This delightful addition to the Salvation Pack Series by N.J. Walters left me with a giant smile and a bounty of euphoric feels. "Wolf of Her Own" is a heartening story of second chances for two characters who'd assumed the time for love and happiness had passed. As a longtime fan of this series, I enjoyed the story of the Alpha's mother (Elise LaForge) and Rina's brother (Mikhail Matheson) finding each other. Most of the book depicts Elise's daunting struggle to overcome an abusive past and to trust her heart and body to the ever patient Mikhail.

I found Elise's reticence to become his mate both tedious and frustrating by the last third of the novel, at which point Waters added a thrilling subplot with a treacherous villain. Once the subplot resolves, Elise embraces her own sensual nature in Mikhail's safe, loving, and accepting arms, thus providing a satisfying conclusion to her exasperating journey of self-discovery and concupiscence.

The publisher provided me with a free copy via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review, but I enjoyed it enough to buy it at Amazon. Recommended for followers of the Salvation Pack, and anyone who loves hot shifters, second chances, and happy endings.

SEXUAL CONTENT: This story is only suitable for people 18 and older. Twelve percent of the book explicitly describes M/F sexual activity within the context of a monogamous relationship. These scenes are both passionate and tasteful. See description of violent sexual content below.
VIOLENCE: One scene portrays an attempted rape and bloody retribution. The back-story alludes to non-consensual rough sex in the heroine's history.
PROFANITY: 107 instances of various obscene words occur in the story, including 86 lewd anatomical references, which blend with the storyline, such that none of the characters are crude or vulgar.
ENDING: Ends with a satisfying HEA with a heartwarming epilogue and no cliffhanger.

This book is the fourth in the compelling dragon shifter romance series, "Blood of the Drakons." While not the best in the series, it adds new and exciting possibilities to future books. Nic and Constance are both believable and likable, but frustratingly stubborn at times. Constance is a capable, independent and strong-willed heroine. Nic is handsome, protective, powerful and wounded. Unfortunately, Ms. Walters' characterization of Nic lacks the distinction and depth exhibited in her previous works. The villain, a carryover from the previous books, is deliciously evil. Overall, it is a rousing plot with high stakes, hot sex, and true love, culminating in a surprise twist.

SEXUAL CONTENT: Mostly vanilla M/F, relationship-based sex. About 12% of book is devoted to the explicit description of sexual activity, including four complete sex scenes. Nothing crude and no rape or abuse scenes.
VIOLENCE: The description of violent action described lacks excessive gory details, even when death is involved. There is no rape or torture.
PROFANITY: About 72 instances of profanity occur in the story. However, it blends within the storyline, such that none of the characters seem crude.
ENDING: Satisfying HEA without a cliffhanger, while leaving room for more books in the series.

The author/publisher provided this complimentary advanced reader copy in exchange for an honest review via NetGalley.

I couldn't feel it.

Where was the romantic tension, the build up? All I saw was sex.

This failed on so many levels. The plot was predictable . Neither protagonist had a personality beyond I'm a badass and both the antagonists seemed ridiculous.

I hate giving bad reviews but this just didn't do it for me.
