What would you do if a simple errand takes a deadly twist, turning you from cautious prey to dangerous predator? Someone is trying to send a deadly message to Mason, arranging the deaths of those he loves and it puts the entire pack and Alpha on high alert. Darcy understands the primal instincts driving her beloved Mason’s commands. With the help of those he sets as protectors, she learns about herself and the things she’ll need to help support her Alpha and pack. When events turn dire however, one truth offers her strength – once given, oaths are unbreakable … even if it means risking it all.Belinda Boring's first published book originally started out as three separate novella's that she eventually combined to create her first full length book. While the paranormal genera isn't my normal read, I knew when the book came out that I had to read it because Belinda is my niece.
While I enjoyed the premise of her book, the first time I read her novella, I was extremely confused. I ended up having to read it twice. My confusion came from the main character Darcy interacting with her inner wolf. Again, I have never read books about werewolves so I wasn't use to the lingo and such. Once I figured out what was going on, I didn't have any additional issues. I also noticed that when Boring published the book, she did not go back and create transitions between each of the novellas. You can tell where one novella ends and the next one begins. It has been a while since I've read this book so she may have corrected the issue.
Boring has created a wonderful storyline for the whole series. A quick trip to the store ends up becoming a kidnapping and murder and the after effects of that trip. The bond between the main characters, Darcy and Mason is very strong and the love Mason feels for Darcy is very palpable. Boring did decide to throw her readers for a loops with a cliffhanger ending that no one saw coming. The ending definitely created a "must read" vibe for the 2nd book in the series.
Happy reading!
