Wow! Kate Douglas knows how to turn up the heat! Adam and Eve's story will break your heart while you grieve with him. His strength and that of Liana as she accepts her punishment and works to right the wrong she allowed to happen will wring your heart. As always, I strongly recommend starting with book one of this series and reading in order, otherwise you will be quite confused with much of the Chanku background.

In the 10th installment of Kate Douglas’ wildly popular series of the fictional Chanku wolves, Wolf Tales 10: Adam is a take on the old saying “love is lovelier the second time around.” But, this is Kate Douglas we are talking about so she added an edgy romance full of twists and turns. This is also an erotica story, and surprise… surprise! It’s not only what happens under the sheets that gives you an adrenaline rush. There is enough action to satisfy the thrill seeker in you.
The book description (see below) gives enough information for the storyline. Anything I add will be a spoiler. But, if you are hesitating to read “Wolf Tales 10: Adam” because of the #10, please don’t. It is a standalone novel. You will meet characters from the earlier books, but they will be peripheral characters here so you really don’t need to know their back story.
Still, I must warn you. Chances are you will enjoy this book so much that your curiosity will get the better of you and read all the 9 books before it!
Wolf Tales 10: Adam is Rated M for Mature due to sexual content and fantasy violence.

A big thank you to NetGalley for the ARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. First time reading this author. I rate this a 3. I tried to read it, put it down thinking I could come back to it and it would have more appeal. No such luck. I am not one for menages, but many will enjoy. Just not my cup of tea.

From the first time I read this, to this rendition, the Chanku Wolves are amazing.

Douglas has given us a world of shifters that are magical and titillatingly, erotically believable. They burn the pages up with hot sex and a connection to the world and each other that in enviable. These books have a special place in my library they are THAT good.

Not what I expected. But that is in the most positive way. Paranormal stories are normally not my thing but this one surprised me. Well written short story with a nice storyline and plot. I like that the characters and how they develop.
A passionate and emotional read with twists. Enjoyable and recommendable.

The epilogue is very welcomed and gives the story more to it and it finishes it better of than without it. There are passion, hot scenes and lots of chemistry in this amazing story.

I received a copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Adam by Kate Douglas is the 10th book in the Wolf Tales series. I found I could read this one as a stand-alone novel. I have not read the other books in order and some I have not read at all, I was not lost in this book at all. I really love that in a series especially one that is ten books in progress.
Adam is a Chanku. Loving and sensual. A deep connection to his pack, soul connected to his mate.
His mate is taken from him tragically. Her death causes rage and vengeance to take hold of him. Especially for the healer Liana.
Liana demoted to a life as a mortal for her crimes. She must live life in the pack of the woman she killed. When she finds herself feeling human emotions and falling for the man of the mate she killed she is confused and really feels connected to Eve the woman she killed. She is scared. She knows she messed up but has no clue how to fix it.
There is one FF scene in this book the rest is MF. There is flogging, attempted suicide and an MM scene. This story has a lot of stories to tell and it is really good. If you are a fan of this series this is a must-read. I know I am a fangirl now I have read it.

I voluntarily read an advanced reviewers copy of this book

When it comes to heat, action, love and family...this book brings it to another level! Overall Kate Douglas does a great job creating this world of shifters where all of the relationships are soooo flexible but definitely unbreakable where it really matters the most.

This book started out sad and it took a bit for me to get into this book but after I got over the hump the book got a lot more interesting. I especially liked the bond between the members of this book.

The author did a great job writing this book. I loved the world the author created for the Chanku. I had no trouble understanding the book even though I have not read any of the first nine books in the series. I will probably go back and check them out though just because I really like this book And I look forward to reading more from this author.

I was given a copy of this from Net Galley in exchange for an honest review.

I highly recommend this book! Adam and Liana were great characters who had really great chemistry together!!! I loved that Liana owned her past mistakes and made no excuses for her behavior. She was remorseful without being weak! Adam had a lot to work through and his "family" was there every step of the way, even when he maybe didn't deserve it. This story was SEXY and very smartly written!!

Adam is one of the Chanku wolves, they have power over their mind, body, and soul but cannot change destiny. Adam loses his mate to an accident and once he feels her die he is shattered beyond what he ever imagined. As a Chanku they believe in a goddess and she is supposed to be of timeless wisdom. However, the goddess is given a demotion from immortal to human and is supposed to fill the space that Adam's mate filled. Only for Adam, the former goddess, becomes his new mate, as his mate replaces her and becomes the new goddess.

