A review by naiapard
Darkest Mate by Alexis Calder
3.0
It was a decent book about werewolves. The main theme was the mating bond and how they wanted to eliminate it.
Honestly, I dislike this new trend of rejected mates. You are not demonstrating the value of autonomy and independence by having in the worldbuilding the concept of mates and then treating it like a concept in our real world –where it is expected to be rejected. There are no magical tethers and love bonds in the real world.
But that is why I am reading this FANTASY. Because I want to indulge in the farce. Do not start to give me some bits of rationality and practicality that would correspond to the real world. I want to evade it. That is why I am reading this book.
If you are interested in my review for the Forbidden Sin (Rejected Fate #2), which is the second book in the installment you can check it by pressing on the hyperlinked text (I am not saying much).
