I loved this book just as I did all the rest of the series. It kept me hooked from beginning to end. There was lots of suspense trying to figure out what would happen next. And what a surprise twist that I did not see coming. This was a great read and makes me eager for the next book in the series.

Wolf Instinct by Paige Tyler

9th book from the SWAT series. Can be read as a standalone however reading one or two prior to this one will give you a better background, in particular on Zane’s injury.

Up until this book, the premise of werewolves or at least wolf traits were the only paranormal elements. The world is not as simple anymore.
I worried it was trite and done already, but in the end, it was tied up well. Better than I’d hoped with a hint of the next book.

These are always fast and easy to read. This was one of the better couple connections. She freaked a little when confronted with the “monster”, but it was the feeling of love emotions that ruled. This isn’t a spoiler. It’s a romance. The road may be rough but it gets there.

Excerpt:
“Everything happened so fast. Which was crazy, since she’d been through enough training and real-life situations like this. But one second, the remaining Neanderthal had his weapon pointed straight at the big guy and the next, Tall, Dark, and Gorgeous…moved.
There was another growl, a flash of reflected light off some seriously intense eyes, then Tall, Dark, and Gorgeous knocked the man’s gun hand aside. After that, there were about a half dozen quick strikes she recognized as some kind of martial arts style. Part of her noted Tall, Dark, and Gorgeous barely moved his left arm, instead, doing all the damage with his right. It didn’t seem to matter as bones crunched and the gun went flying into the darkness. Maybe he wasn’t a cop.
More like a soldier.
Or a trained killer.
Tall, Dark, and Gorgeous bounced the guy’s head off the side of the car door, then picked him up and tossed him into the same wall his buddy had crash tested. Yup. Brick was still tougher than human. Alyssa winced.
Tall, Dark, and Gorgeous spun around to look at her, his body taking on an aggressive stance. Alyssa instinctively brought her weapon up, only to have him grab it out of her hands before she even saw him move.
She rolled backward on the pavement, going for the backup piece holstered at her right ankle, dragging it out and jacking the slide back in one smooth motion. She brought it up straight and level, green night-sight dots aligning in the center of the man’s chest.
“I’d prefer if you didn’t shoot me,” he said in a deep voice.
Alyssa wasn’t sure what was more distracting, the way the words rumbled out of that muscular chest or the sinful British accent that made her think of some kind of decadent chocolate commercial.
“It would probably hurt,” he added.”
Excerpt from Wolf Instinct by Paige Tyler

I received a copy of this from NetGalley. I also purchased a copy to share.

I haven't read that many Paige Tyler books and in the grene of paranormal romance I will have to admit this is an interesting series. The characters are well thought out they have back stories that create who they are today. The Author gives the readers a different look at how werewolf's are created and how not everyone can be one. The series has the insta love story that works because of the fact it is paranormal romance with action pack shoot outs, fights and strong background.
This can be read as a stand alone novel which makes the book easy summer read. The romance is hot, the battles and fights are perfectly written balancing out the story.
The moment when Zane and the other realize they are not alone in the oddly paranormal world. Alyssa is a great female character with her X-flies background. Readers will start to see how this series will change and develop as FBI/X-Flies office are not apart of their group.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher Sourcebooks Casablanca for the advance copy of Paige Tyler Wolf Instinct.

Happy dance😀. I live both series by Paige Tyler and though. I am not caught up (I have them all) I could not pass up the opportunity to grab the Arc, Wolf Instinct was fresh, did not read as a ongoing plot in different stories. It was like finding a new author covering new ground with just enough pop of older drop ins from the pack to have the warm fuzzy of family. Alyssa was fantastic! Part of an covert FBI that is aware of supernatural, but not werewolves Strong, self aware women and Zane our hunky damaged werewolf. Our heroes become aware of more supernatural then themselves and as they stake out the bad guys Alyssa and Zane connect. Hot erotic love scenes, which if you don't enjoy (like me) skim over, but don't let that deter you. The plot is intriguing, suspenseful, sexy, family with an awesome HEA. Love the hint of things to come. Thank you Paige Tyler, Sourcebooks Casablanca and NetGalley for the Arc. All thoughts and opinions are my own and we're unsolicited

Zane Kendrick watched his three comrades die in Afghanistan, yet he survived. His own injuries, physical and mental, caused him to be discharged, while the ensuing nightmares and physical changes he experienced cost him his fiancée and broke his relationship with his family. Due to the trauma he suffered, Zane’s DNA triggered a change in him, one that turns him into a predator with superior strength, sight, sense of smell, and hearing. When a man with similar abilities recruits Zane for a police SWAT team in the U.S., the Brit agrees, and moves to Dallas. Though his new team is comprised of others like him, he still feels that he’s a monster.

