May the Wolf Die
Marlowe thought she’d already faced the worst—losing the last of her family, discovering her supernatural roots, and surviving a vicious attack by vampyrs led by her ex-fiancé. All she wants now is to start a new life with her alphas in the wolf-shifter town of Maiingan Hollow.
Those plans come crashing down, however, when she learns that her twin brother Ezra is not only still alive, he's wielding powerful magic and threatening to take her away from her bonded pack.
As Marlowe grapples with the shocking revelation and begins to piece together the truth of her history, a new threat a battle for the last omega's ownership. Petty jealousies turn into brutal power struggles, and the pack must invoke an archaic rite that will see her fought over by the most dominant alphas in the land.
But will it even matter when the king of the fae realm plans to take Marlowe and use her potent strength to achieve his own dark goals? And will Ezra, the king's loyal commander and Marlowe's long-lost brother, become her strongest ally or her worst enemy?
May the Wolf Die is the gripping sequel to In the Mouth of the Wolf, where Marlowe must decide what she’s willing to sacrifice—and who she’s willing to fight—for the freedom of not just herself, but the people of two worlds now on the brink of war.

I received a digital ARC of this book for my honest opinion.
I will also do my best to give my review without spoiling, however this is a sequel. After finishing In The Mouth Of The Wolf I was excited to see where this story continued. The twists that the first book ended on kept me engaged enough to hook me in for another ride. Overall I came away from this read with a 2.5/5. Similarly to when I reviewed the first book, there are places I feel like this book really shined and I also feel like this book fell a little flat.
When it comes to what I enjoyed in this book it is very similar to the one before it. I love a snippy one liner, and not just letting men walk all over women. I enjoy emotional complexity when someone decides to come back from the dead, and how that is going to present itself. There were some similarities to issues I had with the books as well. Pacing was a bit of a bigger issue in this book than the last one. It felt a bit jumpy at times. And, without spoiling anything, the pacing at the end felt confusing and a little rushed.
Then on a personal note, when it comes to kink, safe words shouldn’t be used as a joke. This might just be a me thing, but it just rubbed me the wrong way. If there is any kind of power exchange or play going on there should be a discussion of limits and some sort of limit if stop will or won't be respected. Especially when a character like Marlowe keeps being seen only as a sex object.
In the end, I feel like there was a great premise that had some pacing issues and might have been squished into one book. Sometimes it's okay to cut some aspects out or expand an idea into another book. Overall, I am not mad at these books. If you are looking for a spicy supernatural duology with A/B/O with some craziness thrown in these might be the books for you!!

After finishing Book 1 (which I thought was amazing), I was REALLY excited about this book. Unfortunately, until about 90%, it was pretty unbearable to read. The sexual harassment and assault on every other page was too much for me I guess. Not to mention that Marlowe and the guys are apart for quite a bit of the book.
That said, the overall story was good enough (and different enough) to keep me reading until the end, so I give it 2 stars for that.

a gem!
I only stumbled across this series through a stuff your kindle / omegaverse event. Surprisingly unique, and refreshing after all the identical shifter / omega books out there. Look forward to reading more by this author.

It's such a shame this book is the end; the world this author has created is fantastic.
It's packed with detail and thrilling right up to the final chapter.
A unique Omegaverse with shifters, vampires, and so much more.

I've been waiting for this book, and it certainly did not disappoint. It provided the perfect ending to Marlowe and Ezra's story.

The bonkers plot continues and continues and continues so that the ending gets rushed. When will authors learn?

The story really picks up in this book. I liked the balance between the storyline and the spice scenes much better in this book.

The FMC went away with one MMC outside of pack lands with no other pack members after being attacked by vampires and knowing that some fae king was after her.
Absolutely ridiculous.

Such a good sequel to such a fun series. Camden and Archer, I love you!

This one only really picked up towards the end. I found the whole 'suddenly kidnapped by fairies' plot rather unbelievable.

I absolutely love this duet. It was so fun! The characters are amazing, and the storyline is so solid. I'm surprised more people haven't read this book.
