Wolf Girl
Author: Leia Stone
Trope: Slow Burn
Point of view: Single, First person
Relationship: MF
Type of series: Series
In a nutshell: When my parents were banished from Wolf City before I was born, I thought there was no way I would ever live in a pack again. Cuffed, with my shifter magic bound, I was forced to go to school with witches in order to keep my true nature from coming out.
Then I met him. Sawyer Hudson.
The Alpha's son was visiting Delphi Witches' College and spotted me. He took one look at me, and an hour later, I was being pulled out of school, taken into Wolf City and leaving my parents and everything I knew behind.
It's the Alpha's son's selection year, the year he must pick a mate, and every female aged 18-22 must be in attendance. I've landed myself in the middle of Werewolf Bachelor, and just when I think I've got a handle on things, Sawyer releases my cuffs, unbinds my magic, and sees what I really am. The problem is, I don't know what this creature is that I transform into. It's not an ordinary werewolf, that's for damn sure.
Content warning: Sexual assault
What I thought: Shifters meet The Bachelor in this story from Leia Stone, where we meet shifters Demi and Sawyer from opposite walks of life, and follow their relationship and how it naturally develops despite the premise of a ‘must choose your mate' construct. Now it sounds quite light, but this book despite being a super fun read also touches on some dark themes including surviving sexual trauma, trust and true love. All in all, this was a very entertaining, funny, easy read that I recommend.
