Dire Need for Editing
This might be a good story ,at least plot wise, but it was absolutely unreadable due to grammatical errors. I didn't spot a single paragraph that didn't have run on sentences and it was as if the writer had no idea about the use of a comma.
The author could do well with a course in writing. She needs to understand that it's best to show action and not just to tell about it. If this is book one of what is supposed to be a series, there needs to be some world building done.
What are the rules for her Lycans? Is it routine to settle for someone who's not a faded mate or not? How to packs interact with each other? Perhaps the author addressed these questions but I could not get beyond a couple of chapters because of the poor quality of the writing. If you go to the trouble of writing a book you should also go to the trouble of getting it edited and reviewed. Please try a little harder.

Damien has been searching for his mate for decades so he's shocked when he spots her when he's out for a run. He's not sure what pack she belongs to so he enlists the help of his father the pack alpha to make arrangements to visit the neighboring packs so see if she's in either of them. Damien and his pack are lycan's. Still wolf shifters but much bigger and strong than normal wolf shifters.
Adra is turning 18 years old in a few days and when she does, her wolf will emerge and she will be able to find her mate if he's around anywhere near. But when She meets Damien, she knows right away that he's her mate even without having her wolf yet.
They start to get acquainted but someone wants to come between them. When the answers about who and why come to light, it's kinda sad to know that they lost their freedom because of greed, jealousy and other other crazy reasons. Adra's pack and Damien's pack come together to stop the threat and all the while Adra and Damien get much closer and their bond gets much stronger.
I loved that we see Adra's best friend find her mate as well. That was fun.
This was a fun read that kept me entertained throughout the book.

DNF. I made it 63% and couldn't take anymore. I also don't dnf books. It gave me a headache
It had the making of being a good story. But all the errors are horrid. There are whole paragraph repeated. There are moments when your reading but what happens doesn't make any sense at all. It is also annoying with what I can only call kid romance with the constant need to say "I love you" back and forth.

eh
There’s a good story to be had here.. but it skipped so much story that could have built it better and retold almost everything from everyone’s point of view, darn near word for word.. I almost couldn’t get through all of the spelling errors and major grammar mistakes. I will read book 2 to see if anything improves (which I am hoping, because there is a lot of potential here)

It has potential. There are many errors. There's a section where almost an entire chapter is repeated word for word.
The dual POV is unnecessary since it's just a repeat of each other. There's almost never extra plot added. You could cut out a third of the pages.
The bones are there. They just need some more meat and it'd be really catching.

Although there are Grammer, etc. Errors I did get through the story . With that being said, yes, it would be better if that stuff would be fixed, I did like the story. This is a new author to me, and I will continue with the series. People learn with practice, so the rest of the series could be better written.

While there may be a potential for a good story here, it was just sooooo hard to read! The author has no idea how to use any form of punctuation. Every sentence is a run on. Some words are completely wrong for the sentence and make no sense. The grammar was atrocious. All I can say is that reading this made my head hurt.

What in the absolute… okay the premise is decent and it’s nice to see a shifter family that isn’t toxic. What a breath of fresh air. I DNF’d by chapter 2. The spelling and grammar are… atrocious. “I trotted Thru the woods” ??? It’s not a drive-thru. It’s THROUGH. 😭 and that’s just ONE instance. The book is barely readable. I thought maybe I was just tired until I came to “thru”.

Very sweet
The story of Adra and Damien is so sweet. I love how the author didn't drag the book on and on but told the story with passion and adventure. The epilogue is sooo funny. A great read for anyone who enjoys werewolf and Lycan romances.

The Lycan's Bride
I love Lycan stories, but can hardly find them. It's a sweet love story that turns a hard Alpha into goo when he meets his young mate. It was nice reading a book where the alpha and pack were nice and the parents very loving. It's a fast and easy read. 😊

Quick read, sets a fast pace with just enough details to keep it from getting boring. Two issues 1) the book could use a good editor e.g. sweet should be suite. 2) loved the multiple POVs, but just a tad bit too much repetition.

Editor please
Needs editing badly as there are numerous run-on sentences, punctuation errors, pronoun/name errors, verb tense errors, etc. Plot is thin and juvenile with no character development.

Excellent
I enjoyed this book and it was very entertaining. My only problem was that some of the pages repeated, but didn't take away from the book. Enjoy

OK
Once you get past the atrocious (to barely there) punctuation and fundamentally flawed grammar the story itself is OK. Maybe a little sappy in places - but not overly so!

Did Not Finish
April 29, 2024DNF - I can’t personally get past when it’s written in present tense. I made it two chapters in and just couldn’t keep on

Love This Story
I really enjoyed this shifter story, very straight-forward. A little conflict but one that was quickly diffused and they were able to get on with their lives.

A really great read.
This is one of the better stories I've read; in this genre. It's not so detailed that it bores you nor so short that you're left lacking.
