3.5 stars. I love Ashley's historicals but it took me a little while to warm up to this PNR series. I really enjoyed the last couple of books but I have to admit that I wasn't looking forward to Graham's story. I think I'm alone in that, but that's OK with me.

So, I was kind of right to feel that way. I never really warmed up to Graham. He's a bit too much of an old fashioned alpha for me. He's definitely tempered a bit, here in his own book. But it's still there. But I did think he & Misty were a good couple. And the interactions with the cubs are adorable. What I enjoyed more than the romance is the is the interesting world that Ashley has built. The shifters are still discriminated against and they continue to work around that. This book gets more into the fae and introducing some other races stranded in the human realm. So, while this is never going to be my favorite couple I'm still looking forward to others in the series and the expansion of this world.
