Hunted by the big bad wolf….yes please!
I quite liked the re-telling aspect of the story. The characters were intriguing and kept me entertained from the first moment to the last page. This has some steamy scenes, witch three yummy-licious wolves to keep your interest sparkling throughout the book.
Love the paranormal feel – gotta love the shifter universer!
Can’t wait to read the next book in this series…although it’s a standalone, I look forward to seeing how the universe gels together.
Why have I waited to read this book. I loved the characters, the story and of course the ending was perfect. Once I started reading I was hooked. Scarlet, Nero, Oryn and Dagan I couldn’t get enough of and there connection was smokin hot. Truly enjoyed this book and can’t wait too read the next book in this series.
Mila Young really took the common Little Red Riding Hood tale and gave it a whole new spin. It was unique and creative! I loved Scarlet’s character, and the world-building was amazing.
Great story! … This was one great story. A completely different retelling of a classic fairy tale. Scarlet is presumed a spy when she is accidently faced with the truth of the high preistess. Luckily 3 handsome alpha wolf shifters are there to rescue her. They also need her to heal one of them after he inadvertently consumed wolf’s bane. Steam 9/10 * Sweet 9/10 * Alt 1st POV * RH * HEA
This was my first Mila Young book, I quite enjoyed this book and the take Mila Young has on Red Ridhing Hood.
I enjoyed the MC Scarlet, I found her to be a caring and loveable character. The guys Nero, Oyrn and Dagan are all strong characters and Alphas.
There were quite a few twist and turns within the story, with a few I really did not see coming. It is quite a hot and fast paced RH story full of intrigue in a unique world.
I absolutely loved this book. I loved the way it was written and I loved the characters, especially the super sexy men. I love fairy tale retellings and this one is by far one of my favorites. Amazing Story
This was a great RH retelling of little red riding hood. I adored the wolf shifters, and Scarlett was a strong and amazingly written character. The detail and world building were amazing, and the differences between the original tale and this retelling made this story intriguing and enthralling. Scarlett uses her herbs and magic to help others, but because of a tyrannical ruler she has to hide the fact that she’s magic or that she’s using herbs that are outlawed to use. When she finds herself in a bad situation and is forced to flee for her life she runs across the handsome, untrusting and slightly hostile wolf shifters whom need her help. This was a great story with action, adventure and some steamy scenes. Mila Young is extremely creative, I’d love to see a Wizard Of Oz retelling done by her.
Book one in the Haven Realm series though since it is a fairy tale retelling it totally works as a stand alone. Scarlet is a healer with powers that lives in an area where this is forbidden. So of course she attempts to hide her skills so she can stay out of dodge. The problem is that she ends up seeing something she shouldn’t have and has to flee for her life right into the forbidden shifter territory. Three hunky wolf shifters find her and what follows is great as they discover they are all mates while trying to fix their many problems. The use of cape scraps was especially impressive I must say. I can say that this does not stay true to the original story line but this one is so much better with lots of magic, mysteries, and steamy sex scenes. If you enjoy fairy tales, magic, and reverse harem then you so have to read this book. I loved it so I give it 5/5 stars.
This is the first book that I have read by this author as well as the first book in the Haven Realm series. I have just recently become a huge fan of the reverse harem genre and this book made everything smooth sailing for the relationships. I also liked how it was not a straight jump into the sack like some of the books have been lately. This is the first RH that I have read though that has been written in a fairytale retelling and I can not wait to see what the author does with the rest of the “realms” that are spoken of throughout the book.
I loved this action packed story has suspense, evil priestess and explosive passion!
Mila Young is a terrific author with the flair for retelling a fairy tale with a modern twist. Ms. Young’s imagination drew me right into the story from the very first page! This is a fairy tale with a twist, with snarky friends, suspense, evil priestess and scorching hot lust between three hot alpha men and a beautiful woman. Who could resist I know I couldn’t!
Scarlet is a young, beautiful apothecary with a hint of a magical touch. After witnessing a horrible atrocity by her priestess and being caught, Scarlet is on the run. She knew the consequences for running into the Den where apparently the wolves warred. After being attacked by wolves Scarlet wakens in a house with three sexy alpha shifters.
Nero, Oryn and Dagen were sexy, hot alphas with their own territories. They were there to solve a problem together when they stumbled onto the most beautiful woman they’d ever seen. Scarlet was being attack by other wolves from Oryn’s pack. All three of their wolves wanted to claim Scarlet.

Overall, I enjoyed the story. I liked the fairy tale inspiration. I liked Scarlett. She is a sweet and caring heroine, but she does have a few TSTL moments. I liked the guys and how each was distinct. I will probably check out the next story in the series,
