Oh, this was a fun one. Short, sweet, and to the point, "Forever Mates: Yuri and Liam" is part of four books in the "Forever Mates" series.

Please don't think I'm starting a joke when I say four gay men walk into a roadhouse because it's not. When they sit down, they al notice the four very big, handsome brothers over by the pool table, and they're all looking at them. All of the big guys feel a pull toward a certain one of the gay men.

Wolf shifters, they realize that they've found their...well..forever mates. The moment Yuri sets eyes on Liam, he's head over heels in love. He feels the urge to hold close and protect him, and Liam is happy to let him. All of the brothers take their mates outside so that they can get to know them better. The trouble begins rather quickly. The pack that Yuri and his brothers belong to doesn't take kindly to gay members because they (supposedly) have an obligation to mate with women and bear children to keep the bloodline going.

Everything takes off from there. There is fighting, abject terror, and sex. Lots of really good sex. Yuri and Liam have a great chemistry together.

It may have been insta love, but it felt like it was an important part of the story. Most shifter stories have that. As soon as they set eyes on their fated mates, they just KNOW. I loved how protective Yuri was with Liam. How he could carry him around and have him in his lap without straining himself. I also love how Liam allows this. There's not fighting it here. They are the perfect couple. They compliment each other. Their love scenes are both hot and romantic. Yuri sure knows how to woo a man :-)

Along with the story of Yuri and Liam, we have the stories of Yuri's brothers and Liam's friends. Each are given just a hint of what their relationships are like. However, it doesn't get in the way of the main plot. It was just the right amount for you to be able to feel as if you could move into one of the other books smoothly. Personally, I've not read the other three books, but I will be doing that very soon. I have a goal, and it's to read every single book that Stormy Glenn has written. She's one of my favorites, and she never lets me down.

I highly recommend that you check this book out. It's a good one.
