Awakened By The Wolf (Wayhas of Walker's Run, #1)

by Kristal Hollis

"In the Alpha's bed

Exiled from his pack by his father, Brice Walker has secretly come home to visit his ailing grandmother. Instead, he discovers a human and very desirable female sleeping in his bed! The attraction is instant. But the mysterious intruder seems determined to resist his Southern charm and Alpha allure...

For Brice, fiercely independent Cassie represents not only a chance to build a new life in Walker's Run but she's also his one true mate. Yet when she witnesses the savage justice of the wolves, can Cassie accept Brice as man, beast and her true love?

I have issues See when a woman says "not in my bed" and runs away from you at first chance, even going so far as to break glass to get away as hard as possible, you respect that choice and you bloody well respect her.  This is not a good way to start a relationship and I would be reluctant to get involved with this self-involved whiny man child who is supposedly a successful lawyer but can't understand that sometimes he has to negotiate a deal rather than ride roughshod over things.
 
Yes the story pulled me through and was well written but consent was a frequent road bump that made the whole difficult to appreciate.  Like many others of this type that I've read recently, it was problematic but had some good aspects.
 
Now I could put it in werewolf if I had it, there were scenes in the woods (she runs into woods to get away from him at first), so In the Dark Dark Woods would work, also supernatural and honestly he falls into future monster, despite the werewolf thing, she's going to have to work at her self-hood and hard.
 
Dark Dark Woods it is.
