I’ve ran out of patience with this book series. This book series has been milked out for WAY too long. I was a senior in high school, and now I’m halfway through my college years, and it’s already finished.

First off, these books are SO SHORT. Each book is like less than 200 or exactly 200 pages, and the time in between that it takes to be released isn’t worth it. By then, I would have just moved on to another book series.

I calculated that all the books in this series, could make a whole trilogy. I really wanted to buy all the books in this series, but there is no way I’m gonna pay almost $90 for it all. That’s like already four different trilogies I could buy with a book series set in the same world.

I’ve known urban fantasy indie authors who released a whole book series within less than three months, and even those were so much better than this whole series. And it’s taken this series a whole YEAR AND A HALF to get six books out that are so short they could pass for novellas.

The only reason I am adding another star is that the book covers for this series make up for it, they are very pretty to look at, and I am a sucker for good book covers. Also, because this is a series about wolf shifters and I love reading urban fantasy romance series with wolf shifters. And maybe also for Talia, the female main protagonist of this book to, because I have a soft spot for her as well.

The world building, packs, and magic system throughout the series makes for an amazing backdrop. We learn some more and seem some supernatural conflict, but that’s the only thing and asides from the few things I listed above, that I will give credit to this book for. I won’t be reading the rest of the book series.

I will give the book series a consideration because of only one exception: there are few urban fantasy wolf shifter series that look interesting to me, but this one seems like it could appeal to me. Maybe I will get the rest purely because it’s one of the few wolf shifter series that actually has good covers and somewhat decent writing, but that’s only a possibility.

Meh

It was okay, I struggled to finish as I didn't really enjoy any of the characters (especially Talia and Galen) it seemed very surface level and lacked world building or maturity. I don't think I'll read the next book in this series.

There couldn't be a more whiney, immature, wimp of a heroine ever. I guess I like my women to be badass. The author never said why her fated mate wouldn't have sex with her, even though it was made a big deal the whole book. Not buying the next one.

Nothing happened.

I get it’s a slow burn but basically nothing happened. I apparently have to read book two for something to happen as it ended on a cliffhanger but I won’t be doing that.

[THE PETITE LIBR☆RY · Rating 4 out of 5]

Cliffhanger (and a few typos) aside, this was surprisingly good and had me pretty much hooked from the beginning.

With five more books to go though, I’m on the fence about continuing, especially if they all end in cliffhangers in an effort to string the reader along.

Confusing editing

First of all I think too many story lines were crammed into too little text for book one. Both the female MC and male MC have had the same or very similar horrific things happen to them over their lives but they don’t seem too fussed about it until it’s brought up in a weird heart to heart every other chapter.
There are also some inconsistencies that irked me - first the female MC is blonde, then she’s a redhead, then her hair is described as red and gold - what does she look like? Who knows.
The second inconsistency is (spoilers ahead) during the original fight the male MC states that two of his men were killed. Then three. Then back to two again, never mentioning any kind of miracle resurrection of the third man.
My third biggest gripe is that in this story about wolf shifters a witch pops up for a bit, mentions how demons have been spotted in the area and for the male MC to be on guard - which he is understandably concerned about; for about two seconds.
The demons aren’t brought up again until the last couple of pages where one appears, doesn’t seem to do much, makes no attempt to injure any characters and then just sprints off.
I understand building a cliffhanger for book two but the ending just left me very confused, fed up with the two lead characters and with no great desire to find out what happens in book two.

Having a Really Bad Day !! . . .

Because of her father’s actions on a mission that ends up killing a large number of pack members, Talia ends up being rejected by her mate, banished from the pack, and then kidnapped by another pack because Galen doesn’t know she is no longer bound to Maddox. They figure on using her as a bargaining chip. But if she stays in the territory, her old pack will hunt her down and kill her in three days. Talia seems to have more than her share of dismal luck!

Galen is the next Alpha of the Long Claw pack that her father tried to kill. But what happens when her old pack comes after her? And if Galen finds she is useless to him now, will he want to kill her too?

We have a story of Talia who is to be mated to the Alpha's son. When her pack goes to attack the rival pack, what happens next turns Talia's world upside down. What will happen to her? Can she learn to protect herself? Will she lose everything? Follow Talia's story as she learns the way of the world.

