Well... this book is seriously kinky, so if you have a problem with that, this is probably not for you.

I enjoyed it a lot. I liked Taryn and I loved how she didn't take shit from anyone, I love how she did not fall into the typical tropes of jealousy or caring to much about the opinion of people that obviously aren't worth it. I didn't like how much everyone instantly feel for her and how unaware she was of that, but oh well.

Her and Trey were awesome and badass and the smut was off the charts. Well done.

Listened to audiobook.

4.5 stars

This book is filled with very strong characters. Taryn is an alpha in every way, even if she is latent. She is treated as if she is diseased or disabled by pretty much everyone, especially her alpha father. Trey, who is the alpha of a different pack, needs someone to pretend to be his mate while he builds some alliances. He convinces Taryn to pretend to be his mate for a few weeks until after the challenge with this uncle. Trey is considered psycho by pretty much everyone in the werewolf community because he almost killed his alpha father when he was fifteen. Taryn isn’t scared of him and has some great one-liners with him.

Taryn is really funny, sarcastic and isn’t scared of anyone. The bickering that is done throughout the book is enough to make you laugh out loud. These comments are mostly between Taryn and Greta, who is Trey’s very dominate grandmother. Another pack member, Dominic has some “so bad they’re funny” pickup lines that he uses on anyone who’ll listen.

I really enjoyed this book on audio. The narrator was wonderful. She was really able to bring out the snarkiness, emotions and steaminess that are all prominent parts of this story.

My only complaint is the POV seemed to change every paragraph. It is all told in third person, but you didn’t know whose perspective you were in from moment to next. That kept me from giving it a 4.5 stars instead of the 4 stars I gave it. I could also see where some might say there is more sex than plot, but I don’t agree.

In the book blurb there is mention of a “graphic ménage scene”. This is not in the audio version that I listened to. My understand that in print there are two different versions that are available. I saw many complaints about this in reviews on Goodreads, as many didn’t have this scene. Even without this scene, the book is still hot. There is more than enough graphic scenes without the ménage. There is also plenty of dirty talk amongst the pack. It was almost like being in a guys’ locker room. It is probably more graphic than many standard PNR books, but not nearly as much as most erotica books. The narrator really gets into these scenes and doesn’t hold back. If you are not listening with headphones, beware.

I can’t wait to see where book two goes. I love Dante, who is Trey’s Beta, and he is our hero of the next book.
