Product Description |
|
Hes a shape-shifting wolf, shes a psychic and his other half. In order to catch a killer he has to rely on his Seeing Eye Mate. Caelan Graham is on the hunt for a shape-shifter bent on killing female mates. As Prime, its Caelans duty to protect his entire pack, so its a good thing he doesnt have a mate of his own to look after right now. Too bad the most alluring female has just walked past his nose. As a clairvoyant, Tieran Jones has given up on men and their lack of understanding her giftuntil Caelan. The man ignites her passion, sets off a vision of a gruesome wolf attack, then shows up in her bed. In wolf form. To top it all off, he keeps insisting shes his mate. When the attacks continue, Tierans visions evolve and point in one direction. Caelans twin brother. With a lack of physical evidence, Caelan must depend on Tierans sight for clues. An act making her a prime target. Warning, this title contains the following: explicit sex, graphic language, and violence. |

The sex was hot, but the story was not |
Nothing like a hot though reluctant Alpha male, to get the heart pumping. Some good sex scenes, but the story wasn't strong enough...which leads me to the author, and the development (i.e. foundation) of this story. There wasn't enough of it, or it was intentionally written to be a fairly light read.
If you want to read some hot sex scenes, and aren't as concerned about a story with a lot of depth, read it...if not, pass it.
Better werewolf authors, Keri Arthur, Patricia Briggs. |

Seeing a failure |
|
Can you say "dissapointing"? I can. This was a wonderful story that went no where. I missed the romance development between the main characters. Looking, wanting and jumping into bed doesn't get it for me. Crude language was used profusely. I did not finish the book and did not pass it along to my friends. |

Seeing Eye Mate |
The mates of shape shifters are being brutalized and murdered in and around Prime Caelan Graham's territory. Unable to detect any scent of the killer, Caelan and his twin Eli are at a dead end in their investigation. It is while they are at a bar discussing the case and Cael's need to let off some sexual energy that Eli first notices the woman who just walked in. It is while Eli is making plans to meet the woman that Cael first detects her scent and every hormone he has in his body starts to tingle. Cael's wolf has finally found his mate and it is only a matter of time before she is lying replete beneath him.
Tiernan Jones' car has mysteriously broken down and she decides to wait for the tow truck in the bar across the street. Instantly, Tiernan feels that she is being stared at and looks around for the source. She finds it alright, but almost thinks she is dreaming. There are two gorgeous men staring at her like she just might be dinner. Finally the tow truck shows up but the operator is smarmy and Tiernan just is not comfortable. Unable to bring herself to accept a ride from Mr. Scary, Tiernan is surprised and secretly relieved when one of the men from the bar shows up. After introductions are made, Tiernan's car decides to cooperate and she drives away. She doesn't have a clue that she just drove away from her destiny.
Caelan hunts for and finally finds Tiernan a few days later and shows up at her house. While she might be surprised at his audacity, she is surprised more at her own body's reaction to Caelan's nearness and scent. Hormones kick in and Tiernan is lost in the wonder that is Caelan. Add to the picture a dead grandmother who talks to Tiernan in her head and the fact that Tiernan is having visions, the road ahead of Caelan and Tiernan is going to be rocky, especially when Tiernan's visions implicate Caelan's twin as the mate murderer.
Seeing Eye Mate is brilliant. Annmarie McKenna has woven a tale of suspense, intrigue, delicious naughtiness, with a bit of comedy thrown in for good measure. Caelan's primordial instincts were a sight to behold and I found myself almost jealous of Tiernan. Alas, Caelan was not mine to keep as he only had eyes for his mate. Tiernan is strong, sexy, and I found myself laughing out loud at her conversations with her grandmother.
Seeing Eye Mate kept me turning the pages and I couldn't put it down until I read the final word. Just when I thought I had the storyline figured out, I realized I was wrong. I love when an author can keep me from guessing the plot and Annmarie McKenna did just that very thing, much to my chagrin. I have happily placed Seeing Eye Mate on my keeper shelf and have decided that Annmarie McKenna is one author I want to keep reading!

GREAT! |
|
Tieran is strong, capable, and a great match for Alpha male and Prime of the pack. Great start on a great series. Can't wait to read the rest. |

Wasn't that thrilled |
|
I thought I'd like this book, liking many in this genre, but was disappointed. It's not very well written and didn't hold my interest. |
