Not all things that look too good to be true are wrong.
Dallas is back in Gillham. He left the town and the pack after he was rescued from the lab, but he hasn’t been able to go back to fully living his life, and he hopes changing will help. He’s eager to work for Kameron and to be the pack’s doctor, even with the new problems the pack has.
Hamilton is Morin Glass’ best friend, and he wants answers. He’s seen the news about the man who became an animal, and he knows Morin and his boyfriend have to somehow be involved. He travels to Whitedell to get an explanation, and once there, he finds more than he was expecting.
Hamilton doesn’t seem to have problems accepting shifters, and Dallas is glad even if hesitant, but it doesn’t mean their life is easy. Hamilton’s life is in New York and he has to make a decision. Being with a shifter could be dangerous for him. Humans might know about them now, but it doesn’t mean they accept them. What does the future hold for Dallas and Hamilton, and for the pack?
Catherine is the creator of several series, most of them paranormal, including the Whitedell Pride Series and the Gillham Pack Series. While she graduated in translation, she decided to go the writer’s way because it was more fun to create her own stories and characters. She’s been living in Italy for more than twenty years, but she’s a daughter of the North—Belgium to be precise—and she misses it so much that she’s already planning to move back. She loves pizza—probably too much —her pets, and of course, books. She sneaks some reading time in her schedule every time she has five minutes free from writing, demands from her various pets and son, and lastly, housework.
Dallas was not my favorite shifter in this series, but I really, really liked Hamilton. I wasn’t sure what Dallas was so reserved about and it kept bugging me. Hamilton was so easy and open and really did all the “giving” in this relationship.
However, I also don’t feel like I understood much of either MC’s true selves or motivations. It felt like we just got the barest of introductions to these guys and we weren’t really shown much of who they are or what makes them tick.
I was also really confused by why they waited so long to mate. It seemed like nothing was stopping them and the excuses they used felt like a contrived plot device and nothing “real”.
I think the story about people now knowing needs to be rapidly exploited or explained away because having it sit there like a ticking time bomb doesn’t make any sense. I’d think there’d be some huge repercussions from the “news” leaking out about shifters and so far there’s been nothing. That doesn’t seem right.
This was a bit disappointing, as far as the series goes, and not nearly as good as some of the previous books.
1 star deducted for the plot change and continuity error. Nuallan was a nurse going to work with Dallas in Iggy, not the assassin who tried to kill Kam.
