Wasn't sure about this book. Iron was an idiot luckily Bella was not.

First novella in the Blue Collar Wolves Series and book five in the multi author Mating Season Series.
Having read the Mating Season entries by [a:V. Vaughn|10913441|V. Vaughn|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1524924995p2/10913441.jpg], [a:Emma Storm|8189971|Emma Storm|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/f_50x66-6a03a5c12233c941481992b82eea8d23.png] and [a:Kenzie Cox|14101625|Kenzie Cox|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/f_50x66-6a03a5c12233c941481992b82eea8d23.png], the Blue collar Wolves series are the best crafted stories and characterisation. Given the short length of the novella format (each book can be read in less than two hours) it’s difficult to convey a fully realised set of characters and have a cohesive plot to drive the coming together of the protagonists.
With [b:Iron|25735523|Iron (Blue Collar Wolves, #1)|Ronin Winters|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1435810020s/25735523.jpg|45574484], [a:Ronin Winters|14105722|Ronin Winters|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png], delivers a great story in the novella format, by having Iron and his true mate Bella being friends since childhood, which gives the author leeway to do away with the getting to know you exposition and insta love format normally neccassary in a romance novella.
Iron and Bella are both interesting and engaging characters you want to get their HEA. The plot setting which set the scene for the secondary characters’ stories made me want to read the rest of this series. The novella format is not my favourite, but Ronin did a fabulous job here. The book wasn’t quite four stars as there were a lot of grammatical and spelling errors, and it was too short with no satisfactory epilogue, though reading [b:Bella's Tease|26832391|Bella's Tease (Blue Collar Wolves, #4)|Ronin Winters|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1443484752s/26832391.jpg|46864246] helped to alleviate that.
All round a nice little read and well worth the effort and price, but some attention to proofing required.

You'd thinking knowing who your mate was from childhood would be great, woundn't you. Not for poor Iron. This tough guy alpha is wrapped in knots over his mate, the curvy and oh so human Isabella. Due to childhood memories he's trying to deny his true mate because he doesn't want to derail her dreams of being a doctor.
Thankfully Isabella has decided enough is enough. She wants Iron and she's going to have him. Shes dedicated herself to being a doctor but she is fed up of dancing around her feelings for Iron. She is on a mission to claim him!!
Like the tag line states "while Iron may never break, she’s going to do everything possible to make him bend".
Isabella is brilliantly stubborn in her pursuit of Iron. He has no chance against this tenacious female. She knows exactly what he is and she still wants him. Watch those sparks fly!!!!! The initial sex scene between these two is awesome. But when Iron is bit of an arrogant idiot afterwards, trying to get Bella to changer her mind. She takes him to task in an awesome way! Can't wait for more from this series!!!!!!!

The only thing I didn't like about this little novella was that Iron called his mate a b**** multiple times and even his mate called herself that. I just really don't like that at all. Otherwise nice novella.
