Pack Mentality (Collection) by Julia Talbot

Big Bad Wolf (Pack Mentality 3) by Julia Talbot

In the previous two book of the series (which unfortunately I haven't read yet) Steve may have questioned his sexuality. Now he obstinately claim he is not gay and he doesn't like men... but his body likes very much a man, and not a common man, but the alpha of his pack.

Kamen has smelled the fear of Steve, but also his desire and this is a scent he likes very much. And he has decide that he wants Steve, and what he wants he obtains. With a skilled game of seduction, he will bring Steve to the point of no possible refusal, but in the pack someone is not happy with an alpha who prefers men amongst women.

Steve is like a baby in a candy shop: the mum says him not to eat too candy, but they are all around him... so is Steve with Kamen, he knows he can't taste him, cause one little taste will not be enough...

A really interesting but short tale, the game of seduction of Kamen is really funny. I have the feeling that Julia Talbot has not yet finished with these characters...

Natural Selection (Pack Mentality 4) by Julia Talbot

Ryan, a werewolf, and Loyal, a werebear, have a pretty good life together. They live in the Mesa, Colorado, and everything could be perfect, if not that Ryan, being a wolf, is a pack being, and he misses the pack life.

So when Kamen moves his pack near them, Ryan is drawn to them like a magnete. Ryan is a bit careless, Loyal is more cautious, and also Kamen is not so willing to let a stranger near his pack. But when Loyal is captured in his bear form, Ryan can only ask help to Kamen and his wolfes.

The story is pretty short, less than 40 pages, but it's funny and enjoyable. Loyal is big and tender, he needs few things in life, food and sex, with food perhaps in first line before sex. Ryan is a cute guy, nice and friendly. The story is a nice addendum to the Pack Mentality series, but maybe is better if you read it with the others of the series.
