Kaje Harper always delivers the goods. She writes books the way that I like them- lots of character development, a slow-build romance, and just really smart writing. Though I didn't like this one as much as the first, this book still was a success for me.This book wasn't as... romantic as the first. It takes a long time for the two MCs to get together, and even when they do, they are very guarded with each other. I think that element of the book interested me in a way- it wasn't the typical insta-love, shifter book. It was something more difficult to obtain. This book played hard to get with me.This book is filled with things that I like, romance and sex aside. I really enjoyed all of the discussion of pack politics and pack dynamics. I was genuinely interested in all of those details. Kaje is an awesome world-builder, in my opinion.However, I'll admit that I didn't like a few things about this book. I didn't love the first person POV here (I often don't mind it, but here it seemed too intrusive), and I missed the duel POVs of the first book. However, Kaje's skilled writing more than made up for these issues for me. I couldn't put this book down, though I expect the pace would drag for some readers.I hope and pray that the author continues on with this series. I'm really emotionally invested in this workd and these characters. I'll keep reading if you keep writing, Kaje!