The books of the Chanku are great, but definitely are not for the timid reader they can be graphic and full of very descriptive scenes. Each book tells a new story of the characters, but also usually includes characters we've seen before. This is one is no different and is full of surprises.

Wolf Tales Adam is everything we have come to expect from this hot paranormal series from Kate Douglas. Paranormal romances are some of my absolute favorites to read so when I find a series that I continue to enjoy it makes me very happy.

This book had my emotions all over the place. It was hot, it had moments that would make your heart ache, it was one I had a problem setting down when I had to do real like things. This series, well to be a little more specific, this book had that something special that makes it stand out from some of the others I have read. I won’t say what, because I want you to experience them for yourself.

Make sure you have this one on your TBR lists if you are a paranormal fan, because this is one book you will not want to miss.

I love this series. This is such a great book. It is hot and full of sex just like the others in the series. Be prepared for sex scenes involving m/f/m, f/f & m/m. If you have never read a book by Kate Douglas you need to pick up this series and get started. You won't be able to put it down. Trust me.

Wolf Tales is Adam's book and is everything I could have hoped for in his story. This book pulls all of your emotions and ties them into a knotted tangled mess. Yeah there's a happily ever after but you have one heck of a journey to get there. All of my old favorites make some sort of appearance during the book. Kate Douglas does an amazing job of balancing the heavy with humor and levity. The only thing that I could say I'm not fond of is Eve's attitude over her future, but I believe that is just my personal issue and not one with the book. Because it does work for the book.Wolf Tales 10: Adam
I always look forward to when she releases a new book. This was not an exception.

This is a very eccentric book that revolves around sex and wolves. If has a good yet cheesy plot. If you are looking for a quick read than this is the book for you. However it does deal with some broad topics.

ARC from Netgalley for Honest Review
Thank you Publisher and Author

Well...where do I start?
I'm not gonna do severe spoilers, I've read every Chanku and short stories in Sexy Beast books. Heck I have all the Chanku book on my shelf right now, but every time I read I get let down it seems to fall short somewhere in the books. Especially when a so called goddess who's done horrible things, practically gets welcomed into the arms of the very people she's treated badly. I mean no trial to prove her worth, hardly any trust issues. It was frankly annoying.
I don't mind the constant sex throughout the book, but there are a few female characters I still can't bring myself to like even if they were from several books ago. So some of the scenes just made me want to look away, shaking my head.
I was a bit underwhelmed and bored, would I read more from this author? I honestly like the earlier books a bit more...so probably not.
Why did I keep reading this series? I really like the idea, but the writing of it lately has been weakening.
I Give this book 3 stars.

Great read, really draws you into a different world. The story has plenty of drama and emotion. The characters are great and the sex is off the charts hot. I really liked it.

If you’re looking for a hot page turner, in the genre of paranormal romance. Then look no further than Wolf Tales 10: Adam penned by Kate Douglas. If you never read one of Kate Douglas books, then you’re in for a big treat.
Wolf Tales 10: Adams was a scorching page turner. You won’t be complaining that this book didn’t have enough sex.
Adam Wolf had it all a job he loves doing and a lasting bond he shares with his life mate. Until one day he lost everything in a matter of seconds. But where to lay the blame!
It seems that for the Chanku they have a goddess to make sure that nothing bad befalls them before their time. However, Liana the goddess who was supposed to be looking out for Adam Wolf and his life mate was otherwise engaged and failed her charges. For that penalty, Liana was relegated to live her life out as a human.
To me, Liana didn’t have it so bad. I think she had more action as a human than if she would have stayed as a goddess.
I don’t how I really feel about this book. I can’t decide if her coming to terms as a human was the plot-line or Liana realizing that being a goddess was so overrated.

****But be advised that this story was originally published on July 1st, 2009.****

I received an advance reader copy in exchange for a fair review. This is the first book i have read by this author and I thoroughly enjoyed the book. Adam is a shiftshaping wolf who loses his wife and learns to love again. Liana is an immortal who is sent to earth as a mortal after becoming self serving of her own desires. This is a highly erotic book and is well written. I plan to read others in this series and I highly recommend this book as a great read.
