This was a fantastic debut, with exciting characters and many interesting factors that set it apart from so many books in this genre. The thing that stood out for me the most was that Anna was not in college, or fresh out of it, and she was not a size zero. Thank you V.A. Dold for giving us a real woman to enjoy a romance with. And, thank you for giving us a gorgeous hero that loved every one of her curves.I enjoyed learning about the Shifters; about their magic, the special bond mates share etc. I do feel that the dreams that Anna and Cade shared could have been spread throughout the story, instead of being shown them all at once in the beginning. I realize that this was setting up the rest of the story and the connection between these two mates, however, I think the story would have flowed better, had the dreams been relived at certain special moments within the story as Cade and Anna's mating bond strengthened.This story was a great romance, but I would have liked more tension. Anna seemed to accept everything Cade threw her way, instead of questioning it. Even when Anna's children found out the truth, they seemed to be surprised for about a second before being cool with the fact that shifters existed.I am looking forward to reading the rest of this series. The end of Cade's story was a great set up for Simon's love story, and I'd really like to see where Dold will take this series.
