A status quo explosion puts Aubrey in charge of her shifter military team. She’s both capable and ready to tame the chaos.Until her team goes rogue.At the very worst moment, a tall, dark, and meowza-level hottie steps in. Oliver isn’t just there to watch her fail. He’s there to steal her brand spanking new job.He’s closed off and skeptical. He’s as infuriating as he is domineering, and he’s … domineering, and he’s totally strip-worthy.
And he wants to get naked.
It’s all in a day’s work. It’ll be fine, as long as Aubrey doesn’t look at him. As long as she doesn’t touch him. As long as they don’t get shot.
Survive the mission, and everything will go back to normal. Survive a gaze into Oliver’s disarming gray eyes, and she’ll deserve a promotion. Survive a taste of his lips…nope, there’s no turning back.

A surprise reorganization
If you are looking for a short intense read this is the perfect book for you. The author has once again created a hot alpha shifter who reluctantly finds his mate at the worst time. But who doesn’t love the action and excitement of a rouge hidden in the mix. I hope we get more HEAs from the author as I truly enjoy these hot little reads.

Just when Aubrey thinks shes finally stepping into the leadership role on her team after the former leader retires, hot lion shifter steps in to investigate her and her team after to failed last mission.
No matter how much he draws her, she’s not falling for him. Of course, her tiger might beg to differ. Can they find out what really happened and what is happening now when her team seems to be going off on their own disobeying orders? Will he trust her despite or because of their connection (not talking about professionally either)?
Another aptly named quick bite with all the features of a longer story but the digested version.
Things just aren’t adding up for Aubrey – her boss suddenly, unexpectedly retires – she’s been in training and expects to take over in her boss’ place until an outsider takes the position of the new commander. Aubrey isn’t impressed with Oliver walking into the job she’s worked so hard for yet her team is not listening to her, something is going on that makes no sense – and dang it, her cat (that little hussy) is convinced that Oliver is their mate. Oliver is taking over this particular unit as part of his undercover investigation into a rogue team, one that has truly gone bad. It’s his job to suspect everyone – including Aubrey, his mate – his lion isn’t all that thrilled with Oliver but until he knows what’s really going on it’s not easy for Oliver to just trust that Aubrey is not involved.
Aubrey comes into work to find out that her boss has retired and someone from the outside is getting his position. Oliver is being sent in undercover to investigate the team to find out who has been betraying the company which causes a loss of life in the last mission. What he didn’t count on was finding his mate on this mission but when he came into contact with Aubrey that’s exactly what he found. Aubrey doesn’t know what do about Oliver especially when they get caught and separated. Will Oliver find out who is betraying everyone? Can he and Aubrey finally be together?
This is an amazing story that will captivate you from beginning to ending. The chemistry between them is scorching hot. This is a well written and very entertaining story. I would recommend this book to any book lover.

Tactics and Tails by Keira Blackwood and Eva Knight is the sixth book in The Protectors Quick Bites series. In this book, Aubrey comes to work only to discover that her boss has retired after something went horribly wrong with one of their operative teams. However, the man named Oliver who is there to investigate the situation is incredible attractive and this pair of shifters that starts off at odds quickly find themselves working together to solve the mystery of what happened and who was involved. This book is a fun read with lots of exciting situations and humorous ones that had me gasping then laughing. I recommend this to anyone looking to read a wonderfully written paranormal romance. Tactics and Tails is an exciting and adventurous forever mate story.
It’s been a very bad week and weekend. It started with the loss of one of the team members and culminated in a flood, wrecked car from said flood and all her food ruined due to lack of electric.

Now the two are working together and Hale has to keep it together and try not to let anything or anyone come between him and his mission. Aubrey wants to ogle his tush. What should be a simple mission gets messy and complicated quickly.

Disclosure; I received a pre-published E-copy for which I am reviewing strictly on a volunteer basis.
“Tactics and Tails” is a quick entertaining read filled with spine-chilling suspense, action, mystery, humor, spicy romance, engaging characters and a happy forever.
Oliver and Aubrey meet under dire circumstances. His mission is to trust no one and find the rogue agents. What he doesn’t expect to find is his forever mate. Attraction sparks between them, but Oliver’s trust issues keep him at bay. Together they face a few dangerous obstacles before reaching their happy forever.
Oliver and Aubrey are great characters, and their chemistry rings true. I found this to be an enjoyable read.
Love these quick bite books. And especially big cat shifter romances. She finally gets what she wants but things are not all they seem to be. Then you have a hot alpha male there now watching your every move. And then the filling in the cake is your group is acting funny and not listening. She tries to stay away from him but her cat so I want him. Guess who wins. This is exciting, suspenseful, intriguing, dramatic and much more. I received a review copy and voluntarily review it.
TACTICS AND TAILS is the sixth book in the The Protectors, Quick Bites series.
First clue I was going to love this book – there is a lion on the cover, people!!
The mystery and investigation were great, but I felt like I was missing a bigger picture. Maybe this one did need more of the series?
Still, I fell in love with Aubrey and Oliver. Their attraction was undeniable and leapt off the page. Plus, a lion and a tiger are going to make cute little liger kittens someday!
Note: While I received this book as a gifted ARC via Booksprout, my opinions are my own and are given freely.

This is book six in the Protector Quick Bites Series. Aubrey was next in line to head the Magical Acquisition and Containment Team, but Oliver got the position and he was also an inquisitor. Both were shifter cats and it didn’t take long to figure out they were mates. Interesting story with strong characters. Good quick bites read!

A failed mission, a dead teammate, and finding your mate who doesnt trust easily but it’s his job not to trust only find the truth. A short story packed full of immediate action, adventure and too many pheromones. I loved the storyline and characters, Keira does a fan5job of bring to life a story in the descriptions and imagery. I could not put the story down.
