Ombra Pack Chronicles #2
Wyatt's Forbidden Mate
Wyatt
I've been way too busy to have a life outside of work, which means I've been pretty hard up. That's why, when the hotel puts me and a stranger in a room with one bed by mistake, I end up doing something stupid . The moment our bare skin meets, I know he's my mate, and I can't stop myself.
But he's a man, a human, and that makes him completely off-limits. That's why I had to leave without a word. Werewolves and humans don't mix. I can never see him again. So imagine my surprise when he shows up at my office a month later.
Tanner
It was just supposed to be a business conference, not a one-night stand with a stranger. But now I have to work with him, and I can't turn down this job. I want to hate him for sneaking out, but I can't. How can I resist those deep blue eyes, the ginger beard I love, and all those... muscles ...
We shouldn't be doing this. He's straight, and I'm tired of having my heart broken. This isn't a hallmark movie, and it won't work. But I can't resist the strange bond between us as he turns my world upside down.
Maybe we can make it work.
This spicy wolf shifter romance contains jaw-dropping twists, sizzling sex scenes, bi awakening, there's only one bed, gay for you, and a happily ever after that will leave you speechless. It should only be read by those who like their 'straight' werewolves hot and their boyfriends even hotter.

UNE TRADUCTION MÉDIOCRE AVEC UN CULOMÈTRE À 🥵
Je crois que c'est mon histoire préférée celle ci, Wyatt, homme hétéro, qui a un compagnon homme et humain ! D'autant plus qu'après une nuit de folie, Wyatt va devenir le patron Tanner, puisque le père de celui-ci l'a viré de l'entreprise familiale pour une raison fumeuse pour le foutre dans celle de Wyatt !
C'est carrément explosif ! Ahlala je me suis régalée, heureusement que je sais lire sans voir la traduction foireuse mdrr
JE VEUX LA SUITE !!!!!!!!

A bit disappointed
This is the first book I read in the series and I started with it because the synopsis seemed intriguing to me. I was a little disappointed by all kinds of little things like the nicknames of dude and bro that repeated themselves too much and create a bit of distance in the relationship. Also the light dom/sub interaction that came out of nowhere during some of the sex scenes.
I had higher expectations.

Wyatt's Forbidden Mate
By Blake R. Wolfe
Wyatt and Tanner are both in the same boat. They're stuck with father's who have the 'good ole boys' work mentality. Wyatt and Tanner have both done everything their father's have ever asked them to while waiting for them retire and turn the company reigns over to their son, but it seems like that is never going to happen for either of them. When Wyatt and Tanner meet and they are unexpectedly put in the same hotel room a like/hate relationship ensues from there. Can they stay together, and can they finally get their father's to turn over the company reigns?
I liked Wyatt and Tanner, but the story itself was to set in the human world. By that, I mean there was no pack interaction until the end. There were no pack issues. I'm not even sure if Wyatt's father was the pack Alpha or not and almost no emphasis was put on whether Wyatt is an alpha or alpha heir. It reads like a normal MM romance, but with tiny bits of shifter parts thrown in here and there. The series is about shifters. It should have a lot more emphasis on that part of their lives. In that way it was a bit of a disappointment.

Mate
This is another good book in this series. I am giving it a 4/5. This book is about two guys trying hard to win the approval of their fathers. Wyatt is a wolf shifter who is straight. He meets his mate at a conference. Wyatt’s mate is Tanner , a gay human. That is taboo for Wyatt’s pack. But they have sex and Wyatt leaves. They don’t see each other again until Tanner shows up at Wyatt’s office because he has to work for him or be disinherited by his father. Of course there is a lot tension between the two men. Tanner and Wyatt will have to work out their feelings for each or risk being unhappy for the rest of their lives. I am going to buy the third book in this series.

Bro.
Dude.
No homo.
A one-night stand with NO PREP and no condoms (WTAF?).
I feel the mate bond with you. But I'm not gay.
Mating with humans is forbidden in my pack so we can never be a thing (even though my best friend just mated with a human and formed his own pack that I could join).
My father hates me and has never thought I was good enough, but I'll keep busting my ass to earn the respect I know he'll never give me. - both MC's
I won't be your gay experiment.
Let's just have a summer fling.
🙄
I seriously just give up. I'm starting to yell at both characters now, and I've got way better uses for my book-reading time.

Second Install As Good As the First
It is always a turn on to read about a straight man realizing that he is attracted to another man. Such is the case with Wyatt—the straight guy growing up with two gay men. But he meets his mate: Tanner and out went the straight and in game the gay guy. Lots of interesting circumstances. It good that Aiden & Parker were also part of this story.

A Decent Sequel
Mostly OK and fits in well with book 1 by continuing the slowly growing story for the 3 best friends and their new pack. Acceptable character development and storyline threaded through multiple sex scenes. Book 2 ends on a positive note for this couple and with a lead into the next book.

Straight Wyatt meets his mate, but guess what? It's a man. A human man. No-nos in the traditional pack that he belongs to.
Tanner has been fired by his father's real estate company and sent to work for Wyatt's fathers company.
Oops. Mate feelings spark and grow till their world s fall apart to begin anew.

🎧 A ‘gay for you’ story with werewolves, found family, family drama, family secrets, and spice. Wyatt thought he was straight. Tanner knew he was gay. Turns out, who your mate is doesn’t take your sexuality into consideration. I felt for both men and the generational trauma they both endured. I like this series so far, and am ready for #3.

A fun, formulaic, read that won't challenge you and does reference another series that is much the same and equally enjoyable. When you want a mental "cleanser" from something super series these are a great, low effort, read.

AWE! The Love of a Man!
Another great story from the Ombra Pack Chronicles. I'm ready to start the next book. Both stories are about different backgrounds, such as Real Estate business. B.L.Wolfe makes it work. Love them. ENJOY!

Wyatt y Tanner llevan toda su vida intentando agradar a sus padres para heredar sus negocios.
Esta pareja me ha gustado, aunque para ser un libro de cambiaformas apenas se tiene en cuenta.
Parece una pareja normal con amigos paranormales.

Wyatt is a fun character who interested me from the previous book. I enjoyed reading more about his character and meeting Tanner.

Needs less salt
Seriously, the overly emphasized erotica detracts from a delightful story of love triumphing over commercial greed. Good characters and setting though.

It's not a bad book, though hard to recommend. There's not a lot of depth but there is a kind of gonzo energy that makes it a pleasant enough diversion.
