Paranormal Romance Series to Watch Out For!

This series features a total of 8 books, with each book featuring a tale about a different couple. They can be read either as a standalone or in a particular order to get a better understanding of the story and character interaction. 

It begins with a wolf-shifter named Taryn Warner who is caught up in a confusing situation as her father has arranged for a forced mating ritual which she is trying to figure a way out of. On the other hand, is Trey Coleman who faces a similar dilemma. He is being forced into mating with an alpha female (Taryn) by his uncle who also wants him to force alliances with other packs in order to take over Trey territory. 

Since neither Trey nor Taryn are remotely interested in mating with one another, they strike a deal to get out of this dilemma, but soon enough, they are unable to resist each other’s company and although they thought their plan was effective and airtight, they find it hard to control their mating instinct. 

The later books in the series feature Dante, the Beta of the pack who is sweet and sexy but also controlling who hungers for Jaime the playful wild child who is playing hard to get with him. Trey and Taryn from the first book also make a cameo. 

If you enjoy fast paced, intense and engaging stories with loads of drama, steamy graphic ménage scenes, then this one’s for you. 

About the Author

She’s an avid reader, animal lover and writes romance novels with a touch of fantasy, with a sprinkling of dark arts infused with vampires and wolves. She began her journey as a self-published author with great difficulty before settling in on Amazon’s Kindle Direct Publishing site which allowed her to retain full creative control of her transcripts and drafts, let her work on her own schedule and she also acted as her own editor and creative director.

She is also planning to expand her repertoire to include traditional romance novels and as of July 1, was ranked on Amazon’s top 25 paranormal romance charts.

This series revolves around a band of ancient vampire warriors in modern day New York who are the last of their kind and have to defend their race against those who are against them and seek to destroy it.

About the Author

JR Ward is a pseudonym used by Jessica Bird who is the author of over 20 novels and has made it to the #1 New York Times and US Today Bestseller series with more than 15 million copies of her novels in print worldwide. Ward spent many years as Chief of Staff of a premier medical centre in Boston after graduating with a law degree before writing became her passion. 

This series includes 12 books and a spin-off called ‘Realm Enforcers’. It puts a twist on the standard vampire stories and features shapeshifters, witches and demons. 

The spin-off ‘Realm Enforcers’ series revolves around the Dunne family of witches set in the same world as ‘Dark Protectors’ and even features character crossovers. I highly recommend reading the ‘Dark Protectors’ series first in order to understand the world building and its inhabitants. 

Each book in the series features interesting characters such as Cara Paulsen the relentless scientist and single mum on a quest to protect her daughter Jamie from a mysterious 300-year-old vampire named Talen who says he is there to protect them but might have an ulterior motive as well as the daring scientist Emma Paulsen (who is also a psychic) who is rescued from the clutches of the bloodthirsty and evil Kurjans by a kind-hearted vampire who will stop at nothing to protect Emma. The Kurjans also make an appearance later in the series as they kidnap Maggie the wolf-shifter who is rescued by a Scottish wolf shifter, Terrent. 

This series has been described by critics as smart, intense, sexy and swooningly romantic and each book is its own individual story with overarching story arcs developing across all the books.
