Super fast-paced story. Loved the fated mates shifter trope. The twist at the beginning really pulled me in and the story was just full speed ahead from there. 

This story proves that there is talent hiding all over the place. This story was so good! 

I was immediately hooked by the concept of Ria being sent back in time at the moment she dies, paired with the conflict of her chosen mate finding his true mate and everything going from there. Now... lots of books start off well and can't carry that all the way through, so I was always a little nervous that the quality was just one page away from dropping. But it never did! The story actually got more complex, with more layers, more character dynamics and secrets, more reveals and complication... and it all got wrapped up in satisfying ways. These are the kinds of stories that I find really satisfying - the ones where we get glimpses and hints of what's to come, and then all the ends get tied up. I was constantly engaged and engrossed in the mysteries and eager to see how everything would get resolved. 

I also love stories with strong, fierce women and this was full of them. Ria, of course, was a bad ass. But so was Maya, so was Savvy. And the Werecats and the "red girls" in Castiel's harem were even strong side characters. 

And Gideon was delicious. Reid was also a great supporting character. But I also liked that the other men characters were multi-dimensional too - Ash, Braden, even Castiel wasn't a one-dimensional villain.  

Loved Ria and Gideon's love story, but I also really enjoyed everything else about this story as well. Looking forward to the next book and seeing how things go for
Savvy and Kai, the Northern King

I loved this book. Great way to get me out of my reading slump.

When I first opened the book, I was a bit lost as the FMC seemed to be in the past but also the present. Reading past the first few pages, I was not disappointed at the initial shock factor and the way the book draws you in. I could not stand Roxy, and everything Riannon played her at her own game, I was excited. Riannon was my favorite character from Jump. I'm so glad she didn't just forgive Brayden (goong forward with her plan/ divorce), regardless of the reason he made those choices. The divorce scene was one of my favorites. Great read and something you may wanna get into. Happy reading!

Really had no idea how good this book was going to be
Went in with no expectations—and thus far—for January 2025, it’s already my Top Read for this month and is already in my Top 10 for 2025, hell maybe even Top 5!
The story and pacing was so good! We get a few different perspectives in the story, which is good, really helps us see the bigger picture, and the other views does not feel like filler info or take away from the main story. It adds and shows that what’s going on—extends farther than anyone could have guessed—and ugh! *chefs kiss*
Other then the obvious characters (who are idiots) being idiots, no one else was stupid or made dumb childish decisions…honestly such a good, fast pace, intriguing world with wonderful lovable characters

This book was both terrible and captivating. I often skimmed through the dialogue and cringed at the descriptions, yet despite its flaws, I couldn't resist its addictive pull - I just had to know what happened next. It's like it cast a spell on me!

Primera vez que leo una historia omegaverse así que soy nueva en las dinámicas y tropes propios del género, pero me tuvo enganchada mucho al punto que casi lo termino en un día. No se si continuar la serie porque los protas del siguiente libro no me llaman mucho la atención pero no descarto la idea de seguirla.

This is one of my favourite books of all time. The plot is so creative it drew me from the start and I couldn't put it down. The characters are amazing, especially Ria who is strong, brave, resilient and blessed, but the other characters are so in depth and complex you can't help wanting to root for the ones you love and despise the enemies.
There's lots of suspense, action, mystery and drama, a steamy romance, secrets, betrayals, plot twists, and a seductively dark villain.
This story explores the world of shifters, mate bonds and paranormal gifts in a stunning way that keeps you gripped.
I love everything about this book, that's probably why I've already read it 4 times.
