I loved the conslusion to the Lone Wolf series. Onyx and Dagen tied everything together beautifully! I truly didn't want the book to end. There's a few things I would have like to see differently with Charles and Solange. Other than that a solid 5 stars for me, this is one that I would read again.

We get the rest of legend, and it was a whopper! I loved how our characters knew what was expected of them, but thought themselves too smart and strong to give into it. I loved how they found that they were useless to resist, but discounted it to forces beyond their control. I loved that they finally figured it all out, and still, realized they need to be honest with themselves and each other. And of course, I loved that we got the full story on how and why the lone wolf legacy brought them all together, and will keep them safe and in love <3

Tempting the Black Wolf is the exciting conclusion to NJ Walters’s Lone Wolf series.

The author puts an interesting spin of the concept of fated mates here, and I thought that the push-pull dynamic between Onyx and Dagen was interesting to read, even though it became a bit repetitive over the course of the book. But I liked that they were both sort of fighting their connection at first and really kind of interrogated the implications of their bond and how that would affect their battle with Solange.

That being said, I was slightly underwhelmed by the climax of the story. There was so much build-up to the showdown that its execution felt pretty anticlimactic. Especially given the fact that this was kind of teed up throughout the rest of the series.

If you have enjoyed the series thus far, you should definitely finish it up. And if you love a “let’s try to fight fate and see what happens” microtrope, you will be left feeling satisfied.

This is the third book in the Lone Wolf Legacy series. In this book we meet the black wolf, Dagen Kern. He is a man of many talents. Dagen is loyal, stubborn, cautious, knowledgeable and very suspicious of others intentions. Onyx, a mage, is his match in almost every way. She too is stubborn, cautious, intelligent, and leery of others. Both have spent their lives planning for their greatest mission, to save the world from an unimaginable evil. These two had some serious growing to do. Neither one wanted to give an inch, but in order to work together someone had to let go. There were times when I wanted to knock some sense into them, especially Dagen. There were plot twists that had me gasping and shaking my head. The evil that they were up against had no limits to their depravity. I was invested in this couple, in their story and their mission. I couldn't put it down. The White and Gray Wolves did make an appearance, that was a nice bonus. Part of me is hoping that this series isn't complete. I will definitely continue reading books by this author.

I went into this book under the impression that, while it was the third in a series, it was a standalone and could be read solo. For me, it was challenging to follow without any prior context of the characters or conflict. There were a lot of references to events that transpired in the previous books, and I think if I had read those first, I would have gotten a lot more out of this. The FMC is magical, independent and brave, the MMC is broody and cold (til he’s not!). There is a magic system, fated mates, werewolf lore, and this book also contains mature spice.

The Most Powerful Wolf Of Them All!

At last the long awaited book to finish off this amazing trilogy!

A magical action packed sizzling read that I couldn’t put down. Dagen didn’t trust his mate but then he didn’t trust anyone but slowly their connection was taking over and slowly they learned to trust each other but would Dagen still trust her when she revealed her biggest secret.

What a super fantastic series finale and fantastic conclusion to the series.

I really cannot recommend this book or this series enough.

I voluntarily read and reviewed this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

The conclusion to The Lone Wolf Series is here! With Onyx and Dagen figuring out their part in e everything, we see everything coming together and falling apart for people's plans. They fight the bond and don't want to tie themselves to each other more as the other wolves have chosen, but they're realizing that may not be the answer.

Both are fierce and independent, and Dagen knows that Onyx doesn't need him, but his wolf has decided that he definitely needs her. As they fight, they realize that they've been lying to themselves. The question is, is it too late? This was a great way to end the series.

This was a satisfying end to the Lone Wolf trilogy. The black wolf, the most powerful of all, doesn’t trust his fated mate or want her but they must work together to destroy Solange for good. Onyx isn’t human though, she’s a mage, which makes it even harder for Dagen to trust her. More magic, more spice, and enemies to lovers. Fun read! I received an ARC for my honest opinion.

I’ve been waiting for this one since the mysterious broker showed up in the last story.
Dagen is the Black Wolf. The last and most powerful lone wolf.

“It’s not fair. I’m always cold.” “Let me warm you.” He bit back the word “forever.”

Onyx is a mage with a huge secret. Together these two prepared for the epic battle against good and evil.
This trilogy has been fantastic and I have been invested since the first book. It’s just got better and better. This was an amazing conclusion and I can’t wait to see what comes next.

Loved this book! This is a satisfying conclusion to the Lone Wolf trilogy that does not disappoint. It's filled with lots of action, magic, and plenty of sexy times, as Onyx and the black wolf form a tremendous alliance. Neither trusts the other, even as they're forced to rely on each other.

This novel kept me on the edge of my seat and turning pages just as quickly as possible. Fans of the genre will love this book. While part of a series, this is a stand alone novel, however it's so good that you really owe it to yourself to read them all. The author is on my must read authors' list.

Nonstop action, intrigue, and sizzle as we head to the inevitable final battle between the evil mage and the black lone wolf. Does not disappoint, you won't put it down until the end, when you stop holding your breath and remember to breath.
