I’m assuming this book is part of a series because you have already established characters and a cliffy at the end that sets up another book, so thus my assumption.
Other than that, it was an ok shifter story. Sort of a second chance romance. Why didn’t I rate it higher? Pacing for one – 3/4 of the book was internal angst. I really felt the end was rushed and I felt like more could have been done with the hero. I was expecting him to take over the bad pride or come into his own but nope. His backyard fighting and being broody really had no place in the story and the heroine was a wimp for too long. Yes she found a spine but it was a little too late for me. I was just over it.
