Buckle Up, Norah is Diving Through…
Norah has just finished the book “Bride” by Ali Hazelwood. Bride is a paranormal romance that features an arranged marriage between a vampyre bride and an alpha werewolf as a way to uphold a long standing peacekeeping alliance between the two breeds. Lowe Moreland, the alpha werewolf, clearly doesn’t trust the vampyre, Misery Lark, since he can’t help but follow her everywhere. And what is a paranormal romance without a little bit of mischief? Misery entered the agreement for her own personal reasons, the only thing that she cared about. She is willing to do whatever it takes to get her possession back.
“Bride” by Ali Hazelwood was so good that Norah had to pick up the next book in the series, “Mate” by the same author. Norah has informed me that these books are an interconnected standalone series or a shared universe series. This is honestly my favorite type of series. If you are unfamiliar with these terms, the series follows closely related couples for each book and you don’t have to read them in order. Now if you’re curious about the book let me talk about it!
This book features the first of its kind, a human-were hybrid named Serena Paris. The creation of her was supposed to heal the long standing rift between the species, but instead the Weres, Vampyres, and Humans made her a target. Her only option was the Alpha of the Northwest pack, Koen Alexander. The person who has absolute authority. The one that makes everyone scared to cross his pack. It doesn’t matter how Serena feels, nothing is going to stop Koen from protecting her and keeping what is his, safe. Want to know what happens next? Read it!
