Love, danger and healing
I was feeling all the things as I read Jason and Selene’s opposites attract, fated mates, forbidden, wolf shifter romance. Jason and Selene are portrayed as real, relatable people who have flaws, but are really just trying to do their best as messy beings with pretty big wounds from their pasts. Jason’s character was obviously such a wounded soul in need of healing that his pain was palpable but Selene also was in need of healing, her pain was just less obvious. The combination - whew - had me deep in my big feelings and made the book unputdownable. Jason is a wolf shifter and royalty within the Firebird pack. Two years ago an unhinged and homicidal wolf shifter and his dragon fae girlfriend murdered his parents along with the female wolf who was his potential mate. In order to ease his pain he has been using constant meaningless hookups. When one of his hookups almost causes the death of he and his siblings, he decides he no longer is going to use that vice. Selene is an acolyte priestess to the Preotka of the pack. She knows of Jason and his vice but when she’s assigned to help him fight it, she is equally hopeful that this will elevate her from a simple acolyte and scared that she may not be up to the task. The more time Jason and Selene spend together, the closer they become, but can love happen between such different people in the midst of the intensity of pain and healing. The book is well written, with witty dialogue, good world building, three dimensional characters who grow, and an engaging storyline as shown in sweet moments, spicy scenes, exciting action, danger, family dynamics, painful pasts, evil actors, plot twists, imperfect characters, and love. I will be diving into the final book to see what happens next.
This book is the second part of a trilogy. Do yourself a favor and start with book one to understand and appreciate the full story arc. There is back story from the first book that is not fully included in this book and this part ends on a kind of cliffhanger with a HFN but with the bad guys still out there.
