Description
She never wanted to be a wolf. That won’t keep her mate from claiming her.
Taken captive, held prisoner, and turned against her will by the leader of a rogue pack, Shannon Livingston was just about to be sold at auction. Then, an alpha wolf decided she belonged to him.
The moment James Norris sets eyes on Shannon, bare and on display, yet still fierce and proud, the former special-ops agent knows the beautiful spitfire is his mate. Disobedience quickly earns Shannon a sound spanking, and despite her fury at his bold dominance, her helpless arousal is undeniable as she is claimed hard and thoroughly with her well-punished bottom still burning.
But when another band of wolves attacks the auction before James has time to put his rescue plan into action, mistrust born of harsh experience leads Shannon to seize her chance to escape. When her mate tracks her down, will she remain defiant or surrender to her instincts at last?
Publisher’s Note: Captured and Claimed is a stand-alone novel which is the eighth entry in the Wayward Mates series. It includes spankings and sexual scenes. If such material offends you, please don’t buy this book.

Well-written, fast-paced and steamy book for sure. For me, Delta James never disappoints. JT Farrell’s narration makes it all the more better

What a great ending to a wonderful series. I suggest starting with book 1 because each book in some way blends into the next book. The alpha of the rogue wolves was horrible—very smooth, but horrible piece of work. It was nice to find out what happened to Shannon. She was very strong and did not give up. I don’t know that I would have been as strong or lasted as long as she did. It was awesome how the women snuck away from their mates to go all the way to Canada to free the women. Before the auction, James realizes Shannon is his fated mate. He pays $500,000 just so none of the other bidders could touch or spend time with her prior to the auction except him. The women had everything planned to the last detail except how Shannon would react. I am glad the rogue alpha got what he should have gotten ages ago. James’ father was a b@stard and he got exactly what he deserved. I am truly sorry to see the Wayward Mates series come to an end. Maybe Ms. James will decide to update us on the couples in a future book. I would highly recommend listening to or reading this series. As always, JT Farrell did an awesome job with the narration. He is the voice of the Wayward Mates series.

I listened to the audiobook. The narration was ok, but I think it would have been better had their been a dual or duet narration with a woman narrating strong, fiesty Shea’s dialogue.
Is this really the last book in the Wayward Mates series? I will miss looking forward to the next installment.
I couldn’t imagine Shea ever coming around to being turned, much less believing and accepting she was James’ fated mate.
I loved the women’s strength, intelligence, and loyalty, and bravery. Also how their mates doted on them, felt protective, but ultimately acknowledged their skills and intelligence. One very positive thing about James and Shea is that they liked each other. Shea grew to trust James and he gave her the time to do so.
This book had some really creepy players in it and I appreciated that they were handled.
A book was full of action, intrigue, romance, and it had a number of funny moments. A very enjoyable read.
I voluntarily listened to and reviewed this audiobook.
