This is an ok Breeds story from Lora Leigh. Not one of her best efforts in my opinion. I'm glad I read this at the bookstore rather than getting it for myself. The story has the typical plot device of the heroine who refuses to believe she's meant to be with a Breed. Honestly what I wouldn't give to have a Breeds book where the heroine says right off the bat "You're my mate? That's great!"
The heroine, Storme, is quite an unlikable character. She whines far too often. She keeps insisting that Breeds are all bad. Her negative attitude bogs down the book for too long. It was believable in the beginning of the story, but she continues to keep it up for so long that the plot slows down because of her angst. It's no fun to read chapter after chapter where she insults and mocks the Breeds who are taking care of her. Styx is fine as the alpha wolf Breed, but I didn't get a good sense of his character. He's at least not irritating like Storme. He's not my favorite alpha male (that would be Mercury and Tanner). I wasn't sure what to make of his Scottish brogue that comes and goes.
Overall, if you like the Wolf Breed books, you'll want to read this one, but if you're a fan of the Feline Breeds books like me, you might not like this one as much. There are better Feline Breeds books like Tanner's Scheme, Mercury's War, and Dawn's Awakening.
