Fighting Instinct (LAnge, #2)

Posted on 21 July 2017 by Mary Calmes

Only a privileged few know L Ange s head of security Arman de Soto is a shifter, and even fewer know he s been systematically killing off a pack of werewolves The reason for this vengeance is a secret Arman trusts with no one, quite the opposite of his obvious longtime pursuit of the ch teau s overseer, Linus Hobbes Despite Arman s reputation as a loner, the only thing he needs to complete his life is Linus Predator and prey just don t mix but Arman won t give him up Linus has lived alone for than seven years, sheltered at L Ange under an assumed name and hiding secrets of his own, including his terrifying attraction to the most dangerous man he s ever met Arman knows Linus should be afraid of the predator stalking him, but Linus is still drawn to him like a moth to a flame, no matter how much he tries to deny his instincts It s not until Linus s past and Arman s crusade exposes their secrets and opens L Ange to attack that Arman realizes waiting any longer is a risk he just can t take So he ll have to take his quest to the source of the threat in a gamble to protect L Ange, Linus, and any future they might have together.

Mary Calmes goes way too over the top This is one of those times.Spoilers below.This review is going to be a collection of gifs Partly because I m feeling lazy But mostly because I came across a Buzzfeed article about the Real Housewives Even though I ve never seen any version of that show, that article is gif gold First, my feelings regarding Arman Seriously, the dude needs help And so does

worlds, featuring richly complex and wholly original shifter lore, while also keeping true to all the fun, sexy, and possessive tropes that I enjoy so much when reading shifter themed romances If you re looking for all the delicious mating and claiming and MINE moments, then look no further, because the L Ange series has it all in abundance As is Calmes way 4 StarsA Mary Calmes shifter story is my

Ange series has it all in abundance As is Calmes way, there seems to be a million things going on at once, keeping the story fast paced and completely riveting from start to finish It doesn t really matter that a lot of what is going on is pure madness and largely nonsensical part of the fun of reading a story by Calmes is in knowing that the characters are half mad even the ones you like , and that the happenings so, so many happenings w...3.5 StarsI ve got to give credit to Calmes She definitely keeps things interesting when she writes about her shifters, bringing all sorts of new dynamics, new types of animals, and new cultures, lore and legends.Still strongly connected with MC s Roman and Quade from Old Loyalty, New Love, this book expands on two prominent side characters Linus has been through a seriously awful betrayal, one that cost him his family and nearly his very life When he s given the opportunity to find sanctuary 3.5 StarsI ve got to give credit to Calmes
