About this ebook
Being related to one of the oldest shapeshifter legacies in Maria, Lily Baxter grew up knowing there was a chance she’d find romance amongst the supernatural. Too bad her idea of romance wasn’t a drunken one-night-stand with a Coyote she loves to hate, an unsentimental Vegas wedding, and then soon after, a heartrending miscarriage. She and Lance Aitkenson obviously aren’t meant to be. While secretly coordinating their divorce far from the snoops back in town, her new husband gets jumped by man-hating jaguar shifters…and it’s up to her to smooth things over.
Feuding with enemy shifter groups is kind of written into Lance’s job description as a Coyote pack lieutenant, but there’s something stranger than normal about the Jaguars. Not only do they seem to have abilities no other shapeshifters have, but they claim a centuries-old connection to Maria’s resident goddess. They see strong-minded Lily as a kindred spirit, but Lance fears sinister motives.
Together, he and Lily might be able to unravel the secrets of the mysterious cult and prevent them from disturbing the peace back in Maria, but can they really work cooperatively when they’re so close to calling it quits? Or will they realize that they don’t need an accident to be their excuse for being together?

Best Interest Lily is the fixture in a whole lot of different worlds maybe that's not the right word but it kind of fits. She is cousins to cougars, friends too sum coyotes, blessed by Lola and daughter two man who doesn't believe she should be mixed with others. Lily's life has been complicated sometimes and what she wants and what others expect of her. She always tries to be nice to everyone even those who don't deserve it and being a dutiful daughter to a man who doesn't believe she's capable of taking care of herself. Now we come to Lance. Coyote second to the alpha blue. Coyotes are known to be chaos causing trouble makers though it's usually not intentional is just their genetic makeup. Lance have some hang-ups that he's not addressed but when Lily comes into the picture he's not sure how to act. These two characters or kind of a riot read about as they were not your normal lovey-dovey but more like prickly pear which made for some you need to misunderstandings between them. enjoyed reading this story just because of the different Dynamics between this couple and the author was able to answer questions from previous books that were left kind of open. This book was no longer than normal which I thoroughly enjoyed because she covered so much. I have not been I've not been disappointed and any of the Maria series and I actually will hate to see it. If you are looking for a set of books to keep you entertained for the summer you definitely can't go wrong with this series. I have voluntarily read and reviewed this book without any obligation to the author.

Not only was their romance one that disappointed Lily Baxter but their quick trip to end it lands this couple right into a modern western showdown not only between them but with a group of man-hating jaguar shifters with mysterious abilities. Sparks fly in every direction throughout this thrilling showdown of epic proportions between Lily and Lance as their sizzling chemistry keeps them all worked up. They seem to rub each other the wrong way which keeps this relationship in extreme turmoil which leads to a ‘War of the Roses’ type relationship and has them engaging in heated encounters full of angst, snark and just plain meanness. These two solid characters easily pull readers into their story and provide them with lots of wild entertainment throughout the fast paced and explosive plot, but that’s not all that’s keeps the readers glued to the pages as they are introduced to some mysterious man-hating jaguar shifters whose motives are anybody’s guess and of course Lola and Tarik make a few ambiguous visits. I was completely charmed by Lily and Lance and their uproarious courtship throughout The Coyote’s Bride and I couldn’t help but sympathize with some of their personal issues involving miscarriages. Every visit to Maria is an entertaining and eventful one but I have to say that this one certainly never had a dull moment and I didn’t want to miss one second of it and with the way it ended (which the author was so nice to give an explanation for) I am certainly looking forward to reading the next story and finding out more. Note: Miscarriages are a very sensitive subject, but the author interjected it into the story in a non-invasive or offending manor and provided helpful information to readers.
