New York Times Bestselling author Penelope Sky delivers a story filled with heartache, revenge, betrayal, and off-the-charts chemistry! Forced into an arranged marriage, Arwen and Maverick must learn to trust one another if they hope to survive. Till death do us part. My father married me off to one of the most powerful men in Italy. Maverick DeVille. But I call him the wolf. He calls me his … Italy.
Maverick DeVille. But I call him the wolf.
He calls me his sheep.
The arranged marriage was detested by us both, but we had to make sacrifices for the right reasons. He needed to avenge his mother and I needed protection from the mobs that want to torture me.
He’s not what I pictured for my husband. He’s ruthless, calloused, and cold. His walls are higher than mine. He possesses cruelty that makes him feared.
But it doesn’t take long for me to respect him…even like him.
I rely on my husband more than anyone else in the world. He provides for me, protects me, and chases away all my fears.
He lets me graze in the meadow…not a care in the world.
Because the wolf is always watching.
“When people look in the darkness, they see shadows. I see monsters. And I kill the monsters that hunt my sheep.”
I hated this marriage in the beginning, but now I realize how lucky I am.
How lucky I am to be the sheep the wolf protects…and doesn’t eat.

This is a new series and this book is fantastic. Maverick and Arwen are the main characters. They are forced into an arrangement by their fathers. These two have incredible chemistry. Sparks fly when these two are together. They are both very strong, stubborn and know what they want! Have they met their match in each other? I did not want to stop reading once I started this book. It will keep your attention and turning the pages to see what happens next! A definite must read!!! I can not wait to read more!
A different direction from her other books and a thrilling begging to what will no doubt be an outstanding series it is a little odd to see two people letting their fathers not only arrange a marriage but to go along with it especially these days but true to this authors form she makes it all work in a beautifully twisted, messy, and steamy hot way I just hope theres more betrayal and angst coming our way I’m so used to male characters causing the rift that I’m clinging to the fact a woman is causing don’t hesitate to pick this book up I’m already going in for seconds and possibly thirds
This is a wonderful book! I always love Pen’s books, but this one is something else. The main characters are sharp and witty, and the father just makes you want to enter the story to strangle him!!! I love it and cant wait for the Wolf and his Wife!!!!
I love books by Penelope Sky and this series didn’t disappoint. I love how Arwen is relatable and a no nonsense woman with a vulnerable side we all can have. Maverick is the complete opposite with a hard exterior as well as interior until Arwen pulls back a few layers and is able to understand and build a rapport with him. I can’t wait to see what else is in store for these two and their story!
This new series is amazing. I love all of Penelope Skye’s books but I think this one tops them all. Arwen is an amazing fearless woman and Maverick is a surprise to day the least.. I can’t wait for the next book I wish it came out sooner.
Arrange marriage
Enemy to lover romance
Alpha ahole
A new series from Ms. Sky, The Wold and The Sheep brings a different feels from her previous book I’ve read.
Maverick and Arwen were arange to be married for her protection and his revenge. Nothing slow burn comes to romance or couples fighting turn steamy scene here. He is the wolf and she’s the sheep. There’s only his words, his way and her obedience.
There’s no crack in his hard armour for her to penetrate even after the nights they spend in his bed. Not sure how the author gonna pull it off at the second book with how their chemistry so far. Definitly need more sex times
This new series introduces us to Maverick and Arwen, a couple forced into a situation to benefit their fathers. Unfortunately nothing goes smoothly and the couple finds themselves at odds with his father and each other. Penelope Sky knows how to engage her readers and this book is great!
Maverick & Arwen are both at the mercy of their fathers. It appears that the children do pay for the father’s sins after all. They both are backed into a corner when it comes to this marriage. Maverick wants the name of the man who tortured and killed his mother and Arwen’s father has the name but owe money to powerful people.
Arwen and Maverick start off living as nothing more than roommates with rings included but as I had hoped jealousy and want takes over but sometimes it isn’t enough.
Maverick is a good man deep down but he would never admit it.
I devoured this book in a few hours and it’s left me at a loss to what to read next because this book has consumed my thoughts. I can’t wait for the next in the series!
What is a girl to do when her father arranges her marriage in order to save her life? In thew case of Arwen, she goes into the marriage with Maverick with her eyes wide open and her backbone straight. Unfortunately when you make enemies based on your pride with your tyrant of father in law all bets of safety are off. Can Arwen and Maverick find their way out of the darkness? Or will family pride bite them in the end? Once again Penelope Sky creates characters we love to hate and storylines that we cannot put down. This new trilogy has started off with a bang and I cannot wait for the next installment.
Can’t wait to see where the series goes. It’s a must read
Amazing! I couldn’t put it down! Easily the best from Penelope Sky so far!
Another trilogy to dive into from Penelope Sky! As usual, it is a page turner, made me read through the night and morning to find out what will happen.
Maverick and Arwen, meet in unusual circumstances and have to marry each other because of these circumstances. Maverick is that alpha male who seems to care nothing about anything or anyone, but he is very protective of what is his and his wife is his.
Arwen is an alpha female who does not need anyone to do or protect her; yet she finds herself trying to get closer to her husband when he shows he cares in many ways. Is she really aware of the things that face or is she in a bubble?
Can this couple become a real husband and wife team? Can’t wait to see what happens in book 2.
I received an e-copy of this novel from Penelope Sky, but I am under no obligation to review.
Maverick and Arwen are a force to be recon with. He comes off as heartless and cold. But deep down he’s a very compassionate man. He has to become her protector and that’s the last thing he wants. Arwen, doesn’t want or need him to protect her so he said this to her “You’ll be bending the knee with with your ass in the air every night if your father’s enemies find you”. That got her to reconsider. Now they are sharing the same space but they can’t stand each other. But under all that animosity is a deep and profound love that they haven’t discovered yet. It’ll soon come to light after what Arwen, did for those women. And what Maverick went through with his psychopathic father Caspian. That man is batshit crazy!!! What he did to his own son, was unforgivable. I was fortunate enough to received an ARC of this fabulous book to read and to write a review on my own. Thank you Penelope Sky! You rock. Your books just keeps getting better and better with every new one that comes out. I cannot wait to read The Wolf and His Wife! This book is an absolute must read.
I have followed Penelope Skys books from her buttons series and have loved every one of them. I enjoyed this book and it kept me interested enough, but I feel like it was missing the normal tear jerking drama her books usually have. I’m hopeful that the following two books in the series will make up for it and be filled with her normal twists and turns.
Penelope Skye has done it again. Each new series I read becomes my new favorite. I can’t wait to see what happens next.
This is a perfect start to a new trilogy. I can’t wait to see how this story progresses. I truly enjoyed the first part of the journey.

Another homerun for Penelope. Dark, intense, steamy, nail biting, page turning good like only Penelope can do. Can’t wait for #2.
Awesome work once again!!
Impossible to put down, twisted romance. Penelope Sky does it again! You will not be able stop reading this page-turner!
I really feel bad for Maverick and his sister because Caspian is truly an evil and heartless human being. I’m rooting for a happy and healthy relationship for Maverick and Arwen because I believe that there is truly something special between the two of them and I can’t wait to see what happens next with because there is Strong chemistry between them. Anxiously awaiting the next book
