Wild Temptations is the first book in The Holbrook Brothers Shifters series! The series explores how three hot brothers became shifters, find love, and how it changes their life! This wonderfully-written wolf shifter story is one that I enjoyed very much reading and becoming acquainted with it’s wonderful characters. From the first chapter you get to see how close the brothers are and while they were camping celebrating Brighton’s accomplishments and thru their time at the hospital while Christopher. He is a small town sporting goods store owner who struggles after being bitten by a wolf in the cave and then Libby is a nurse who is treating him as he struggles with his change and what it does to his mind and body.
This book sets the stage well for sequels. There are a lot of questions left to be answered. Bloodlines, magic, packs, and a brewing war are things alluded to and I want to know the answers to. I look forward to reading the next story in this series.

This was an exceptionally well written read. The storyline grabbed me from page 1 and didn’t let go. The characters were wonderfully developed with interactions that helped to keep me engrossed. Their personalities had such great depth and just showed the talent that the author possesses. It was a great read, and I cant wait to see what’s next.

This story didn’t jump much, but the ending was great. We have Christian from Galena who is on a camping trip with his brothers. Libby is from Apple River where the boys are camping. Christina is brought into the hospital that Libby works at. There’s feelings that are unexplained, but when she brings him home it gets going even more. Can they find out what happened to Christian? Will these feelings go further?

I received an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review. I absolutely loved the book. The author did a great job developing the story line and the relationships between the characters. There were elements of family, love, loyalty, friendship and more
I loved how the author took the time to detail what Christian was going through.
I hope there will be more from this family!
Start of a new series and if this book is any indication it will be great
Christian and his brothers have headed out to the wilds on a fishing trip it is a bit of a tradition betwen them and his brothers. Early one morning Christian wakes early and heads out for a walk and finds a cave When he enters it he is attacked and bitten by a wolf which is really odd as wolves are extinct in the area. Rushed to hospital he meets Libby the nurse tasked with his care. Libby has her own problems her father disappeared when she was younger and her mother is wheel chair bound after a car accident. When Christian is ready for release from the hospital she offers her guest house for him to dray in. What neither realise is that Christian is changing his shifter DNA has been activated by the bite Will Libby get her answers will she handle Christian change and do they have a future together You will have to read to see
Libby and Christian start off with a great connection. I liked their relationship and thought this was a good start to a new series. I will be reading more books in this series.

Original shifter storyline and it is a lovely romance. Mild sex scenes.
Libby and her new patient Christian have an instant connection. Being mauled by a wolf was the best thing that ever happened to him.

I liked the way this story started out. Christian and his brothers are on a fishing trip in the forest. When he goes for a walk he is bitten by an injured wolf and taken to the emergency room. He is unconscious and highly feverish. Libby is a nurse at the hospital and was drawn to Christian from the minute he was brought in. She lost her father several years ago in the same forest fishing. She helps Christian during his rehab since he refuses to involve his brothers. I did love the way he got along with her mother and how close they got. Libby was the first person to see his wolf (aside from his mentor). Christian needs to know what the changes in his body are, how to control them and just how to live with it. Their love story is full of strange, but wonderful happenings. I requested an advanced reader copy from Booksprout and am under no obligation to leave this review.
This is the first book in The Holbrook Brothers Shifters series. It can be read as a stand-alone book and does not contain a cliff hanger.
This book is easy to read and enjoyable. Libby and Christian become infatuated from the moment each sees the other. Their friends and families also see how good they are for each other and do not provide any push back on the relationship. This reduced my enjoyment of the book.
Libby is very forthright with Christian; however, Christian keeps secrets from Libby which later endangers her. Neither of them mention this, which I found distracting. I hope the future books in this series will contain some more complexity.

A fantastic read by Renee Carr. The characters in this book are well defined and make the story enjoyable. I love the heroine, Libby, the caretaker, the nurse and lover. Christian is the hero, big brother, protector and lover. These two light up the sheets, but each have questions that need answers before moving forward. Libby lost her father when she was young. He went out one day to the woods and disappeared. Her mother in her grief had a horrible accident that has left her confined in a wheelchair. When looking at the woods, Libby feels she is being watched by yellow eyes. I loved the fact the hero had no idea he had shifter blood in his DNA, but after being bitten by a wolf and after a stay in the hospital, he soon learns of his fate. Will Libby and Christian find the answers and will there be a HEA for everyone?

This is a NON-SPOILER REVIEW. Wild Temptations by Renee Carr is the first book in the Holbrook Brothers Shifters series. This is my first Renee Carr read. Let me start by saying that this read begins a little slow, but Don’t Stop Reading! When the story catches, it blossoms and takes on a life of it’s own. I loved the family connection between the brothers and found that the characters really were well developed. While the focus centers on Christian and Libby, there is a strong secondary issue… becoming shifters. An interesting read that opens up the thought process for book 2.
This honest and voluntary review was made possible by reading a copy through Booksprout.
Libby’s life is nursing either at the hospital or at home with her mom. Christian loves his family and the outdoors. While hiking he experiences something strange. The book is ok but very simplistic. The characters are interesting and I would like to know what happens to them in the future.

Do not give up on this book from the first two chapters! The author takes the time to provide a decent backstory for all of the main characters at the beginning instead of spreading it throughout the book. This truly sets the stage so that you understand the motivation of each of the characters. Christian and Libby are really relatable and therefore frustrating as all get out at times. Overall, I yelled and truly enjoyed reading this book. Would be ideal for a quiet rainy day.

Christian goes on a camping trip with his brothers. He ends up finding a cave and getting bit by a wolf. He wakes up in the hospital where Libby is taking care of him. Libby and Christian fall in love and she’s even seen him turn into a wolf. The story was well written and had a very interesting concept. I liked it. Looking for to what happens to his brothers.
