Ancient Retribution🐉

Ancient Retribution is the next book in the Ancients Rising series and I loved it❣️

Juniper was abandoned as a teenager and gets adopted by a couple in a Wolf pack. Every time she tries to discover what happened, she faces physical consequences. Now years later, she works for August and her crew protects supernaturals and humans when needed and she finds herself with Zephyr in King’s Territory😳

A great story that I loved and absolutely devoured as quickly as I could…I’m hopeful we have more Ancients headed our way😁 I received an advanced copy via Netgalley and voluntarily leave my honest review❤️

This is a great read and I hated every interruption. Very fast paced it was a joy to read. So many different twists that I loved. I highly recommend this book and series.

I just simply love this series, heck, I love all of Ms Reus' books, but this series has something special. It just keeps getting better and better with each book and Ms Reus has this great way of portraying the men in her books as these over protective, possessive heroes who would do anything for their females, who themselves certainly are no wallflowers.

Juniper is working black ops with her team to stop supernaturals who abuse humans. When on one of such missions she meets Zephyr while he is trying to close the gate to a Hell Realm. When he finds out they have the same goal and hunt the same people he decides to join them.

Zephyr immediately knows she's his mate, but Juniper comes with baggage. She was abandoned by her biological family and found and raises by a lovely wolf family. Unbeknownst to her though, her biological family never stopped looking for her and when they do contact her, she's really confused.

While all this is going on the attraction between Juniper and Zephyr is of the charts. Juniper however doesn't want to commit fully and Zephyr only wants something serious. It was great to see how he won her over bit by bit, while still fighting to save all the humans in time.

As said, this series just keeps getting better and better and I'm already looking forward to Ren and Grace's story that will hopefully be next and please, please, pretty please Ms Reus, can you give Christian and Alex a story too??😍

This ARC was kindly given to me by the author via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review. Thank you ever so much!!

Zephyr and Juniper were everything I needed and more. I can always count on Katie to write a possesive, alpha dragon that makes my heart flutter. Ancient Retribution is the next one in this ancient dragon series and I have to say, Zephyr is my new face alpha dragon. He was so attentive and sweet. I need more sexy dragons, so Katie next one please.

Juniper, a dragon shifter, hunts bad guys with her crew. Humans are coming up missing and it’s their job to locate the human traffickers. Juniper was raised with wolves and when she tries to remember what happened to her, she gets headaches and nose bleeds. Zephyr, a dragon shifter, has been in the Hell realm and has escaped recently. His brothers are all mated and living in New Orleans. Zephyr joins Juniper and her team to hunt down the traffickers. He knows immediately that Juniper is his mate but he must convince her first. Her lost family has found her and she’s royalty! As they fight together, Zephyr slowly breaks down the walls around her heart.

Excellent story with shifters, bad guys, and new family. Action and suspense.

Love, Love, Love this series! It doesn't disappoint and always a great story. Juniper and her crew are hunting for supernaturals who are trafficking humans. They end up in the Alpha King's territory and in the middle of a fight they come upon Zephyer who is trying to close a Hell Gates. The immediately realize they are looking for the same group of people and need to work together to catch them. Zephyer is instantly attracted to Juniper and knows he has met his mate, now he just has to convince her.

Great story and really enjoyed all the characters from past stories.

Ancient Retribution (Ancients Rising #5) by Katie Reus
Another great addition to this series. Juniper a dragon shifter who was raised by wolves hunts down criminals on her black ops missions. Dragon shifter warrior Zephyr doesn’t feel like he fits in anywhere—until he meets Juniper and her crew. They are perfect together and end up in King's territory looking for human traffickers. This is a page turner that keeps you guessing and it has so many twists and turns. We catch up with a lot of old friends including Hunter. If you haven't read the other books in this series you can get up to speed fast - but I suggest you read them because they are so good. There is deception, evil, violence, old and new friends, found family - different kinds, laughter, tears, and steam to get us to a very HEA, I hope there will be more books in this series.
Reasons I enjoyed this book:
Action-packed Easy-to-read Entertaining Haunting Happily Ever After Page-turner Romantic Scary Steamy Unpredictable Witty Wonderful characters

juniper and zephyer are about to meet....

cant get enough of this series and cant wait for the next one....loved this book

Loved this book! Juniper and her crew accept the task of finding the human trafficers and rescue the humans. As a dragon shifter, she is uniquely qualified for the task. She has a crew she's worked with forever, however, when Zephyr joins her team, this changes the dynamic and stirs something previously dormant in her. As the sexual tension rises between them, they also must deal with family members from Juniper's past, along with lots of nasty vampires.

This book moves at a brisk pace with lots of action and angst. One thing I particularly enjoyed was the strong female lead. I love stories that feature an intelligent and competent female protagonist and this book showcases this.

If you enjoy the genre, you will love this book. While part of a series, this is a stand alone novel, however, its so good that you really owe it to yourself to read them all. The author is on my must read authors' list.

I’m loving this series and I really enjoyed this one.

Zephyr finally finds his mate and she’s amazing. A born leader and warrior. Juniper is a dragon shifter raised by wolves. She has wonderful adoptive parents and a fabulous crew. Together they battle the evil in this world.

But Juniper’s past haunts her when it comes to her relationship with Zephyr. She feels casual is all she has to offer. Luckily Zephyr has other ideas. But the romance has to wait (and simmer) as they tackle a human trafficking ring.