Hmm het was een heel kort boek waar alles heel snel in gaat. Het einde komt ook heel abrupt. Als de schrijver het verhaal langer had gemaakt en daardoor meer de tijd had kunnen nemen dan was het beter geweest.

Dus het boek heeft potentie maar de uitvoering vond ik minder.

[Shannon Smith · Rating 3 out of 5]

I wanted something like the stuff I would have read as a teen. This is definitely it although the stuff I read as a child had no form of spice. This has very mild spice.

There is still Much to uncover. The end irritated me not because it was bad but because it's a cliffhanger.

[Rachel · Rating 4 out of 5]

Amelia Shaw's newest series is The Shifter Rejected and the first book, Wolf of Ash was such a good read. This is a dual perspective rejected mate romance that centers on Talia as her life is totally upended by a rejection of her mate and banishment of her pack.

Talia is different from most of the characters that I read about. She isn't strong, determined, angry, or stubborn. Talia seems quite average and a little naive. Everything has been done for Talia and therefore she really doesn't know how to do things or how to figure things out, she can't rescue herself. However, Talia is a sweet person. She's kind, caring, and thoughtful and I have a feeling she will grow stronger.

Galen is the other perspective, he is the rival pack's alpha heir. He's a good guy with a lot on his shoulders currently trying to protect his pack and worrying about his dad's health. He does make a bad decision at first when it comes to Talia but things change and everyone is allowed to make mistakes. Plus there seems to be something going on with Talia and Galen, I have a theory about.

The story was interesting first, what is the history between Talia's old pack and Galen's? Not to mention the actions of her old pack make them seem like the bad guys and was Maddox, Talia's "fated" mate is a coward who has no business being an alpha heir. The man didn't do what was right, all he did was follow his father's (/alpha's) orders how is he supposed to lead a pack?

Wolf of Ash was a good start and had an entertaining story. There are a few interesting things that caught my interest, the witch, the mysterious guy, and especially that ending. Something is up and I'm interested in finding out what that is in the next book, Wolf of Blood.

[Megan · Rating 2 out of 5]

This book wasn’t a complete slog, but there are a lot of issues. One is descriptions. In order for me to really get into a story, I need to know what the setting looks like, what the characters look like, etc. while we do get a few nuggets of physical features, most are just eye it hair colors. I also found that the our main character’s hair color seems to change. She’s described as blonde at first, then red-haired, and then later it’s clarified that she’s blonde with red streaks.

The characters in general are hard to get attached to as well. I felt that I didn’t hate many characters, but I was also bored of them. I don’t know a ton about these characters after this book and it didn’t leave me wanting to learn more about them.

Our main lady character was confusing for me. So after going through a horrible, traumatic event, she ends up at her fiancée’s house and as he’s trying to break up with her, she starts staring at his ass… like… it really took me out of what’s supposed to be a heartbreaking moment.

Man lead isn’t really much better. He’s basically a lukewarm character. I find it odd how fast he warms up to our main character and trusts her. He also thinks this to himself that it’s been like 2 days and he’s wholly trusting this woman, but being self aware doesn’t make it not odd. This is also true for his pack. No one seems to be the least bit suspicious of their new girl from a rival pack. I was expecting at least some of them to reject her or at least be cautious, but none of them are. Our main guy also just blindly trusts another new pack member who was a loner for no real reason. He knows absolutely nothing about this man, but trusted him to help run the bar and protect the main girl. His over-trusting nature could be seen as a good character flaw, but it’s never addressed in this book and it doesn’t really have any consequences.

One more thing that confuses me is the way they’re sometimes weird about nudity. I would think that since this is a society of shifters who have to be naked every time they shift (which is often) they would not really care if other shifters saw them nude or not. And sometimes they seem fine with it if it’s someone of the same sex. Like our main girl doesn’t seem to care if her friends see her nude and only covers up because of the cold. Same for the male lead, but then they get weird if it’s seeing each other nude. The main lead also gets a bit heated thinking about if another man sees her nude. Which reminds me of a strange part where she tells our main guy that no one has really seen her nude before, but that’s 100% not true because earlier in the book she had shifted with her friends. So at least 2 others had seen her nude.

In conclusion, it wasn’t terrible, but there are a lot of issues. Most of these issues are the characters themselves. I feel like if more focus was placed on character development then it would be a bit better. Some parts like our main girl’s various errands and friend visiting could have either been summarized or cut out all together. The romance has fallen flat for me. I know this is like a dated romance like most shifter/wear wolf stories are, but it just wasn’t compelling for me.