Alyssa Carson works for the FBI, one of a few special agents in the country who investigates different crimes, those that are beyond the realm of what can be called normal. In the course of her career, Alyssa has come to believe in the supernatural, and knows that there are creatures out there who are definitely not human.

When Alyssa’s investigation of the disappearance of several women causes her path to cross that of Zane, who is pursuing a separate case, it appears their cases may be related to the same man. They cautiously decide to work together, agreeing there are certain things they can’t disclose, and each truly harboring a smidgen of doubt about the other. In truth, Zane wonders if Alyssa is behind the hunters, who have been killing werewolves. If she’s innocent, Zane has to be sure that she never learns what he is, as the federal government knowing of their existence could be disastrous.

Zane’s extraordinary senses are telling him that Alyssa is “The One” for him, his genuine mate. When Alyssa indicates she’s more than willing to indulge in some extracurricular activities with Zane, he doesn’t hesitate to take her up on her offer. Their physical chemistry is off the charts steamy, as well as fun, but she still doesn’t know Zane’s dark secret. Their investigation leads to a whole ‘nother set of supernatural beings, extremely powerful ones, and Zane is forced to reveal what he is, knowing that it will probably end his relationship with Alyssa.

I selected to read WOLF INSTINCT, not having read the previous books in this series, and not knowing the dynamics of author Paige Tyler’s werewolf world. Thankfully, the ongoing situation was concisely and intelligently explained without my feeling lost or overwhelmed. Also, the shifter biology was included in such a way as to provide the information needed to a new reader without boring someone following the series with repetitive information. I was drawn to both characters – who wouldn’t love a big, strong, handsome, sexy Brit? But what I liked most was Zane’s secret vulnerability and his inability to see that he’s not a monster. Alyssa is confident, strong, and accepting, which made her a perfect match for Zane. There is plenty of action and steamy romance in WOLF INSTINCT to make for a quick and page turning read for those who enjoy paranormal romantic suspense.

If you into Paranormal romance like I am. And enjoy those alpha males were shifters, then look no further. Paige Tyler next installment in her SWAT series, Wolf Instinct will leave you breathless. We are introduced to Zane Kendrick. If you follow this series, then Zane was the one shot up with those special bullets. Well, this is his story and he is royally pissed and wanting paybacks on the ones that are hunting his pack. Along the way, he meets Alyssa Carson and FBI agent who is no stranger to the paranormal world.

This couple reminded me of Jennifer and Jonathan Hart, of the famous television series Hart to Hart. With all the exploits and drama that was to be found in that show.

Wolf Instinct, a totally fun and entertaining read. A book that you will find you can’t put down until the very last page. If you're not reading this series, and your look for an engrossing, and diverting story to end your day. Then I highly recommend you start this series. You won't regret it...

Yay, finally another one of my favorite SWAT guys! Zane is finding The One in this book. But he is certain that fate must have been mistaken: surely The One can't be an officer trained to hunt and kill shapeshifters? FBI agent Alyssa Carson is specialized in strange cases: people found drained of blood, attacked people with scratch marks the size of a full grown bear. And lately some more strange things are happening. And she keeps stumbling on a crazy attractive guy, named Zane. He always happens to be near the strange accidents. For Zane, it is suspicious to know that Alyssa's name pops up at every shifter attack. Is she investigating or is she the one attacking the shifters? So they decide to team up, since they seem to be after the same attackers. But they are both weary of another and also they aren't totally honest with each other. Because how can Alyssa explain that she is not shocked by strange attacks, because she investigates them for a living? And how can Zane explain that he is not totally human all the time? Despite their distrust, they still feel strangely attracted to each other. Zane is sure that she is The One, but feels that fate does a cruel trick on him. And Alyssa doesn't understand her feelings for the mysterious guy. Add some danger into the mix and you have chemistry from the first to the last page! Five out of five stars from me and a special thank you to Netgalley for providing the arc.

