Brice Walker and his brother were set upon. His older brother who is the alpha in waiting was killed and Brice spent time in a coma recovering. The guilt riding him is deep and he lives under the misguided assumption that he has been banned from his pack. When his grandmother takes ill Brice sneaks back onto the pack compound to see her. What he finds though is a human occupying his bedroom. The sparks fly from the moment they meet and destiny is set in motion.
Cassie has been fighting the legacy of being the daughter of a trailer trash drunk for years. Slowly but surely she’s worked her way up and out after burying her mom a couple years back. Having worked for Brice’s grandmother as a housekeeper since her early teens she moved in when the trailer park was condemned and she lost the only home she had. Now she works for the family resort while putting herself through college. With granny’s hospitalization, her housing situation is in jeopardy once again. That is unless she can come to some kind of arrangement with Brice.
This book takes you on a roller coaster ride with a little bit of humor, fear, angst and so on. It was a good read and enjoyable. This is the first time I read a book from this author and will continue with the series. I recommend this series it is a good paranormal story.

I have voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book.
“Sometimes our best intentions are our worst mistakes.
I like reading paranormal romances but I'm not that a fan. I actually don't know what to expect from this book. But based on the synopsis, I might enjoy reading this.
I am happy to know that Ms. Kristal Hollis is a psychology degree holder like me. Anyway, here's my review:
Who wouldn't be scared of a wolf? Haha. I like the "wolfan non grata" thing. That is very unique and new.
Brice character is sexy and funny. I'm giving him thumbs up for his confidence, patience and self-control. But I don't like how he's not willing to move on and move forward with his past. He was blinded by lies that made him irrational.
As for Cassie, I don't really know. I kind of don't like her character. Though I like how she thinks that she should be independent and all. But I don't understand why she keeps on dodging Brice every time he invited her for lunch or dinner. Is she portraying a hard-to-get or what? I understand that her mother did something, things just to live but I think it is just a simple invitation and just being kind to her. I hate Cassie for being closed minded. Sometimes her stand of being independent is not good and she became selfish.
The hot and cold game between Brice and Cassie keeps the story going. But also, the twists gave the spice in this story. I did not expect the twist with Hadler and Booker. I definitely did not see that coming. Oh, also, I love how Ms. Kristal use Pavlov's experiment in her book.
Overall, I'm giving this 3.5 star. I felt that the story was slow in the middle and I sometimes hate Cassie for being selfish. But, I really enjoyed reading and I hope to read the next book.