[J.E. Feldman · Rating 3 out of 5]

Decent story, but the writing is amateur and prevents it from being great. The story moves along rapidly with little to no description of the characters, setting, etc. It makes it tough to visualize the world and doesn't give enough reason of why we should care about what happens to the characters. This feels like a very rough outline that can be improved upon. Take your time telling the story.

[Cath · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is book one of The Shifter Rejected series and the main character is Talia, a female wolf shifter who is recovering from her bachelorette party night out, when she hears world that her father is in trouble. The attack the males of the Northwood Pack went on the previous night, ending up in a large number of deaths for their pack and few for the Long Claw Pack. Mainly due to her father’s actions in going back to fight the Alpha’s son, when everyone else had already started to retreat. Her father is executed right in front of her by their pack’s Alpha, with his son Maddox, her fiancé and the man she was to marry in less than a week, doing nothing to save him. She has now been banished from the pack and has seventy two hours to cross state lines, or they will kill her as well! She is shell shocked with her father’s death, never mind her fated mate Maddox, breaking their mating bond as if it was nothing. They had never been intimate as he wanted to wait until after their wedding and mating ceremony, but how could he do that with so little emotion? Her two best friends help her to pack up and get going the next day, but she stops in town to sort out her and her father’s bank account and other issues, when she is spotted by some members of the opposing clan.
Galen is the Alpha’s son, of the Long Claw Pack, and has the worry of his father who is still the Alpha, being seriously ill with some strange illness, something very uncommon for a shifter. This is probably why the other pack tried to attack them at this time. He will soon have to take over the pack as Alpha, but first he needs to get revenge for the deaths of his fellow wolf shifters in the attack. Galen sees her in town and shifts to follow her, capturing her shortly after she stops for gas in their area of pack lands. He thinks he can use her relationship with the Alpha’s son, to broker a peace deal with the other pack and stop a war beginning. Her usefulness, in Galen’s eyes, has her not revealing why she was leaving town with everything she owned. Since she is trapped in a warded cabin, she has gone past the deadline her Alpha gave and her pack can still sense she is in the area and are hunting for her! His father ends up in the human hospital, after deteriorating, leaving him wondering where to be half the time. He needs to keep an eye on his prisoner, but also on his dying father who he may not have much time left with. He is also getting far too many feelings for Talia, when she already belongs to another, not that they have even claimed her, which he finds very strange. Add in a new solitary wolf wanting to join his pack and trouble is just around the corner! An interesting start to a series and so much more to become between Talia and Galen, as well as between the two packs. I received an ARC copy of this book form BookSprout and I have freely given my own opinion of the book above.

[Kris · Rating 3 out of 5]

This felt more like Part 1 than Book 1. The book was a really quick read - only a few hours. I was left with a lot of questions. Talia, as the fated-mate of the son of her pack’s alpha, seems very naive and unaware of pack politics. I’m not convinced that she even was actually Maddox’s fated mate. Not much was explained about how that relationship works in this book’s world, but one would think it wouldn’t be so easy for him to reject her. Even her father’s crime, the one that resulted in his execution and her exile, was more of a mistake in judgment that led to deadly consequences than a traitorous action. There is just so much about how a pack works that the reader does not know. The chapters that are from Talia’s POV should give us more insight. It seems that in this shifter world, packs are more patriarchal, and female members are not involved in governing or politics, but tasked with keeping the home and children, but that’s all we really get. Considering that Talia has grown to adulthood in the pack and about to marry the alpha’s son, we should have been afforded some more information about how things worked.

Galen, the son of the neighboring pack’s alpha, seems like a much better person than Maddox, and acts around Talia more like one would expect of a fated mate. He’s clearly drawn to her, as we can see from the chapters from his POV, and becomes very protective. Talia is still put in what I would think would be a few dangerous situations in so-called “neutral” territory. While Galen has many qualities that would make a good Alpha, some of his behavior, like being quick to trust a newcomer, or letting Talia out of his sight, had me shaking my head.

