Thank you to Netgalley and Bold Strokes Books for a copy of this book.
Heather McKenna is new to being a werewolf after the curse trapping her wolf has been broken. However she's, struggling to connect to her wolf.
V Raines is feeling frustrated with their pack's outdated beliefs; their father refuses to accept their non binary identity.
When their paths cross and it becomes clear that they're fates mates, Heather isn't ready for it.
This is the 2nd of Abbott's 'Pack of Her Own' series, however it can be read as a standalone (but I would recommend reading the 1st one first to help with the world-building).
While I did enjoy this book, especially the ending, I found it hard to connect to the characters at times. It didn't grab me as much as the first book.
