lalabristow's review against another edition

4 & 1/2 out of 5 stars!
It had been a while since I had read a M/M romance and when I received a request to read and review “Pack of Lies” I jumped at the chance and realized that I didn’t even know I was craving this kind of romance.
Jack is going back home with his best friend when he runs over what he thinks is a person, only to run into a wolf. The wolf is actually Marcus in his wolf form and since it’s during the full moon, he finds himself rabid and in hunt mode.
Jack and his friend get bitten and discover a short time after that their lives will never be the same again, when they start feeling the wild pull of the pack and the moon.
Marcus is gay, but he cannot even fathom the possibility of letting his pack know. As the Alpha it’s his job to keep things balanced, but Julian, the man who was supposed to be the Alpha by blood and family right and blames Marcus for having that right taken away from him, will stop at nothing until he has the power that is owed to him.
Jack has never felt attracted to men before, that is until his mental and physical connection to Marcus deepens more and more each day, making their attraction and the danger they suffer because of it too strong to be ignored.
I loved this book. It was a very quick read and I just wanted to read more and more about Marcus and Jack. They are two very hot men and I loved seeing their Alpha personalities battling out, specially in bed. I just wish we had a chance to see more scenes of them in bed together, these two were hot!
Vaughn’s werewolf mythology was far from romancified, her wolves are cruel, bloodthirsty and have no compulsion about killing humans. However, even though I felt disgusted by the pack in general, Marcus was plenty lovable and that is just a perfect reflection of the great job Vanessa Vaughn did in creating his character.
If you enjoy reading M/M paranormal romance, I definitely recommend Pack of Lies to you! Romance, Wolves, Alpha males, sexy M/M smexing and a lot of action! What is not to love! I sure hope this becomes a series and I really want a sequel with Jack and Marcus, because I can’t help but want to follow more of their story!

Pack Of Lies is about two young men that meet in certain circumstances that they never suspected. Jack a human is with his girlfriend driving, when they hit a "bump" in the road, and find a creature that they had hit. Then Jack to see if the creature is alright, and is then attacked by a wolf. Then heads home, but he knows that there has been something totally out of character since that night. He feels a strange connection to someone that he doesn't even know. Marcus, the Alpha of his wolf pack, is struggling to hold onto his position, and trying to hide the fact that he is attracted not only to women, but men as well. As Alpha it is forbidden to feel such attraction, but he can't deny it to himself. Then one night when he attack a certain human male, he knows that things are different. As Marcus goes about trying to bring both Jack and his friend integrated into the pack, however things never goes as planned as he starts to figure out just as he learns that love is the most powerful force out there, and how important it is to grow together with that love.
This is first erotic M/M romance that I have read, and although it wasn't what I expected, it was still a good read, and I am so grateful that this author asked that I review this book of hers. I also loved how each of these two men grew and learned things about themselves that they would never had discovered if they hadn't discovered each other. Marcus having to be a rough strong figure, finds a gentleness about himself when he stumbles on Jack. Jack learns about a inner part of himself that is full of nature and strength that he never thought he had within himself until that one night he was attacked. I loved the plot for the most part of this book, it was riveting and exciting and kept me on the edge of my seat anxious for what was going to happen next. The sex scenes in this book was very heated to the point of explosive that will heat the blood of any warm blooded reader. Although I enjoyed reading it, the ending seemed not enough for me. I felt like there should have been a bit more than there really was, but for the most part I truly enjoyed reading Pack of Lies, and I again want to say thanks to this author for allowing me the privilage of reading such a well written romance.
