Shifter agent Bryon Day has been deeply undercover for over a year. A.L.F.A. hasn't heard from him for months, so they fear he's been outed and killed. A shifter team, including newbie agent Kari Tomlin, is sent to bring back news of his mission or a body.

My Thoughts - 5 out of 5 Unicorns - I loved it!!!
***I choose what I read and review based on what intrigues me!! I bought a copy of this book and also received a review copy of book 4, but no one tells me what to think, feel, or write about any book! I bought this whole series!!
Dangerous Mating
This is the 3rd book in the series, and it is for adults only due to the violence and steamy content. This book does have topics of torture and human trafficking, so if you are sensitive to these topics, plan accordingly. While it is not mandatory to read the books in order, I think you will enjoy the world and characters more together!
I devoured this book and could not put it down. I love this world that Milly has created. Agent Day has been undercover and goes missing, so they are sending backup to find him. Along for the ride is FBI Agent Kari, she is told you just need to cover for your partner and don’t need to do anything else. She stumbles into trouble, and then her adventure begins. Bryon and Kari are mates trying to stay alive. This fast-paced adventure had me hanging on every word to see what happened next. I love when an author can pull me in so much that it is impossible to put the book down.
Fearless Mating
This is the 4th book in the series, and it is for adults only due to the violence and steamy content. While not mandatory to read them all in order, I highly recommend doing so because it makes the world and characters so much more!
This book had me from page 1, and I loved the whole adventure! As always Milly grabs your attention making it impossible for me to put the book down! I do love this world and the characters! I hope this series continues because it is a wonderful escape.
This is the Director’s story, and Josh does have an adventure and a mate who can keep up with his fierceness. I love how strong Candy is, but she has some baggage to deal with. I never knew where this story would go next!
I highly recommend to any shifter fan who loves adventure and mating romance! I can’t wait to see what Milly comes up with next! She is fast becoming one of my favorite authors!

DNF after the first of the two stories. I could see what the author tried to write but didn‘t succeed in for me.
October 7, 2018
This book has danger, mystery but most of all humor. Kari is working for the FBI as a decoder and she is exceptional at it so she is asked to go undercover with A.L.F.A, a group of military shifters. She just had to pretend to be a girlfriend to get the prince so they can find the missing shifter Bryon Day who is undercover. Well for all her brains Kari is missing her gracefulness and the problems she gets into are crazy and dangerous but the little instances along the way in the search are priceless but she is a lovable character that you will want to see more of if she makes it out alive
When Josh the director of A.F.L.A. meets Sergent Major Candice he realizes he found his mate but Candice thinks he is crazy. She is the person who wants to shut his group down because to her they make to many mistakes to get the job done. Josh is determined to prove her wrong and convince her to be his mate but trouble finds them before he has a chance. Josh has to decide does he risk exposing himself and his team as shifters to save the president and possibly risk losing Candice. Candice is one tough cookie and might not have a problem with shifters but she is gonna fight to be called someone’s mate. Story has dangerous situations and some funny moments that make this an enjoyable read.
Great two book set

3 - DANGEROUS MATING
What a fun and interesting read with a few darker moments.
A bit of Indian Jones action happening that just made this story a good fun read.
Balancing out the clumsiness of Kari and the humour to be found, is the terrible facet of human trafficking.
Kari is a sweet heroine, super smart but clumsy in the extreme. This causes humorous moments but also works in her favour – sometimes.
Bryon is a good guy caught in a bad situation. When help arrives in the most unexpected of people, things become more complicated and I loved how he protected Kari and enjoyed her intelligence.
Loved how this story flowed and enjoyed every minute of it.
4 - FEARLESS MATING
3.5 stars as one part just didn’t work for me.
Josh and Candace are a perfect pairing.
Loved both of them as a couple as their strengths bolstered the other and they worked through any weaknesses.
I was thoroughly loving this action packed romp but then we had the last couple of chapters that just didn’t make sense.
They allowed, in fact flew, the baddie to another location, where they would be outside US jurisdiction/help and have no idea of what situation they would be in.
I believe the author was trying for a nail biting finish but it just didn’t work for me.
Loved the ending with everyone together and the surprise.
Read through my local library.

Huraaah!
You can't go wrong with a Milly Taiden tale! Big, smart, sexy females who know who they are and what they can do. Strong sexy men who appreciate the women are the meat of her stories and the world's she builds. This author is intelligent, quick witted and imaginative. It all comes out in her writing. I am a huge fan and love her work.
Her stories are well thought out and keep the reader vested in the outcome, even knowing that they end in Happily Ever Afters. Her prose show this along with a delightfully laugh out loud humor. And this book in no exception. Real problems, real emotions and what I call, "I want me some of that" loving. These are partnerships that must learn to trust and compromise, to work together for that HEA. Enjoy! I know I did and will again.

This is the first book I've ever read by Milly Taiden and I loved it. It has two different stories in it. It is about a secret government agency of shifters. They fight international bad guys to keep everyone safe. There's action and romance with a good storyline. I definitely recommend.

I LOVED this story. I hate to admit that i have never been to interested in this type of storyline, but Millie won me over. I was so sucked in I read both stories in 2 days. Even if you don't normally read supernatural stories, I highly recommend this story.

I was in search of new werewolves. This has all of the good stuff that the five star readers liked, but it wasn't what I had in mind. But I did finish both titles - it is a fast read - and I can see that the author did what she wanted to do very well.

Enjoyed this book very much.

I really enjoyed both stories in this book. It is a quick and easy read that I finished in one sitting. I enjoyed the characters though I think there could have been more depth to each story. As it stands it was a fast paced story that went quickly. I enjoyed the first story a little more than the second because Kari amused me. I will be trying the others in this series now. I think this is a must for someone looking for a quick and light paranormal romance story.
I received an eARC from NetGalley.

I found the description of this book a little misleading. I was expecting something along the lines of Jason Bourne and ended up with the Librarian. Nothing wrong with either movie but two totally different feels. The mystery/action was a little light and quirky, it was a bit heaver on romance but not a lot of emotional depth. It is well written so if you are looking for a light easy read you will probably like it. Just not my cup of tea.

I liked the book, but I would consider it paranormal romance light. It's a fun, quirky read without a lot of depth. It is well written, so if you are looking for a light easy read you might like this book.
