50% DNF. I am disappointed since I have enjoyed Crystal Ash in the past but I don’t like the h. She may be a feisty fox but her arguments about humans shooting shifters is a little nonsensical. Humans shoot animals, it’s not great but true. How on earth would they know the difference between a shifted human and an animal while out hunting??
It’s a weird thing to read about. And these guys, Orion, Chase and Conan- I am just not feeling them at all. And unfortunately I don’t care. Moving on.

Fun
I liked this take on the shifter mythos, it takes what we generally accept and tweaks the rules just enough to make it stand in a separate universe - while still presenting the “accepted” characteristics of the paranormal. Mainly, who knows about shifters? Seems that everyone does, but that it is also a deeply shadowed knowledge - the edge of what humans are privy to. It’s interesting.
Pros:
- Good use of multiple POV.
- Love a fox shifter!
- RH is NOT just accepted as the norm here.... there are some obvious questions.
Cons:
- Orion... I really don’t know if I like this wolf or not. Per nature, he’s overbearing, but.... eh?

On to the next
Okay, I enjoyed this book and it did keep me interested. But then I checked my progress and seen that the book was almost over and not much had really happened. Idk if this book was just setting up the foundation for the harem and what’s to come in the next books or what, but I felt like the whole book was basically about her wanting to be with Orion, meeting Chase and Conan, Orion’s issue that was resolved by the end, and that’s about it. It wasn’t a bad book, it just kind of fell flat to me but I will keep going because this trilogy has such good reviews and I want to see it through.
I did enjoy the scene of her meeting Conan. It was pure happiness and makes you want to play tag in a meadow and makes you feel like a Disney princess.
Again, it wasn’t a bad book I just don’t personally feel like that much went on in this book.

Loved It!
I love shifter stories, especially ones that have different shifter types in the relationship. I really enjoyed the characters and also watching as things evolve between them. What a great book!

Orion, Conan & Chase
I like how we're introduced to all 3 mates in the first book. Just as Astrid is getting to know them the reader is too. Granted we don't know enough about Chase yet but I think Conan is my favorite

This was a great first book. I still wonder about the feb conspiracy thing. How did that work out and why is this the way it is? Poor Conan I’m sure he will fall for her in time.

Astrid is everything a shifter should aspire to be. She’s strong, confident and as in tune with her animal side as she is with her human side. I’m glad she has a good relationship with her family and that they aren’t forgotten throughout the book. Orion is a great alpha and I’m happy with how accepting he is throughout the book. Chase is interesting and exactly what I’d expect from his kind of shifter. Conan I’ve yet to make a decision on but hopefully he’s a good guy.
