General Description: Misery is the only daughter of a powerful vampire councilman. He tells Misery, who has been blending in with the human world for years, that she will be wed to an Alpha of the werewolf pack of the Southwest. Surprisingly, Misery agrees, because she believes the Alpha had something to do with the disappearance of her best friend. Can Misery find her friend before the Alpha realizes something is up, or will Misery find that she has a surprising ally in the Alpha?
The good:
- The spicier scenes in this book made sense for me and followed the progression of the book.
- The overall mystery from the description of the book.
- I think I like the marriage of convenience trope thanks to this book. I thought it was very well done.
- I would instantly go back into the world that Ali built (and I'm convinced we will be back based on the ending).
The loss of one star:
- I did feel a bit lost not have any Omegaverse knowledge. I still don't fully know what a Knot is or anything like that, and when those aspects were highlighted, I felt a bit taken out of the book.
Overall, if you are a fan of Ali Hazelwood but aren't sure about the paranormal world, I would recommend it. I still enjoyed it even with the lack of paranormal knowledge
