Blurb:

Karis Begay is the only surviving heir to the Begay wolves of the Alaskan Pack. Someday she will take her place as Pack Mother which is a lifelong burden she has always carried with pride. It kept her isolated from others and hesitant to let anyone close to her. As she enters her freshman year at Archibald Reynolds College, no one knows who she is or who she is destined to become. It’s a chance at a fresh start, and just maybe... the beginning of something new.

Damon Rossi has been on his own, torn between two packs, most of his life. His true family was found in his brothers of Delta Omega Gamma. Sadness and depression loom over him as he faces his senior year not ready to move on to the next chapter in his life. That is, until he catches the scent of his one true mate. That scent drives his wolf wild as Damon struggles to dominate the previously docile creature as it surges with newfound powers he doesn’t understand.

Damon will do anything to be with Karis, but how will he respond when she tells him her secret—mating her seals his fate as Alpha.

When Karis’s life is threatened, Damon’s powers peak. Can he control them? Or will his wolf be too powerful? Will he find peace with his spirit animal in time to save Karis or face the regret of lost love?

My Review:

This one was a bit cheesy and fluffy.  It didn’t have a lot of depth but it made up for it with the background and world building.  The romance was pretty instant and didn’t have a whole lot of growing pains that I expected a new and intense mating romance to have.

We didn’t really see a whole lot of life of campus life unless you count the parties.  I thought that her first romance before she got with Damon was broken off with grace so that was nice. The ending was a bit overdone, as I felt the big bad was really just fluff to close out the romance.  It wasn’t necessariy and didn’t have any foreshadowing so when he came up as the BB I was quite surprised.  I won’t be reading more in this series.
