Having been raised in the foster system, Taelyn understands humans but as much as possible shuns their world. Having been adopted into a small wolf pack she prefers to mostly remain with them, where the acceptance and structure give her comfort unlike the human world. She unexpectedly meets Dylan though and everything shifts.
I found this to be an interesting short story and while the paranormal aspects of the world were fairly standard I really enjoyed how Taelyn’s story was somewhat different and refreshing. I personally haven’t read too many stories where a shifter main character has effectively been adopted in and accepted by a non-shifter wolf pack. I found this dynamic to be quite interested and especially in this story I found it to be well written.
The sex scenes were intimate and definitely explicit. I feel readers used to erotic stories should find them enjoyable and satisfying. While the sex is prolific and occurs fairly quickly the author made it seem quite understandable give than Taelyn could certainly feel the mate-bond even though she wanted to give herself time before committing her emotions. Sharing her body was a lot easier than trusting or allowing herself to begin to love Dylan.
While the author did alternate the perspectives between Dylan and Taelyn I personally found it a little harder to connect with Dylan, even though we did get to see things from his perspective as well. I just feel his character was possibly a little more cookie-cutter than Taelyn and so while I liked and enjoyed him I struggled to find something solid to really feel a strong connection to him. This niggle eased a lot for me when we were shown Dylan interacting with his Alpha and later his pack but it took me a little longer than I was expecting to really feel a connection and attachment to him.
With a sexy pace and a really interesting plot I enjoyed this steamy paranormal story. A good, quick read.
