Wicked Cravings by Suzanne Wright

virgo_reader's review against another edition

3.0

A fun friends to lovers, paranormal shifter story. This is one of my favorite friends to lovers micro-tropes: when the heroine liked the hero as kids and growing up and then after she abandons her crush he realizes he wants her.

I don't understand why each heroine has to give the hero a weird nickname (in this case, Popeye). The POV is still a little jarring but I'm getting used to it.

I saw this book at the top of the "fated mates" category on goodreads. I read the book before this and then this one and both books are way, way too long. This book could easily be half its length and tell the same amount of story.

So many things don't make sense because most explanations are given on the spot in a very tell, don't show kind of way. The sex scenes are very dull. I had hope this might be a step up from book 1 but it's really very similar, in a bad way. I'm good off reading any more of this series.

At points this was very slow and boring. I have to agree with other reviews that this book is very similar to the first and the female MC are basically the same person. They had the same witty/stubborn/bitchy personalities with issues shifting/with their wolf. This book was a struggle bc the chapters are just sooooo long. This could’ve easily have been 40 chapters instead of 20. This wasn’t bad but I didn’t love it.

I wasn't too impressed with this one, mostly because of Dante. The scene where he finally "broke" Jamie down wasn't hot or romantic or emotional, it was blatant manipulation and sexual coercion and left a really bad taste in my mouth.

Writing style not my favorite. Plot bounces around terribly and between POV. Definitely needed more editing to be a cohesive story. It was all over the place.
