it's a story of Anna Sinclair - archaeologist, geek girl and Luke who is Tall, dark, sexy, tattooed, funny, dangerous. Everything a women want in a man.

It's been five months since Anna boyfriend was tragically killed in a climbing accident. She didn't think she was over him ... until Luke walked on to the archaeological site.
But he's hiding something. He acts strangely in the moonlight. He won't tell me anything about his life. And I caught him trying to destroy an important find. Luke knew from the moment her intoxicating scent wafted across my wolf senses, she's meant to be his. And that knowledge is terrifying . The last thing he expected was to find my fated mate on an archaeological site

Her body aches for him, but my heart tells she is not ready to make herself vulnerable again, especially not for a guy who isn't being straight with me. she's broken. The last thing she needs in her life is a werewolf out for revenge. Luke was there to destroy the site, to keep his family's past buried forever.
If Anna finds out the truth, she'd never speak to him again.
But Luke can't deny the bond between them. He will ll do anything to make her mine.
He found another member of his family while being a Ranger of site and , and an enemy whose family is enemy of our protagonist clan

This was the first book about the wolves of Crookshollow, but some of the colorful characters from other Crookshollow books make an appearance. This time, Anna and some others from the university's archaeology department explore the caves. Luke, while a ranger looking to protect the caves also has a secret hidden deep inside them that he's desperate to hide.

Anna and Luke have more to overcome than just the walls around their hearts in order to be together. Other wolves also threaten to tear them apart.

I've really enjoyed the Crookshollow books and this one is no exception. I can't wait to read more about Anna, Luke and Caleb.

I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader's Copy of this book.

This book was hilariously atrocious. The sex scenes were thoroughly unarousing, the heroine’s backstory was stupidly tragic, and the love dodecahedron was of course absurd. I hope you get a laugh out of some of my highlighted quotes.

One hopeful archaeology student. One ranger. One cave with secrets the university team could only dream of.

This novel adds a few of my favorite topics, deception, wit and misdirection. Holmes seems to point us in all different directions throughout this novel and we can't be sure which direction is the right one until right until the end. I love stories that keep you guessing and even when you are almost certain, you pause and wonder if you have made a mistake.

Good quick read

The story was good and the writing was really well done. I just wished it had lasted a little longer. Thoroughly enjoyed it though and would recommend to anyone looking for a quick read with yummy men.

I was so interested in this book. Love an archeologist romance. Plus ated mates? Sign me up. Unfortunately, the characters and plots were muddled from the beginning. I really enjoyed the discussion of the dirty, day to day aspects of the dig site.

Anna (the heroine) was too timid, too submissive, for the role this book required, especially as an archelogy student. And Luke's alphahole tendencies because he was attracted didn't feel like a romance. Felt like a scene you saw at every bar before 2020.

I DNFed 11% in. So no star rating level. There's a mystery plot line about some cave paintings but I stopped when the bat attacked her hair in the middle of the night. Dig sites aren't for midnight rendezvous points.
