**********Contains Spoilers**********

Man, I really enjoyed this book. Nash is completely full of himself, he’s a firefighter and he found something that makes him happy after him and his brother Wyatt and 2 cousins left home but ever since Branson and Riley have got together and had a baby he’s a bit unsettled. He’s goes to a call out at Riley’s apartment building where an old lady had set off the smoke alarm becuase she tried to cook sausages inside on an charcoal grill. She tells the firefighters that she hasn’t seen her neighbour Phineas but Nash was told that everyone had been accounted for but he’s goes into his apartment and it looks completely clear but due to his extra senses he can hear someone breathing. When Phineas wakes up him and Nash get on the wrong foot, as he thinks Nash doesn’t have any substance just because he’s really good looking. Yes, Nash keeps putting his foot in his mouth and saying the wrong thing but he feels a connection to Phin and is angry that Phin nearly died and he doesn’t care. Phin has a gift that he can heal any accident but he takes on the injury himself too a slightly less extent but he thinks he’s cursed becuase whereever he moves too people always keep getting hurt around him. When Nash and Phin finally sort out their issues they’re great together. Phin has a stalker that has caused all the people to get hurt around him so he could watch Phin heal as he thinks he can be taught what Phin can do but that’s not possible. I’m glad that Phin helped Nash and Wyatt learn to forgive their mother Julie when they learnt what their father John was like, and she finally got the courage to leave their father and go live with Nana Walker. I’m looking forward to reading Wyatt’s book as I think the pack Elders are just going to up their game. I’d recommend this book, series and author to everyone.

You need to ingest rohypnol for it to work. And the bad guy's plans were ridiculously convoluted.
Spoiler Sending a stranger sausages because "He knew she'd grill them inside and hoped she'd hurt herself in the process." Why would anyone assume that someone would grill indoors?
Also, why did they
Spoiler tell the online friends they were shifters? And why did the friends believe them? That makes no sense.

The plot are quite messy, didn't get executed quite well, I thought I relate more to phin since he was just like me but I didn't idk why the process of him getting into a new environment happens very quickly it would've been better if we see a progress.

Loved this! Nash was such a surprise! It’s quite unusual to have an MC be so conscious of how gorgeous he is, and so entitled and full of himself in some ways, and yet also intriguingly tormented and very self-aware. I really enjoyed getting to know more about Nash and see him try so hard for his mate, Phineas.

I really liked how compellingly the author wrote the emotional intensity of the mate bond, as well as that of the strong connection between all four cousins. The dynamic between those four alpha’s is great fun to read, and unexpectedly moving at times too.

I loved the plot twist with regards to Nash’s parents and I so enjoyed getting to know more about the pack and its history. Nana, the mysterious, wise and strong matriarch of the pack, is an amazing character and I love what she brings to the story. The world-building and mythology is detailed and original, quite a step up from a lot of other shifter mpreg stories I’ve read so far.

Very much a fan of this series and in desperate need of the next book!

Suspenseful story, needs better editing

This is book two in the series and to fully appreciate the story and the characters you really need to read these books in order.

This book features on of the Walker cousins, all wolf shifter who have left their pack. Nash is a fireman and at a fire he meets Phineas who, much to Nash’s dismay, does not immediately fall at his feet. Nash, who is quite a playboy, is drawn to Phil as he has never been drawn to anyone else. And just like the MCs in book one, the man he is drawn to has a unique gift.

The story has an arsonist and the alert reader will figure out this mystery long before the MCs do. There are family dynamics and pack dynamics which come into play here as well.

The story is a good read but there are some definite editing and proofreading problems that really became annoying after a while. I didn’t notice as many in book one so I am hoping things are better in book three which I will be starting right away.

Let's be real here: I choose covers before I read the summaries to see if I want to read the book. I don't know why so many m/m book particularly shifter books have so many muscly men on the cover. It doesn't really make me want to read it, but I've learned to let go and see where the book takes me.

I would say the first 3/4th of the book was great. Phin and Nash are fun. But once you reach the the final quarter, suddenly it gets disjointed and rushed. Phin suddenly starts to become a different character altogether. I don't know if the author has a deadline or if it was intentionally, but the book lost me in the final quarter.
