Taylin doesn't have a clue how the universe works, but he believes that given the right conditions in which to flourish, love can conquer everything. He is about to put that belief to the test.

Divergent. It's a dirty word in society, and it's also the reason those who should love him unconditionally have cast Taylin out. One act of bravery changes the course of Taylin’s life, and he counts his blessings every day.

Years later, his life is set to change once more when his adoptive parents announce they’re retiring, putting him directly in Hollis Adice’s path—Taylin’s one true temptation.

Only one problem.

Hollis has shown zero interest in him for five years!

Coming home, a change in dynamics for their working relationship…

Will it all lead to Hollis finally seeing what is right in front of him—Taylin?

Only time will tell.

Taylin's Temptation is book 2 in the Divergent Omegaverse series, (book one is a prequel to the series about the founders of Starling Enterprises, and a freebie when you sign up to my newsletter) it's a twist on shifters versus non-shifters. With steam, heat's, cuteness and an alpha who just wants to be loved for who he is.

5 out of 5 (exceptional)

TAYLIN'S TEMPTATION is the second story, but the first full-length novel, in the Divergent Omegaverse series. As you might have gathered, this book focuses on Taylin and Hollis, whom we met in the introductory short story.

These two met five years before this story starts, but both of them hid behind a professional veneer. Once Derick and Lane announced their retirement, Hollis' position within the company changed, ensuring that he and Taylin work closer together. Apart from that, nothing much changes until they go on a work trip together. Hollis had tried warning Taylin that his heat was due, but Taylin's naughty wolf stopped him from hearing that, and so Taylin insisted he come with him on the trip. The gloves are off when Hollis goes into heat!

There are a lot of different personalities in this story, some of which I can't wait to learn more about, some of which I don't particularly like right now. However, I'm reserving judgement as I know Ms. Sayle has a way of making you like even the man-whorish of character! It is a bit much at times, but I was always thankful to return to Taylin and Hollis.

This story is also full of light-hearted moments between brothers and close friends. HOWEVER, it's not all fun and frolics. During the above-mentioned work trip, they find a business that is decidedly not light-hearted, with the conditions the omegas are working in and under being disturbing, to say the least. I really hope this is one of the threads that continues and these omegas get their own HEAs, whether that's a mate or having a career.

I thoroughly enjoyed this story and can't wait to continue with the series. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED by me.

Where does one start with about what I do?

I’m a writer, but I’m sure you guessed that by now if you’re reading this, hey?

What you might not know is I’m a little quirky, live in my pj’s most of the time and have cake Saturdays with my sisters every week. I dedicate a little of my time to taking care of my grandbabies and on the dedicated writing days, I like to write an eclectic mix of romance, suspense and paranormal fantasy. In the main, I’ve written gay romance but I’m branching out under another the pen name in the future, so watch this space.

I’ve got a passion for books like you would not believe and it led me down this path and now I’ve over 29 books released and heading towards releasing a whole lot more. The way my head is I never know where I’ll be headed next. I hope you’ll find a little joy in my words and follow me to see where the journey takes me and you.

If you’re interested at some point in 2021 I’ll be writing under the name JP Paton which will be F/M crime and Fantasy two of my favourite things. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled.
