Review: A Billionaire Wolf for Christmas (Heart of the Wolf #26)

A Billionaire Wolf for Christmas (Heart of the Wolf #26)

by Terry Spear 

Blurb:
When the wolves' own blood betrays them, they risk their lives to find a miracle.
Wolf shifter Dr. Aidan Denali has been working day and night to find a cure for werewolves' alarmingly sudden decline in lifespan. The key to the problem eludes him. But when Aidan grudgingly leaves his work to do some holiday shopping, he meets a remarkable she-wolf whose mysterious pack could bring him one step closer to the answer.
Dr. Holly Gray is thrilled to meet the wolf who's been working so hard to help others. Now, it's her turn to help him. But while their attraction is sizzling, the packs are at odds, and the danger is increasing. It's going to take a holiday miracle for Holly and Aidan to get themselves--and their loved ones--out of this alive...

Review:
 The heart of the wolf continues to beat strong as this series moves forward with a story about two people brought together under near impossible circumstances with a single minded goal—saving their people from extinction. This goal has driven Dr. Aidan Denali for almost two years, ever since it was discovered that their people were beginning to age as humans, losing their normal wolf longevity, and having a partner to share in his research and help him understand how to save everyone is more than he could have ever hoped for in his future mate.  So when he meets Dr. Holly Gray, the attraction he feels, while not surprising, is surprisingly strong, and undeniably the biggest thing he has ever felt in his life.  Holly has devoted her entire adult life to protecting her pack and family, ever from the madmen that control it, so when she meets the amazingly smart and sweet Aidan she has no compass for what he makes her feel; except that she knows he is not someone she wants to lose connection with. I enjoyed getting to know Aidan more, having had peripheral knowledge of him from his brother’s romance in a previous novel, and getting to know him a bit as he worked to solve his race’s health concern. He is obviously a man of intelligence and chivalry, but he is also a wolf and with that come a bit of alpha strength to go with his sweetness and of course the sensual heat of any beast. He was such a mix of sweet and strong, smart and brave, that you couldn’t help but fall in love with him, which of course makes the speed that Holly gives in to him easily believable. Holly was another story altogether, but I liked her just as much.  Her inner strength made her the perfect match for Aidan and let us know that their pairing would be an equal one, whether in the bedroom,  the lab or in their fur, because they were simply made for one another.  I loved seeing how they managed to work together despite everything and everyone being against them, and still find their love together, and of course the passion between them was undeniably hot as hell.  I am looking forward to whatever comes next in the series and knows that, while it is a long running one, this series will never get stale and there will always be something interesting and amazing in each new story.  Another great addition to a series full of amazing males and the females that steal their hearts.
