To be loved by the prince
Skye is a space pilot who is on a mission to rescue Ral the werewolf prince. Neither of them thought they would find each other or love. I enjoyed this book and the tale of their journey, but they both made it so difficult when neither of them are able to really communicate effectively. Will they find their HEA or will the miscommunication end their love before it takes root? I hope the next book in the series is just as good.
for the audio –
Wanted by the Werewolf brings you a listen that you won’t want to stop with two of the best audio things – shifters and space opera! That’s right. Skye is the best pilot the coalition has and she’ll save his high and mightiness Prince Ral even if he’s just using her for her skill set. As a military leader, she has connections and knows when to use them. She was just the right amount of fire to stand up to the enemy and to a Prince. This was a pure fun listen. Valentina Ortiz made the bickering between Skye “Captain” and Ral “Your Highness” an absolute delight to listen to. The story did get to the end where it was like, come on, you just wanted to shake this Captain and have her see sense already. This is the first in the series. So there are threads to keep your interest in wanting to know what happens to the others in the story.
So I want to start by saying I absolutely loved the plot and premise of this story. It really was unique and a lot of fun. I even really liked the main character and her brusque personality. It gets three stars because it was truly a phenomenal story. Also, there were very few spelling errors, though a number of grammatical ones.
Wanted By The Werewolf Prince is a story about a human space pilot (Skye) and the adventures she has on the way to love with a prince of the werewolf peoples of a certain planet. She helps to rescue him and his sister from a weretiger run planet to start the book off, then their adventures go from there.
Skye is a fun character as she is rather spunky, foul mouthed, and a dedicated pilot (she lives to fly, without a doubt). She also has a conscience, which has gotten her in trouble in the past, and continues to through the book. Ral is entertaining because it’s just fun to watch him flounder when she doesn’t do what he says like everyone else. Their tale is full of action, adventure, romance, profanity, steam, and some political intrigue.
My issues with the book are mainly that it’s in first person perspective, and ONLY from Skye’s perspective at that. Though I enjoyed watching Ral, I never got a feel for his character or personality and I do believe a little time in his head would have made the book considerably better as well as easier to read. There were several instances where I went back and reread a page only to realize that I didn’t miss anything, but in the way of first person retellings, there was simply a jarring shift. The only other, though small, issue I had was that the author threw out statements that assumed you understood something that was never mentioned or referenced. Sometimes these were eventually explained, sometimes not. That’s a bit frustrating when it happens.
Overall a very fun read. Despite a few issues that hindered the book from being great, it was still enjoyable. I will be continuing to read the series and hopefully I will get to see the author grow.
