Demitri is by far the most submissive wolf shifter I have ever encountered, but luckily for him Kiernan, his human mate, is willing to take control.I was intrigued and amused by the fact that Demitri was so submissive, while Kiernan had a take charge personality. I understand that wolves are usually submissive to alphas but never imagined a wolf shifter would be submissive to their human mate. This was a unique twist to a shifter story. It shocked me because shifter stories are so prevalent in our society, that a author can find a way to re-invent it was refreshing.Demitri's personality as well as his background is one that immediately made me sympathize with him. He has had a rough life, with a abusive father, who cannot seem to accept any part of who he is whether it be his wolf, or his sexuality. This immediately made me wonder about his mother, but she seems to be a victim who welcomes and accepts the abuse, leaving Demitri a natural submissive subject of his father's fanatical whims. Demitri seems to be a clear underdog in life, and I could not help but root for him when reading this story.This story was a pretty easy read because the author immediately piqued my interest with the storyline and kept it going. I would definitely consider this a story that could stand on its own, and does not require the reader to have read the previous stories. I hadn't read any and was able not fall right into the storyline and enjoyed it.With the antagonist plot pushing Demitri's and Kiernan's relationship forward continuously, this story seems to run smoothly and would definitely be a good read for anyone.Originally posted at Long and Short Reviews
