A review by rawlsreads
Cricket by Willow Hadley

5.0

This is a sweet, sweet love story between a witch and her (possibly) destined wolf mates. There are so many good vibes in this book. It's such an easy, sweet read. I've used sweet three times already in this review, but honestly, it's the best word to sum it up.

I loved Willow's other book [b:Of Moons and Monsters|57197382|Of Moons and Monsters (Of Moons and Monsters, #1)|Willow Hadley|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1614209255l/57197382._SY75_.jpg|89517674], so I thought I'd dive into this one with the third book coming out later this month.

The FMC
Cricket is a witch who's just coming into her powers. She's moved to Colorado right before her 18th birthday - when a witch's full power comes out. Her vibe is: go with the flow, be her best self and screw everyone else - I'm here for it.

She's a bit of a jack of all trades, but we as the reader are not here for conflict - we just want a nice love story with some good ol group dynamics to work out.

The Guys
Theo, Cas, & Hollis - three best friends that have grown up together and formed a pack. They each have their flaws and pasts, but they are here for each other no matter what. Theo is the alpha outgoing one, Cas is the moody, pretty one, and Hollis is the shy, sweet one. Honestly, I'm here for all these personalities and how they weave together to make a perfect little harem.

There is 100% insta-love in this one, but I'm good with that as this is more of a fated mate plotline than anything. It's really just sweet how they get to know each other and start to work out the dynamics of a group relationship.

The Smut
Guys, this one is a super, super slow burn. You get some kisses and a lot of pining. It'll build over time, but this is more one for all the feels.
