Brad: But even through the fog of pain and exhaustion, one thought keeps barging its way into my mind.
Raul.
I'm home. This is what I've wanted from the beginning, so why do I feel homesick? Is it even possible to be homesick for a person? One who doesn't even exist?
He sure as fuck exists in my head, though.

Brad: The Wolf's Mate lies in the center of the circle, taunting me with its glossy depiction of Raul, gleaming golden eyes and all.
God, he's hot. I thought if anything, being back in the real world would help me shake off these feelings, but nope.
They're still there, stubborn and gay as ever.

This book is seriously super funny.
With Raul & Brad apart, I expected to be bored with all the suspense, but that wasn't the case, I found myself completely invested!

With the story split between the real world and inside the book.
In the real world, we get to see Brad and Devon's awesome brother relationship as they work together to solve this magical book mystery (f*cking love Devon!).
Meanwhile, in the book's world, Raul's on a wild quest to find his mate. Tryng not to go completely feral.
Things get even more interesting when we find more details about the magical book and witness some witchcraft. Yay!

And how is Brad? Well, he's in denial again, but this time, it's about being pregnant!
He's desperate, on a mission to find a way to get to Raul.
We just have to hope that doesn’t involve him speaking Latin! 🤭

Brad: "You're mispronouncing it," Devon says.
"How the fuck am I supposed to know how to pronounce this shit when it’s all made up?" I snap.
Devon rolls his eyes. "Are you kidding me? Latin is real! Did you think it was just some fantasy language they made up for movies like Elvish or something?"
I shrug, feeling my cheeks heat up. "I thought it was like all those Enya songs."

Side Characters: 10/5

The side characters in this book are phenomenal.
At last, we meet some of the Frat Bros!
Reese, Steve, 🤣 ....there are no words to describe how funny and unbelievable they are!

I'm already crossing my fingers for these characters to have their own books. 🤞😖🤞

One thing I absolutely loved about this book was Brad's relationship with his twin brother, it was great to finally have more time with Devon.
Even though the first book starts with them mad at each other, you can see that they're trully close brothers and this book beautifully captures their strong bond.

Brad: Devon hesitates, but I can tell he's at least considering my words. Like he has any other choice. "Say I believe any of that is even possible," he says, pressing a hand to his temple like it causes him great pain just to entertain the thought. For a guy who spends all day with his head in a fantasy, he's annoyingly grounded. "You really expect me to believe you, what, replaced Catalina in the story somehow? You?"
...
Brad: "Skeptical little shit."

Brad: "Wait a sec," Devon calls, to both our surprise. "Actually, maybe having a third person would help. Maybe the problem is that we don't have enough energy with just the two of us."
"Uh, sure, as long as we're not summoning any demons or anything." Reese looks a bit wary as he eyes the magic circle on the floor.
Devon waves a hand dismissively. "Probably not."

Brad: "Nice sitting room." Luna says.
"Is that what it's called?" I ask, looking over at the pool table. "We mostly just use it for beer pong and makeout sessions.”
Luna blinks at me. “With each other, or…?”
“No,” I snap, feeling my face heat up for some reason.

Brad: Raul presses his forehead against mine. "I missed you, too," he whispers.
"Stop reading my thoughts," I grumble half-heartedly.
He smiles, running his hands down my body. "I don't need to read your mind. It's written all over your face. And in the way you kiss me."
I feel my face grow hot at the reminder of how much he affects me. How easily. This son of a bitch is either going to be the death of me or what's left of my supposed heterosexuality.

!! I don't equate fiction stories to real life. It's a matter of personal taste and what you are willing or want to tolerate in the books you read. We all have different opinions and preferences when it comes to the kind of books we enjoy, so it's important to respect and remember that it's just a book!!
