Rise of the Wolf: Dark Paranormal Fantasy for the Call of the Wild in Us All (Eye of the Storm Book 5) Kindle Edition

by Dianna Hardy (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.6 out of 5 stars 83 ratings
The fifth book in the dark paranormal fantasy series, Eye of the Storm.

With the king returned after twenty years absent, wolves across the country – even Europe – are coming out of hiding to show their support. And not a moment too soon, for dark shadows from the past are taking centre stage in the lives of the four who lead the Surrey pack.

Is the royal line corrupt? Where do storm-wielders truly come from? And how does an ancient Egyptian mythology fit into the confused present?

As the moon begins to wax once more, answers start to surface. However, they may come too late to save their species from extinction.

The bond between the mated four is stronger than ever; a future worth fighting for is within reach... But The Trident have a new leader – one who will do anything to survive. And the knowledge one old woman harbours could be enough to destroy everything.

Written in British English. Contains scenes of explicit sex and violence that some readers may find disturbing.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Dianna Hardy is an author of cross-genre fantasy fiction, most notable for her explicit-yet-soulful, dark-yet-light style, and the raw, intense Eye of the Storm werewolf series. But her heart-warming Once Times Thrice series proves she can weave her way through contemporary romantic fiction as well as fantasy.

She loves to bring you stories that are action-packed, fast-paced and not short of heat, with the focus on character development, relationship dynamics, and the plot. She writes full-length novels and short fiction.

Since 2012, a number of her books have reached the top 30 of the Fantasy, Romance, and Horror charts on Kindle and Apple Books.

In her private life, Dianna loves anything paranormal (she doesn't really consider it "para"), organic food, coffee, walking barefoot, the smell of the woods after rain, and summer days.

She lives in South Hampshire, U.K., with her partner and their daughter, where she writes full-time.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Exciting reading!
    Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2015

    I had just done this review when it disappeared on me so I am not sure I can do it justice now. I loved the book and found it gruesome and brutal in places and sexy hot in others particularly with the developing relationship between Taylor and Ryan. In fact the dynamics of the mated four is quite amazing and lovely to watch and heaven knows where it is all going to end? Gladys and her story was quite pivotal and I can't wait to see if there is some sort of twist to this as well.
    This time round however out of all the events and characters Selena got to me and I really hope for changes in the last book. She deserves all she gets and yet there is such desperation in her that it resonates with the reader and we want her punished yet want better for her.
    What is going to happen? Can't wait to find out!

    4.0 out of 5 stars What a great series
    Reviewed in the United States on October 4, 2015
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    Let me start by saying I really do love this series it's very well written and creative. The only reason this wasn't a five star read for me is that in some ways putting Ryan and Taylor together in an intimate way ruined things for me. It's not that I'm opposed to m/m interactions I've read other books like that. It's that it takes away from Lydia IMHO. Ryan has been dreaming of Lydia for 10 years knowing she's his mate (and not having bi-sexual tendencies before) but this book at times makes it seem like Ryan cared more for Taylor than Lydia and vice versa. When Ryan returned from being gone he had more of a physical reaction to Taylor than Lydia. Then when Taylor is injured he is terribly upset, as he should be, but once Lydia is injured he STAYS by Taylor's side,,,,WTH? And don't even get me started on Taylor choosing to protect Sarah YET AGAIN OVER LYDIA. I think the author making Lydia alright with it is suppose to make the reader okay with it but I for one was not. Lydia should come first for all the men but especially Ryan as her actual intended mate. Hope the next book makes Lydia more important to Ryan than Taylor and more important to Taylor than his ex!

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Fantastic Read!
    Reviewed in the United States on October 5, 2015

    This is the fifth book in the Eye Of The Storm Series. I loved it!

    Lydia is a fantastic character. I have really liked her from the start. She is a strong and stubborn woman, but she has not had it easy being a storm-wielder, mated to three sexy werewolves. After the battle with the Tridents, she is now grieving the death of her best friend, Brendon, and her father. However, there is more challenges to come. Will she manage to keep her family together, or will Selena get her revenge?
    I have been eagerly awaiting the release of this book for months (almost a year)! I started reading this story and couldn't put it down. In fact, I read this in one sitting! The story continues from the end of the fourth book and is again told from various points of view. I have missed these wolves a lot!

    I am still a little speechless about this book. It completely blew me away! In this book we get to see a little of Gladys's past. She has been a mysterious woman for most of the series, so being able to see her history in the manner of flashbacks or dreams brought her more to life. Her story is not a particularly nice one. I really felt for her as she dealt with some really nightmarish and hair-raising events and made me understand her a little more. However, it's the shocking revelations that are revealed later in the book that completely left me breathless. Now I'm worried what this will mean for the quartet in the near future.

    Selena is not my most favourite of characters, but even I felt for her as she had to make a most difficult choice. Again, I wonder what the future holds for her.

    I love how the relationship between the four: Lydia, Lawrence, Ryan and Taylor has grown even more.
    Lawrence is not one to show his vulnerability much, as he hides behind a wall he erected to protect himself. However, it touched me deeply that he would drop his defenses to show his vulnerability to Lydia. He has come a long way since his arrogant facade in book one. I don't normally include quotes in my reviews, but I love what Lydia says to Lawrence, "They never got you, don't you know that? You irritating, charming, stubborn, evolved, intolerable, sweet, complex, caring, melodramatic bastard with your heart of gold. They never got you. You're wholly you, and you're perfect.", and it's true.
    Ryan and Taylor. What can I say? I love these two men as individuals, but as they become closer, I love them as a couple; they made me envious. I love the scene in the van. It made my knees go weak, it was that hot! The bedroom scene is just as sensual. I love the way the author has written those scenes, as it shows the love these characters have for each other. I haven't read many m/m stories, but those I have read pale in comparison.

    The story has several twists and turns, not to mention shocking revelations, and is masterfully told. The sensual heat factor in the story is hot enough to start a fire, and the ending has left me wanting more! I cannot wait to read the next book as soon as possible!

    Dianna Hardy is one of my favorite authors. I love her writing style, which is fast paced and fluid. Reading her books are a joy, and I will continue to read them for as long as she keeps writing them.

    Due to the explicit sensual content and some bad language, I do not recommend this book for younger readers. However, I highly recommend this book (and series) if you love HOT erotic paranormal romances with sexy werewolves. Please note there is m/f and m/m action in this book, as well as violence, and may offend some readers. - Lynn Worton

    Okay, Ms Hardy, we need to have words. Why do you to that to my Taylor each time? Come on, give the poor wolf a break. And that right there is one of the reasons why I love this series. Hardy keeps you on the edge of your seat with the continued journey of Lydia and her three mates. Every word she writes you feel right to your core. You feel the love, the hate, the passion and the loss. My heart was ripped out, replaced and then ripped out again by that ending. Poor Lawrence. What the hell he is supposed to do? Poor Selena, yeah, I never thought I would say that, I fear for her future. As always the sex gets you all heated. Ryan and Taylor together, enough said. I'm dying to read the next instalment of this amazing series. Please Dianna, I will get down on one knee and beg if I have too, please be kind to Taylor in the next book. I will leave this review with my favourite words from the book as I feel Lawrence will need them in the next.... Real choices-the ones that changed you and shaped you-were never made with the head, but on the beat of a heart that saw a future it couldn't live without.