For those of you who follow the series, Zane Kendrick is the British SWAT member who lost most of his bicep to synthetic wolfsbane. He's finally on a mission, to hunt down the former Dallas chief of police who masterminded an attack on the SWAT werewolves. He, Rachel and Diego are in LA. In the course of their investigation they cross paths with Alyssa Carson, an FBI agent who specializes in investigating the supernatural, though Zane doesn't know that. Alyssa suspects that Zane isn't human, but she doesn't know he's a werewolf.

As soon as Zane meets Alyssa, he realizes she's The One for him. There's a bit of insta-love going on with both of them.

Zane and his team join forces to find the former chief of police and some missing girls, because the cases seem to be related. A surprise is in store for Zane, Alyssa, and readers of the series. I won't spoil it here or in my tags. Read the book to find out the story's twist!

Entertaining!

Zane and Alyssa have an action filled story that has some really intense moments as well as some really sweet ones.

I voluntarily read an advanced copy.

Wow......words escape me on how to describe this storyline and all the action. Loved the story, Paige Tyler knocked this one out of the park...and around the world. I now want the next story even more. If you like action adventure with your love stories than this is a must read. I had the honor of meeting Paige in Reno NV last year....I only bought five of her books at that time....only to realize after reading them that I should have bought all of them.

I loved that this story begins the STAT / SWAT series. I stayed up longer than I should have reading this book...I just couldn't put it down. I cheered for Zane and Aylissa...and hoped that by sifting to full wolf that his arm would heal..... I don't want to give anything away.....but Zane's shoulder/arm heals in the end. Vampires and werewolves are in this story. Werewolves are stronger.!!!!!!!

Finally Zane gets his story. After all he has been through it was wonderful to read him getting a HEA. Alyssa and Zane are well matched. He a werewolf with the Dallas SWAT team, her an FBI agent handling supernatural cases. As per Ms. Tyler's stories there is a lot of action with a lot of emotion thrown into the mix. This was another terrific book in the series. This story also answers some of the questions that had arisen in previous books, and introduces some terrifying new elements. Love this series and can not wait for the next book.

Received as an ARC from Netgalley and Sourcebooks. Thank you.

This is a fast paced, paranormal, romantic suspense. Zane and Alyssa are both strong characters who fight to save the innocent. there paths cross while they are fighting to bring down the same group for different reasons. The chemistry between them is undeniable. This is a fast-paced, paranormal read. It is full of suspense, danger and great characters.

I received an advanced reader's copy of Wolf Instinct by Paige Tyler from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This was the first novel that I had read by Paige Tyler so I really had no expectations, but after reading, she is an author I would look for in the future.

Overall, I enjoyed this novel and I found it to be well written. The primary characters' romantic start was explosive from the beginning and just got warmer from there. I enjoyed the well crafted characters and the pacing of the novel. The plot moved along steadily and the intrigue kept me engrossed from start to finish.

All in all, a good read!

Very enjoyable and entertaining addition to this series! I really like Zane and Alyssa! Their chemistry is sizzling! Zane, is a sexy British werewolf. I mean, come on how can you not love him? Alyssa is an FBI agent and a strong woman, not a damsel in distress. I also really love how accepting she is of Zane especially after she finds out she is The One. . Such a good story that kept me on the edge of my seat near the end there for sure.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for this ARC.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! The hot Brit SWAT certainly grabbed my interest from the beginning. His take on being a werewolf.was a surprise yoo. Alyssa is a strong independent FBI agent who is used to taking a walk in the wild side but Zane proved to be more than she expected. Throw in a coven of evil vampires and you have one heck of a good.story.

Wolf Instinct is a terrific addition to this series. This story opens up a world of possibilities for these characters. I loved that Alyssa is convincing Zane that he isn’t the monster the bad guys are. Sometimes I found myself wanting to Gibbs smack him for his self-loathing. How is he going to love someone else if he doesn’t like himself? The author handled it wonderfully. I love this series and look forward to the next installment.

Alyssa is an FBI agent assigned to investigate cases of the paranormal nature. While working a case, she meets Zane, a wolf shifter who is a member of a Dallas SWAT team, also investigating. Alyssa works with his team to protect and rescue girls who have been kidnapped. Zane recognizes Alyssa as his soul mate and must convince her and himself that he is not a monster. Zane has a history of rejection and must overcome his own issues to pursue a relationship.

Love this author, this story is a great addition to the series, plenty of action and the chemistry between the H and h is off the charts, it hooked me from the beginning and I couldn’t put it down.
