Stalking His Mate

League of Gallize Shifters, Book 3

By: Dianna Love

Narrated by: Stephen R. Thorne

New York Times best seller Dianna Love's Gallize shifters are back with an action packed adventure, a sexy love story, and a twist no one saw coming.

Having spent her life as a captive, Siofra escapes when her power surfaces to save her from an attack, which exposes her as a nonhuman. All she wants to do is find her brother who is also being hunted, then vanish to live free from shifters. That plan would have worked if a golden-eyed jaguar shifter hadn’t stepped between her and a dangerous jackal, throwing a major kink in her escape when she falls for the sexy protector.

Rory didn’t choose to be a jaguar shifter and is determined to not mate even though he faces death from the Gallize mating curse if he doesn’t. The end may come sooner than he expects when his jaguar loses the ability to heal them, but that doesn’t prevent Rory from racing in to save a young woman from a vicious predator. The moment Siofra is in his arms and his power reaches out to hers, he struggles against the primal pull of the one woman he’s drawn to as a mate. Even if he didn’t feel the need to end his bloodline, she hates shifters.

None of that will matter if Rory fails to stop the deadly Black River Pack from using Siofra in a grisly experiment when she’s caught in a trap.

Critic reviews

“Dianna Love once again gives us another wonderful series for us to savor and follow.” (The Reading Cafe)

Fast paced and entertaining

I really enjoy this series. This is book 3, and follows Rory who is a member of a black ops shifter organization. Shifters are out in the public, but this group has abilities and power above and beyond normal shifters. Rory can shift into a jaguar who he calls Ferrel, and he hasn't really come to terms with the fact that he has this power and can shift. The Gallize as the group is known, suffer from a curse if they don't mate by a certain age, and Rory has decided that even if he is lucky enough to find a mate, he won't. This causes a major problem with his ability to heal, which becomes a real problem as he is always diving head first into dangerous missions.

Siofra was captured at age 6, and held as a slave for most of her life. She only knows what she has been told by the Cadell's (enemies of the Gallize), and her adoptive brother who is another captive. Siofra is not a shifter, but she has power of her own, and it chooses to show itself at odd times. When she is attacked by one of her captors, her powers surge and she is able to escape with her "brother's" help. While on the run, she encounters Rory, and they connect in an unexpected way. From that point forward they are both connected to each other lives whether they like it or not. Siofra needs help finding her brother, and Rory is committed to helping her.

This was a fast paced, entertaining installment to the series. We get updates on the characters from the previous installments as well as meet characters from future books. You can read them all as standalones. I've read the series completely out of order and I'm following along just fine. Dianna gives a recap on how the Gallize came to be and their mythology in this book so you aren't completely lost. I really appreciate that in series, especially with standalones or books in long running series.

This has a little bit of everything. It has a nice paranormal aspect with the shifters and magic, it has romance, good character development, action, and great pacing. The characters have to face internal struggles as well as external struggles. Rory and Siofra had to deal with their trust in each other as well as their ability to rely on others. They both had to come to terms with their own abilities while also dealing with a ton of stressful situations.

I have both read and listened to these books and can't recommend them enough in either format. I really love the premise of this series and can't wait to read the next one!

Like Always Dianna Love delivers

Every book Dianna Love writes is a joy to read, so much so that I buy both the book and the audio book when it’s available. Thank you for keeping me so entertained. You Rock!

I wish I was Tory's Mate!

Stephen R. Thorne's voice has definitely grown on me, and I enjoyed the book more listening to him versus reading it myself. I absolutely love this series, and each book brings me more excitement. Rory is an amazing jaguar Gallize shifter, and you know is get to be an amazing woman as his mate!

Stalking His Mate by Dianna Love

Stalking His Mate by Dianna Love

Paranormal romantic suspense. 3rd in the League of Gallize Shifter series.
Rory is a jaguar shifter. He has never really connected with his animal and he is no longer healing from battle wounds on his own. He is an alpha apex predator and part of the Gallize.
Siofra was captured at the age of 6 and has been working slave labor since then for the Cadell. She’s been taught that the Gallize are monsters and has learned to stay away from all shifters.

When the two cross paths their awareness and energies connect and intensifies. For Rory, who has always rejected the idea of a Mate, suddenly has his jaguar sure that Siofra is their mate. For Siofra, who has learned to dislike shifters, realizes that maybe all shifters aren’t bad.

It’s an intense race to save Siofra from both the Black River wolf pack and the Cadells while fighting an underground drug trade and black market shifter auction.
Be aware there is an overall arc to this series so while it’s a complete story for Rory and Siofra, there are unanswered questions.

I was impressed with the level of knowledge Siofra had of the world by simply reading books and watching old movies. And how well she adapted to being out in the world on her own. Be warned: her power can kill and she uses it several times on some really cruel shifters, once at least a bit gory and graphic. She cries at the acknowledgement of having killed.

A thrilling ride from start to finish

I recently listened to the audio version narrated by Stephen R Thorne who does most of this authors books. Stephen does a great job with emotions, tension and character variations.

Big Cats in Love

Rory and Siofra's story offers the Gallize fan lots of action, sexual tension and hunky shifters. I loved the action, the damaged but not daunted characters, the hot passion and tentative insecurities of a new love.
A really good story, well read by Stephen Thorne.

The League of Gallize Shifters

Stalking his mate is a story about two individuals who seem to be total opposites. Rory a jaguar shifter is a black op’s soldier that helps to protect humans and shifters alike. He finds himself constantly battling with the idea of being a shifter born into a non-shifter family. While on a mission he finds a young women named Siofra who was taken as a child from her family and is raised as a slave in a camp that deals in shifter trafficking. Despite her terrible childhood she has a heart of gold only wanting to help others. Their journey helps them both overcome their inner demons while accepting their other worldly skills as they become a whole together.

Stalking His Mate

Rory is a member of the Gallize Shifters who are the good guys. However, he never wanted to be a jaguar shifter. To stop this from being carried on he's decided not to mate. His attitude is killing Ferrell, his shifter. What happens when he saves Siofra, a captive of the evil Cadells is an exciting romantic adventure. Rory is an amazing hero. He is carrying a lot of emotional baggage but he cares and will do what's right. I found Ferrell's snarky attitude added humor to their relationship. Both are attracted to Siofra. She has unbelieveable powers and just as many secrets. Their interaction is filled with contradictions. I wanted them together and safe from their enemies. Siofra has a good heart which is surprising considering what she's endured. The story is one shock after the other. Stalking His Mate is an exciting adventure. I loved the characters, the suspense and the romance. I can't wait for the next addition, The audiobook makes me feel as if I was there in the midst of the action. It was so exciting.

A Great Series

Life doesn't always turn out the way you want. Siofra doesn't know why her father sold her into slavery, but she wants so much more out of life. One fateful day, she's forced to run for her life into another world she doesn't understand any better. Interesting characters, suspense and lots of action will keep you listen until the very end. This is a very enjoyable, looking forward to listening to more of it. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request, and have voluntarily left this review.
