Publisher's summary

My goals for college were pretty simple: Get an education. Meet some new friends. Enjoy the mountains of Colorado. If I was lucky, find a boyfriend. Pretty sure they did not include being stalked by a magical black market. Or having multiple boyfriends. I mean, come on. What are the odds?

Unfortunately, my birth parents were mages that left me orphaned at a young age. Instead of growing up surrounded by spells and magic, I grew up with normal humans. The world might know about magic, but that didn't mean they accepted it. Mages have no rights, and my foster parents tried to stamp out the tiny bit of magic I held on to. Notice I used the word tried? I manage to sneak in a few things here and there. The perfect temperature pizza? Not a problem. And I've never had a bad hair day in my life. Don't even get me started on red lights....

But it was those little things that put me on the black market's radar. An untrained mage with little knowledge of the magical world was easy pickings. Now, the only thing standing between me and a whole lot of unpleasantness is the pack of hot werewolves that made me theirs.

Contains mature themes.

An okay story

I give this 3.5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Spice = 🌶️🌶️

The story was a bit slow and picked up at the end. The female narrator isn’t the best at the male voices and I hated the country twang. The climax was a bit…anticlimactic -in that we are told rather than shown how the FMC got into trouble which felt abrupt. This is a very slow burn and for sure has a YA feel.

I love the narrators.

I am so picky about voices in audiobooks but Mia is amazing. The story was good as well. Not what I was expecting and I'm excited to see what is next for Sofia and her pack.

Unconventional but cool story

Pretty decent book the narrator wasn’t so bad. Just needs a more dramatic voice esp if your going to voice over romance.

The Best Story I Have Read in a While!

Let me start with saying that Dakota Brown is a new author to me and I am happy that I decided to give this series a chance. There are several reasons I enjoyed this book and among the top few are: no other women drama, The FMC knows she is not a badass and is smart about it. She doesn't fall into the same "to dumb to live" mistakes other FMCs do when they try to be badass. She actually has a healthy sense of self preservation., She does not lose herself completely in her guys and keeps up her friendships that she made out side her "pack". I enjoyed this book so much that I immediately went and bought book 2. I would recommend this book to anyone that was looking for a story that only had a little angst and was mostly light hearted.

Good plot, relationships under developed

The plot to this story is interesting, but the relationships are under developed and just sprout out of the ether without any real tending. It's worth a little time, and I will try the next book in the series. I thought the narration to be decent.

Thoroughly enjoyable RH

Our heroine Sophia is a freshman college student so I guess this story comes under the academy genre, but she is attending a regular human university. Its an engaging, fairly light story and the guys are caring, protective and sweet.

This is a slow/med burn RH, the series is slow build. There is a little bit of heat, and a hint of mm.

The narrators did a good job, I am looking forward to book 2 coming out on Audible (I already own the ebooks).

I just don’t get it

Like a lot of reverse harem, the relationships felt too quick and forced. It seemed like YA writing with mature thence, but no depth. I will just drop it into my archives and forget about it.

Refreshing and delightful

Such a great heartfelt, slow-burn story. There was drama, but not within the team/pack. It only strengthened the newly found bonds of the FMC and her roomie, along with a trio of hunks. I was especially impressed with Sofia(FMC) and her strength and her endearing humble confidence. I can’t remember the last book I heard where the FMC didn’t constantly asked “why” after everything a man said in the book. Many people confuse strength with stubbornness. You can still go with the flow and not be a push over. There was minimal internal dialog. a pet peeve of mine- when a character has a full 10 minute talk to themselves in the middle of a conversation with someone…like really??
*insert eyeroll here*
So THANKYOU for creating humorous and heartfelt dialog within the characters, you really get the vibes of genuine people. I felt this story had a very healthy portrayal of relationships and teach the meaning of strength in numbers. Can’t wait to devour the next book!
