Summary/Synopsis

This book has at least 3 mature scenes between the love interest.

Seraphina's family is killed and someone is after her. A man rescues her and takes her to a safe house. She soon learns that not everything is as it seems.

This is the second fairy tale retelling I have read. I enjoyed the book it was interesting. The book was nice and short. It did leave on a cliffhanger. I do not know if it will continue.

This world has many supernatural creatures like werewolves, shifting bears, harpies, Phoenix, etc. We mostly focus on the werewolves. I did like many of the characters but my favorite character was Zale.

I did feel that the book was slow in some parts. There was also nothing going on in one part of the book but I understand that the book was very short.

I recommend this book if you want to read something nice and short.
