This was the perfect book for me to pick up and dive into after reading a "meh" book. I binged this book in an entire day and was entertained throughout. The basis of the plot is slightly predictable but for me it made it easier to "shift" into the world and just truly enjoy the book. If you are looking for a quick paced shifter read with spice this book is for you, plus that cliffhanger!
What I loved about this book:
* Enemies to lovers
*Shifter romance
*Non-Alpha ahole
*Strong female MC that is a protector
*Side characters that I would also love a book about (hint hint)
What I didn't care for:
*Rebecca!
Book 2 can't come soon enough.
I received an earc in exchange for an early review from Hidden Hollow Tours and the Authors.

The plot is very interesting, I think this is the first time I read a story where there's a female alpha. This story is pretty well written and well paced with great characters and an interesting world building.
I really like Bailey, who is a female alpha on the run from her own pack. I understand her struggle trying to hide who she really is and survive in a pack who doesn't treat her right. It's no wonder she didn't trust others easily which is why she was wary when she first enter Derrick's pack.
There's Derrick, the leader of the nice pack. He's a good alpha and always put the need of his pack before his own. Although, to be honest I didn't like it when he has to use his Alpha power to everyone else most of the time trying to show control. On the other side I understand his struggle, being a new alpha he still needs to learn how to assert dominance and make a united pack.
Derrick's pack is a healthy and strong pack which is nothing like Bailey's old pack. The male didn't abuse their power to others and that people has the same rights and freedom to do anything they want. They also take care of each other.
I really love how Bailey find friendship with Lyra and it turns stronger as the story progress!
I have to warn you all with the big cliffhanger at the end! I can't believe I have to wait for the next book to find out what happen next!!
Bailey is not the same scared female who run away so I'm curious to find out what will Bailey do ?!
Overall, this is an enjoyable and entertaining read. The ending tells the readers that Bailey's story is just about to begin and promises a lot more interesting things to come!
If you're looking to read a light reading with paranormal aspect and enemies to lovers trope, you might want to check this one out!
A huge thank you to the author, Kacey Lee for giving me this digital copy of the book in exchange for my honest opinion, also thank you to Hidden Hollow Book Tour for allowing me to be a part of the book tour!

What a turn of events. This is a page turning slow burning with desire can’t touch this novel. I’d say it was pretty equal as far as the main characters on who is the dominating (male or female ).
I couldn’t read fast enough trying to squeeze in all I could between work and my puppy.
Fair warning it ends is a blood cliffhanger that nearly killed me knowing I have wait for book 2.

4.5 stars. I took away half of a point for that cliffhanger. *internally cries*
SIDE NOTE: Minor hints that could potentially be considered spoilers so be mindful before reading..
Overall, the story was strong. Great characters, the plot was fun though I personally found it a bit predictable in certain areas, though I wasn't expecting what happened at the end (her submission) Pacing was nice and not too fast or bogged down. Everything had a purpose and I didn't find any plot holes or confusion so overall it was a great read.
I LOVED BAILEY! Seriously, strong female *alpha* werewolf is what I never knew I needed in a story like this. She has to hide her true self and throughout the book struggles with it. I really can't wait to see how she flourishes as the story continues in book two. I want to see her wolf take charge!!
Derrick was also great and super yummy! I did, sometimes, find him a bit overbearing in the sense that he felt like he had to assert his dominance over EVERYONE. I get that he is alpha and that's what an alpha does, but the second he is questioned even by his Beta, it's like he wants to rip off their head. I do get the reasoning behind this though so it really wasn't an issue for me.
Plot, I really liked the overall premise. The world building and such was pretty spot on two. I can't say that I found much I didn't like with this, so kudos to the authors!!
I definitely recommend this for any UF/PNR lovers. It was a quick and easy read and one that I thoroughly enjoyed and look forward to reading the next one. Let's just hope that one doesn't end in a horrific cliff hanger too because my heart cant take it!! LOL

An overall good easy read! Bailey is a fun main character with some spunk and Derrick is the epitome of a male alpha wolf. It is a quick read, werewolf/beginning romance fantasy with a dash of action. I am looking forward to the next book!

I absolutely loved this book, I couldn’t put it down!!! I love a strong female lead and it was absolutely delivered. Can we also talk about dual POV 😍 I’m sad I’ll have to wait a year for the next book counting down the days already!!!!! I loved the development of Bailey, the main female she was a true badass. She is a true alpha and I cannot wait to see how this plays out with Derrick in his role also as alpha. They will make the strongest leaders for a pack and like I haven't said it enough but I cannot wait for the next book to come out. I loved these characters and I loved how the story played out.
