Thirty and single? Getcha ass to the Gathering!

Ugh. Gabriella Wickham thought turning thirty was bad enough, but now she’s been invited (ordered) to attend this year’s Gathering (werewolf speed dating). Having a Mark on her arm means that she’s one of the few human women destined to mate with not one, but two Alpha werewolves. Thank goodness werewolves don’t come in “ugly.” After her sister Scarlet mates the Ruling Alphas, things really start to get interesting. Gabby runs into not one, but two hotter than hot werewolves who make her tingle in all the right places. Yum. Of course, “yum” comes with baggage of both the mental and female kind. Lovely. Luckily it’s nothing a few punches and a good talking to can’t cure. Maybe…-ish.

Berke Davis and Jack Wright know that lush, curvaceous Gabriella is their mate. Who cares that they’re currently not part of an Alpha pair? Details, details. Burke has been half bound to his best friend Jack since they were four, but the past keeps them from solidifying their pairing and taking up the mantle of Alpha. Berke understands his friend’s feelings, but Jack is about to get a lesson on living and loving. Berke just hopes the lessons are learned before they both lose Gabriella. Especially when she is Challenged by a rival to first blood…a Challenge that could end in very permanent, and deadly, consequences…for Gabriella.

If you would have asked me if I thought I could love this book more than book one I would have said no! But Author Celia Kyle did it again! This book rivals book one with the hilarious one-liners and snarkiness. I was in tears yet again! Gabriella has brains to back up her snarky bad self.

One of my favorite things about this series is that all the ladies are not size twos. They are average woman with all the insecurities that go along with them.

Gabriella Wickham is pissed she was summoned to the gathering and was equally pissed when one of her Alpha males rejects her. I mean how dare him! This girl is pure awesomeness. Gabriella is already a little insecure do to her weight and rejection does not help. I loved that both guys put her at ease and did not let her hide from them.

Gabriella learns quickly that there is more than meets the eyes with Berke Davis and Jack Wright besides being edible. And just when this witty woman thinks things cannot get any worse she is challenged by a female wolf to be Berke’s mate! I was freaking out for her. Luckily her boys pull their heads out and give her pointers. Nothing like the thought of losing your mate to rein you in. And let me tell you. This fight scene had me laughing so stinking hard. Gabriella is crazy. Stop drop and roll baby!

Let’s talk about the boys shall we, Berke Davis has always thought about wanting a mate to help is best friend and his alpha partner Jack realize there can be love and a balance to power. Berke is sexy and controlling in all the right ways ladies. I just loved this man! Even if he was a man-whore… or wolf-whore you might say.

Jack is broken and needs Gabriella’s love to help heal his heart if he lets her in. This man had me growling at him. Being sexy as hell does not give you the right to be an ass. And when I learned about his past I wanted to grab him and give him a monster hug and just love him. He deserves to be an ass sometimes.

Okay, I cannot leave my girl Scarlet out of this review. She had one-liners to spare in this book as well.

“Lemme ask you something: I am the ruler of the vagina, right? Queen of the Vaginaville, home of the platinum plated hoo-ha. So, how does it feel to have your passport revoked?”

I want to use the line one day! And I will! I just know it!
