This book was okay. Instalove reigned supreme, and the plot was very meh. It could have been better.

Little Red Riding Hood retelling with shifters.
This was so predictable! If you like guessing how the plot will resolved within a couple of chapters, you'll love this book!
It was also very slow going; especially for such a short book. The MC was alright, her personality sort of does a 180 near the end.
The love interests were not explored as much as I would have liked. I mean, it's reverse harem, give me smutty scenes galore with them. But nope. One scene each... wasted potential.

A retelling
An interesting retelling of red Riding Hood.
Pretty good. It was enjoyable but could use a bit more development, everything felt rushed.

Fairy tale story. Fairy tale faults
This wasn't a bad book if you enjoy insta-love and attraction. The book starts off well enough with a pretty decent telling of backstory and setting. The main character is likable enough. My only faults with her is that she is a runner. She runs in to trouble and away from trouble, thus setting things up neatly in the story. The guys are likable enough though the hate/love between her and Dagen grew tired fast. There was an attempt at an explanation but it just didn't fit. The story itself was rather short but good. A classic if anything. This story wraps up rather neatly with loose ends being tied. Despite some of the books faults, I would give it 4 stars. It manages to tie everything together in the end and you are left with what reads almost like an adult fairy tale. Short and sweet with typical fairy tale faults.

A fast paced, easy and enjoyable read! Loved this twist of red riding hood. It is RH and has spice, but it wasn’t ’over the top’.

Not a bad read at all! For a little while there I really thought things weren’t going to end well, since books can be pretty predictable at times especially in the romance department. Very well done. I’ll definitely be reading the next one in the series.
