About this book
Half-shifter Shaya Critchley may hold a submissive role in her wolf pack, but the petite redhead refuses to let an Alpha male interfere in her life. Furious and humiliated after her mate refused to claim her, she runs off to hide among the humans. Why wait around for an Alpha male to love her when he’d obviously prefer to ignore her?
Nick Axton can barely control his urges for Shaya, but the Alpha can never claim her — not if he truly cares for her. His degenerative brain condition will eventually destroy him, and he’s afraid of turning his mate into his caretaker. Yet when Shaya runs away, Nick can’t let her go. He pursues her, vowing to finally claim his rightful mate. And despite Shaya’s spirited and passionate resistance, Nick’s fiery determination just might be the ultimate aphrodisiac.

Wow, this was more like Feral Sins, still no book will be better than Feral Sins, but i still loved it, it was great. Nick needed to do a lot of grovel and he did and i loved his alpha behavior, he was like Trey, oh my god, it was sexy, hot, erotic, mind blowing, soul shattering. Love this series and i hope we get to see Dominic's, i really love him and want him to be with his woman, also Marcus and Nick's sister....ah, i want a story of all of them, like now!

Half-shifter Shaya Critchley may hold a submissive role in her pack, but she’s done taking orders. After her mate refused to claim her—but committed to constantly watching her and meddling in her life—she took off, believing her only chance of finding any kind of happiness with someone was to leave him and the shifter community behind. Find a nice human guy who doesn’t come with baggage like Alpha stuff and true mate bonds. Now, six months later, in a new state, with a new job, posing as a...

Just finished book #3 and Suzanne didn't let me down. I don't understand the first two reviews- unless they haven't read books 1 + 2. Maybe then? Nah. I wasn't sure if I was going to like Nick's story, but put him together with Taryn's BFF- Shayla, and it became just as good as the first two books. This whole book was about misunderstandings, over-protection, and starting over. I usually avoid books like this but please don't. It's really worth the read. Just make sure you read the series in...

I would have given this installment a 2 were it not for how well she wrote Nick's character. I have numerous issues with the writing of this particular book, although I like the series as a whole and the world that she has created. 1. Suzanne Wright has fallen into the writer's trap where she mistakes belligerent childishness for strength. Her female leads in general, and Shaya in particular, come across as snotty, petulant, inarticulate teenagers. Shaya is constantly cussing out Nick, smacking...

This is the third or fourth time I have read this series and I can say it is awesome! There are hot sex scenes but if that isn’t your thing skip them like I do. This a great story. I highly recommend this book which leads into the Mercury pack series which is great also! )
