Daniel knew going to look for shifters with his best friend Anthony wasn’t a good idea, but he never expected it to end like it did. Now he has a new job with Kameron Rhett, the Gillham pack alpha, and he loves it. He enjoys being around shifters, and even more being away from his house and his alcoholic father.
Bran Morris’ first meeting as the head of the council enforcers takes him to Gillham. Kameron needs to make a decision about coming out to the town, and Bran is supposed to help with it. He never expected to meet his mate, not after losing his wife and child thirty-six years before.
Daniel and Bran hit it off right away, but when Daniel’s father becomes a problem, Daniel doesn’t know what to do. Should he live his life and be with his mate, or should he stick with his father to be sure the man doesn’t hurt himself? What would happen to his relationship with Bran if he chooses his father?
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.
Once again an okay shifter, finding a mate, romance, between Bran a bear shifter, and Daniel a human. This story was a fast paced romance without real emotions to back Daniels and Bran romance. So yeah, an undeveloped story, full of holes.
This is a spin-off of another series which I had not read and it just kind makes reference to how Daniel and his friend Anthony came upon the shifters and now are hanging out with them. Daniel's a smart-mouth who doesn't get along with anyone it seems except Anthony but suddenly bear Bran shows up and Daniel knows what mates are and is in favour except he's got an abusive alcoholic dad he feels responsible for. Daniel did not come across as 32. More like 19 or so. I think I liked Rabbit the best. A quick airplane read but it's one of those stories where things carry on from book to book.
Am I crazy, or are these books becoming steadily worse? It's Staphani Hecht and Charlie Richards all over again! We have a generic male shifter, a quirky but lovable human who's a motormouth and instant attraction/lust/love setup. You could say it is pleasent read and I'm being picky, but lately I've read too much of this kind of stories. I always adjust my expectations before reading, but still... Come on!
A great story, Daniel is the guy everyone knew in high school.The relationship is a thing that will make you smile and cry. The very best kind! A great story of love and life! Plus that special something that evolves in to a perfect mate.
