Milo & Rowan are dropped into Shannon Mae's hellound alternate universe this time in HELLHOUND AU. A chaotic human vigilante meets a cinnamon roll hellhound and they couldn't make a better pair.
From the blurb:
I'm a hellhound who doesn't love murdering evil people. Well, of course I'd like to see them dead, but I'd rather not deal with talking to them or getting messy. I like a nice, orderly existence. Milo (who I still think may be a chaos demon) is the opposite of orderly, yet I can't seem to stay away from him. If he wants me to come on a few jobs with him, I'm happy to help. After all, he does all the awkward talking and stuff. I just get to be scary looking.
Milo
I'm not sure how I ended up becoming an assassin, but I don't mind the work. When I meet a sexy, redheaded man who may be the worst liar I ever met (he totally burned down that cabin), I decide maybe I'll keep him around. Yeah, his cover stories suck, but he seems to be good at scaring people. Must be those colored contacts he wears, because no one actually has flames in their eyes. Right?

Molly Otto's review:
Leave it to Shannon Mae to make the human a chaos demon incarnate, and the hellhound to be the sensible one in the relationship. Milo & Rowan this go around are thrust into Shannon Mae’s Hellhounds are on this plane alternate universe. It was fun to see another pack of her world, that just felt the vibe of the Mystic Falls Pack, yet at the same time had their own spin to the world. These two as usual were a blast to be a part of the world, and you could feel all of these authors got a similar feel for the MC’s just with their own flare put upon the characters and some of the side characters. Ehtel is a hoot that I wish I had someone like in my life and it was fun to see the octogenarians be Milos accomplices in their own feisty way and to have Rowan have a family who love and support him while driving him up the dang wall all at the same time. Seriously adoring each one of these alternate universes and how the spin Milo and Rowan on their heads each and every time.
SNik's review:
Part of a multi-author series (Because Canon Sucks), but can be read as a standalone. Paranormal. Mates. Size difference. Found family. Dual POV. Heed content warnings.
Take one chaotic assassin working for a group of elderly dogooders and mix with a golden retriever hellhound who doesn’t like gore. When Milo stumbles across Rowan already having taken care of some bad guys he then meanders away, not realizing he has caught the attention of Rowan, and once they become friendly, Rowan begins to tag along to all of Milo’s vigilante jobs.
This was a real humorous foray into the author’s Hellhounds of Paradise Falls universe with two main characters that happily share a mission to do away with evil, are equally as accomplished, and easily fall into a relationship that includes both work and play. There are supportive characters that surround both Milo and Rowan, and the fact that no one bats an eye at discovering supernatural beings was so fun to read. Rowan is sweetly enamoured and Milo is fiercely committed to keeping Rowan, the fact that they are mates is just the cherry on top. A really entertaining Fanfiction that gives a more than satisfying HEA.
Hellhound AU is currently available as an e-book and paperback and can be read as part of your Kindle Unlimited Subscription
