katiechu's review against another edition

adventurous dark emotional reflective tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

5.0

This book would not be for everyone but somehow was exactly what I needed to read right now. I have been describing it as part werewolf erotica and part spy thriller but you could also add

tragic romance

to the mix. Despite the graphic content, I think it’s beautifully written which I also appreciated.

I really should have stopped reading at the 'I'm not a misogynist, but..."  near the beginning of the book. 
All you need to know to determine if this book isn't for you is that at one point, the main character compares his partner's (NSFW)

wolf vagina to 'a fevered baby's mouth'
