I read the fourth book in this series first as it was part of a giveaway. I loved that this first one focused on Una and Killian as I had already liked her character. Una is a great MC - strong, smart, brave. Her and Killian’s love story was unexpectedly sweet. I liked this one much better than the fourth one, and it has me rethinking some of the things that I didn’t love about the fourth in light of events and characterizations in this one.

I instantly liked Una and her personality and wanted to punch Killian where it hurts 😤

The pack history was interesting, angering but interesting...and you don't find many shifter books where mated pairs sleep with other people...so that was something I wasn't expecting.

Loved that Una constantly challenged Killian and didn't back down from his BS...which was A LOT. haha Really wish he'd done more groveling tbh 😤

Overall it was a fun read and I'll most likely be checking out the rest of the series 💜

The angst. That sweet, sweet angst. I inhaled this book in one day. I really thought I was going to struggle with this trope- I can’t handle second-hand embarrassment but I was so wrong! The tension, Una’s determination, the groveling made it all so worth it.

Here's the thing, I usually don't care for wolf shifter pack or books with alphas. I try them every year and they just fall flat for me. But this author, seems to make me at least like genres (like biker romance) that I would normally avoid. So with that in mind this is the best wolf shifter pack with a temperamental alpha and fated mate story I have ever read. I still don't love this genre, but this book was pretty good. 
Hope that makes sense.
