I honestly love this book so much. It's not just the grovel, it's the whole world and its lore these characters are inhabiting. It only gets better with each reread as I pick up in different threads. 

Now, Killian Kelly is a brute, but there is so much context to his actions and in the grand scheme of these books his rejection has a lot more context than some of the others. Una is amazing and so very obviously in charge. Her dignity throughout is fantastic and I love them both so much.

I enjoyed this book more on a second read. Some of the omniverse tropes are a bit cringy, but I adore a hero who gets possessive and grovels for his wallflower. 

This series does a great job with the concept of the wolves being a distinct alternate personality.

It's cool that Killian is trying to be less sexist but it would be cooler if he didn't need a woman he wants to have sex with to make him realize it's a problem. Other than that very meh on the plot, the characters in general, and especially their relationship with each other.

ENG
The story was not the worst but I just was not a fan how messy it got. I thought of dnfing early in the story but I was intrigued enough to continue. I mean there is nothing to regret because it had definitely cute moments and even had kind of fun. On the other hand, it is one of those books that I would call single-use read where you read it and never look back.

this wasn’t what i was expecting but i loved it! i really enjoyed the writing style and the characters i just wish there was more tension and development. i think i’d like it more with a reread and managed expectations.

I read the fourth book in this series first as it was part of a giveaway. I loved that this first one focused on Una and Killian as I had already liked her character. Una is a great MC - strong, smart, brave. Her and Killian’s love story was unexpectedly sweet. I liked this one much better than the fourth one, and it has me rethinking some of the things that I didn’t love about the fourth in light of events and characterizations in this one.
