I highly recommend this book but the first two books must be read first ( Wounded Kiss and Gentle Scars). I’ve been reading the first two books in order to read the third one and I love the couples !
I received EARC from Willow Winters and this book is spiccyyyyyyy….. I’m loving this paranormal world and the trio between Caleb Dom and Lizzie is amazing in this book

This one takes place straight after Gentle Scars, make sure you read books one and two, first. The last book added vampires to the story and this time we got some witches + we got to see some badass fighting action in this one! Loved seeing a new depth to all the relationships, as well as some of their problems and worries smoothed out, or started to be worked on. Can’t wait for book 4, Broken Fate, later this year.
“Fate decided to give me a mate. One person to love for my entirety. I will love him with everything I have, but I will live much longer than he will. I will watch him grow old, while I am ageless. I will hold his hand when he dies, yet I will live.”

PNR isn’t usually my go to genre but I am absolutely living this series! Primal Lust has a little bit of everything! Definitely a steamy read and we find out more about what’s going on the blood banks.
All of the mates are crazy in love & passionate about each other but just how far would you go for the one you love?? Would you give up the life you know to stay with your mate??
Questions still need to be answered and I can’t wait for Broken Fate

It was really bad.
There are 7 POVs in this series and that's 5 too many.
We barely begin to have an insight in one character's head that the POV changes.
It's all over the place and I believe there's at least 2 more books (Lev and Jude) so how many POVs will we get because nothing with these 3 couples are finished.
When I began I thought we would follow Grace and her journey as a mate, we don't. All her insecurities and fears are forgotten once she goes "in heat".
Nothing in these books make you believe werewolves can love. It's pure chemical mating and lust.
That's why werewolves are my least favourite supernatural trope.
Also I got fooled because I thought it would be a vampire book when I begin the first book "Wounded Kiss", I always associate kiss to vampires and not werewolves.

This is book 3 of the To Be Claimed series.
This books follows the plot line of the first and second books.
The story follows three interwoven love stories between Grace and Devin, Lizzie, Caleb and Dom, and Veronica and Vince. Gracie is a human mated to the Devin the Alpha. Lizzie is latent wolf mated to Caleb and Dom the betas of the pack. Veronica is a vampire mated to Vince a werewolf.
The book follows the plot line that was presented in the second book of a threat to the supernatural community. Devin's pack does everything they can to put an end to a potential supernatural war by dealing with the vampires that are causing most of the problems. This book really focused on the plot line of the series, unlike book 2.
The book has a perfect balance of the plot and the sexual relationships between all the characters and their mates. I enjoyed reading this book and I can't wait to read the next book in the series when it comes out!
Thank you to Willow Winters team for an arc in exchange for an honest review.

I liked this story and I enjoyed reading it but I will say maybe the writing style or pacing isn't for me. It was hard to keep track of everyone - not that the storyline was confusing. It was that I would get invested in a couple during their POV chapters but the next chapter would switch to a different couple and I wanted more of the what has happening with each couple. It is nice to see everyone and their relationships progressing throughout the books but I found at times, I wanted to stay with a Devin or I would want to stay with the MFM relationship and see if her wolf would come out. Overall the story is good and engaging but it is very short and very fast. I found myself wanting more explanations or world building or something.

WW kept her promise and delivered werewolf porn. But don't be turned away because it's porn with a plot.
I love the growth among characters as they find their ways and manage their destinies. Every character introduced is engaging and utterly fascinating.
My only complaint is that there is a year wait between each book (book 4 comes out in Fall 2023.) The wait tends to lead to disinterest on my part but rereading is always a wonderful option.
Come explore the delicious paranormal world WW has created just for us.

'A prime example of why Willow Winters is one of the best authors around. Primal Lust is sexy, raw, gritty, and everything we love about Willow and her work. Something to really sink your teeth into...literally, wink wink' -TheBritishBibliophile_
Thank you to Wildfire Marketing Solutions for sending me an ebook Advanced Readers Copy for me to read and leave an honest review.
--------------------------
Since reading an ARC of Primal Lust, I was kindly sent the other two books previously in the series. Though I might have read them all in the wrong order (book three, then book one and two), I'm basing my review of Primal Lust based on what I have now read in its entirety. Thank you to Wildfire Marketing Solutions for these two surprise ebooks, it was very generous and thoughtful of you all.
Now, on with the review.
Although it was close to the release day, the second I saw a Willow Winters sign-up on the Wildfire Marketing Solutions website, I knew I had to sign up to read some smutty, wolf/vampire goodness! It's been a while since I've read anything were-ish, so this was a read--and series--much welcome and greatly anticipated to be knocking those literary socks off.
Primal Lust did just that!
This is the climax read, if you will. Every teasing, edging moment has been leading up to what would be an unforgettable climax. Well as we all know, sometimes we can go another round and though this story is far from over (for now), it was a satisfactory climax with the promised gift of a hint at a happily ever after for all. Fate, however, will reveal more to come this time next fall with Broken Fate and Jude's story.
I cannot wait to see what fate--and Willow--has in store for all of us but until then, there's plenty to keep us interested in reliving the books so far to keep the story rolling in
pleasurable waves until our next climax.
Short but steamy (not sweet), Willow delivers a story that gives us way more than we could have ever anticipated. Though some may be used to her dark, alpha-male, gritty stories, Primal Lust in its own right, much like the other two books in the series so far, offers up something in its own league that is equally as pleasurable as those kinds of stories. Besides, vampires have held the stage long enough when it comes to romance novels, it's time for wolves! (Yes, I know vampires feature here in this series, but my point remains). Plus, these are not just your average wolves. They're Willow's Wolves, which means they come with added bite , which you'll discover for yourselves when you open the covers to this read and the series.
Is this book one you should absolutely put in your TBR immediately? Yes! Is the series one you should also add to your TBR immediately? Yes! Is this a series worthy of being on everyone's bookshelves? Yes! Notice a pattern? You'll soon see why I--like the characters within this book--are saying nothing but yes....yes...yes!!!
4.5 stars!

This book quickly became one of my favorites in my Willow Winters collection. It has romance, darkness, werewolves, smut (to put it mildly lol) and is an escape I didn't even know I needed.
Willow Winters continues to write page turning books that will always capture my attention. This was a great addition to the collection.
