Redemption (The Rending Book 1) by Cara Carnes
Mira grew up in a savage tract of existence known as Hell’s Highway—a parcel of land for genetically impure humans (Impures) cast out during a savage battle between humanity’s government (the NAH) and the Paraspecies. When a cease fire was declared, the two opposing sides retreated and regrouped, but the fight for survival had just begun for Impures forced to exist within a kill or be prey existence.
As a runner for The Alliance, Mira ran messages and provisions back and forth between her camp and Redemption—a bartering outpost created by the Paraspecies to help Impures within Hell’s Highway. But for the past two years Mira has been a prisoner of war, detained and tortured in an unsanctioned NAH facility within the lawless lands of Hell’s Playground. Now free, she must risk her life to fulfill a promise made to a fellow prisoner—travel to Redemption and enlist the aid of the Paraspecies. Returning to the outpost, though, means reuniting with the Alpha wolf she’d once hoped to have a future with.
As Quadrant Alpha of the most dangerous section of Paraspecies land, the last thing Adrik needs is the Impure from his past suddenly returning. He ripped apart Hell’s Highway searching for her two years ago, and his pack reaped the consequences. Now, with a civil war threatening on his southern border, the constant battles with the succubae on his eastern border, and the latest political nightmare from Command Central he doesn’t have time to wander Hell’s Playground searching for a secret facility that doesn't exist.
But the opportunity to spend time with the Impure he’d once intended to mate proves too tempting. Together they must heal the wounds and find a way to survive the dangers awakened.
Author’s Note: This work was previously titled Hell’s Playground and appeared in the Under a Wolf Moon anthology. This version has been expanded, retitled and reedited.

Sexy and combustible,
This review is from: Redemption (The Rending Book 1) (Kindle Edition)
*I received this book free in exchange for an honest review*
At first, I got slightly annoyed that the wolves continuously kept jumping to conclusions. They were stubborn and it was angering, but, sexy! A stubborn handsome man, mmmhmmm... I'll take it!
Mira was a strong woman and I loved it! She wasn't a simpering damsel, clinging to a strong shifter man. This was a great story with twisting details of a new world. The action and sex combine for a combustible romance! I can't wait to read the next story!