The biggest drawback of this book is the lack of world-building. These 2 packs are in close proximity and on the verge of war - why? How do things in the packs work? Maddox’s alpha father banished Talia across state lines, but there are apparently a couple other packs (not just Galen’s) within the same state. How could the pack hunt her down for not crossing state lines if she found protection with another pack? Where are all the women? The book opens with Talia and her two best friends, and then later they help her pack to leave when she’s exiled, but other than that, the story is filled with male shifters - the alphas, their sons, and their betas. Then the book ends. There are so many loose ends that will need to be addressed in the next book.

[Kreela · Rating 3 out of 5]

Amelia Shaw’s Rejected Mate:

Dual POV

The second chapter says it all: Talia’s pack has no sense of strategy or warfare. They opt to attack another pack through brute force, and their planning is lacking. I would expect a cavalry force, so to speak, or a flanking force, or a spear-headed assault. They just blindly sledgehammer into the territory. I just laughed. Talia deserves better.

Since the attack resulted in a number of deaths, Talia’s father takes the blame and is sentenced to death for his attempt to take out the leader. I suppose the mistake was bucking the Alpha’s orders to retreat? Because the goal was to take out the other pack’s alpha…

Her friends Celia and Nyssa are supportive after Talia gets banished. Normally in a shifter novel the packmates also shun the MC, so this is a welcome change. They help her pack up and leave town, but unfortunately, in her grief, she lingers too long and gets captured by the son of the very alpha who was attacked. This poses a problem, since her pack will kill her if she stays within the state.

Talia is sweet and thankfully, normal in capabilities. Sometimes she is clueless. Galen is also sweet. Since I prefer a single POV, I had to think about what Galen's perspective brings to the story. From his perspective, we discover his father is desperately ill, which is abnormal for shifters. The drama actually comes from the plot. At first I thought this story was the typical copycat rejected mate theme, you know, been there read that; however, I think this is more of a preview of what lies ahead.

There are a couple of hints that make me more interested in the second book than the first. [careful: possible spoilers]: First, how can his father be ill? If not cancer, could it be poisoning or a spell? Second, the introduction of demons and witches. Could the new guy in Galen's pack be one of those scouts? Why bother with Talia, and why did the witch think she is odd?

If you like sweet romances with action, dual POV, then this is right up your alley.

It’s Good, Fun, and Straightforward

It’s hard to put to words why this isn’t more than a 3 for me, particularly because I did finish it and I did mostly like it. The writing is pretty well done, so that was a huge bonus for reading it- it’s tough when I have to mentally correct stuff in my head. Takes me straight out of a story. This didn’t so that, so that’s a huge plus.

Some spoilers, but I’m trying to put to words my feelings.

I think what bugs me is that Talia seems oddly passive, particularly toward the end. She just sort of starts existing and starts being a liability, which frustrated me. It feels… contrived, maybe? The things happening to her? She has basically no sense of self preservation toward the end of book one, and while this is technically a slow burn, I feel like these two crossed the whole “our packs are violently opposed and despise each other and your pack killed three of my people and i killed people you personally know” bridge REAL fast. Also Talia just… being on board with helping Galen avenge his pack immediately. This would mean potentially hurting or facing off against her supposed bestest friends in the world, but she’s just… good to go. Just nods when he suggests it for the first time in a meeting in the bar.

I think if she’d been angry, it would have made more sense. A reason to turn on them exists right there- they betrayed her. If she was enraged, I’d believe it better. If she wanted vengeance herself.

But she just feels so passive toward the end.

I still finished it, which is another huge point because I DNF the second I feel an urge to typically. The length is really good, the background plot is intriguing, and I want to know what happens with certain plot points. I’m up and down lol. I really liked Talia in the beginning, and I really like Galen for the most part. I liked all of the supportive women in Talia’s life. There’s some very good aspects to this story.

My feelings:

Great short read.
I have read a couple of this authors books now, and I have enjoyed them all. Fast paced, and short enough to read on your lunch break at work:)

“Promise me.” My father growled. The hairs on the back on my neck stood on end as I offered up the only words my father wanted to hear. “I promise, Dad. I’ll avenge our fallen men. They won’t take this pack from me. No one will.” Then I closed my eyes and hung my head, the weight of the world on my shoulders.”

I loved Talia, loyal and caring, and super sweet. She made a few bad choices but nothing to make her come across and brainless. I felt sorry for her the whole time. Being cast out cause of her dad, not exactly far, but I suppose that’s how shifter packs work. I had always thought that if your mated you cannot just reject them, but hers did.

