Wow! You have done it again! You have created an amazing world of the werewolves and humans. The beginning so sad for Layla and her father but she handles it so well becoming the adult needed in the situation. When she found out what was to be expected she didn't try and get out of it. She embraced it like the powerful wolf she is. Damn... it was hot ;) I really liked it. The ending shocked me but I can't wait for the next book. It was an addiction story! Layla is one of my favorite characters of yours!

Layla thought her biggest challenge would be moving into her new roll in the pack as becoming of age and leaving the childish games she played with her younger friends. Layla had expectations with her father being the head alpha of four & her mother was the keeper of the clan that kept the peace for all. Layla world and responsibilities changed with the unexpected death of her mother, she would now become the keeper. If she cannot complete the sacred ritual & keep it a secret all will be lost for all. This was a intriguing story I'm not a fan of a novella or short story ends quickly at a major point.

Review for The Keeper of the Wolf Clan (Keeper of the Wolves #1)

This is the first time I've had the please of reading one of Red Phoenix's paranormal books and it will definitely not be the last time! I am a huge fan of paranormal romance, especially when there is shifter smut involved. Nothing beats a growly alpha man that goes furry and has teeth the likes of which could tear and render, yet he treats his woman with tenderness. (Okay, maybe not always tenderness.... but some sweetness laced into the... ahem... pairing.) This is a great quick read that will leave you wanting more.

Layla finds herself in the position of Keeper to her wolf clan after the previous Keeper unexpectedly dies. The part that makes being Keeper both an honor and a curse is completely unknown to everyone in the clan that isn’t a part of the monthly ceremony. When you find out what the dark secret is that surrounds this ceremony you will probably be a bit on the disgusted side, yet... there is just something about the way Red writes the story that makes it so much more. Let's just say my moral compass was brought to question and I found myself thinking things were HOT that I never would have thought could be prior to this book.

I give this one five stars for storyline and five soaked panties for super sexy shifter smut! <3 Another must read from Red!

3.0 out of 5 stars It Is What It Is.

To all those people giving this book bad reviews because of bestiality and incest, you obviously weren't paying attention. Yes, there is some bestiality-they're werewolves, what else do you expect?-but there is no incestuous activity what so ever. The main character views one of the Alphas as a surrogate uncle. He is in no way related to her save for the fact that they are of the same species. Over all I found this book mildly entertaining. It was a bit on the imature side with some of its dialog and explanatories, and I do NOT agree with Valen's earlier mistreatment of Layla or her father's pre-ritual attempt to "spare her the additional pain", but the book was semi-interesting and I wouldn't mind seeing how the series ends.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sexy wolves story!

Loved it, as much I have love all Red's books. I must confess though I waited until Red was about to publish the sequel to read it. I don’t think I would have been able to wait this long. Anyway to the story, as always Red heroine is strong woman willing to do anything for those she loves. In this case the H you think may be an idiot but turns out he was just as amazing as any of Red Heroes. I thought the mating scene was wicked and sweet in a weird way. I know one of the reviewers mentioned bestiality but I think the whole scene was handled with class. I loved it! Now as I am writing this review I am waiting for Amazon to get their act together and publish the sequel. I know Red already uploaded and they are making us fans wait.... CANT WAIT, YAY. Now I am in love with Valen and dont want anyone to spoil that for Layla.

I enjoyed this book. It is very different than the Brie series,( and if you have not read them I highly recommend them) however, it has an interesting take on the wolf mythology kinker than many shifter books. In a review I read someone mentioned bestiality. I have to disagree with their take on the mating. It is challenging for me to discuss without spoiling a very important part of the plot! 1. We are talking fantasy here. 2. It is mentioned over and over that certain actions break pack and shifter law. They are not human's!!! They are wolf shifters. If anyone has questions ask me in the question part of the reviews and I can answer that without spoiling the book for others.

Can I admit that I'm surprised I enjoyed this story? I didn't know what to expect, especially after reading the reviews, but I've enjoyed more than one Red Phoenix novel, so I thought I'd give it a try.
The book is hot, in some moments uncomfortably so, but what I appreciated was that those moments were not created for shock value or simply to add more sexual content. They follow the storyline, and they make sense to the plot.
Speaking of plot, the story was fascinating and I found myself captivated with every word.
All of that being said, this novel will NOT be for everyone, so read the book description, read the reviews, read the sample, and then decide if this is a novel you want to read. I wasn't disappointed :)

I love escaping in books and forgetting what I know and just embracing the characters and world the author is creating for me to explore. The Keeper, by Red Phoenix, didn't disappoint, I stepped into a world of wolves where traditions must be upheld and a young woman, Layla, has to decide does she have the strength and courage to do what is required of her. Red Phoenix crafted a very believable scenario within this world that might make your head spin (or maybe some other body parts) within this pure sexual/erotic fantasy, a great way to escape for a few hours.

Mistress Red you have done it again. I never thought a book could captivate me as much as Brie but this one did. It is beautifully written and keeps you on your seat. The action is HOT HOT HOT, as always. The characters are lovable and would so love you to extend this book. I would recommend this to anyone who loves Red Phoenix and loves wolves. IT IS JUST AWESOME, A GREAT READ.

Red Phoenix has truly made a rod for her own back with her terrific writing - whenever I pick up one of her titles, I expect nothing less from her. This short is no exception a great story about a young she-wolf who, on the premature death of her mother, becomes the "keeper" of her clan. The role normally goes to a married she-wolf but Layla is an unmarried virgin who has only just come of age.

The story has two main strands, it deals with her grief over the loss of her mother and her determination to succeed in her new role. That determination is tested by fears about the secret ritual that takes place on the full moon.

There are some really nice touches to the tale, the author makes use of a few playful little reminders of Layla's youth, her relationship with her father, and when her faith in her father is briefly shaken - all handled superbly. The sexual aspect is handled skilfully - remember Layla is a young innocent. The four Alphas are all pleasingly drawn and for a short story, their four very distinct personalities are deftly portrayed. There appears to be much potential for further instalments in the life of the Clan.

Layla comes of age in many ways AND we are gifted with a happy ending. I think what would really be good would be to re-visit Layla as she matures in her role.

A lovely 4* read.
