SYNOPSIS:
For three years humans forced the pureblooded wolf shifter to fight his own kind…
After escaping his human captors, Wolfrik returns to Wolf Hollow covered in scars and hostility. He wants nothing to do with pack politics and refuses to play nice.
An injury isolated the she-wolf and left her vulnerable…
Ever since Kallie’s foot was permanently maimed in a vulhena attack, she’s been relocated to the den where Palmer—the pack’s elder and council member—is after her to become his third mate.
A heated encounter with Wolfrik gives Kallie an idea. If she can convince the wild wolf to be her bedmate, Palmer will finally leave her alone.
But when an unexpected bond forms between the pair, Kallie may have bitten off more than she can chew. Is the aggressive pureblood too damaged to settle down with a mate?
Redemption may come too late.
Forced to face his inner demons, or lose the woman he loves, Wolfrik must confront the past he’s tried so hard to forget. But the past is about to catch up to him, and old enemies could doom the entire hollow…
REVIEW
From the first book in this series Wolfrik's story has intrigued me the most. He was such a dark character and with all he's been through. I wasn't sure if he would ever be able to integrate himself back in Wolf Hollow.
In Born Wild we find out all of the brutality Wolfrik suffered while he was imprisoned by the humans. Being forced into the fighting pits for entertainment. When he wasn't being forced to fight he was then forced to procreate on the full moon. With female shifters that have been imprisoned for breeding purposes. We also find out how it came about that Wolfrik escaped, but i'm keeping that little tid bit to myself you'll just have to read!!
When Wolfrik returned to Wolf Hollow he was scarred mentally & physically. He kept his distance from the rest of the pack. Which was also welcomed by some of the pack members as they just didn't know how volatile Wolfrik was. Wolfrik is also coming to terms with the fact that the only other pureblood wolf. He was always told by the elders he would be mated too, has moved on and found herself a new mate. And not just any mate Sasha is now mated to a half wizard.
Kallie who we met in the previous book really came into her own as a great character. I'll admit in the previous book i felt a little meh about her. Pinning after Raider who mated another and becoming seriously injured Kallie is made to feel less. She's taken off patrol duty and is kept around camp to help with the children and food. She's attracted the unwanted attention of and older wolf who is looking to make her his third mated partner!!
This is the last thing Kallie wants and she sets out to attract a strong male who will hopefully stop the unwanted attention till she can prove to the pack that she capable of being a valued member again. The only problem is she knows the others all look down on her because of her injury. That is except Wolfik he doesn't, but then again he doesn't really look at anyone. Until Kallie makes him take notice of her!!
"Think you can tame the wild beast, do you?
I wouldn't want to, I love the beast."
I loved Wolfrik and Kallie together their chemistry was feisty and playful. They only saw each other, and not the flaws others saw in them.
Like with the previous two books there is so much going on around them. But Nikki Jefford writes these books so flawlessly that even with the secondary stories going on it flows beautifully. Her stories leave you so intrigued as to what is coming next. From this Paranormal/Dystopian series
