Wolf in Her Bed (Salvation Pack, #2) By N.J. Walters
On the day of Anny Conrad's thirtieth birthday, she realizes that her chances of a husband and family are fleeting. Anny is turning into a spinster, she is the epitome of the librarian with cats and closely becoming a spinster. When her friend takes her out to celebrate her birthday, it has an ending she never expected a dance with a stranger that leaves her reeling.
Armand LaForge knows he is wound tight, he feels partially to blame after his alpha's mate was attacked. He is driven to protect his small pack and even though they sense he is in turmoil, he decides to take some time just for himself. He never expects to meet Anny, he realizes she is his mate but as a human he can never have her. His wolf feels otherwise though and he promises himself one night and it is electrifying, but at no time does he realize he has put Anny in danger.
I don't want to reveal too much but this was a phenomenal read. Unexpected and it left me eager to read more in this series. Have been a huge fan of N.J. Walters for awhile and she never disappoints. Armand is the beast and Anny happens to be the unexpected beauty, he is so protective of her even when he senses she is reluctant to hand over her trust. Wonderful story.

She was every hope, every dream he'd ever had. Anny was a fucking miracle and she was his.
4.5 stars!
I was pleasantly surprised by this novel and the love story between Anny and Armand! Their romantic journey was a bit atypical of other shifter novels I've read, but I found myself fully invested as Anny learns to trust herself and others, while Armand finds something worth living for. The first meeting between Anny and Armand was so romantic, but neither are expecting anything beyond that one exquisite night.
However when Anny becomes a target for Armand's former pack, Armand must choose between his long-sought vengeance and protecting his mate. I loved Anny's hidden strength and determination in the face of the new world she's suddenly thrust into, while Armand tries to balance protecting his mate and giving her the freedom she craves. I'll be on the lookout for the other books in the series to go on sale in order to continue reading!
Tropes: fated mates, one-night stand, reluctant mates, shifter/human pairing, knotting, heroine-in-danger, alpha hero, shy heroine, found family, smutastic Wolf in Her Bed (Salvation Pack, #2) I started this series in the middle, I read wolf on the run ,first which is book 3, I loved it. then I read Wolf at the door which is book 1 , I liked it, so naturally I went to book 2, I didn't hate it, but I didn't really like it either. It was almost the exact same book as book 1 and the give up your life aspect of the series is something I am not very fond of, you know now your a werewolf, you have to give up your friends ,your job and your house.. yeah not my favorite.

http://romancing-the-book.com/2015/02... Wolf in Her Bed (Salvation Pack, #2) Letting a man you just met for the first time at a bar earlier than evening into your house when he appears unexpectedly at your door in the middle of the night, naked, just doesn't make me want to find out what happens next ... although I did tough it out to see if the story improved. Um ... it didn't. Wolf in Her Bed (Salvation Pack, #2)
Is he Prince Charming or the Big Bad Wolf?
Salvation Pack, Book 2
Anny Conrad is a single thirty-year-old librarian—a cliché complete with two cats. Dragged out to a local bar, she’s rethinking her life plan over a few drinks when a man walks up and asks her to dance. And what a man. Tall, rugged and more than a little untamed. Before she knows it, she’s in his arms and throwing caution to the wind.
With a pack war in full, deadly swing, the last thing Armand LaForge needs right now is a woman in his life, much less a human. But one thing is certain, he’s met his mate, the one woman in the world for him.
The kindest thing to do is give her all the hot sex she wants and then leave her alone. But when the morning comes, fate isn’t done screwing with them. Anny is confronted with the fact that the myths in her library books are real…and now she’s one of them.
Warning: A night out at a club can lead to a loss of inhibitions and hot sex with a werewolf. Your life will never be the same. You’ve been warned. Wolf in Her Bed (Salvation Pack, #2)
2.5 book. I listened to the audiobook and the narrator did a good job. I didn't connect with this story. Wolf in Her Bed (Salvation Pack, #2) Captivating from first page to last. Anny - a single Librarian goes out to celebrate her Birthday and meets Armand. Armand is a werewolf - who with his family (a group of other werewolves including his cousins and friends) - have started their own Pack The Salvation Pack. The book is hot!!! and full of action. N.J. Walters has become a favorite for me very fast. well written with a great story line. Wolf in Her Bed (Salvation Pack, #2) I really like this Salvation series, I think it may be my favorite by N.J. Walters of whom I was already a fan. It has been a while since I've read one by her but it seems like the Salvation books are a bit longer which adds to the character development and plot so much.
The Salvation pack is a small band of wolves who broke from their violent pack in Louisiana let by Jacque and Louis' father. Now settled in North Carolina with their cousin Armand and friends Gator and Cole and newly human-turned-wolf mate of Jacque, Gwen. They continue to be at risk from their old pack and have survived two attacks knowing it isn't over until the old alpha is dead.
Picking up shortly where Wolf at the Door ended, Armand is still hoping for revenge on his father, brother to Jacque and Louis' father, who gave his own daughter to a man who abused and killed her. Out at a club one night he meets Anny, a shy school librarian celebrating her birthday with her friend Sue. They are instantly attracted (and he knows she is his mate) to one another and share a couple of dances and one hot kiss before Armand forces himself to leave, but he cant resist and shows up at her house where they spend the night together.
Armand plans to stay to keep her safe from the other pack though he can't forget her. Anny survives a wolf attack and is transformed (a rare occurrence supposedly but Gwen was in the first book too, but I'll let it pass since I like this story so much), she eventually seeks out Armand to find out what has happened to her.
Anny had a (small) tstl moment but can be excused because of the trauma she suffered and she is very likable. Armand is downright perfect, loved how sweet and tender he was with her.
I like how the author includes the other characters in the story and the more I get to know them the more I look forward to their stories. Coles is next but Louis & Gator's are not written yet. (Dare I hope one of them will wind up with Anny's friend Sue?).
Definitely recommended.
Wolf in Her Bed (Salvation Pack, #2) So book 2 in the series Salvation Pack, Wolf in Her Bed, was an ok read for me like the first one.
This time around was about Armand. He was as nice and sweet as in the first book but a little dumb when it came to his mate.
He met Anny in a bar, danced with her, followed her home, spent the night with her and left her the next day.
All his good intentions were shot when his own father took it upon himself to kill Anny. Well, he didn't succeed and Anny became a werewolf.
From this point forward the story between Armand and Anny picks up. He behaves like all the werewolves lovingly towards his mate but Anny, because she is/was human not so much.
So, Anny's atitude didn't go well for me because I am so over the whole being human she cannot feel/know that they are mates. It's most of the time one sided and leads to repetitive actions and thinking (should not be there, should go away....but it feels right).
The intimate scenes were so long that I started skipping to be able to go to the main parts. It was like I am reading the first book's parts. Even Anny's actions and thoughts were repetitive going through the motions of being there with Armand or not even though she jumped to i love you quite fast.
The secondary characters Cole, Gator were sweet and nice and had a great relationship. Louis continues to lack any traits and that is sad.
I don't like when the book doesn't feel unique and the characters follow the same steps/ action as the others.
I might be in minority here but after so many books read I have limited patience for repetition and copy paste.
I will however pick up and read the next books in the series because I like the secondary characters and I want to read about their HEA. Wolf in Her Bed (Salvation Pack, #2) Not too bad a book but the heroine has some too stupid to live moments.
Liked the hero -- some potential for his friends in future books. Wolf in Her Bed (Salvation Pack, #2)
