This was an easy and enjoyable read with an interesting concept. Roxie and Steele’s first meeting didn’t go as Steele expected. They both had some misconceptions about each other in regards to being shifters and/or human. Each shifter story gets better.
Steele and Roxie are made for each other!
Roxie is in a sort of limbo after leaving her singing career behind, so she and her best friend head to Mardi Gras in NOLA. A chance encounter with the enigmatic Steele has her wondering why he’s so determined to pursue her, despite his playboy reputation.
Steele recognizes Roxie as his mate right from the start, but he doesn’t understand why she can’t feel it too. After a whirlwind romance, Roxie is called back home for a family emergency and she has more to deal with than a possible relationship.
Steele’s transformation from casual playboy to devote mate was well-written and believable, and Roxie’s reluctance to resume her singing was handled sensitively and thoughtfully. Their romance struck just the right balance between insta-love and slow-burn. I loved the steps he took to win her back once he found her again.
I enjoyed the characters and world-building in this series. It was lovely to see some of the familiar characters from earlier books. This is a terrific addition to the series, and I enjoyed it very much. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
WOW! This is the first book I’ve read by this author and I never know what to expect. Wellll let me tell you I loved this book!! Roxie’s dad is the Alpha wolf and her mom is human. Roxie needs to get away from her hometown in Alaska. Her and her best friend decide to make a trip to New Orleans for Mardi Gras as they’ve wanted to for awhile. While they are there Roxie meets Steele, a wolf. However neither knows what the other is. Their attraction isn’t love at first sight for her but it is for him. They spend time together until Roxie has to leave abruptly. Steele doesn’t know where she is, her last name or even the town she lives in. One thing leaves to another and let’s just say things take a turn with some twists. Recommend Reading!! I can’t wait for more…I’ll have to read the first four in this series now.
I received this as an ARC for my honest and voluntary review.
Another enjoyable story in this wonderful shifter series. As a shifter, without the ability to shift, Roxie has put up with much from others in her pack, even though her father is the Alpha. When she is injured in an accident, her best friend persuades her to take a relaxing trip to New Orleans. Steele has always been a ‘player’, mainly because he feels himself unworthy of a mate. When these two damaged characters meet, they both feel the attraction, but Roxie pushes Steele away. How Steele manages to woo Roxie and how they find out who was behind her accident, makes this story one you don’t want to miss. I absolutely love this series.
Such a great read! I was hooked from the first page until the last! I loved Steele and Roxie’s story. Their connection and relationship is sweet and romantic. The story is well written and engaging, the plot flowed smoothly from page to page, and the characters were well developed and had great chemistry. If you love a great paranormal story then this book is for you. I highly recommend this book you won’t be disappointed.
I loved this story and I love how the series can be read out of order and still make sense. This book made me tear up at hit for me in more ways than one great job Angel
