This is definitely a touch her and die kindof book.
It was provided to me as an ARC, and it was really good.
Now, i would totally recommend to read this series. You could totally ready it as a standalone, but to have a better understanding and for reader's pleasure, you should ready the other 2 books first.

This is an interracial affair. Two alphas, one human, another one supernatural.
Rafe is the alpha of his pack, he fought for his rules but seem to have them tear down. His brother and friend, both got mates but he is reluctant to have one. He sees them as weaknesses.
Adele is a strong independent woman, who was targeted and wronged by men in her life, so she is adamant to work towards opening her chocolatier again and rebuild her empire. But she needs a job, and it looks like the only place in town to work, is near Rafe who she seems to hate.

Both characters are pretty strong, and honestly that was refreshing to read about. The heroine makes mistakes and puts herself in danger, as they all usually do **eye roll** but in this case, i can totally fault Rafe for withhelding important information.
They are both head strong and really need control, but when they come together, its pretty cool to see. Rafe is protective, and Adele is too. She will fight anyone to protect who she loves.

Now their love was fast paced, their chemistry was there. And the drama continued on, which i can say im pretty excited to read.

Tropes: Werewolf, alpha characters. Grumpy/Sunshine. Alpha protector. Heroine in danger (was she really though)

Romance: 3/5
Spicy: 3/5!!!
