[Archive] LITERAL ADDICTION'S Review of Wolf Hills


Bianca D’Arc is way more than just an author!  She is a former chemist with more letters behind her name than we could ever hope to have, a martial arts enthusiast, and an artist.  We’re not talking about being an artist just with her pen and computer, though that can’t be disputed!  We actually meant with a paint brush and a guitar, since those are 2 of her hobbies when she’s not creating fantastical worlds for us to get lost in.  Outside of that, she’s an avid bargain hunter and LOVES to shop!   

Bianca’s background in science has come in handy in her writing, as she enjoys mixing her real-world knowledge of science with her vast imaginary world library.  She writes in many genres and mixed genres, but concentrates most of her work in the paranormal, sci-fi, fantasy and futuristic realms with some contemporary and urban fantasy thrown in for the heck of it.  As fans, we can honestly say that we wouldn’t want it any other way!

Bianca’s series include:  RESONANCE MATES, VAMPIRE TALES (BROTHERHOOD OF BLOOD), DRAGON KNIGHTS (DAUGHTERS OF THE DRAGON & SONS OF DRACONIA), TALES OF THE WERE, JIT’SUKU CHRONICLES , STRING OF FATE and GUARDIANS OF THE DARK.  She also has single books out categorized under series for future expansion:  GEMINI PROJECT, GONE COUNTRY and GIFT OF THE ANCIENTS. 

 Wolf Hills, Book #6 of the BROTHERHOOD OF BLOOD series
Author:  Bianca D’Arc
Synopsis:   
Danger prowls on two legs…

A Brotherhood of Blood story

Detective Sally Decker’s Wyoming trip to visit her newlywed friend, Carly, turns into a dangerous adventure into the unknown when she learns Carly’s husband is a master vampire, and there’s a pack of werewolves living just up the road. As if that wasn’t alarming enough, the sexy Alpha wolf has taken a shine to her.

Jason Moore is an Alpha on a mission to make Sally his own. His very public seduction doesn’t sit well with the pack’s available females, but instinct tells him that Sally can handle anything, including any werewolf bitch dumb enough to challenge her.

Romance gives way to a call to arms when the pack’s children come under attack. Their rescue mission turns into a mating dance and the hunt is on in more ways than one. Their attraction is mind-bendingly hot, though startling revelations about his magic and her origins could drive a wedge between them forever. Can love help them bridge the chasm between their worlds?

Our Review [by Michelle L. Olson – LITERAL ADDICTION’s Pack Alpha]:
I’m a huge Bianca D’Arc fan.  I’ve followed every series that she has written and am always excited when I find out that there will be a new release.  Brotherhood of Blood was the 2nd series of Bianca’s that I discovered, so when I heard about the release of Wolf Hills I was ecstatic.
The first thing that struck me about this book were the amazing characters.  You have a strong, independent, willful heroine, a hunky alpha male hero and the perfect supporting cast. 
Sally is a detective on vacation visiting one of her best friends who just happens to be the Mistress of the area – the local master vampire’s wife. 
Jason is the Alpha of the local pack and the minute he lays eyes on Sally he knows that they’re meant to be. 
Despite warnings from Sally’s best friend Carly and her master vampire husband, Sally can’t ignore the attraction between she and Jason either. 
When hunters start targeting the pack’s young, Sally and Jason are thrown together to try and track down the hunters and the kidnapped kids and get justice.  As nature takes its course, sparks fly, adrenaline packed action ensues, and each of them learns things about themselves as well as each other.
The world of Wolf Hills was beautifully built, diverse, and captivating.  The storyline was action packed and thrilling, yet full of ‘tug-at-your-heartstrings’ romantic moments and intrigue; which is the perfect combination to make you not want to put the book down, and in my personal opinion, the recipe for a phenomenal paranormal romance.
 Like the reading warning states:  There were bombs, bullets, bare knuckled fights, bare-naked lust, and some serious booty kicking, and I did not want it to end!  After completion of the last page all I could say was “I WANT MORE!”.   
LITERAL ADDICTION gives Wolf Hills 5 Skulls and would recommend it to everyone.  The entire Brotherhood of Blood series (and the rest of Bianca’s Backlist) is fabulous, but this book is amazing and is a wonderful installment to Bianca’s library of literary excellence.
