Coyote Mate Coyote Breeds Book 6 Lora Leigh 9780425226339 Books
I've read nearly all of Leigh's Breed books (of course I managed to do it out of order), but this one seems to be set apart from the rest in terms of its tone, perhaps because of the difference in the other breeds and the Coyotes, who were all raised to believe they had no souls.Quick synopsis: Anya has been working with Coyote Ghost Del-Rey Delgado to free the captive Breeds where she works in a Russian lab. Flash forward 6 years, with the final group of Breeds ready to be rescued and Anya makes Delgado promise her family that works at the lab won't be hurt. Of course, he lies and shoots them, not fatally. Knowing they're mates and wanting less than nothing to do with Delgado, Anya petitions the Breed Grand Poo-bahs to grant her a year's reprieve before she has to go to him. Flash forward another 8 months, Delgado's back from his latest mission and sick of waiting for his mate. They fight, they have sex, they fight, they have sex. In his absence, Anya's managed to whip the lazy Coyotes into shape, something that ticks Delgado off for some convoluted reason. That all leads to the best part of the book, so I won't spoil the rest.
I can't say I didn't enjoy Coyote's Mate, because I did. But sometimes Delgado was downright unpleasant to Anya, whether it was caused by his general stupidity about wanting to do the right thing but managing to do the wrong thing anyway. Maybe that's the reason I didn't find him as sexy as any of the other Breeds. I got why Anya loved him, but he just left me feeling a little lukewarm until the final three or four chapters. That isn't to say the sex wasn't scorching, and yes, Leigh is back to her backdoor fun (after what I'd hoped was the end (ha ha) to it with Mercury's War (Breeds, Book 16)), but for reasons that aren't apparent until the end of the book, these two were emotional ships passing in the night except when they were going at it.
The final third of the book is really the reason I gave this one four stars instead of three, and if there were half stars, I'd have given it four and a half. Yes, I cry at Hallmark commercials sometimes, but Delgado's insane treatment of Anya that triggers the finale had me go through half a box of Kleenex. I've gotten a little teary at the ends of most of the Breed books, but this one was off the charts on the sob factor.
Possibly because this is one of the most recent Breed books and Leigh was running out of stereotypical Alphas and their feisty women, it seems that this story is more thoughtful, conflicted and emotionally tugging than the others. So, despite me rolling my eyes at some of the idiotic antics of Delgado, I do recommend this one and rank it only behind Mercury's War and Elizabeth's Wolf. The supporting characters here are wonderful, the relationship between Anya and her friends/guards, beautiful.
There are 21 books in the Breeds series, which gets a little confusing when you have book one and felines one, etc. I recommend going to the author's website (her name plus dot com) to get the right order.

Coyote Mate Coyote Breeds Book 6 Lora Leigh 9780425226339 Books Reviews
I really liked this Breed story. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars was because of the sex. I love the way Lora Leigh can write a dramatic story and make my heart twinge with regret or with joy as her characters walk their path to happiness, but as is frequently the case with her books, the sex sometimes gets in the way.
If Ms Leigh would take out about half of the sex scenes in ALL of her books, I would be in heaven.
Honestly, there can really be too much of a good thing.
But, all in all, this is one of my favorites by this author.

I love Lora Leigh's Breeds. She writes strong characters, interesting plots and HOT romantic scenes. But I have to admit that I wasn't looking forward to this book; the advance blurb didn't "hook" me and I just didn't know if I would find either character interesting enough to keep me engaged for almost 400 pages. Boy, was I wrong.
I'm not going to recap the plot -- I've already seen a half-dozen reviews on this site with excellent recaps. Instead, I'll focus on what made this book stand out for me
* the continuation of the Breed "universe". I appreciate how Ms. Leigh finds a way to add new details about the creation of the Breeds and weaves additional discoveries about their abilities and characteristics into each book. This technique allows her to provide explanations to new readers, but keeps the veterans like me engaged by providing new details in each book.
* the heroine is the most likeable one we've seen in a while. I've noticed a trend toward uber-bitchy women in Ms. Leigh's Breed stories over the past couple of books (Harmony, Scheme, Dawn). But Anya is much more likeable, even when she is feuding with her mate, without falling into the "Mary Sue" trap of being a total pushover. Over the course of the story, you see the evolution of her character from an innocent teenager to a vibrant adult woman, struggling to grown into her own skin. In fact, I think she has a much stronger character arc than her hero, who doesn't really seem to progress until the final three chapters.
* the twist in the romantic tension between the two leads. While previous stories have dealt with forced separations of mates, in this book the heroine petitions the Breed tribunal for a separation. This is both an interesting insight into the inner workings of the Breed Alliance (and how they have created a social order that parallels the human military justice system), and a new, fresh way to introduce the level of romantic tension that makes the final reconciliation all the more welcome.
All in all, I found this to be a very satisfying read and one that would be both a good introduction to the series AND a welcome continuation of it.
This book is one of my favorites! It tells a story that involves love and pain trial and error. It tells how mistakes are made and corrected. This is life. It isn't just a HEA full of gushy gushy feels. Love it! Thank you!
This series is ever changing. It began with more erotica than romance, grew in the romance department, and became a series that I could not put down. This book is different because instead of continuing with the trend of more romance, it is a story with a lot of hurt and anger. It's not a bad story, change is good when things start becoming predictable, but I can see how some readers might be put off by the constant turmoil within this story. I did like the read although it was not one of my favorites of the breed series. I do think that breed fans should give it a chance because it is the start of information about the coyote/coya mating. If you are as focused on getting as much details about Leigh's breeds as I am, it's a definite must read.
