This was a great October choice, it was a little like a grown up “twilight”. I thought the story was rich & the characters were very likeable. It also wasn’t drowning in smut. It had just the right amount of spice & anticipation without overpowering the plot. 

Misery was a great character, her sarcasm & wit was endearing. The developing relationship between her & Lowe brought comedy, drama & lust. I was rooting for them to be together from the start. The more they connected with each other, the more they as individuals blossomed. Lowe was exactly the kind of guy every woman deserves…besides the whole wolf thing. I liked that he was strong & protective but never domineering or forceful with Misery. He was a great example of how sexy consent can be. 

I really enjoyed this book, exactly for what it is, a supernatural, fantasy. As usual, anything that’s not a classic is slated by many, but I often wonder why these sort of people venture in to this kind of read? Surely after reading the blurb nobodies really expecting it to be a “Pride & prejudice”?

I completed this book in 2/3 days, it was a very easy read & i know it’ll become another comfort read.
