Back Cover Blurb:

Francine’s loved Mitchell, a wolf like herself, since she first set eyes on him back when they were just kids. However, Mitchell’s never seen her as more than another annoying sister. Determined to make him realize she’s all grown up, she enlists the aide of Alejandro, a gorgeous cat shifter. She never counted on wanting them both.

Alejandro knows Francine is special from the first moment he meets the fiery plump wolf, which is why he suggests she use him to make Mitchell jealous. A great plan, especially if it means getting to kiss those luscious lips. One taste though, and he’s addicted, but how does he make her see past the man she loves to realize she’s also meant to be his mate.

For a long time now Mitchell’s been running from Francine, certain she’s mistaken that their destiny’s lie together. However, the little girl he remembers is all grown up, and when he sees her in the arms of another, a need to claim her overrides all his common sense. But, he’s waited too long and fate has decided that he’s going to have to share. Can he bend enough to accept Francine and another man, or will his jealousy keep him freakn’?

My Review:

Langlais’ story is both sinfully hot and absolutely hilarious without ever being ridiculously over the top. The plot comes to life full of danger and suspense but also with romance and chemistry. The world is developed in such a manner that it’s easy to immerse yourself into while falling in love with the characters that Langlais develops.

The dynamic between Francine and Naomi was hilarious. I love how solid their friendship was. But it was definitely topped by the intricate yet difficult dynamic between Francine, Alejandro, and Mitchell. This ménage was interesting to read about, especially because of Mitchell. He’s unruly and impossible to reason with for reasons that even he can’t explain. All the while Francine & Alejandro are trying to make everything so much easier.

I love how Langlais can make me laugh while also making me fall in love with her fantastic characters. This is definitely a one of a kind novel.
