A Scattered Thoughts and Rogue Words Review An Alisa Review:

Seth so adorable and shy, he comes up with a crazy plan to actually meet and send time with his mate but it allows him the opportunity to find the ability to relax around Jack. I really liked Jack for who he is and how open he was to this new community he lived in, though I felt his initial reaction to shifters was strange he did come through in the end.

I liked Max much more in the story and found him hilarious at times, he was the perfect complement to Seth’s shyness. I loved that Jack felt such a connection to Seth’s wolf even before he knew the truth about everything,

The cover art by Brooke Albrecht is once again nice, it follows the same style as before but gives us a visual of Seth.

Better than the first one, and I’m glad the storyline felt a lot smoother, probably in part because it was a more single chunk of time rather than time jumps. Still mainly only an okay read though; not quite as amusing as I’d hoped from the blurb. I love a comedy of errors (“what could go wrong?”) but this wasn’t really a comedy at all.
