foreverbeautifulbooks's review against another edition
2.0
This was one of those books that had a huge amount of potential, and got totally lost in bad story plotting.
I mean, honestly, what is not to love about a chick that gets to have a steaming hot orgy with 11 werewolf shifters, all pretty much Alpha dominant, and then gets to pick one at the end?
I thought NOTHING could go wrong with this!
Well, I was wrong.
Everything went wrong. The author wrote the heroine to be strong, yet had her weepy and confusing 99.9% of the time. She doesn't freak out at ALL over the fact that SHE is not only a werewolf, but these dudes that hi-jacked her are. Oh, and one slipped into her room and night and wrapped his giant alpha body around her and wouldn't let her go. The author didn't really streamline this scene and I was left feeling way creepy and not sexy at all. Anyways, the werewolf thing is totally normal and she accepts it instantly. The orgy is an issue for all of five seconds before she just trusts a group of 11 strangers and is like "Oh, well if you say you won't do anything I don't want to do, then I trust you!"
The relationship building was weak and I got very little connection to who she ended up with. There was also a whole pregnancy scenario that came out of no where and I didn't even realize it game out of no where, and one started to man handle her, and I was so damned confused I had to reread the whole scene and even then I was like ummmmm WTF just happened.
The villains were too easily handled, the sex/orgy scene would have been more hot and I would have cared if the author spent more time world building. But instead we are tossed in it and TOLD we have to believe all this, and to buy the chemistry she is selling us. NOPE! Not that easy! Not in my paranormal universe.
Oh! They refused to give her more time to accept all this because "We sent you a certified letter, we are sorry you didn't get it but you just have to hump us all or our race is doomed."
*HEADDESK*
I wanted to like this book so bad because I'm such a junkie for multiple partner situations.
For me, this one was an epic fail.

I liked this story, it was smokin' hawt!!!. I didn't really like Chandra or think that her accepting everything so quickly was a good representation of a strong independent woman. Sure, she could kick ass due to some martial arts training, but she just didn't catch my sympathies or interest. I loved all the guys though and I was wishing like crazy the entire time I could have been her. They were gentle, loving and perfect.
80% of it was devoted to raw pure sexin' and even though the lovin' was extremely enticing, I thought there could have been more conflict in the story line. It just all seemed too easy. And sometimes it jumped around, like they were outside but then suddenly they were upstairs int he bedroom and it never said how or it said a few times how there were 12 men instead of 11.

Not for the faint of heart erotica. Rare female werewolf must have sex with all 11 men in her pack before choosing a mate.
