Had some good moments
This was hard to review. In some ways the plot and characters were very likeable. At times though those same characters lacked depth and appeared to be contradicting themselves. The lead was far too quick to accept a dire situation without more emotional upheaval demonstrated so we could relate/connect to her. We read what happened and how she felt.
Further into the book, it became clearer that the real problem was language based and that the novel needed some strong tightening. Conversations particularly needed point of view clarification, and there were many editing issues and general grammar misuse. This often put the plot off kilter, and left the characters looking a little undeveloped.
However it still had some good if blood thirsty moments and the relationship between the alphas managed to keep us reading. Some good moments.

I read this book when it was on Inkitt, and I immensely enjoyed it. Elle was likeable and understandable. She didn't take anybody's sh*it. She kniw how to fight and proves it many times throughout this book. The romance of this story is where this book shines from other adult werewolf novels. Most werewolf books tend to feature an overbearing male who doesn't take no for an answer and feels entitled to "their" female, but you can tell that the two leads mutually respect and admire each other for their strengths. There are no mates, they chose each other of their own free will.
It is pretty play-by-the-numbers in terms of plot, but the creativity with how Hicks portrays werewolves makes up for it and makes me always want to come back to this great story.

Engaging Story
I agree with reviewer BarbarinaS on the need for editing. I struggled to read the book that started out with action and kept my interest in the story. This book is challenging to read but the story and characters kept me reading. (Dear Brett, edit this story and you would have a winner.)

Bitten
Was a good story line. I did enjoy it but the blood shed was tough. I suggest only read it that doesn't bother them.
