Wolf Rebel (SWAT: Special Wolf Alpha Team #10)
by Paige Tyler
Blurb:
SWAT werewolf
Rachel Bennett is hounded by nightmares after a vicious attack left her with
PTSD. Not knowing who or what she can trust anymore, she's relieved to be
assigned to a high-profile protective detail. Diving into work might be the
distraction she needs, until she notices the mysterious hunk who seems to
follow her wherever she goes—and recognizes him.
Now he needs her help...
After he's badly
injured, former Navy SEAL Knox Lawson seeks out Rachel when he realizes he's
turning into a werewolf. He'd once been part of the group hunting her kind, but
he knew he had to quit when he found Rachel in his crosshairs. Now he
desperately needs her help.
Rachel isn't sure
she trusts Knox, but having him around keeps the nightmares—and the monster
creating them—away. Knox might not know much about being a werewolf, but
there's no doubt he'll do everything in his power to win her trust and keep her
safe.
Themes: Paranormal,
Wolf-Shifters

Review:
Wow, ok I so didn’t see this one coming. We have been waiting for a while now to find
out the story behind Rachel’s nightmares and the things she has been seeing out
of the corner of her eyes, but we never imagined this was coming her way. And of course when an enemy becomes a lover
it automatically becomes all that more intriguing and complicated. This series has been getting seriously more
and more complicated as the enemies and friends continue to change and grow in
the most outrageous of ways. We have
been introduced to an all new group of killers and in this series the new
good-guys that we are supposed to trust turn out to be total douche-bags. I
really loved this story and I am dying to see what is coming next in this
series, but Knox and Rachel’s story was definitely more than interesting all on
its own. Knox and Rachel first met when he attacked the SWAT team with the
other Hunters months ago and their eyes connected across the battlefield,
despite neither of them attacking the other, they both know that something is
happening when he returns to her world now a newly-awakened werewolf in his own
right. Knox has been obsessed with Rachel for months since the first moments he
saw her and was unable to do what he thought was his duty and kill her, but
that obsession has become even more important now that he needs someone to
teach him to be a werewolf. Rachel is
dealing with her own shit, dealing with nightmares, waking visions, and
blackouts that leave her as a weakness to her team and herself. But as the truth
is uncovered and they are forced to come together in order to overcome all they
are facing and defeat their enemies, the relationship between them gets hotter
and hotter. Rachel was a woman with some serious issues but I enjoyed watching
her find her way with Knox and show her just how strong she truly was. She had been dealing with a lot since she
became a werewolf, and until she almost loses her life she doesn’t realize just
how much. Knox is determined to find his way in this new world he finds himself
in, despite knowing that he will not be welcomed with his past transgressions,
but Rachel pulls him like no woman before and he won’t let anything stand in
his way. When they are both faced with a
very real enemy that neither of them ever would have thought could possibly
exist, Knox and team rush to find a way to keep Rachel alive so that he can
have a future with her. Despite knowing
they should be enemies, the passion and love that develops between Rachel and
Knox was amazing to experience and I loved every second of watching them come together. This series just gets more and more
complicated and I find myself holding my breath for what comes next, knowing that
Ms. Tyler will never let me down. Another great story and if this keeps up I cannot
imagine how much better it could possibly get.
