This is my first book by Kayci Morgan as well as my first time listening to Gary Bennett. This was a short but enjoyable MMF paranormal romance. As this was originally written as a Kindle Worlds book, there isn’t a whole lot of world-building or explaining of shifter/human dynamics. That wasn’t any kind of hindrance to enjoying the story. Human Bailey finds herself in the middle of a pack rivalry between Bear-shifters Jaxon and Levi. I’ll admit I had a bit of trouble connecting with Levi’s original treatment of Bailey and her attraction in spite of it, but I found myself invested in all three of the characters. There are well-written MF, MM, & MMF scenes that accentuate the plot. We’re introduced to characters who will appear in subsequent books.
Gary Bennett has an intimate/cozy voice that was an excellent fit for the alternating POVs of our three MCs. He did a good job with male & female voices as well as a wide range of emotions. I’m looking forward to listening to him in the rest of the series.
