Claiming His Mate by Savannah Stuart

She thought the house was empty when she broke in…

When jaguar shifter Lauren Hayes breaks into an alpha’s home to steal back what rightfully belongs to her pride, she doesn’t expect to be tackled by Max McCray, second-in-command of the Kincaid wolf pack. As punishment for her crime the sexy wolf shifter demands that she stay with him for one week. Knowing she’ll start a war between her pride and his pack if she doesn’t, she has no other choice but to agree, even if the thought of being near him 24/7 makes her scared that she won’t be able to hide her growing attraction to him.

Now he has a week to make her his…

Max has waited months to make a move on the sexy jaguar shifter and now that she’s broken shifter rules, he’s not letting her go. He doesn’t care that he’s a wolf and she’s a jaguar, claiming her forever is the only thing that matters. Unfortunately, not everyone likes the idea of him being with a feline shifter. Max is forced to choose sides between Lauren and members of the pack he’s sworn allegiance to in order to protect the woman he knows is his destined mate.

Short story set in the realities of the shifters. Lauren is the alpha's little daughter of the jaguar pack, while Max is the right-hand man in the Kincaid wolf pack..

The story is nice, even if it doesn't add anything new to the world of shifters, however I read it well, the plot is smooth and full eroticism and sensuality as often happens in stories of these paranormal romance creatures.

I liked especially Max and his behavior with Lauren. He deceides to conquer her and he has the right opportunity when she gets caught stealing in the home of the  wolves pack leader, bnotte choose not to abuse his role.

It's a pair with a good chemistry together and I regret only that the brevity of the story has not been able to give them more space, exploring the story.

Racconto breve ambientato nella realtà degli shifters (mutaforma). Lauren è la figlia più piccola del capo branco dei giaguari, mentre Max è il braccio destro del branco di lupi dei Kincaid.

La storia è carina, anche se non aggiunge niente di nuovo al mondo degli shifters, però si legge bene, è scorrevole e carica di erotismo e sensualità come spesso accade nelle storie che di queste creature paranormal romance.

Mi è piaciuto soprattutto Max e il suo comportamento con Lauren. Decide di conquistarla e ha l'occasione giusta quando lei viene colta in flagrante a rubare in casa del capo branco dei lupi, ma comunque decide di non abusare del suo ruolo.

È una coppia on una bella chimica insieme e mi spiace solo che per la brevità del racconto non si sia potuto dar loro più spazio, approfondendone la storia.
