Tempting Tate (Copper Creek Shifters Book 2) Kindle Edition
Hollis: No ties, no clans, no mate; that’s the way I choose to live my life. I don’t want anyone having power over me in any way, and if anyone thinks that just because Tate is my mate, I have no choice but to stay with him, they’re mistaken.
When lynx shifter Hollis Roby is sent to Copper Creek to assist with a murder investigation, the last thing he expects to find is his fated mate; especially since he doesn’t even believe fated mates exist. However, that’s the only explanation for the irresistible pull he feels toward clan Beta Tate Decker.
The deeper they go into the investigation, the more obvious it becomes that there’s more going on in Copper Creek than a simple homicide. Trapped in the middle between a corrupt Council and a human supremacist group, the clan is counting on Hollis and Tate to figure out who’s responsible. Not only for the murders, but for the other odd happenings in the area, as well.

About the author

Jacki James has been saying she was going to write a book since she was sixteen and wrote fanfiction (before fanfiction had a name) about her favorite Rockstar. She is a believer in love of all kinds but MM romance is her favorite by far. She has a romantic heart and a dirty mind and likes to write stories that let both shine.
When she isn’t writing she is either creating beautiful pieces of glass art or reading. She is an animal lover and dreams of having a small hobby farm where she can raise goats, chickens and organic veggies. In the meantime, she lives in town with her two cats, awesome husband, and two college-aged kids.

- Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2025Second in a series, and second that I've read, James enriches the story of the Copper Creek clan 8n this novel. A new fated mating that has some resistance; several crimes that need solutions; and more of the life of the clan keep the action flowing with chuckles of humor.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 5, 2019Really enjoyed Tate and Hollis’s story. Looking forward to the expansion of this universe. Hopefully it’ll be soon. I really enjoyed the first book, and look forward to seeing how the series develops.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2022Well written story and well developed characters! I can't wait for Jackie James to go back to Copper Creek and help these shifter people! Love this whole series!
- Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2022This was a sweet fated mates book with a bit of mystery. I loved that even though their animals were on board, Hollis and Tate took a bit longer to accept that they were mates. I also love the whole clan as family feel that runs throughout the stories. So far, I haven’t read a book by Jacki James that I didn’t love!
- Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2019I really enjoyed Tate and Hollis' book. I liked that neither man was who the other envisioned, but they fit together perfectly. It was fitting that Hollis was the one who "gave in" to the Fates first - though he seemed the stronger at first, I liked that Tate would have been strong enough to survive having his mate leave, probably because he had the support of the clan.
It's interesting that Copper Creek is becoming a stronger clan with each book, despite the efforts of members of the Council to discredit and weaken them. It'll be very interesting to find out what happens next.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2023Deputy Tate and Beta shifter clan has big shoes & responsibility to fill. He meets council rep and investigation if a murder. Tate knows there a hidden agenda. To see the two question and prevent fate is dangerous and leads to big disvoveries. M M romance
- Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2021Loved the guys in book one and same for book two. Just shows love will find a way and an Alpha's life is never easy. Loved the drama and Hollis and Tate checking it out. Hope this series continues.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2022Tate is looking for his mate when a big case comes up. Hollis never wanted to join a clan. He's been burnt enough. How can this end without tragedy?

4.0 out of 5 stars Shifter mystery
Great read , lots of mystery and suspense. Hollis and Tate didn't want to be fated mates and fought it, but the more the investigation into the murders kept them together, the closer they became. It was inevitable, fate as they say, won.

5.0 out of 5 stars Zweiter Teil
... und mindestens so gut wie der Start der Reihe. Diesmal geht es hauptsächlich um Tate und Hollis, bei denen es anfangs so gar nicht nach einem Happy End aussieht. Zum Glück ändert sich das noch. Leider gibt's noch keinen dritten Teil der Reihe, so dass ich mich wohl noch etwas gedulden muss bis die Geschichte weitergeht. Schön zu lesen, nette Figuren, ich mag diese Reihe.
