WOLF'S DESIRE by Ambrielle Kirk




Wolf's Desire

Author:   Ambrielle Kirk
Series:  CAEDMON WOLVES, Book 4
Genre:  Paranormal romance/interracial

Available at:  Amazon | B&N | ARe

When Keira becomes a widow, she realizes that the life she once had wasn’t normal after all. After her husband is brutally murdered, she is more than just alone but vulnerable to threats and tangled in a web of greed. Her decisions lead her into a corner, and safety is jeopardized.

 Aiden, Caedmon Council member, has never failed when it comes to fulfilling the terms of his employment contract. When he is hired to protect
an heiress, he doesn’t plan on her being the only woman to bring both challenge and purpose in his life. Without hesitation, he vows to keep the grieving Keira safe—even from himself.

Keira trusts Aiden unconditionally and finds joy whenever they are together, but can love transcend a tragedy? Aiden’s urge to protect her is just as great as his desire to claim her. Once the passion is unleashed and fueled by the need to have all of her, the wolf will accept nothing less than his mate.



Keira Ellis wants justice for her husband’s murder.  She knows what she saw the night he was murdered, one man and one wolf, but no one will believe her.  When her husband’s lawyers come to her to tell her that his case has been closed and that his murderer has been found dead, she knows at least one murderer or beast is still at large. Deciding to investigate his case herself, she decides that hiring a bodyguard may be in her best interest.

Aiden Price thinks he has just worked his last job as a bodyguard and is looking forward to his life of retirement and being able to concentrate on pack business, but when he receives a phone call requesting his services one more time he finds it too intriguing to resist. When he arrives at the Ellis estate he wants to get right down to business and get a feel for the property and the house so he wants to be taken to meet Keira right away. Within feet of meeting her he catches her scent and realizes this job may have just taken on a complication he wasn’t expecting, Keira Ellis is his mate.

This is the first book by Ambrielle that I have read, and even though it is the 4th in the series, it reads quite well as a standalone. It was a very enjoyable read that sucked me in from the beginning, but about half way through the editing seemed to decline a bit, not really enough to be a distraction but was very noticeable. I also feel that the story started to get a bit rushed at about the half way mark. I really enjoyed the characters and would have loved to have had just… more.

All in all I would give Wolf’s Desire 4 out of 5 stars
