PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Tyler (Wolf Rebel) cranks up the heat in the action-packed paranormal romance that launches the Special Threat Assessment Team (STAT) series, about a government agency created to monitor supernatural threats. Werewolf Alpha and ex-Navy SEAL Jake Huang moves to Washington, D.C., with his nascent pack consisting of himself and identical twin 18-year-old women he rescued from vampires for a job as a STAT team leader. In the new position, he can finally let his fur flag fly and spend meaningful time around fellow supernaturals. Jestina Ridley is a human STAT agent assigned to Jake's team and bad experiences with supernatural threats in her past have left her with a wariness of werewolves. Despite a rocky start to their relationship, attraction smolders between them as they track a dangerous supernatural entity from the U.S. to the U.K. and to the lushly described shores of French Guiana. Over-the-top situations lead to intricately choreographed action sequences, lending the novel the feel of a delightfully ludicrous cinematic thriller. Tyler teases more fun to come in future installments with the introduction of many complex secondary characters, among them Caleb, an omega werewolf with control issues. Those willing to suspend their disbelief are in for a sizzling thrill ride.

Wolf Under Fire by Paige Tyler
Paranormal shifter romantic suspense.
1st book in the Spin-off of the SWAT series (Special Wolf Assessment Team).
Wolf shifters law enforcement goes international.
Can be read as a stand-alone.
STAT Agent (Special Threat Assessment Team) Jake Huang joins his new team and pack in London to investigate supernatural killings. STAT agent Jes Ridley doesn’t know what killed her teammates, but it wasn’t human and neither is Jake. Trust will have to be earned within her new team mixed of humans and werewolves.
A fast moving, easy read with non-stop adventure. Full of action, espionage and hot sex, this new team is dynamic and smart.
I enjoyed the action, the beginning friendships and learning the special characteristics of the team. Finding The One makes these romances uplifting and hopeful.
Excerpt:
“There probably wasn’t a werewolf out there in the world who didn’t know the legend of The One—the thought that Jes might be his had never entered his mind. Seriously, how could she be? Soul mates were supposed to be a one-in-a-million thing. Maybe even one in a billion.
“You’ve heard wolves mate for life, right?” Caleb asked Forrest. When the guy nodded, he continued, “Well, in some ways, werewolves do the same thing. There’s supposed to be one perfect person out there for each of us who we’re meant to be with forever. When a werewolf meets his or her soul mate, it’s supposed to be like catching lightning in a bottle.”
“Soul mates. Wow,” Forrest breathed. “I mean, Misty and I are solid, but I made a lot of dumb mistakes when we first started dating. Would have been nice to know we’re soul mates the moment we met.”
“You’d think so,” Caleb agreed with a snort. “But for some reason, Jake is too busy swimming around in that river in Egypt to notice what’s right in front of him.”

I received a copy of this from NetGalley. I also purchased a copy to share.
Awesome paranormal romantic suspense!
Just like the SWAT series I think I am really going to love this new STAT series. I love me some werewolves! Ms. Tyler knows how to do paranormal romance right. And this new series spin-off starts off with a bang for sure! And I love that it seems like it is going to be an international thing, which is cool and intriguing. This story mainly takes place in England and is full of action but still has plenty of character development, relationship building and intimacy. Jake Huang who we have met before is a former Navy SEAL and is the alpha of his new pack. He travels with his new team to join forces with Jestina Ridley who is human and recently lost her team members to what she thinks is a werewolf. So as you can imagine she starts off with some serious trust issues and hesitancy. Jake is strong, sexy and hard to resist and a force to be reckoned with; the rest of his team are equally fascinating-Caleb, Harley, Misty and Forrest all with their own interesting skill-sets/abilities. I really liked the relationship between Jake and Jes, but I also really enjoyed the story as a whole because it has just the right amount of all the ingredients that make up a great paranormal romance! Look forward to more!
