Wolf's Haven is a story that follows a woman named Tamara. Tamara is in a lot of trouble. Her fiance, Brad, is not a good man. He abuses her and takes her out on his multiple burglary excursions. She wants out and she wants out now. She wants to leave and start a new life with a new identity. But first, she needs to make sure her plan works. While on another heist, Tamara makes her escape. But while the cops close in, she is rescued by an unlikely hero; a wolf. The wolf saves her life. When she wakes up, she is in a strange cabin with an even stranger man named Devin. She doesn't trust him, but has nowhere else to go. But they soon become attracted to each other and she finds out his secret. His secret will be a fight for both of them and they don't know if they will survive their new roles.I love my shapeshifter romances and this was just the right kind of read I loved. It was a fast read and it was addictive. I loved the build-up of the story and the characters in this book. Kirk has done such a great job. This is my first read from her and it definitely won't be my last. I am in love with this series.I really liked Tamara. You instantly for sorry for her and her situation. She is frightened and scared for her life because her fiance Brad is a monster. She was tricked into a relationship with him. She has every right to be on the run. But it is great that she ran into Devin. Devin is a lone wolf for the most part. His pack, well his father who was the Alpha, has banished him. He doesn't want the position, but the replacement is not a great option either. The one that wants to lead will do anything to get to the top. He has to be there to make sure he doesn't get to the top even if he won't take the position. But he has to look after Tamara first. He knows she is running from something or someone. He wants to help her, but he doesn't really know why. He is protective of her immediately. I love Devin and I loved how much backstory we get with Devin and Tamara. They both have pasts that they are running from and demons that continue to haunt them.The story was well paced and well put together. I did have a few issues though. I couldn't wait until Devin and Tamara reached Caedmon territory. But I would have liked if we got more of that and the pack especially the villain in the story, Darius. Darius is Devin's cousin and desperately wants to lead the pack, but he is more of a dictator and will hold the pack back. But the fight between them was a bit rushed and short for me. I wanted more darnit! The same goes for Tamara and her ex-fiance Brad. I like my revenge stories and I would have liked to have seen Brad get punished at least a little bit for what he did to Tamara. But this is a short story, so that happens. I loved where the story went and the things that were uncovered about Devin's family. I can't say what, but it an interesting surprise. Again, I wanted a little more here, but I am still satisfied.This is such a good story, The scenes between Devin and Tamara were very hot and steamy. You will definitely need a cold shower after reading this. I only wish it were longer. But the read is fast and the characters are very likable. You relate to them very quickly. I love them and their stories. I can't wait to start book 2, We get to follow Tamara's friend who tried to help her escape in this book and Devin's best friend Nick. Definitely recommended for PNR fans for sure.
