Seasoned Shifters #3
Her Doctor Mate
He craves her madly, but she’s only pretending to be his...
Dr. Ryan Stevenson has a dream career and a house to match. By day he saves lives at Springton Hospital. By night he runs with the Tarker’s Hollow wolf pack. But from the moment he lays eyes on grad student Addison, the rest of his life feels meaningless. He knows that only Addison can fill the emptiness in his heart and bed. But her innocence makes him fear she won’t be able to handle the truth about what he wants. When Ryan's dying grandmother asks if there is anyone special in his life, he accidentally spills the beans about his newfound love, but doesn't mention the fact that his intended mate isn’t aware of his feelings.
Addison Sparrow is head over heels for Dr. Stevenson, but he seems to deliberately ignore the electricity between them. When his grandmother unexpectedly arrives in town for Thanksgiving week, Addison is shocked that Ryan asks her to pretend to be his fiancée. But she finds herself unable to refuse an opportunity to spend more time with the sexy doctor.
As the events of the season throw them together, Addison and Ryan must put on a cheerful face for Grandma Stevenson, even as their close contact throws them into a tsunami of temptation. Will Dr. Stevenson keep playing it cool? Or will his desire for Addison push the bubbling tension between them to the boiling point?
Experience Required.
If you like wolves, magic, strong women, and alphas with experience, you’re going to love Seasoned Shifters, set in the steamy shifter world of Tarker’s Hollow.

Ms. Black has done it again! Get ready for a fast-paced, smoking hot, sexy, romantic must read! “Her Doctor Mate” is the 3rd awesome PNR fiction book in the new series, “Seasoned Shifters” that returns to the wonderful world of Tarker's Hollow! ... I was grabbed from page one & was glued to my seat not wanting to stop when I had to! This author always comes through with a fresh new plot, interesting new and fantastic recurring characters and entertaining dialogue. Add in some magic & a bit of mystery, plus great attention-to-detail that will pull readers into the story & have them hooked, just like me! ... Even tho I always volunteer to read this author’s books in advance, these are my honest feelings without any outside influences. Plus, I’ve already preordered my own kindle book to keep forever. So yes, I highly recommend this to *adult (18+) fans of fiction & can’t wait for more book ;)

You know that saying......"Actions speak louder than Words" well not in this case!
Dr Ryan Stevenson knew from the ,moment he say Addison in the emergency room that she was the one for him, his mate. Thing is he feels like maybe she doesn't feel the same way for an older man after all she is kind of young. This being his thought, he decides to keep quiet about his feelings and give her space. Will his thinking keep him from the woman that was meant for him?
Addison has seen her 2 best friends mate with the men they are meant t spend the rest of their lives with and she is very happy for them both, but fears she may not be as lucky....The hot Dr. doesn't even give her an indication that he likes her and she's even been dreaming about him. When she has part of her dream come true in the form of the best orgasm she has ever had. She dozes off sure that she has finally got her man, until she wakes up surrounded in a cloud of pillows instead of Ryan's arms. Of all the......she doesn't bother to hear him out just storms away from him,
Will their lack of communication put an end to any hope of a future they both had?

Tarker's Hollow is quiet for once. No bad guys on the horizon, love is in the air. Addison's two roomies have new roomies of their own, true mates. Addison knows the secrets of the pack, however, she's keeping them that way--secret. So secret that not only does the sifter she wants and wants her holds back showing his mating desires. Besides, she's too young.
Ryan, Doctor, settled man knows she's to be his but won't press her. Then his gramma asks the one question he can answer (even if it isn't true) to ease her mind in her final days. He's engaged and has found his mate. Part is true anyway. Only now he has to produce one. Addison knows what it is like to have that kind of relationship with a beloved grandmother. When he silently begs she play along for just a couple of days how can she refuse?
Ms. Black once again gives us a gorgeous guy with a marshmallow heart and a strong female perfect for each other. This conflict is of the emotional kind and will leave you (just like all of Tarker Hollow) cheering them on. I'm always sure to have that feel good feeling at the end of her stories.

Addison is a grad student who has a major thing for Dr. Ryan Stevenson, but he calls her things like "kid" so she doesn't think there's much of a chance for them. He's an ER doctor & he knows that she's his true mate, but her age is causing him to keep her at a distance since he feels she can't handle it. He gets a call from Grandma Stevenson & he lies to her telling her that he has a fiance' never expecting her to find out the truth.
Addison gets hurt during a rock climbing seminar & gets taken the ER. Ryan hears her voice & rushes to her room. During his examination, Grandma Stevenson unexpectedly shows up & put on the spot, Ryan tells her that Addison is his fiance'. She agrees to pretend for 3 days just to be close to him even if she feels bad about lying to his grandmother.
Can they make each other see the truth in their feelings for each other & have a HEA? You have to read it to find out.
Tasha is a genius in her character development and world building. You definitely cannot go wrong by reading anything she writes.

