Review: Maybe 3.5, would like to see better world building
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 01 24, 2013
I read this through and it was okay.  There were parts I really liked, like when Alyssa decides to move out and move on, that took some guts.  I liked the guys, they were sweet.  I think this could have been a five star with a little more detail.The part where this book fell a part was the world building.  It was not very clear.  I finally at the end was pretty sure people knew that others existed, but it is never clear.  There are lines like "do you not fight professionally because your a hyena?" (paraphrasing from memory).  It is not clear if that is by choice or b/c the world knows and it is not allowed.At the end someone shifted in front of a human, so I think they know and are okay with the were community.  This has the potential to be really really good, with a little more world building.  The sex scenes were average, and I started skimming them to get back to the relationship parts.  The end felt a little rushed, like everything needed to be wrapped up so they could start on the next book in the series.  Also there are a lot of differences in packs, and cultures, but is vague references.  I would like to know more about the Alaska pack, I was surprised to find out there was a male alpha later when it sounded like mostly women and kids.I am curious about Alyssa in the future and will probably get the next book to satisfy my curiosity.
