2. Healing of the Wolf by Cherise Sinclair

werewolf mate romance books

Despite a decade in captivity, Margery never lost her resolve to help the sick. Finally rescued, she has a chance at her dreams—at least for meaningful work.

With her leg crippled and her face scarred, she knows she has no hope of ever finding love.

After years away from his littermate as a police officer among humans, Tynan is finally home, a beta in the wolf pack, and serving his people as a law officer.

Assigned as Margery’s mentor in the pack, he patiently works to earn the skittish little wolf’s trust, wanting more from the gentle female than just friendship.

Separated from his littermate for years, Donal has remained unmated, devoting his energies to healing.

Believing ugly rumors about their new neighbor—a banfasa—he won’t have her in his clinic or his life—no matter what his newly returned brother wants.

But a feral shifter’s strike on Tynan shows Margery in a whole different light. What male could resist her?

I enjoy variety, therefore I particularly enjoy the menage romance between Margery and her two wolf littermates in this werewolf romance book.

The thing that interests me the most is how different Tynan and Donal are from one another while still being attracted to Margery.

This is a novel to check out if you’re searching for one with tons of alpha hotness and an emotional draw.

It’s been three years since that fateful day—and the boy is back. Except now he’s a man, and Ox can no longer ignore the song that howls between them.

4. Wolf Rain by Nalini Singh

werewolf mate romance books

Taken as a young girl, her psychic powers harnessed by a madman, Memory lives a caged and isolated existence until she comes face-to-face with a wolf.

Labeled an empath by her bad-tempered rescuer, Memory knows that her ‘gift’ is nothing so bright. It is a terrible darkness that means she will always be hunted.

Alexei prefers to keep his packmates at bay, but Memory awakens the most primal part of his nature—and soon, he must make a choice: risk everything or lose Memory to a darkness that wants to annihilate her from existence.

This book made the list because we believe Memory and Alexei will engage in some fantastic push-pull.

You’ll absolutely love how Memory overcomes her past and isn’t scared to square off against the wolf who would prefer to keep his distance.

Singh is renowned for his fantastic psy-changeling worlds, and this one sounds like it’d be ideal to delve into.

Widow Daisy Ellis Craigmore is ready to embrace her new-found freedom until a string of unexplained crimes brings danger to her door, forcing her to turn to the most unlikely of saviors.

Ian must step out of the shadows and protect the beautiful, fearless Daisy, who awakens in him desires he thought long gone.

As their quest to unmask the villain draws them closer together, Daisy has no choice but to reveal her own startling secret, and Ian must face the undeniable truth: Losing his heart to Daisy may be the only way to save his soul.

A historical romance book with werewolves in it? I’ve made it big.

You will love Callihan’s more recent contemporary romance novels so much that you can’t wait to read some of her earlier paranormal works, beginning with this one.

Given Daisy’s peril, I am quite interested to see how Ian, who has had to suppress his wolf nature for years, will fare.

7. Feral Sins by Suzanne Wright

werewolf mate romance books

When female wolf shifter Taryn Warner first encounters Trey Coleman, an alpha male wolf shifter with a dangerous reputation, she’s determined to resist his charms.

But Taryn finds herself drawn in by Trey’s forceful demeanor and arctic-blue eyes, and she eventually agrees to enter an uneasy alliance with him.

If the two succeed in convincing their respective packs that they’ve chosen each other as mates, Trey will win valuable political allies, while Taryn will escape an odious arranged mating.

Even if you’re not into paranormal romance, you’ll enjoy this werewolf romance book if you like alpha guys and sassy, caustic, strong heroines.

Even though Taryn was a latent wolf, she more than held her own against Trey, who was undoubtedly a hot alpha werewolf. I heartily endorse it.

This is less of a fantastical, paranormal romance and more of a modern werewolf romance, in my opinion. Additionally, there are 8 novels in the series that feature the full pack.

For this werewolf romance novel, Young used a current, contemporary scenario that incorporated Scotland and numerous locations in Eastern Europe.

This book would still be a great contemporary romantic suspense read even if the paranormal aspects were removed.

You would want Collan, a wonderful alpha Chief and wolf, on your side. Thea is a strong female lead, and you’ll see that her past was extremely fascinating.

And it is Anna’s inner strength and calming presence that will prove invaluable as she and Charles go on the hunt in search of a rogue werewolf—a creature bound in magic so dark that it could threaten all of the pack.

It’s easy to see why this werewolf romance book is so well-liked in its category.

 You’ll love a wolf who is a strict enforcer and who is very domineering and that he mates with a rare Omega wolf whose mating is shrouded in mystery.

Just a brief reminder that you should read “Alpha & Omega” first, as it contains the narrative of Charles and Anna’s first encounter, before reading Cry Wolf.