Congratulations on writing another book for us to live with and can't wait to read. Tarker's Hollow is a very romantic place their Thanksgiving season. Addison. A grad student. Came to town with her two friends to write a paper for college. She meets Dr. Ryan Stevenson. And boy did the fireworks go off, well not really. Everything gets quiet and there is no one around but them. Even if they are on a crowded plane or at a Tarker's Hollow football game. They have a long way to go. They never seem to hit the loving part at the same time. Frustrating. Ryan's Grandmother comes to town. He has to hastily make a deal with Addison. Will she take the deal? Will they ever be at the loving part together at the same time? All this and lots of good glowing feelings can be yours. Yes, that's What I said. All this can be yours when you open the book and start to read.
I was given this ARC book for an honest review.

Dr. Ryan, has the career of his dreams, owns a beautiful home, and he’s also a member of Tarker hollow’s Wolfpack. The one thing he doesn’t have is his other half, his mate. Addison is in town with her friends Bianka and Mei to do their graduate work. Even though it is more than that, they’re secretly investigating the magical and shifter world. Addison is head over heels for Ryan, and Ryan feels the same only they can’t seem to get their stuff together. Until Ryan’s grandmother comes to town and he needs her to believe that he is fine. He has a fiancé and everything is great. That’s where Addison comes in. It is not as fake as they think. And their feelings come together, and the physical attraction cannot be stopped. And grandmothers always know. I love this book, it had everything in it, and so many funny parts. The third book in the series, on to number four. Do yourself a favor read them all and read them all in order because it seems like one long story and it is so good.

Addison sparrow came to Tarker Hollow to finish a paper and to find out if wolf shifters were real well if you read the last two books in this series you will know that her two best friends that came with her Blanca and Mei ended up with 2 werewolf mates . Addison has a bad crush on Dr Ryan Stevenson. She keeps having dreams about him that he is her mate but wouldn't he tell her if he was? He just seems to avoid her.
Ryan is very sure addison is his mate but she is so young, sweet and way to innocent. She can't be ready to be his mate. His wolf will scare her. So he does nothing.
Oh and lets just say fate starts its games lol. This story is full of drama, fun, great characters and mush more. I couldn't put it down it was a fun read so done miss it shifter fans.
Voluntarily review a copy and I honestly loved it

Love this series! This couple is hilarious as they try their best to fight the feeling....lol. One of the things I love about this series is the mate concept and knowing that regardless of the stubbornness of the characters, the mate bond is strong and helps them work through all their doubts and misunderstandings. Love the support circle, Grandma & Helen. Super excited for the next one to.....bring it on! I received an advance review copy at no cost and without obligation from the author.

He works way 2 hard. He thought he was trying to protect her cause of her age but she thought it would b cause of avoiding and not wanting sumone like her. She tried 2 keep her promise 2 him but she should have straight out told him how she felt like her friends told her 2 but they both were afraid of what the other would say. He was trying 2 please his grandma but since they were very close she knew what happened and put him in his place B4 I was 2 late. It was really good as usual

Fate
It’s always amazing when you can find the one person that is perfect for you. Ryan and Addison find themselves at odds with what they feel. Ryan sees Addison as younger than she is, however his wolf sees the truth. Addison wants more, but doesn’t think Ryan wants the same. Family and friends are there to help.

This is such a fun series. Her Doctor Mate is a standalone romance with shifters, strong characters and intelligent women. Each book in the series (I have read the first 3) are independent but so much better when read together. Dr. Ryan and Addison have their story. And Grandmother makes three. Bravo!

Not Sure
So I'm really not sure what to say about this book. The storyline was okay but it seem to be missing something. I am not sure what that is so I gave it a 3-star. Maybe whoever reads it going forward might figure out what that little missing piece was.

Allison enjoyed seeing her friends happy with their mates. She has her dream mate to and tries to not think about it. Ryan's grandma has to nudge them alot knowing the truth but not saying anything. This book will not let ya put down to find out outcome.

DNF after 35%
Sorry to be the first 1 star rating but I just couldn’t get into this story. I like H’s who are alpha hot and h’s who are more feisty, snarky, and kickass —- the MC’s of this book, sadly, are not any of those qualities.

A must read and loved this story! It just sucked me in from the start and I couldn't put it down. A great addition to the books based around the small town of Tarker's Hollow. Who doesn't love a sexy and hot doctor that wants to devote his life to you?
November 29, 2019
Ryan and Addison have skirted around each other since her friends met their mates. A scheme to trick his ailing grandmother has them spending more time together. Liked this one as much as others. Editing has gotten better (still not perfect though).

I just love Tarkers Hollow and all the people/creatures which live there! I can't wait for the fourth book of this series.

I always enjoy stepping back to Tarker's Hollow. Dr. Ryan and Addison try to fight their bond but they can't fight fate. I just love all the characters. I can't wait to read what happens next.

These new pairs are very good at misunderstandings, you'd think they'd learn from one another. ;)
