Between caring for his shifter war brothers at the VA, being a single dad, and his duties with the elite Special Ops Shifter Force, Dr. Drake Sheridan has his hands full. Being called away to covertly diffuse the most complex issues amongst clans—ones that even the shifter conclave can’t handle—can be tough, but this Special Forces Medical Sergeant is always up for the challenge. When he gets a … a call about an Alpha who’s supposedly been brainwashed by her three mates, Drake knows he has to step in.
Nikki’s triad of mates treats her like a queen—or so she thinks. She doesn’t see a problem in her Eureka, California bear clan, but her sister won’t stop telling her otherwise. When a newcomer named Drake shows up in town looking for a clan to join, Nikki knows he’s a good fit, but her inner bear goes berserk whenever he’s around. She’s already found her mates, so what’s going on with her bear?
As soon as he encounters Nikki, Drake’s bear craves to claim her as his. But his mate died in childbirth years ago; he still beats himself up for not being able to save her and never thought he’d love again. But the way his bear yearns for Nikki now has him thinking otherwise.
No matter what his bear wants, he’s in Eureka on a mission and won’t give up until he gets to the bottom of the mystery behind Nikki’s devious mates. He can’t let his heart get involved. Or can he?

Doctor Drake is one sexy bear!
Drake, the leader of the Special Ops Shifters, heads out from their DC headquarters to Eureka, California to follow up on a distress call from the local bear clan. Piper is worried that her sister, Nikki, is being unduly influenced by those whose motives are suspect.
This was an intense action romance, complete with fated mates and telepathic communication. Nikki is clearly in trouble, even if she can’t see it, and it takes quite a lot to untangle the web she’s trapped in. It’s a short novella, but does a fantastic job with memorable characters and a triumphant HEA. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
I loved these characters and this story. I wanted the best for Nikki and love Drake and his crew. This is full of intrigue and adventure. I worried and was surprised while listening and I wondered about the others in the special ops crew. I listened to this on audio and Stephen Bourne did a great job. His gruff voice was perfect as Drake and his crew.
I enjoyed Nikki and Drake’s story! It’s a fairly quick and addicting read. The narrator did a good job as well. Reading for all the characters was done with ease and consistency. The story is well written with twists, surprise, romance and mystery. Their bears are going nuts for each other. She already has mates so she is confused about her bears reaction to Drake. Drake is a single father who lost his mate and is on a mission for the Special Ops Shifter team. He is just as confused about his bear’s reaction to Nikki. Toss in a witch bent on revenge and three power hungry bears then you have a very intriguing and captivating story. I really enjoyed this story!!!
New book new series. Meg Ripley is great at writing shifter romance and this book is no exception to the rule.
Drake is part of the special ops team and is called on to investigate what is happening to Nikki a bear clan leader who has 3 so callled fated mates. Drake and Nikki are immediately drawn to one another but is doesn’t seem possible. And poor Piper Nikki’s sister well lets just say life for her isn’t easy. This book has lots of little interesting twists and turns a plot that thickens and well it does eventually have a happy ending.
ARC review/audible For honest review. This story is of the sos force getting a call by Piper about her alpha sister Nikki out in eureka California clave that something is wrong .so drake and father to lindy goes to check out what’s happening but when he gets there, there is more going on awesome story great audible .
Great book, really enjoyable.
Nikki already has three fated mates, but her sister thinks something is not quite right so she calls in the Shifter Special Ops to find out what’s going on.
When Dr Drake Sheridan goes in undercover he finds he’s attracted to Nikki, but he already lost his fated mate so how can be have another?
If you like shifters, magic, love stories and a little mystery thrown in then this is the book for you.
The book is well written and will keep you hooked to the end.
It is a fantastic read.

A Special Ops Bear? Ohh sign me up
I liked this book a lot. The characters and the scenario made it a good read. I loved Lindy but then again who wouldn’t. I loved the way the team pulled together even ones not part of the Special Ops pulled their weight.
Get comfy and enjoy
I am glad that even though Nikki was pushing Piper away Piper still called Drake in. Nikki’s “mates” we too much and I’m sad that because Nikki was under a spell she couldn’t see that. I wanted to cry about what happened to Piper. I am glad Drake and the team were able to help bring down Clint, Neal, Max and Raven.

Well worth reading!
The A-team of the shifter world…
I have read several books by this author but this one is sooo different from any of them. Don’t panic..it’s still a shifter story. It’s the story-line that’s the difference. One difference is the characters that make up the “Special Op’s” team. This A-Team of the shifter world contains several different shifters instead of focusing on one type like Ms. Ripley’s series usually do. I loved this. I will admit that I found myself “assigning” each character to a counterpart from the original A-Team series. Another difference is the actual mystery/suspense behind the story. This one is a little more in-depth and complex. Again, I loved it. I hope the rest of the series is the same way.

With three mates for Nikki, constant arguing with her sister and things within the clan not going her way, Nikki is t sure what’s going on. Drake is a member of a spec ops shifter team and goes in where there are problems. With escalating issues with Nikki’s clan, her sister calls in the spec ops team. Murder, magic and poisoning is all the order as Drake tries to find out what’s going on. Will Nikki survive all of this???? A great bunch of character with some witches thrown into the mix of shifters.

Great story. Not just canned shifter romance, but very original. Well written. I received a free review copy of the audio version of this book in exchange for an honest review.
This story is a good start to a great series. It introduced each character and their personalities. I was sitting on the edge of my chair when Nikki left the hotel.
