This is a comfort read. I love Park and Cooper as a couple and I really like them fighting crime together. I have to say, the crime part wasn’t as exciting to me as the previous books. But I still liked reading it, specifically Cooper’s thinking process regarding their relationship and his mental health. I like how their relationship isn’t portrayed as perfect.

5 Sigh Worthy Stars
I’ll try to make this quick because if you haven’t read the prior 3 books, turn yourself around and start with [b:The Wolf at the Door|36480253|The Wolf at the Door (Big Bad Wolf, #1)|Charlie Adhara|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1515447921l/36480253._SY75_.jpg|58190977]!
What this 4th installment does so well, in and amongst a standard missing person’s case, is to really allow the reader to finally see how Cooper and Park are doing since all the werewolfy secrets came out previously in [b:Thrown to the Wolves|42282304|Thrown to the Wolves (Big Bad Wolf, #3)|Charlie Adhara|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1543564163l/42282304._SY75_.jpg|65574581]. Their love is strong, but they’re still navigating the little things, still learning about each other, and testing the waters of their unusual, unconventional relationship that is all things dominant, submissive, protective, and supporting.
If you were jonesing for more exploration between these two, then come on over! Cooper’s snarky voice really shines here, and it’s a testament to how far they’ve come that Park gives it back just as good. In the past, Cooper often frustrated me with his anxious valid insecurities and though he’s now confident in loving and being loved, his issues are better understood here, for instead of running away from them, he pushes past the awkward wanting to do right by Park no matter how uncomfortable it might make him. Be reassured this sentiment goes both ways, as it’s so evident that these men want the other to be happy, to meet each other's needs, and to have absolutely no misunderstandings or barriers to anything. I relished every single moment they shared, struggled with, and worked out together to get things done!
Park continues to be a stellar book hubby here; the man can do no wrong in my eyes. He struggles with his past, wanting to make amends and atone, and despite his formidable innate alpha persona, he easily acquiesces to all things Cooper, still retaining his alluring indomitable strength and power. As mentioned above, there’s a push pull here to their dynamic, each giving in yummy sexy explicit ways, and keeping me oh so rapt as I watched these two dance their lovely dance (*stuffing face with popcorn without blinking*). Unf!
So suffice it to say, and I apologize for not being succinct as was my original intention to do so, I’ve only grown to love these two more and more. I'm just putting it out there, should Park ever get tired of Cooper, I’m readily available!
All kidding aside, this has now elevated to a top favorite series as this isn’t your typical shifter romance. It’s gritty and dramatic, it alternates between spot on levity with equal amounts of suspense, all with a continued fascinating exploration into werewolf culture but never skimping on what's most important, and that’s the story of these two fascinating protagonists. Adhara has created something special here, making this a rare unputdownable page turner that sadly, always goes too fast. Again, one can only hope that she continues to give us more of this lovely duo that has yet to disappoint!

Can’t say enough good things about this series, and I love this one in particular so much.
Park and Cooper continue to grow as a couple and the plot line of attending a couples retreat under false identities but oops getting real relationship insights works so well since readers have seen them grow and develop together. It’s not played for laughs, it’s truly does add to their relationship.
