Midnight Wolf by Jennifer Ashley

3.0

Paranormal romance is one of my favorite genres. The action-packed storylines and burning passion are unrealistic enough that readers won't be disappointed when they return to their own lives, yet believable enough that the suspension of disbelief is easy to be absorbed into. I've read a few of Jennifer Ashley's prior works and she never failed to disappoint. Well, that is, until now. While I liked Angus, his son Ciaran, and the female heroine Tamsin, I did not feel the chemistry throughout most of the book. There were a few passionate moments where I absolutely fell in love with Angus and Tamsin as a couple, and I adored the relationship between Tamsin and Ciaran, but I did not feel the pull between Angus and Tamsin until much later in the book, well after they actually get together. Also, Tamsin takes quite a few liberties with Ciaran than Angus (for the most part) completely ignores, such as Ciaran calling her mom so early on and Tamsin agreeing Ciaran can do something that Angus has already said no to. I felt like the three of them coming together as a family should have been more of a conversation or had a bigger "come to" moment between Tamsin and Angus. That said, I enjoyed the friendship between the shifters and how powerful Tamsin was as an individual character. A good read, just not as passionate as I would have expected.
