Shift Work by TA Moore
4.0
Wait this was so short but?? So good??
As what is apparently true T. A. Moore fashion, the worldbuilding and exposition is confusing and messy a heck. I am not sure what anything is about. Werewolves make up 80% of the population, and normal humans - nulls - the remaining 20%.
Marlow is part of the Night Shift, a null police division that patrols at night and takes care of wolf related crimes. From what I gathered. Cade is the CEO of a private security firm and he can’t fucking stand the Night Shift and the incompetence of local police. Cade’s highest profile client is the Reserve, a private community for uber rich wolves. When a girl turns up dead in the Reserve, Marlow and Cade must collaborate to solve the murder.
Marlow is easygoing and TIRED and I love him. Cade is an arrogant asshole and I love him. I love how quickly dynamics shifted. Cade is introduced as this alpha wolf, but he kinda starts crushing on Marlow and turns into a disaster flirt and it was so fucking cute… he was really doing his bet and left Marlow so confused as what he was meaning. « Is he flirting with me or just being an ass? » and flustered Cade was so cute. I love them.
The mystery was fine, I am more interest in the overarching plot and the guys’ secrets where the cliffhanger left us. Anyway, unexpectedly fun read with a fun couple!
“Get some rest, Marlow,” Cade drawled. For a second, Marlow was cynically surprised that Cade actually remembered who he was, until the next thing Cade said gave him something else to be surprised about. “You look like you should be in my bed already.”

“What did you think about me?”
“Thought or think?” he asked.
“It was a dumb question. Forget I opened—”
“Spectacular ass,” Marlow said.
“I have one?” Cade asked. “Or I am one?”
“Yes.”
