Not as good as the first bc there were a few plot holes. A couple of characters were introduced in book 1 (Lynn and Shannon) but were not mentioned at all until towards the end of the book. Like they completely forgot about these characters.
Also certain words or phrases (rabbit or hello rabbit) should be obvious to who a person is (their identity), but it doesn’t click with the FMC Amy, who has been very cunning thus far.
Now what started to annoy me was the fact Amy or the King would have to exert their dominance/aura and the wolves would cower, but then they still talk back? If a strong Alpha is commanding you and telling you to shut up and you cower bc you know they can kill you, then moments later you still think it’s ok to antagonize them as if you forgot you could die. The constant insubordination (bc of the hierarchy) especially towards the King was just off. Why create strong AF characters and not have the lower ranks truly fear them. It just didn’t make sense. Plus the King giving the council so many chances lessened his strength and authority. They were committing treason and yet he still wants to hear them out. That doesn’t sound like a very strong and all powerful King.
Lastly, the fact that the King and Amy haven’t brought up or almost did their wolves names towards each other is not creating the slow burn it was intending. It’s more of a lack of communication trope which I loathe.
All that being said, I will read book 3 when it comes out bc I need to know how it ends. The storyline is interesting and I can’t put the book down, but I feel like the book needed a few more edits/fine-tuning before being published.

Has potential
The story is good. I read the first book & had to have the second one ASAP. I plan on continuing to read these as they come out. However, there are some cons that knocked my rating down to 3 stars.
This story NEEDS a developmental editor. There are way too many times throughout book 1 & 2 that things are repeated, forgotten, or suddenly changed.
The plot is good. This book has the potential to be an amazing story if it were properly edited. I know this one was originally written on a pay-per-chapter site but that doesn't automatically make it a bad story.

silly sapphic nonsense
❌ First things first, all of the MF relationships in this book are utterly toxic and all of the men are painfully stupid, not a good look for an MF romance writer. The h depends to an extreme extent on her BFFs and her wolves, who are all female. There’s genuinely no room in her life or this story for any kind of MF romance. When they were first introduced, the h's new BFFs made the story richer. But slowly it becomes obvious that the girls are a proxy for the love relationship. All of the h's needs are taken care of by the women: emotional support, gentle touches, forehead and hand kisses. I actually expected a sexual relationship to develop when they all started sleeping in the same bed together, busting in on showers, and bathing the h when she was in heat. That’s fine if it's your thing, but give me a heads up, I don’t read FF.
Other utterly silly plot lines:
❌ The h goes to university, she decides to study computer science because it’s the closest she can get to hacking 😭 (which is a mission her father asked of her) and everybody keeps patting her on the back like she’s a genius for doing this most obvious and traditional field of study
❌ Every. single. scene. at school is a series of rank disputes and rank abuses. I.e. alpha, betas, and gammas taking advantage of every lower or unranked wolf they come across. The h makes so many ridiculous speeches... gurl practically walks around with a mic
❌ Then there’s the h's relationship with the King. Yes, the King of the land, who moonlights as a prof, but is just some 30yo, chronically confused, dickless wonder. He’s completely accessible to the h (I'm talking 24/7) and boy does she call him—basically every time her nose itches she calls him for a scratch. Just imagine hitting up the British monarchy for take-out or something
❌ This story and romance have never met. There’s one scene that indicates there’s some passion between the h and the King (a kiss not much else), then in every subsequent scene these people either have amnesia or there's a stunning lack of continuity, because no one can seem to recall any progress they've made before. This is a no burn not a slow burn. I’m guessing the nonsense is eventually going to be explained away by ill-intent magic, but for a romance it’s foolish and tedious. Especially when time jumps indicate it goes on for months, then later years. Years of miscommunication??? Wut?!
❌ Then there’s the utter foolishness of the h's alpha wolf (Nix) falling for a male wolf they randomly meet in the woods, it’s immediately clear to us that this 'mystery wolf' belongs to the King (and it would be clear to the h too with one conversation), but due to a series of interruptions and miscommunications, (the author going so far as to have the h say half of 'the mystery' wolf's name to the King before being 'interrupted'). Then h has the nerve to continue lamenting for the entire book that her wolf is in love with 'a mystery'. I haven't read anything this primary since Dr. Seuss.
❌ Oh, and let’s not forget the threat at end of this book: that the h will spend all of book 3 pretending to like/love the man who killed her in book 1, and that that fool's errand will prohibit all romantic relationships for the foreseeable future *sigh*
Seriously, with this shitshow of a book 2 the series went from 4 stars to 2

