Although this is book 2 of the series, you could probably read this book without reading book 1.  Although we meet many of these characters in the first book, it’s almost an entirely different story, focusing on Convel, a lazy shifter that could be a great leader – if he wanted to be.In this story, Convel finds out the hard way that being lazy and shirking responsibilities to your clan can only last for so long.  Eventually you have to step up…and step up he does!  But of course, he doesn’t do it alone.  Convel has his own group of friends (although he has a hard time admitting he cares about them enough to call them friends) that he works with.  All with their own “issues”, and all fully entertaining, and often pretty funny in their jabbing banter.I really loved so many elements of this story.  I loved the path Convel was forced to take to find out who he really is, and how much those around him really mean to him.  And I have to say that the more he finds about himself, the more I really like him.  The internal struggle often pretty funny…with both himself and his wolf.The supporting characters of this book are pretty great too.  They all have very unique, very unusual personalities.  You would think there’s no way people this different would get along at all, but it ends up working perfectly.There is constantly something different going on in this story, where no character ever gets a break, and it keeps you sucked in, waiting to find out what will happen next.The only thing that keeps me from giving it 5 stars, is that there are some parts that are a bit heavier in descriptiveness, which ends up losing a bit of momentum, but at the same time, they are very well done descriptions, and aren’t in any way boring, so although you lose momentum, I still had NO desire to put the book down!  This is definitely a great book, and an author with a great future, and I very much look forward to the next book in the series!*Note: You will find other reviews that mention grammar and other editing issues, however I do not include these types of things in my reviews, as many new authors do make frequent changes and updates to their e-books, as they are able to find assistance.  I review based on content/story only.This Review is copyrighted. Please do not share without giving Paranormal Reads/Erin full credit.
