This isn't one of those books that dumps a lot of information. Everything you read & told has a reason! The character & world building in here are pretty good too! I did find the book a little predictable but I did NOT see the ending to be the way it was! So that was a nice twist & cliffhanger! The pacing was also pretty good! Over all it was a pretty good book! If you like Jaymin Eve, Kelly St. Clare, or Leia Stone then this book is just for you!

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.
