Wolf Underground #2
Wolf Awakened
When I went undercover at the Royal Fang Casino to bring down the Sullivan family Kingpin, the last thing I expected was to run into the wolf who’d claimed my soul, then rejected me.
But fate has a funny way of bringing soul mates together sometimes and the doctor who saved me from being sold to the highest bidder turned out to be the son of the Kingpin I was trying to take down.
Turns out he rejected me to keep me safe, away from the darkness of the wolf underground.
Which would have worked, if I hadn’t been dead set on reigning justice with a touch of revenge down on the people who scarred me for life.
My plan would have worked, too… except I discovered a deadly secret while undercover.
The Sullivans aren’t the bad guys I thought them to be. If they go down, the real bad guys will be unleashed to reign hell down on the wolf underground.
It took me months to build a case against them and moments to realize how wrong I was about them. But the Wolf Special Services still see the Sullivans as the big bad and will stop at nothing to bring them, and me, down.
The precarious balance the Sullivans have been maintaining for years has just come crashing down.
We won’t let the law stand in the way of our mission. Too many lives are on the line. Either we win against the Antonovs or we all end up dead—either way, we’re willing to pay the price for justice.
Fans of Jaymin Eve, Leia Stone, and Tate James will tear into this rejected mates shifter romance.

Even better than the first book!
Wow! This was so awesome! Even if it did end with a major cliffhanger. But the next one comes out in a few months, thankfully.
This mind blowing book was even better than the first, and that’s saying a lot! Between the spicy scenes and swoon-worthy romance with Mercy and yummy Rave, the close knit family element, and all the crazy things going on, culminating to a wild and crazy action packed ending, this book doesn’t have a dull moment! It’s so engrossing that it’s easy to get lost in it and completely unaware of what’s going on around you! I will be on the tips of my toes in anticipation of the next book!
I highly recommend this to anyone who loves werewolves, romantic and spicy moments, and plenty of wild and crazy things going on.

In the second book, the Sullivan family is making a lot of plans. They will announce the mating between Rhave and Mercy. All the while plotting against the evil that is staining the wolf underground. They have something that belongs solely to the Sullivan’s and they want it back, even if it costs them their lives in the process. One huge problem is the person they need to contact to make their way in. Mercy will have to use old contacts to try and get a meeting with the person…but will it work? The mate bond between Mercy and Rhave continues to grow stronger. Mercy will be attacked~ They are banking on the plans they make to help keep them from being detected to gather their prize…will they be able to do it? Will they be caught? What will be the ramifications either way? This is another high-level heat action-packed book in JJ King’s newest book that will hold you spellbound~

Wolf Awakened: A rejected mate mafia romance is the second book in this series, and boy is it a fantastic story! Rave is not only swoon-worthy, but he is also the type who makes things clench. It is great that he and Mercy have come together, and she comes to understand his rejection. I could not put this book down with a fast-moving storyline and characters that pull you right into the story. The book ends with a phenomenal cliffhanger, which is why I look forward to the next book in the series, Wolf Destroyed.

Had to DNF at 33%. Book is riddled with errors an editor should have caught, including character’s name changing on the same page. Wrong word choice (ie word doesn’t mean what the sentence implies it should mean). The final nail was the very poorly done BDSM.
The fact the FMC loses most of her personality and initiative as soon as the bond is cemented was already a hurdle.

The Sullivans & Mercy will do anything too get Feyre back. The Antonovs will do anything too destroy the Sullivans. It’s an all out war. This book was good and the ending, I need the next book asap. I can’t wait too get more of Rave & Mercy.

XXX! Adult content, reader discretion advised. Mercy's cover is blown and she has officially left WSS. Rave has claimed her as a mate and there is no returning for anyone.

Mercys story continues in this book. With Rave excepting the mate bond and learning they are not the bad guys they are looking for a way to turn the tides. They need to get Raves sister back to get the upper hand. Need more.
