The Good, The Bad and Everything In Between
Did you like Bringing Up Baby?: Because that’s kind of what this reminds me of, except the hero is the leopard (well, in this case a liger) instead of (just) the nerdy professor. Meena sweeps in and turns Leo, the Pride’s Omega, and his calm, orderly world upside down. He eventually loves it but it’s a bit of a battle. If you’re used to the shifter romance where it’s all about the hero’s pursuit of the heroine and insta-love, this is not necessarily the story for you. But there was never a time that I doubted Leo’s attraction for Meena, and when he goes all in, he goes ALL IN.Lots of humor and sexy times: Meena’s considered a catastrophe on two legs. Where she goes, Trouble follows - which coincidently is her sister’s nickname, but that’s another story. Anyway, there’s alot of humor throughout the book, which is why I love reading Ms. Langlais’ shifter romances. There’s a good mixture throughout the book - let’s just call it funny smut or smutty fun. Either way, I liked it.Wacky heroine: I loved that Meena didn’t have a confidence issue. Her motto is “Live for today, live for the moment, never let fear win.” She’s a Big (literally, over 6 feet tall with curves to match), Beautiful Woman. All caps. She knew she was awesome and even if she had a small moment of self-doubt, she didn’t let it get her down.<blockquote><b><i>“Her inner lioness gave her a mental smack. Of course he wants you. Who wouldn’t? What the hell was up with the self-doubt? I’m awesome.”</b></i></blockquote>There’s not enough of that in the world and I loved that she owned it all.Stoic hero: Leo’s the zen Omega. The one used to being obeyed. And if he’s a little bored with life because he has it so under control, well, he’s ok with that. Until Meena shows him how boring that is. He struggled and I wasn’t used to that in my shifter hero, but it grew on me.Simple story: There's no major action, it's fairly straightforward and fairly thin as far as plot. It's sweet and enjoyable but not particularly deeper than that.The Bottom LineI liked it. It’s a twist on the usual shifter romances and if you like a little screwball comedy (but not too much) and a hero who plays hard to get, you may like this.

I would like this omega to snap on me
OH WOW what a book. Eve Langlais has done it again with her Sexy Omega and oh so Brave take charge Lioness. I love the humor and characters the whole yen and yang oppiste attract sucks you in and makes this a delight. Add in a determine past suitor that wants the girl and you get a man that can't hide his inner liger (lion tiger mix). I love Meena and her one liners that cause Leo's jaw tick or his eye twitch. which is a favorite i like to cause my own hubby. You can never go wrong reading any of Eve's Laugh out loud, giggling and snickering books. I love having people look at me odd while reading in public. Because this books are so worth it! “Resistance is futile. But cute. Think of me later when you’re masturbating, I know I’ll be thinking of you.” With a last stolen bite of his dinner, she popped up from her seat and sashayed to the bar. Don’t look. Don’t look. Pfft. He was a cat. Of course he looked, and admired the hypnotic swish of her ass.”Menna just allowed back in the pride do to trouble at home and her daddy ask Arik the Alpha. No one says no to her Daddy. When out of the blue she finds the man that makes her lioness perk up and take notice.. The Omega and oh she likes to lead him on a merry chase. Only problem he just wants to fight how he feels but that wont deter her and her purist of her MATE.Leo loves calm and organization and into hers arms falls a delicate freakin flower NOT. Almost as tall as him and makes his liger stand up along with other parts and take notice. He doesnt need the vexation that she will cause but when another man from her past comes sniffing her he looses his will placed cool and boy does that poor Omega snap.. “You were playing in the road?” “Road, sidewalk, does it really matter? What’s more important is, if I can’t play inside, and I can’t play outside, where is a girl supposed to play?” Upstairs, eleventh floor, condo unit 1101. His bedroom had plenty of room. Of course the sport he pictured didn’t involve any props. Nor did it include any clothes. But telling her she could play with him naked probably wasn’t the answer she looked for.”

What a tangled web we weave....
When Leo comes home after a long day, he hears someone in the lobby call out heads up or heads down. A female voice that he does not recognize. He gets hit in the head with something. What is it? Who is it that retrieves what hit him? Who are Meena and Teena? Why have they been gone? What did Arik's father do? When this mysterious person starts calling him pet names like snookums and pookie, how does Leo feel about that? Why is she doing that? What does she claim they are? When she won't leave him alone and breaks into his apartment. She demands food in the morning from him and he leaves, making her leave as well. She follows him to the cafe, gets a call from her sister and then Dimitri shows up with his goons. Who is Dimitri? What did he want with her? His she handling herself and what happens when Leo walks out and gives the goons a highly suggested order to not touch her? I love Leo's inner liger. He's so funny on his thinking, wants, and desires. Especially when it goes against what Leo is saying will or will not happen. My favorite part of the book so far is the liger's comment, "Sad meow." After an international incident is incited by her, causing Leo and Dimitri to fight in public in a bar, when they return to the tower, Leo is called into the principal's office (Arik's office). What happens? She goes to get drunk and eat ice cream with the girls and what does Leo say to her mother that has her screeching for her father and then what does he say to her father on the phone? You're going to have to read to find out how vexing this "Vex" is for Leo and what happens. While I'm not laughing as hard as I did at book 2, there is indeed a lot of eye rolling, grinning, and shaking of my head going on. Why is Leo going to Russia to rescue someone? Oh my.

Loved Leo!
Eve Langlais is a automatic one click author for me, love this series, love the hot alpha men and no nonsense kick ass women.This third instalment is just as good as the first two, loved Leo from the very first book. He's the no nonsense, head cracking Omega of the pack. Loved his self denial from the start, I liked that it took abit longer for him to come round to Meena's way of thinking. Meena is a strong, sassy, smart women who was surprising soft at heart with the same internal struggles as women with a lot less apparent self confidence. I loved that she wasn't put off with Leo's initial reluctance and just kept pushing and pushing.My only complaint is that I would of loved to have a little more interaction with Arik and Hayder and their mates, although that's just my own selfish needs of wanting to know exactly how the previous books characters are getting on.Loved the very last few pages and am counting down the days until the next book!

Chaos, Games and Consequences
Omega Leo sees visitor Meena as he tells her off for playing frisbee indoors. Within a few minutes, her reply is that he is her mate.Leo likes order and calm, while Meena causes trouble wherever she goes. The only reason she is visiting is a determined ex boyfriend who won't take no for an answer.Quite a few disagreements, fights and jealousy, confusion about an identical twin and demands to treat his daughter properly before all ends well.

Good
I have to admit that this wasn't my favourite of Eve's books. Having said that, I did still really enjoy it. I loved Meena with her bouncy, irrepressible personality and accident prone ways. It was a good book and I'm looking forward to reading the next one.
