My Rating: Five Sexy Sweet Stars*****
Oh my! Oh my! Oh my! The Master Shark's Mate is Zoe Chant at the top of her game and a fabulous addition to Chant's popular Fire and Rescue Shifters Series. Quite unlike most paranormal romance, this captivating love story features a more mature couple, lovely coyote shifter and dedicated alpha of the Arizona Ochre Rock Pack Martha Hernandez and megalodon shark shifter Master Shark, once a king, now Voice of the Pearl Empress of Atlantis, and ruler of all sharks in all the seas. Nita and Master Shark are an older hero and heroine, or what I like to call a more experienced couple who still have a whole lot of pep in their step. lol... The Master Shark's Mate is a riveting tale with the perfect blend of imaginative fantasy, spellbinding magic, unique endearing characters, laugh-out-loud humor, thrilling adventure, agonizing angst, sultry seduction, fiery passion, and heart-melting romance - Shifting Sands Resort style! That's right! This book is an ingenious combination of two of Chant's most popular series, the Shifting Sands Resort and Fire & Rescue Shifters. I snickered, snorted, and sniffled through the entire story and loved every single minute, but by the end, I was happy, satisfied and well entertained. But let's talk a few details.
The Master Shark's Mate is an exceptionally well-crafted, fast-paced, easy-to-follow, stand-alone, novella length paranormal romance. The narrative is beautifully written in the third person with clearly distinguishable his and her perspectives. The dialogue is smart, entertaining, well executed and flows effortlessly. I've loved the entire Fire and Rescue Shifter series but the Master Shark's Mate is, hands down, my all-time favorite! I was totally smitten with the gruff, commanding, often antagonistic, and always misunderstood Master Shark when he was first introduced in Firefighter Sea Dragon and was beyond thrilled to learn he was being a book of his own. And alpha coyote shifter Martha Hernandez was an absolute delight! Of course, it may have something to do with the fact that I felt an immediate camaraderie with Martha because she's so much like me - a hot, sexy grandma! lol.. At first glance, one would think an ocean water shifter and a desert land shifter would never work together but they make a perfect couple, complementing each other brilliantly, just like peas and carrots! This pair of unlikely lovers literally exploded from the pages, demanded my undivided attention, and completely captured my heart. And OMG, we even discover Master Shark has a name, but I'll never tell - you'll just have to read the book.
No spoilers from me but I will say this... A dangerous highly feared megalodon shark shifter who is forced to take a vacation by his empress and finds something he never knew he needed until now-check! A loyal, dedicated, intelligent, lovely, and very spry widowed coyote shifter from Arizona who is given a vacation at Shifting Sands Resort for shifters as a gift by her children and finds a whole lot more than just a good time and a dance partner-oh my! Two shifters in their twilight years who should be enjoying their lives but instead are both saddled with jobs, responsibilities, and sacrifices - check! A large demanding family, an underwater city, an unexpected emergency, an understanding Pearl Empress and Royal Consort-check! Heated attraction, steamy passion, dreamy love, a beautiful dance partnership, an undeniable fate, and a whole lot of fun-you bet! That and a whole lot more! Oh dear! Shifting Sands Resort will never be the same!
Did I like this book? No, I loved it! Would I recommend it? You bet, and I am but only for adult readers since it does contain a few dreamy love scenes. Will I read this author again? Absolutely! Just as soon as she publishes her next release. Zoe Chant is a gifted storyteller and master of her trade who consistently publishes exceptionally imaginative, well crafted, and exceptionally well-edited stories with unique storylines and beautiful covers. And finally, was I entertained? Completely! Well done, Zoe Chant! Well done, indeed! A fabulous opposites-attract love story!

All is well under sea . Il testo è interessante . Il megadonte sembra che sia sopravissuto nelle profondità degli oceani. Sarebbe interessante sapere se è reale la sua esistenza. Il seguito o i precedenti sono consigliabili
