“He wanted to walk away from her, but he wanted to come closer too. His human brain versus his shifter heart—”
Ah, Jace…finally. The protector, the lone wolf who has decided that his pack family is all that he’ll ever have. He knows all about mates, but that doesn’t mean he wants one. He sees the happy couples in his pack, but that’s them…not him. Good luck with that, right?
I confess that the idea of there being just one person out there destined to be your mate is very romantic. I got so excited as I anticipated the eventual connection between Jace and his mate. I know I’m not the only one that digs how they all seem to fight it but are unable to withstand the pull as they are drawn to each other. It wouldn’t be nearly as exciting if they just gave in immediately.
Jace was raised by a monster. It’s surprising that he has so much heart after suffering so much pain and abuse as a child. I’ve been worried about him, anxious for him to find a woman of his own. Axie is perfect for broody Jace, her snark and wildness is a good balance for his darkness. He’s kind of a geek and she reminds him to lighten up. She can push his buttons like no other, even more than his brother who is quite skilled at it. Will he give in to fate and make her his? Does he have a choice?
Oh, how I love this St. Leasing family. Every new addition makes it even better, cuz you know those alphas need a woman to soften them up. But, it’s also those women that make them growl and fight. Their witty banter is so entertaining and to say I’m addicted is an understatement. I can’t wait to see who ends up with Jasper and Riley! The line forms here…
Soul Crushing is L.P. Maxa newest book. This is the story of Jace the beta. This book was everything I was hoping it to be. Jace is not your normal teen and had an abusive childhood. He was not lucky like his twin Jasper. Jace is protective of his pack. He is wise beyond his years and never thought bonding was for him. Axie is the woman he needed. She is fierce a wild child and absolutely kickass. She is definitely in my top favorites for female characters. She snarky and gives Jace as goods as she got. They are incredible together. You learn more about the younger pack members in this one. This book was an amazing read and I loved Jace so much. I’ve been rooting for him since the beginning. Check out this amazing Shifter Series and I can’t wait for the rest of the books.
Omg!!! This book was amazing! I didn’t want to put it down! I was so anxious for this book because Jace was always so in control and I wondered how a mate would factor into that need. Never did I think that the chaos Axie brought would be what he needed. In the beginning I had a hard time liking her, but knew by the end I would love her and Jace together. Axie is the female Jasper in some aspects, so it is completely understandable how she would be the perfect completion of Jace. And Axie needs the calmness that Jace can bring to the chaos she thinks she needs. They are so much alike, but so different at the same time. They fight their bonding for different reasons until they finally realize this is what they both want and need. I can’t wait to see which young shifter falls next! This is just an amazing series!
100% worth the wait! This book was everything I wanted it to be – wild and free. Jace has held everything in and together for himself and everyone else for so long that it was so fun to watch him fall for wikd girl Axie. Axie, deep down wasn’t nearly as wild as she wanted everyone to think. I loved how much you got to see all of the member of the pack. I loved how much you got to see Jace, Jasper and Riley together and the crazy relationship between the 3 of them. The story was incredibly steamy and incredibly funny. My favorite combination. Please, please, please let there be more to this series!
