Earth of the future to find a home. They help Earth undo the damage from pollution and other things. Rhal is a dark character and is the king’s secret assassin. He loves Cara but knows that he can never have her as a mate. When the mating process is started without their knowledge (you really have to read what happens) he will have to come to terms with a mate. That is until she does the unforgivable. I loved this book. It had so much depth and emotion and remains one of favorites of the series.

    I am completely new to most shifter books besides werewolves and vampires.. I know, I know.. I’m super old school. To be honest, I’m so new to them, I don’t really know where to start.

Mia
 
An island fling was the last thing I expected when I agreed to spend a month on a tropical island with Graham and Soraya as nanny to their sweet little boy. I was planning to relax with the family, enjoy the sun, and get a break from law school...
 
Then a shirtless, tanned Adonis runs onto our beach and into my life.
 
JT is mysterious, rugged, and his gruff exterior should have sent me running in the opposite direction. But something about the man excites me, challenges me to push past my insecurities. And though I don't see myself as a "fling" kind of girl, maybe it's just what I need to move on from my painful past. The trouble is JT has quickly imprinted himself on my soul, and saying goodbye to him is going to break me.
 
JT
 
Going back to the island, the only place I felt like myself, was a no-brainer. Not just somewhere to seek refuge from business, family, and especially women. It's a place of serenity...to clear my head and get rid of the anger of betrayal and figure out what I want to do with my life.
 
Then Mia happens, forcing her way into my heart. Like a violent storm that rushes in, wreaking havoc but ultimately ushering in a new dawn. She sees things in me I never knew existed. But our worlds are spinning in different directions, and no matter how badly I want to hang on, the force pulling us apart might just be too strong for both of us.

Life isn’t fair.

If anyone on Earth should know that, it’s Milena Semyonov.

She’s suffered blow after blow, and the hits just keep on coming.

Just when she’s sworn off being happy, that maybe being numb is the better way to navigate life, she meets him.
Cutter Carson Clayborne.

The man that finally shows her how a real man is supposed to treat her.

Just when she didn’t think life could get any worse, the man that abused her as a young, impressionable teen is back, showing her that life can, in fact, get worse.

When she’s ready to quit, Cutter is there, making sure that she knows that he’ll be there, whether she wants him there or not.

He is her husband, after all. And the unlikely pair have an understanding that they’ll stay married for two years, make a baby, and join two crime syndicates in unholy matrimony.

Cutter has other plans, though. He only agrees to the original plan to make her his.

He won’t ever give her up. What’s his stays his. And there’s not a man on the earth that’ll ever touch Milena again. Not with Cutter alive and able to take out anyone that tries.

Broody. Hot. Intoxicating.
 
Nastya Semyonov first met Haze at a bar, but for Haze Hopkins, duty calls before either can act on their desires. He’s gone without a glance back, leaving her thinking that maybe all the hot looks were only one-sided.
 
Fast forward to the next day, Nastya hitches a ride to her car that she left behind the night before, only to run into the same man from last night.
 
Neither one truly thinks before they act, and they spend a hot fifteen minutes in a fast-food restaurant bathroom before parting ways again.
 
It’s as she’s walking back to her car that she realizes how badly she’s screwed up.
 
Because her car is surrounded in police tape, and there’s one very angry man wearing a badge standing in front of it with her name on an arrest warrant for killing a man.
 
Mistakes were made. Repeatedly.
 
But Detective Haze Hopkins isn’t complaining.
 
He was ready to quit, anyway.
 
Crime pays better.

There was right, there was wrong, and then there was the in-between.
 
The place where normal people reside, understanding that there are two sides to every coin. People that do bad things for good reasons. People that do bad things for bad reasons.
 
First, I knew that Shasha Semyonov was a bad man. One that did bad things for bad reasons. That didn’t mean that I was rational when it came to him.
 
He was toxic to my health, yet I wanted him anyway.
 
They say the first step to healing is admitting when you have a problem.
 
My problem happened to be six feet two inches tall, two hundred and twenty pounds, and bearded to perfection.
 
Oh, and he was also the scariest guy I knew.
 
Meanwhile, I was the laughingstock of the city.
 
The woman who was cheated on by her boyfriend with her best friend, and it was captured live while a band played in the background, perfectly accenting the humiliating video.
 
There was no way that Shasha Semyonov would notice me.
Right?
 
Wrong.
 
I’d definitely been noticed.
