I expected my downfall to be a wolf shifter. I didn’t expect her to be a kid. The Silent Butchers are trying to go straight. At least my chapter is. Still, life in the MC means trouble. It’s unpredictable and full of surprises, but none compare to my newest challenge.A little girl was dropped on my doorstep. I’m told she’s mine–but I don’t know the first thing about being a father. My only hope … being a father.
My only hope is enlisting the help of Paige–a woman who understands her, a woman who knows how to deal with her.
There’s no question Paige is my mate, or that she hates me. But before I can convince her that she’s meant to be mine, I’ll have to prove I’m not the man she thinks I am.
If I don’t hurry, I’ll lose them both.
While the series has an overarching storyline, this book can be read as a standalone. Expect steamy shifter romance, edge-of-your-seat action, scorching love scenes, and a happily ever after.

Jett Paige and Evie
Nothing like a hot guy and cute kid to make a curvy woman happy. Or readers of a Keira Blackwood story about all three. –Prepare to be happy–
Jett had plenty on his mind after the meeting he’d just had with one of the baddest of the bad. Now he had to report to the MC club prez/pack alpha. The news wasn’t good. Wasn’t necessarily bad and he had to try to explain. Little did he expect to find a little girl hiding behind one of his club brother’s back who was supposed to be his. She’d been dropped off and left with a toy and a backpack. He didn’t know what to do, where she came from, and who was her mother? Was she really his? As much as he didn’t know, he did know that ice cream and kids worked.
Paige had writer’s block. She needed to get her article out. A visit with Evelyn always helped. When she arrived to find out her grandmother was in rehab with a severe injury and her sister had dropped Evie off at her father’s clubhouse. Change of plans! Go get her best friend’s daughter. She’d promised herself that she’d make sure she’d be taken care of after her friend’s death. What she didn’t expect find was her mate. Was he really the awful man she’d been told about? Even if he wasn’t how much danger did the club put Evie and her in?
This is sometimes touching, sometimes funny, steamy hot, with action and romance. I loved all the characters and combining Shifters with an MC—oh yeah, I’m in. Enjoy.
SCOUNDREL is the fifth book in the Protectors of the Pack series. So the first question was could it stand alone. I was assured it could and I can assure you in turn that this is true.
On the other hand, there were many places where it felt that more answers could have been provided. Just one example, Paige’s past in Frozen Peaks – is this a coincidence or something more? Why bring it up?
As for Jett, Evie, and Paige – be still my heart. With every moment they spent together I fell more in love with each of them.
The story was often heart melting, sometimes funny, partially romantic, and laced with MC drama and raw sexuality. In other words, it was a great combination of fun and edge-of-my-seat action, which is just how I like my shifters, dads, and families.

Loved the book it was great the story was well written and the characters were interesting. Jett has a problem, someone dropped a little girl at his front door and does not know the fist thing about babies. Jett believes Paige is his mate, so what better way to get closer to her and also show Paige that he is different to what she thought, so does Paige help with the little girl.

I enjoyed reading this book , it has a great storyline, it is filled with action, adventure and intrigue. The interaction and chemistry between the characters is wonderful. I can’t wait for more from this author. I received this book as a FREE ARC copy to read and I voluntarily leave this review.
I quite enjoyed reading this book. The story about a man, who suddenly realizes he has a daughter and tries to give her a better life, was a wonderful surprise. There are other surprises that came along the way, but not wanting to spoil this wonderful book for anyone else, I’ll keep quiet about the finer details.
My only gripe is that I wish the book was longer….I’m not ready to say goodbye to the characters yet. I really hope that they will show up in future books, so that I can see how their home life has changed over time.
Great writing, storyline kept me entertained from start to finish and I am eager to read more books from this wonderful author.
