Shiftless No More

My Wolf Heart #2

Unexpected mates must find a way to build a life together . . . if that's possible for such a damaged wolf shifter and a lonely curmudgeon.

This is not the life Derek wanted, not the life he hoped for, but he's got to make sense of it and find a way to help his partner heal — and shift again — if either one is going to make it.

Paranormal werewolf MM romance. Continuation and conclusion of the story. The two werewolves learn more about each others' pasts, and learn to live with each other. Derek checks in with his pregnant werewolf friend and her squirrel shifter mate. Sergei contacts his parents in Russia.
I was very uncomfortable when the two wolves had a bitter argument. They managed to work out their differences, but it brought up painful memories for me.
Typo: "I laid down" should be "I lay down."

Wow, Derek is horrible

Once it’s revealed why his mate is the way he is and/or always has been, it makes me hate Derek’s attitude and treatment of him worse. Derek even acknowledges repeatedly that he’s being awful but he never changes. By the end I no longer liked him and no longer wanted him to be with ANYBODY, let alone Sergei. Also, the whole squirrel mate thing is weird.

Somehow I thought that this story was going to be longer than two parts. I felt like it could have been developed into a really great single longer book instead of an okay, short two-parter. It was interesting to meet Sergei as a human and get some insight into his former actions. There was so really rich material there that was just glossed over. This is not to say that the story as a whole wasn't enjoyable, just that it had the potential to be much more. For those (like me) who were a little weirded out by all the wolf sex in the first one, the sex here is human and just touched on lightly (no real sex scenes per se).

This one was kinda weird but I liked it better then the first one. I am kinda hoping there will be another one to continue the story. It was definitely a different shifter story then any other I have read. It was kinda intense but in a good way.

Read in a single sitting, these two make a cute little sort read. I especially like the comments on squirrels.

I Hope that was not all... To many questions open to build on a good plot.
