Enjoyment: 2.5Quality: 3.0Characters: 2.5Plot: 2.0

Two men haunted by the same ghost… Falling for “the other man” in my marriage was never part of the plan. Then again, according to Nicolae Ursache, I am the other man, and human wedding vows don’t apply. Not to werewolves. Nicolae is a smug, arrogant alpha male stereotype--and I do mean alpha in the literal sense--but when the same people who killed my wife kidnap my teenage daughter, he’s my only chance at getting her back. The fact that Nicolae was my wife’s rightful mate means that we share a mutual interest in bringing Ellie home, but I never could’ve imagined how he planned to do it. I will do anything to protect my daughter. Even if it means becoming the plaything, or worse, of the man I loathe most. This dark shifter romance contains mature subject matter. **NOTE: There is no mpreg in this universe.**

    For such a short book, the pacing is rather slow. It's not what I expected from the synopsis

    I was quite disappointed, to be honest. The twist felt contrived and like it was only added for shock value more than a natural consequence of the plot. The characters were one dimensional and the relationship dynamics not super engaging (especially with how the synopsis sets our expectations)
