Mated in Chaos by Carrie Ann Ryan | Book Review

Jan. 16, 2023

Mated in Chaos by Carrie Ann Ryan | Book Review

One thing Carrie Ann Ryan always does well is paranormal romance. We are now on the third book of the second Redwood Pack spin-off series and they just keep getting better and better.

Mated in Chaos by Carrie Ann Ryan | Book Reviewfive-stars
Mated in Chaos by Carrie Ann Ryan
Series: Aspen Pack #3
Genres: Paranormal Romance

My wolf hid my fated mates—until the moon goddess forced our mating.

As Alpha of the Central Pack, I know we are the weakest link in the alliance, but I will stop at nothing to prove our worth and rebuild from our shameful and brutal past.

Along the way I fell for Adalyn and Nico, but stayed away, thinking they were fated for each other—and never me.

When a mating bond is forced on us, our worlds collide and now we must survive in this new fated life where rules break and the heat between us boils over.

Only Valac’s revenge over losing his mate in our previous battles take danger to a new level and if I’m not careful, I’ll lose my two mates before I even get a chance to make them fall for me like I have for them.

And if we’re not careful, the darker danger hiding in the shadows might break us all. As Valac’s master is waiting. And he’s closer than we think.

I received this book for free from in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

In this book we have Cole Levin the Alpha of the Centrals. The Centrals are known as the Cursed Ones because of the things their pack did years ago. Although it wasn’t Cole’s fault they still didn’t receive any blessings from the Moon Goddess because of the mistakes of others. 

He never thought he would find his mate until Adalyn Anthea (an Aspen hunter) and Nico Jamenson (a Redwood and from the leading family) came along. Both of whom have known one another for a while and had been flirting with each other. However, neither Athena nor Nico would take things further because something was missing. I always love when Carrie Ann Ryan does a triad and this one is a good one.

Of course meeting Cole doesn’t make any of them realize just what the Moon goddess is trying to tell them. Sometimes she has to take matters into her own hands and make them pay attention.

This is a wonderful read as always. I love the idea of mates and as I said Carrie Ann Ryan does a great job of triads. Add in the action and suspense of what is going to happen and you get an amazing addition to the series.

five-stars

Holly Lorena Cain, formerly known as Georgina Lorena Cain, was well acquainted with rock bottom. She’s coasted along its rocky shores for years. It all started when her mother left her when she was barely old enough to understand. For years, her and her dad struggled to make ends meet. A dying cattle farm can’t run itself, and with her dad having cancer, it got harder and harder to hang on to land that’s been in her family for generations.

Just as she thinks that she’s finally made it, her father passes away and leaves every single thing he owns to their neighbor. The man that’d been worming his way into her father’s good graces while she’d been away pursuing higher education.

But she can’t be mad.

Being mad would mean that she has a soul left, but she sold that a long time ago to pay for college.

Once she comes to terms with her father and the land being gone, she moves back to Bear Pass and with one thing on her mind—avoid Denver at all costs. He can never know just how much it hurt that he stole her life away from her.

Only, he makes it impossibly hard to stay away.

He’s there around every corner. He offers her a place to stay. Makes sure she has a place to work. Fixes her car. Saves her from a kidnapper. Oh, and gives her everything her heart desires.

She stays away as best as she can, but she doesn’t stand a chance against Denver’s determination and charm. He’s there when no one else is, peeling her off the floor and propping her back up again each time she falls.

The gruff motorcycle club president with his scary glares and harsh work ethic has decided to make her his, and he won’t stand for her refusal.

He’s been protecting her for her entire life, and she doesn’t even know it.

He won’t stop now, even if she’s bound and determined to stay away.
