Gibson and Zach meet when Gibson's brother, Ellis, chases Zach through the forest, down the hill and into the river (head first, not feet first). This did add to the general 'light and chill and fluffy'-feel of this story, though. Not a lot actually happens in this book (there is a wee bit of drama, but I think that might be the set-up for the next story?!) and we have the dreaded 'Six Weeks Later'-sentence, which I (personally) sometimes find somewhat of an excuse, for not writing the story.īut then it is explained what DID happen, and I didn't actually mind that sentence so much. I really did enjoy this a lot, so it wasn't the biggest 'issue', but I did notice that it was not a comprehensive, mystery-masterpiece of 10.000 people and a plot that took 4560 twists and turns. ![]() It is a novella, and I understand that she was finishing up Miki's story (with a lot of words) so she wanted something lighter, which I think is a pretty apt description of this story. She has written an introduction to a series, I'm pretty sure will be fantastic.īut that is also one of my niggles with this: it does feel a wee bit like an introduction. Thank you to the author/publisher for the audio in exchange for a honest review I like to think that this was a nice segue towards Ellis’s story, and I look forward to more of everyone in the sequel! Overall, this was sweet, interesting, and of course sexy, and it's quite doubtful fans of Ford won't enjoy her new endeavor into the world of werewolves! However, I didn’t feel it detracted much from Gibson and Zach. ![]() Regardless, if you like shifters, if you like a slow burn, this is for you! Many have mentioned that half the focus is on Gibson’s brother Ellis and his painful steps towards healing, and that’s true. ![]() As I always say, audios are a personal thing, just like one’s reading experience and unfortunately, McClain is not an automatic win for me. If not for this one thing, he’d be in my top 5 for sure. It’s not as strong as it has been in some of his other works, but it was there enough to be distracting. However, for some unknown reason, there’s just one little quirk of his that drives me batty. He’s got a great baritone, emotes well, and varies his voices expertly. Narrated by Derrick McClain, I know he’s a fan favorite and with good reason. It doesn’t hurt at all that he greatly admires Gibson’s steadfast devotion towards his wolfy brother Ellis, who’s stuck in his animal form as a coping mechanism to past war trauma. However, it takes some time for Zach to wrap his brain around the existence of werewolves despite the strong mutual attraction. It wouldn’t be a Ford story if there wasn’t at least insta-lust and this was no different. It’s not a light your pants on fire type of romance, nor filled to the brim with her descriptive prose, but it's still a decent start to a new series.Īs per the blurb, Zach inadvertently runs across a huge wolf and straight into the arms of said wolf’s human brother Gibson. I quite enjoyed this understated foray into the shifter world by Rhys Ford. Loving a werewolf-loving Gibson with all his secrets-has its challenges but Zach believes their love is worth fighting for, especially since his heart knows the big bad wolf is really a prince in disguise. Discovering werewolves are real astounds him, but not as much as the man who rescues him from the icy water then walks into Zach’s heart as if he owns it. Leaving behind his city life, he longs to find peace and quiet, and hiking the trails behind his property seems safe enough-right up to the moment an enormous black wolf chases him into a lake, nearly drowning him. Until Ellis chases a handsome man off a cliff and into the frozen waters beside their cabin, changing Gibson’s life forever.įor Zach Thomas, buying an old B&B is a new start. It’s a simple life made up of long runs on two legs-or four-and quiet evenings…. Gibson Keller’s days are fairly routine: wake up early, get some work done, drink lots of coffee, and take care of Ellis, his older brother stuck in wolf form after coming home from the war. ![]()
