Synopsis:
Lara
has always relished being a thorn in Mason’s paw. When she was chosen as pride
Enforcer, it was easier than ever to get under the passionate shifter’s skin.
But with the scent of humans in the air comes a threat she’s powerless to
battle alone.
It’s time Lara unites with the one man she needs, the one man she’s secretly drawn to…as if by fate.
If there’s one thing Mason hates more than relinquishing control to a female, it’s the attraction he feels for the fiery lioness. Joining forces with Lara against an insidious enemy only makes their primal bond hotter—and the two of them stronger.
Now it’s up to them, side by side, to bring together three warring shifter clans, win the final fight and save Deep Creek.

Book 4 of the Shifter Wars series has a fast-moving plot with the antagonism between Mason and Lara keeping it lively. This back and forth combative dialog at times made me a tad crazy because I kept wanting to sit them down and talk to them about getting along.
Mason was an Alpha but most times I felt like Lara was more Alpha than him. It is obvious to this reader that one should not prejudge the characters because by the end of the book the what fors and whys to their behavior are answered in a believable manner.
Lara for me was a female character that I would have problems with in real life because I felt she had a chip on her shoulder and her manner of doing things felt self-involved. Later in the book I appreciated her take charge attitude and her softening of character continued to show a female leader I would admire.
This is an entertaining read and I recommend it to readers who enjoy paranormal romance. I rate this 3.75 STARS.

Claiming His Lioness Excerpt
Copyright © 2018 Kerry Adrienne
The birds and night animals were active all around them.
Though her hearing wasn’t as sensitive as when she moved as a shifter, she
still heard them. Scampers and calls to evening plans—all clear to her lioness,
who paced inside, longing to get out and run. Lara shushed her, placating her
with a promised run later. With summer starting, there’d be plenty of late
night runs in the moonlight to the cadence of all the insects and heartbeats in
the forest.
A nice fat rabbit sounded perfect for dinner.
Mason motioned her to crouch and she did, crawling up close to him in the brush. She could smell him. Warm, with a streak of fierceness, like a juicy steak with a hint of tangy sauce. A spice she couldn’t name and a scent so intoxicating, she had to move back a bit. She’d been near him too much today. She sniffed again, and he turned and shot her a smile.
She looked away.
What the hell was wrong with her? She wasn’t one to go around sniffing men. She shook her head. I’m just hungry, that’s all.
Mason grabbed her arm. She looked where he was pointing and inhaled sharply. Through the bushes, a short distance away, a smattering of tiny campfires blazed. And tents cast hulking shadows across the lakeshore.
Where were the humans?
The low sound of muffled voices grew louder and Lara strained to hear what was going on. A group of humans—male and at least one female—made their way to the edge of one fire, their faces alight with the bright glow.
They looked happy. None appeared to be armed but why were
there so many of them? The lake was remote—how could they have gotten all the
equipment so deep into the woods—unless they’d had pack mules.
And why were they at the lake?
Mason’s face mirrored her concerns, his brows slanted and his skin drawn tight. His mouth a firm line. Lara watched him a minute, noting his slightly curved nose—the bump was the only way she could easily tell Marco and Mason apart unless they were talking. Somehow, the imperfection made him even more handsome than his brother.
She looked back at the humans standing around the fire like
an army at ease, but aware battle was coming. Most looked out of place—not like
seasoned hikers or hunters. More like businessmen without their suits, forced into
jeans and T-shirts and shoes they only wore once or twice a year or maybe
bought for the outing.
Stranger and stranger.
A large man glanced their way, spotted then, then rushed toward where they crouched. Bile filled Lara’s mouth and her lioness screamed run, but she froze in place. Several other men followed the leader, and within seconds, she and Mason were surrounded by humans.