The amount of grammatical errors was off the charts. A couple chapters had his and her backwards constantly that I was actually getting confused thinking, OK is this a male or a female. After 20 you’s that should have been your,
I stopped counting. The than and then issues. Then other various oddities. The first book wasn’t like that. I purchased the electronic version and it’s very possible that it was really poorly transcribed. But someone should’ve confirmed it.
The book is still full of tension and drama. The same threads from the first book are still being drawn out in the second book with no answers, unfortunately.
Problem I had with the book:
Something that didn’t make sense for me: We learned that during the few months apart, neither Rowan or Amy received text, voice or emails from each other. And no investigation is done about it. They just drop it. But her emails for the application to his email seem to work. What’s that about?
In the whole year Amy never ran into Shannon on campus but the one time? How would that be possible?
We never got to learn what was in Cassie’s letter that was delivered by Rowan to Amy. We don’t get to hear about the last text from Rowan. And why doesn’t Amy tell her dad she knows where Aurora is hiding out - in his backyard?!?
In book one, the Shaman said, he probably had less than six months to live and train his four year-old little girl. So how are we staying at the university for 2 1/2 years and leaving that six-year-old by herself?

Empowered heroine + real plot progress, though dragged pacing and quick resolution keep the action back‑loaded.
Book 2 of Shifted Fate was where I happily discovered the series was available on Kindle. I bought the first two books right away to fully support the author, and was excited to see the third installment would be released within days. Honestly, having the e‑book option felt like such a relief compared to slogging through ads on the serialized app.
Story‑wise, I was glad to see real progress in the plot—something that doesn’t always happen clearly in serialized novels. The author continues to do a great job keeping the main female character independent, even when love interests catch her attention. She remains empowered and inspiring, which is one of the strongest aspects of the series.
That said, the pacing had its frustrations. The main development wasn’t revealed until closer to the end, which made the middle feel more dragged out than necessary. And once the heroine finally uncovered the problem, she solved it almost too quickly, leaving most of the action crammed into the back end of the book.
Even with those issues—and the ongoing grammar, spelling, and editing flaws—I still found this installment satisfying. The heroine’s strength and the story’s forward momentum make it worth continuing, especially now that the whole series will be accessible on Kindle.

Awesome Story, Alicia is a truly gifted writer.
I started reading Shifted Fate on the Good Novel app and I have been hooked ever since. I was truly heartbroken for Alicia when she informed her fan base about her personal struggles as well as all of the problems that occurred after Shifted Fate was stolen by multiple sources. As soon as she announced that she was going to release Shifted Fate as a multi book series on Kindle, I immediately preordered the series to give her my support. Keep writing Alicia and I promise to keep reading your books!!! Just an FYI…my username on GoodNovel is IceQueen not Coaster Junkie.

Book 3 is pre-ordered
I get bored with series but this one is keeping me engaged. I’m looking forward to Amy focusing on the hacking she needs to learn. I love that she is so clever (most of the time). A couple of obvious things seem to evade Amy and the MMC but I know they will figure things out. I love seeing bad guys and gals getting their comeuppance. That doesn’t happen in enough books for my taste.

This series of books is generally good, it is creating addiction and reader wants to read more. Characters are described nicely and it is clear who is protagonist and who is antagonist.
But, sometimes it is hard to follow events in the book.
What is creating confusion is fact that some parts of plot, of story lines, are not finished. Some dots are not crossed and the book finishes with reader not knowing what happened with main antagonists in the end.

Book two - Amy has control over her magic and is now trying to infiltrate the bad pack and learn their secrets to bring their crimes to light and bring them down. She meets the king, falls in love with him, but they have such miscommunication it’s aggravating. The dialogue is a bit silly at times, we learn more about Amy’s powers. She makes friends , who add to the storyline in a good way.

Hooked
A Rip roaring read, was hooked within the first page of book one. A series you can't put down and worth binging in a comfy chair and a hot cuppa... Characters, storyline and pace of book are fantastic. Roll on book 3 and 4.

Great read!
The story is good and well told. Some things are lagging like the romance or lack of is getting a little overdone, but otherwise it is a great story.

Rivers continues to keep the reader on the edge of their seat. I highly recommend this series. The characters develop and the plot thickens as we proceed to the final book.

The book is really good a few typos but the cliffhanger is why I gave it a 4 if there were 1/2 stars it would be 4 and a half
