Book five in the Tribal Spirits series
The sparks of Ally and Drew’s old relationship ignite, but their broken pasts and a final fight against Mackey Kendricks threaten any hope of a future.
After Drew fell in with the Landsliders and destroyed his former pack, forgiveness isn’t something he deserves. However, no matter how hard the Tribe has tried, Mackey Kendricks can’t be stopped. So when they narrow down the vicinity of the monster’s hidden lair, the Tribe calls upon him again, this time for one of the most dangerous hunts—a recon mission to find the exact location.
However, when his former flame Ally signs on as the other member of the team, their attempts at avoiding each other crumble to the ground. No matter how hard they both try and no matter how many times they’ve walked away, the flame has never extinguished between them. This time, Drew’s fought for his redemption, changed for the better, and the relationship that blooms between them, for once, might stand a chance.
All they have to do is survive the fight against the biggest, baddest shifter on the East Coast.

Forged Redemption is the fifth book in the Tribal Spirits series written by author Katherine McIntyre. Each book in the series tells the story of a different couple and can be read as a standalone paranormal romance. Even though this is true, I suggest starting at the beginning of the series. This will help you understand some of the background stories. Just know that this is optional.
Forged Redemption tells the story of Drew Williams, Dax’s Brother, and Ally Coleman, Lana’s best friend. I was first introduced to the characters in the first book and I’ve been looking forward to reading their story ever since! Drew has a lot of regrets and he has a very low self-esteem. He loves Ally very much, but he’s not sure that he deserves her. Ally is happy to see Dax again, but she’s not sure if they can get over the past.
This book was simply impossible to put down!

Sierra Kanoska fought hard for her position as wolf alpha of the Red Rock pack, and intruders in her territory receive the full brunt of what her claws, fangs, and smarts can accomplish. So when Dax Williams, de facto alpha of the Silver Springs pack, pays an unwelcome visit, Sierra’s ready to toss him out. However, the man’s in a tough spot. The pack elders sabotaged his fight for alpha against his brother, driving him from his lands. Sierra hates underhanded moves like that, so she agrees on an alliance.
As they work together, she witnesses an alpha who wants to do right by his pack, not just the cocky wiseass she first met. Their growing attraction blazes hot, but the moment she and Dax lock lips, a mating bond emerges. Sierra sure as hell isn’t ready to share that intimate connection with a stranger, and the thought of forever sends Dax running.
Before they can talk, the Tribe commanding the East Coast shifters arrives to settle the dispute. Dax and his brother’s punishment for their pack’s civil war is a free-for-all on their lands. Not only does he have to defeat his brother, but any challenger in the region. Despite Dax and Sierra’s initial resistance, his wily charm relaxes her control-freak tendencies while her steadfast support bolsters his strength. Yet every new opponent places their newfound relationship under siege—one misstep, one wrong blow in the ring, and Dax could leave in a body bag.

Forged Alliances is the first book in the ‘Tribal Spirits’ series from author Katherine McIntyre. I have a weakness for steamy paranormal shifter romances, especially ones with a really sexy alpha male! Knowing I was about to start one, I jumped right in without reading the description. I like to experience things first hand without the knowledge of what may come. So, when I read that the Red Rock pack was lead by an alpha female, Sierra Konoska, I got really excited. Most shifter books that I have read have both a male and female alpha ruling a clan, and I love that Forged Alliances has Sierra as the sole alpha of her wolf shifter pack.
Dax Williams is a mountain lion and part of the Silver Springs pack. Dax and some of his followers left their land after an incident with his brother and the elders. Dax has heard good things about Sierra and decides to pay her clan a visit, hoping to form an alliance with her clan. Although, it probably wasn’t the smartest idea for the mountain lions shifters to walk into a bar full of wolf shifters. Will Sierra help Dax and his followers?
I really enjoyed reading Forged Alliances! The storyline was captivating, and the characters are enchanting. I just devoured this story in one sitting and cannot wait for the next one!

Ever since Sierra and Dax mated, forming their alliance, Finn has been restless in his position as beta for the Red Rock pack. So, when Navi, the gorgeous, lethal member of the East Coast Tribe, conscripts him to help break up the Landsliders’ drug-running ring, he leaps on the opportunity.

Forged Decisions is the second book in the Tribal Spirits series from author Katherine McIntyre. This story can be read as a standalone paranormal romance, although I do recommend reading the series from the beginning.

Forged Decisions tells the story of Finn Kelly who is the beta wolf of his tribe. Sierra, his alpha, has recently mated Dax and been busy integrating the two packs (book 1). With everything going on, Finn feels like he’s not needed anymore. So, when the opportunity to work with Navi, a judge from the East Coast Tribe, he jumped at the chance.

Book three in the Tribal Spirits series.
When Jer kisses his best friend Raven, the feelings they’ve been avoiding surface—including secrets from the past that might destroy them both.
Jeremiah Taylor’s responsibilities as the new pack beta are crushing him, especially with the unpredictable mood shifts since his shaman-supplied bipolar meds ran out. It’s the combination for doing something stupid, like kissing the one woman he’s never let himself pursue—his best friend Raven Takahashi.
When Finn left the Red Rock pack, Raven’s on and off again fling took her safety net with him—the one barrier keeping her from the raw and real way she feels around Jer. The moment the Pandora’s box opens after they kiss, she can no longer deny the sparks between them or hide from the demons of her past.
And when one of those demons shows up in Beaver Tavern representing an anti-shifter group to take over their land, Raven’s secrets threaten to get dragged into the light, which could cost her everything—her friends, her pack, and her home. However, if she and Jer don’t thwart the anti-shifter group’s takeover attempts, the entire Red Rock pack might find themselves banished from their own land.

Forged Contracts is the third book in the Tribal Spirits series from author Katherine McIntyre. It can be read as a standalone paranormal romance, although I do recommend reading the series from the beginning.

Forged Contracts tells the story of Jeremiah Taylor and Raven Takahashi, and it begins about a month after the second book ends. Jer is the new beta wolf in the pack, and he has always felt an attraction to Raven. Unfortunately, he doesn’t think that Raven would want to deal with his issues since his Shaman disappeared, along with his medicine. Now he’s starting to feel his bipolar mood swings and Raven has only recently become single and feeling very vulnerable. Then someone from her past shows up, and Raven knows she has to finally deal with her issues before she can move forward.
Forged Contracts is a fun, and steamy read and I’m looking forward to the next in the series!

A modern-day Renaissance-woman, Katherine McIntyre has learned soapmaking, beer brewing, tea blending, and most recently roasting coffee. Most of which make sure she’s hydrated and bathed while she spends the rest of her time writing. With a desire to travel and more imagination than she knows what to do with, all the stories jumping around in her head led to the logical route of jotting them down on paper. She writes novels with snarky women, ragtag crews, and guys with bad attitudes. High chances for a passionate speech thrown into the mix.
