Shifters, dated mates, deathbed declarations of love?? This book had it all 😍

This book was fast paced; from page 1 there was action and plotting and deceit. The transitions between action-heavy scenes was seamless and felt very natural. 

I didn’t see the twist at the end coming! Love when that happens. 

I really loved the FMC. She reminded me of myself in some aspects; she was so empathetic and willing to help others, even at her own expense. Her choices really resonated with me overall. 

I’m super interested in learning more about the guys, their powers, and seeing their relationships evolve with that ending. I can already tell it’s gonna be a good time 😈

I would have liked just a bit more background info in regard to their relationships in the past. It’s referenced that they were close but that’s about it, which jumps straight to now where they’ve “always loved her.” I feel like it would have been just a little more convincing if the backstory was more detailed. 

I can’t wait for the next audiobook to be released! I’ll absolutely be reading them all.
