Wolf Marked by Veronica Douglas

4.0

So I feel like this book title doesn’t actually tell you the truth about the plot of this book. The title indicates that someone is marked by a wolf (I’d of bet because of mating like in most PNR books) but no one gets marked.

Honestly Savannah pissed me off at times, I was about ready to give up on this book when she was constantly disobeying orders and doing the exact opposite of what she was told. Her family in Magic Side seem pretty cool and there is a lot about Savannah that we don’t yet know. She didn’t learn to control her magic, we don’t know who is after her still but all we know is it is a sorcerer and we have seen glimpses of him in her scrys.

I usually love wolf shifters and their packs but this pack I really really hate. The twist being that they are pretending to be good guys but really they are only looking out to cover their own asses. They aren’t trustworthy and they lie a lot which is not normal of a wolf shifter.

I think it’s clear that Jaxson’s wolf likes Savannah and has yet to realise they are mates and it’s clear Savannah isn’t just a sorceress (lots of hints throughout the book that she is probably also part wolf like her nails hurting and itching, she escapes from tight bounds in the basement room, she slashes Billy and he doesn’t heal and her eyes glow golden honey In the river).

The world of Magic Side is really intriguing and I want to know what other bad blood is between Jaxson’s family and Savannahs family and how it all started. The book was a quick read and I am glad it’s in first person I always feel more invested when it’s written in first person. I am hoping we find out more in book 2 and have some answers and this book felt like it was just the set up to a much larger story and although there was a lot of action/fighting there wasn’t much in the way of steamy scenes between the 2 MC’s which I was disappointed in but I’m holding out hope for this to change in book 2, I hope Jaxson gets his head around things with Savannah like yeah their families have historical issues but they clearly need to get together. A bit Romeo and Juliet but the characters are more Badass.
