I received a free advanced copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I didn't realize that this was the first novel from this author until after I'd read it. Often you'll find errors in the flow or plot within an author's first, but that wasn't the case here. The story was gripping right from the start and held momentum all the way through. As Jason - a wolf shifter - introduced Emilia - a half-bear shifter - to a world and family she didn't know existed, we're taken on a wild ride of reluctance, belonging, a fair amount of satisfying sexiness, and that happy end we always hope to stumble across.

While there's a conclusion to this particular couple's story, there is an overreaching plot that will no doubt continue onto other books, so some ends are left hanging. I, for one, am eager to jump into the next. ( )