“Dad lay back against his pillows, exhausted. “You will be a great Alpha, Galen. You love our people. You’re strong and loyal. And you have a good moral compass.”

The rival pack that grabs her when she is on the run, think they can use her against her old pack, but they don’t know she was rejected.

“What should I do when I see one?” I asked her, not having any idea what the answer would be. Were they deadly to us? Should I be concerned for my pack? Could I even kill one if I wanted to? “Do not be afraid of it,” she said. “They are here only as scouts; messengers for their evil masters. They won’t hurt one such as you.”

Super enjoyed this! Keen for more!

“You’re safe here. I promise. As long as I’ve got breath in my body, I’ll fight for you.”

This book follows a woman whose fated mate rejects her before their widding when her father commits the mistake of attacking another werewolf territory. She is forced to leave her pack. Only she's kidnapped by the attacked, nearby, soon-to-be-alpha werewolf to serve as their paw to force her pack to pay for what they have done.

Thoughts and feelings:

🍁I'm still in the mood for a fantasy audioobook, so when I came across this one yesterday, I decided to give it a go. This one was quite alright. I was engaged with the story and the characters. It is quite predictable, though. I'm just going with the flow and listening to it with an absent mind. I don't really need to pay that much attention because it is THAT predicatable. I'm not minding that for now.

🍁Having said that, there is nothing special about the writing style. It feels more like something you'd come to read in Wattpad. I used to read a lot in such apps, so this is nothing new to me. It's been years since I picked such books.

🍁The book is very short. You can finish it in one sitting. Actually, all of the six books in this series are short. I wonder how that will play into the story and what it will serve. for the time being, I'm going to just listen to them all back to back and see what will happen.

🍁Characters? I don't really have much to say. I don't relate to them. They have lives and personalities, but something feels off about the protagonists. They are just...boring? predictable?
I don't know.
It feels like the author is trying too hard to make them something they are not?

A rejected mate, an enemy packs future alpha, and a mysterious sickness. Wolf of Ash is a wolf shifter novella with a touch of magic and romance.

Talia's fated mate is Maddox, future alpha of the Northwood pack. During an attack on another pack, Talia's father makes a deadly mistake resulting in the deaths of several of their pack members. Her father is sentenced to death, and Talia is banished. She is given 72 hours to leave the state or she will succumb to the same fate as her father. Maddox is a coward and easily rejects their bond to follow his father's law. On her way out of town, she is recognized as Maddox's fated mate and kidnapped by the enemy pack's future alpha, Galen.

I liked this audiobook and am interested enough to continue the series. I have so many questions left unanswered. Is Talia more than a wolf shifter? Was Maddox her fated mate? Can wolf shifters only have one fated mate? What is this unknown sickness? What did Talia's dad do to have him killed and have her banished?

This is the first shifter romance I have finished with a rejected mate trope, and I found I enjoyed that aspect. I am interested in knowing Maddox's reaction when he realizes the enemy pack has his ex-fated mate.

Compañera destinada al futuro Alfa, ese era el destino de Talia, hasta que una noche, en la que su manada decide atacar a la vecina, su padre hace algo mal y es asesinado por el Alfa, ella es desterrada de su manada rechazada por su destino. Todo eso era lo peor que le podía pasar, pero se da cuenta que no es más que la punta del iceberg, cuando el Alfa vecino la secuestra para negociar con su manada, sin saber que ellos la querían muerta.
Es un libro corto, divertido y rápido de leer. Me sorprendió como todo de alguna manera el tiempo pasa rápido pero los días que transcurren en la historia no pasan nunca, los personajes principales son los más notables, ya que los secundarios no destaca mucho, pero de igual manera logré engancharme. Los personajes principales me gustaron. Talia tiene una fuerza interior sorprendente, y Galen, a pesar de su aspecto rudo y dominante, es muy tierno y agradable, todo lo contrario a lo que parece. El cómo avanzan a pesar de todo lo que se les viene encima me gusta, el como él la protege y ella se siente completa con él, simplemente lo amo. Y el final abierto me hace querer seguir con el siguiente libro, me deja con intriga y quiero saber que pasa con el resto de la saga, así que voy directo a leer el siguiente y ver que tal.
