Novella One and Two of the paranormal romance Syndicate Series. Novella One: Code Name: Fox Shifter, Skye Lannister, takes a job at the Agency in hopes to help her kind, but the Agency isn't what it seems. Caught by the vampire Syndicate council member, Zeek, Skye starts to question what she was thinking taking the job. When Zeek urges her to look deeper into the Agency, Skye learns that the company is hiding dark secrets and menacing plans. Zeek Fuchs, Syndicate Council member, vampire, drug lord, and overall badass wasn't prepared to protect the shifter he caught hacking his systems. The naïve woman took the job on a whim and had no idea she was carrying out dangerous orders. When assassins start attacking, things heat up as the two fight to keep her alive. Novella Two: Mind Games Most witches are freelance, but being a psychic witch makes Reagan Silas valuable to the Agency's Protection and Security Division. Untrained in physical magic, Reagan's talents as a witch are only a benefit in the Mindscape of those she interrogates. Her world is turned upside down when her interrogation of the Alpha of the O'Conner pack goes terribly wrong. Liam O'Conner never expected to find himself protecting the woman who tormented him in his own mind, but when it becomes clear that both of them are in danger he has no other choice. With an unseen foe on the loose, Liam must keep the witch close to him at all times and find a way to convince her of the truth about her employers. Can he make her see what the Agency is really up to or will her dark past keep her from trusting him?

Go To Bed Reading It, Wake Up Reading It

I read this book a lot quicker than anticipated because I simply could not stop. It took me barely a day and a half. My eyeballs might fall out but so worth it!

Both authors work up tales that lead into the worlds of the Agency and the Syndicate in two different tales of romance and paranormal tastiness. Each writer has their own unique style that works well enough with the others to make reading one story and continuing on with the other's story almost seamless.

I am a huge lover of all things Vampire and werewolves. The main love interests in these books are described well enough that I was left wishing I had one of each vying for my attention. ;) not sure who I would pick, though. . .

I highly recommend this two-for-one if you are into paranormal, supernatural, exciting action (both in the thrilling and sexual ways) packed romance that tackles the age old questions of who is really bad and who is good.

Two stand-alone novellas with a shared linked backdrop ...

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 24, 2018

You get two short novellas in this one, my paranormal vampire/wolf-shifter/psychic witch romance book loving friends. Fox, the first story, features a vampire hero paired with a fox shifting computer hacker heroine. Mind Games wraps up this duo with Reagan, a police type psychic witch turned reluctant at first protector of Liam, the leader of the pack alpha wolf shifter.

Both have an at first adversaries to lovers theme all within the same backdrop of opposing sides of two separate organizations, in which one is more lethal and very corrupt. It was a lot to keep track of. In fact, the conflicts often stole the show and held the spotlight. I must admit I started skimming at times. Perhaps, it was because I read more for romance/main couple interaction and not so much for what was transpiring between the backdrop scenarios.

There were quite a few perilous situations that unfolded. Some of them involved graphic violence. Let's just say, the expression, "I'll rip your heart out" takes on a whole new visual, bloody meaning here. Also, the heroine often shifting and having to walk around naked in front of others seemed to occur more than I was comfortable with.

If you are a fan of this genre, you may enjoy these two stand-alone but clearly linked novellas. Overall, the concepts of the plots were intriguing and the writing flowed most of the time, but there were instances where I found it mediocre. Enough so that I lowered my rating.

Title: Code Name: Fox/Mind Games, Series: The Syndicate, (Book 1), Author: A.L Kessler and Mia Bishop, Pages: 186, both stand-alones but same shared backdrop, some very steamy scenes, some graphic violence, romance safe, paranormal themes.

(I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book via NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own. I was not given any payment or compensation for this review, nor is there any affiliation or relationship between this reviewer and the author/publisher/NetGalley.)

Things are not always what they seem

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 1, 2017

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

This book contains 2 Novella's but both involve the "Syndicate".

The first story is about Skye, a shifter. She works for the Agency as a hacker. When she is unable to hack into the Syndicates computers, she is told to go there and do it directly. She is caught though, by Zeek. Zeek is a Vampire and no one to mess with. He knows Skye isn't an experienced agent and tries to explain to her that it is the Agency she works for that is bad.

Skye does start to question the Agency but it could mean the end of her.

The second story is about Raegan, a psychic witch and Liam, a shifter. Liam is brought in as a suspect for a murder and it is her job to go into his "mindscape" and find out the truth. Her interrogation goes wrong and now they are both in danger.

Liam must keep her close because he needs her help for the one trying to kill him. Raegan hates shifters with a passion which stemmed from her mother's death. Raegan will learn that the history she thought was fact...wasn't but can she save Liam?

Loved both of these stories and would recommend!

I loved this book! Paranormal, vampires and shifters. The story kept me intrigued from the beginning with its twists. I would recommend this book! Standalone.
I'm volunteering an honest review for an advance reader's copy.
