“Wolf Hearts Panther” is a heart-melting emotional roller-coaster romance. A read that had me tearing up smiling and cheering at the awesome conclusion.
Mandy and Griffin were carefree high school sweethearts until he left town to fulfill his rock star dream. She tries to convince Griffin they belong together after tracking him down at one of his touring concerts. That was six years ago when a night of flaming passion left Mandy carrying his child. A secret she has kept private because he no longer wanted her in his life.. Suffering from exhaustion, Griffin comes back to his hometown Heartland. Regrets have him yearning for a third chance to gain the trust of the woman who holds his heart. Mandy’s pent up anger escalates when Griffin learns he has a son. Protecting her son and heart has Griffin brainstorming plans to make them a forever family.
Fabulous well-written read with admirable characters that come alive with colorful personas. Daniel, their son, is a crowd-pleaser. The chemistry between Griffin and Mandy rings true. Griffin proves himself to be a worthy mate and father. The author shows that true love forgives. I adored this captivating romance. (On a volunteer basis, I chose to review a pre-published E-copy via the author.)
Overall rating: 4.5
The perfect read for those that crave rock star romances. The general premise of rock star romances run along the same lines…they mess up and almost lose the best thing to cross their paths, so reading these are always an exercise in experiencing an authors creativity and imagination. This author does a stellar job of making these characters feel real and engaging a readers emotions through the rockstars redemption. Needless to say, the hot and steamy scenes are also well placed and not just written for shock value. All my reviews are always voluntarily written.
I was absolutely taken with the way this author
wrote about the journey of Mandy and Griffin relationship.
Its a second chance plot that leaves you feeling good.
To find out what happens in these relationship you will have
to read the book for yourself.
Be warned there’s a absolutely little darling who is there son.
I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.
This was book #3 in this series and was just as well written as the first two!
Possible SPOILERS

With years of hurt & secrets between Mandy and Griffin…things are not going to be easy for either of them…
Mandy finally tells Griffin but he is pissed! Maybe with time they will sort out everything unfortunately the pair is running out of time
Mandy and Griffin were high school sweethearts. She encouraged his dream of becoming a famous musician. He made it. Left town and her and became his dream. Trying one more time years later, Mandy woke up alone and pregnant. Since he’d made it clear he wasn’t interested in a committed future she left and raised her son as a single parent with the help of the wonderful people in the shifter town.
Griffen returns to the town he loves and the women he can’t forget. Will the secret draw them closer or tear them apart?
This is a touching story with an adorable little boy no one could ignore. I like that they had to work through their problems created on both sides. This is my favorite story in the series so far.
A nice story with some sweet moments. Love the shifter town and of course, love shifters! I’m not a huge fan of rock stars or secret baby storylines, but the story is entertaining. Griffin and Mandy were high school sweethearts, but Griffin broke up with her to follow his rock star dreams. He becomes a big star and never looks back; this story starts 12 years later, but there was a moment 6 years back between them. Griffin treated Mandy horribly in the past and he has a lot to make up for. I liked their connection, but I wish being mates meant more than we read about here. They can easily stay away from each other for years and they don’t have to be loyal, so yeah, not my favorite scenario. I went 3 stars because I gave the last book 4 stars and liked that one a bit better, so I went a star less here. Still really enjoyed the story though and am loving this series. Book 1 got a 5 star!

This story of shifter town is absolutely phenomenal. Definitely a Must Read!
Mandy is a WolfShifter that works in the diner, her life was hard as she raised her son alone but she loved that little boy so much it was worth it. His daddy was clueless to having a son, that’s the way Mandy liked it. Besides he was the one that rejected her. So basically he gave up his rights, right?
Griffin Talbot is a Panther Shifter whose music career took him up to the top but he’s burnt out and goes home to the Heartland. Only to realize he needed a second chance but can he trust again?
This review is my own opinion, this author is one that I love to read her books, I could feel the desire, the fear of trusting again and hope that my decision is right.
Awwww… a sweet but tough as nails second, or is it third, chance romance. Mandy and Griffin were high school sweethearts. The bright lights of a music career tore them apart the first time. Then there was a night at one of his concerts…again he left. Now he is home. Mandy does not want to open her heart to Griffin a third time, especially now that it is not just her heart on the line. Doesn’t she know the third time is the charm?? I loved the back and forth between these two. They have to move past their distrust of each other in order to truly live.
