She thought she could run from her mate. Then he lassoed her.Riley decided years ago that she would be better off on her own, but when the alpha of the local pack finds out there’s a lone wolf causing trouble on his turf he takes matters into his own hands.As far as Cameron Nichols is concerned, Riley will be joining his pack whether she likes it or not. Her only choice will be whether to submit … will be whether to submit to his authority with or without needing to be stripped bare and spanked over his knee until she is kicking and crying and promising obedience. When she chooses the latter, the Navy SEAL turned cowboy is more than happy to oblige.
But Cameron knows instantly that Riley isn’t just a feisty female in need of an alpha’s firm hand. She is his mate, and she knows it too, despite her best efforts to deny it. No matter how many times she tries to run, he will always chase her down, punish her thoroughly, and then mount and claim her so roughly that all she can do is scream her helpless, shamefully intense pleasure into the pillow as her body betrays her and surrenders ever more completely to his demands.

First of all, let me tell you that I love this series! The women are so strong and the men are wonderful overprotective asses! Riley and Cam are no different.
Riley has run from her pack so that she can have her own life. She spends time with Bae Diogel and Skylar before they are disbanded. Riley rescues the women that are being stolen and abused by the clans that don’t have mates. She is found by Cam and he realizes that she is his fated mate. Riley doesn’t disagree, she just doesn’t want to be mated. She wants to continue her mission. She escapes before he is able to mate her and that is the start of their game of cat and mouse.
I loved this story, as I have loved all the stories in this series. I rejoice with the women when they defy their men, who are overprotective and overbearing. But, I still like them. I can’t wait for the final book to come out! I give this book 5 stars. I would give more if I could!
Excellent storyline, well written, full of action and keeps hour attention. This is a continuation if the series and involves Riley and Cameron being fated mates. Riley had been working on her own to free females who have been kidnapped and used as breeders. Along the way she meets Cameron and from there the story gets heated. The sexual interaction between the two of them is very erotic and well written. There is a HEA for them but the series continues with the packs trying to bring down those who are kidnapping the women. I would highly recommend this book as a great read, you will not be disappointed.
Delta does it again. Gives us another wonderful story in the Fated Mates series. Every one is better and that’s not easy because every one is great.
So, we have a “kinda, sorta” cliffhanger. I don’t know if it has been a while since I read one of the Wayward Mates books, or if it really seemed as though Riley fought longer and harder against being claimed then anyone else.
Cam and Riley have this intense chemistry. There is plenty of snark, anger, love, and humor. There is love and loyalty to the pack. There are a ton of pig headed, over protective dominant men. There are also submission, spanking, and detailed sexual scenes. If any of this offends you, pass on this book.
As much as this book was about Cam and Riley being fated mates, it had more content about saving women taken against their will, from the rogue packs. With each book, you get more information about the Coalition’s fight. You also get more info regarding how the women of the Coalition are tough, strong, brave, smart, and independent. How they bring their many talents to their individual packs, and to the Coalition as a whole.
After many starts, stops, and chases, Riley and Cameron do get their HEA. The ladies of the Coalition are moving to action. We just have to wait until the next book to see how the plan and subsequent action takes place.
So, bottom line: Cam and Riley – Standalone. The Coalition’s continued activity to dismantle the rogue wolves trafficking – Continuation of Cliffhanger. Your choice.
I voluntarily read and reviewed the Advanced Reader Copy of this book.

I listened to the audiobook and thought the narration was good. Although I felt the plight of the women Riley was trying to save, it seemed like it hit stronger in the audio version. Also, the intimacy between Cam and Riley seemed stronger.
Riley and Cameron are fated mates. She’s in denial about this to a degree, due to her independent spirit and her rescue work. Good book, well written.
