This book will scratch your itch if you’re looking for a cheesy shifter romance. 

This book was okay. If you want to read the words “scent,” “knot,” and “slick,” repeatedly…then this is the book for you. 

I am just not in to the animal-based romances. There is a lot of smelling that goes on and it is just not my cup of tea. If you want to get in touch with your animal instincts while getting spicy, more power to you! But like I said, not for me! 

Overall, the plot and events seemed predictable. I knew the Happily Ever After was coming, but the steps along the way were obvious as well. 

I feel like, generally, fake dating requires some miscommunication and a real third act break up and that’s what we got.
