Took me a minute to get into it, but it came around. I love the characters and the things they have to overcome to let true love come thru.
I was given an advanced reader copy and I voluntarily leave this review.
What an interesting book! Imagine you have lost your beloved dog. You’re already sad and in comes this gorgeous gray wolf. He’s beautiful. He has eyes like the night fall. He’s pretty well-behaved with a bit of an hornery phase. Yet he just keeps hanging around your porch all the time. Wouldn’t you take him in? I would. Tamara has a thing for strays so she takes in this gorgeous wolf. This wolf brings back a man from the past into Tamara’s life in ways she never dreamed of. He has a way of bring out her self-confidence and courage that have been beaten down due to crappy relationships. Josh is a shapeshifter that is trying to live his life while trying to be Tamar’s dog and show her that she’s his soul mate. He’s running ragged yet he loves her from the start and stays with her through it all. The author has done a really terrific job of blending the characters in such a way that you feel like you are watching a relationship grow that could blossom forever. She even through a few jerks in there.
This story is one that I normally wouldn’t read, but it kept my attention for the most part. Tamara finds a stray dog, or what she thinks is a dog, but he’s a wolf. She names him Nightfall. Nightfall is very protective of her and eventually she is able to communicate telepathically with him. What she doesn’t know is, she has met him before when he was in human form.
Their relationship grows and she finally learns the truth.
This was an interesting shifter/human romance and the first book from TK Lawyer I have read.
The good: I absolutely love how flawed her characters are. They get mad, jealous, and have insecurities that don’t just magically disappear once they say “I love you”. They have trauma and fears that hold them back and provide obstacles they struggle to overcome. Her descriptions are realistic and her spicy scenes are classy and hot.
The different: (slight spoiler alert) The first half of the book was mildly uncomfortable to me as the main character was bonding a bit too closely with the dog for my personal tastes. She acknowledged it was wrong but it still made me feel awkward reading her reactions to the dog showing affection. I’m aware it’s a mate bond, but human to animal physical connections don’t do it for me. Once he revealed his true self the book really took off and was great.
Overall it was a good read as Lawyer has a great imagination and a wonderful way with words.
I will start by saying this book had a unique approach to the werewolf mate relationship. When I began reading it I was excited to see how it was going to play out. While I was expecting a bit more of a focus on the paranormal side this book could have offered, it read more like a romance novel that just so happened to include a shifter as one of the main characters. I really appreciated the fact that Tamara wasn’t your typical female character. She had realistic flaws that most women could relate to! I loved how Josh’s dedication to her even when she made it hard.
Tamara is an average woman with typical relatable flaws! She has a past that she can’t seem to let go of and is constantly torn between allowing herself to be loved or to push Josh away. Josh seems to deal with her issues in stride and shows that love can truly overcome any obstacle.
Overall, I liked Nightfall and it was an easy read.
This was a first for me from this author and was an ok read. A shifter-romance, the characters are complex. There are some really cute moments that keep the story flowing and kept me reading until the end. The storyline was slow moving for me though and I wanted to connect more. Not a quick fire romance but sizzling enough.
Nightfall by TK Lawyer. This is a really good paranormal romance. Its the story of Tamara who find a stray dog (who is really a wolf) and adopts it. The “Dog’s” name is Nightfall and he doesn’t plan on staying Tamara’s pet. He is there because he knows he is meant to be Tamara’s mate. Tamara has had some really bad relationship’s so she’s not in the market for a boyfriend but there is something about Josh that keeps pulling her toward him. Josh is going to be close to Tamara no matter what it takes and eventually he shape shifts his way into her heart. Tamara has been beat down by others to the point of not wanting to ever open her heart again but Josh somehow manages to get her to let him in. When they connect sparks fly and they both find true happiness but will it last? Read Nightfall to find out!
Loved this story! I loved the shifter in Josh’s character from human to wolf. His love for Tamara is truly undeniable. There are plenty of ups and downs including some jealousy and doubt when these two get together. In the end, love should always prevail <3. This book was easy to read and hard to put down.
Excellent book first book i read by this author and i got hooked .
