Description
Kensey Deaton comes from an elite werewolf lineage, but just because her family is royalty, doesn't mean she'll fall in line like some perfect little princess. She has plans and they don't include an arranged marriage!
Slade McAlister has his own family drama. His Alpha father happens to be the most reviled wolf on the eastern seaboard, and it's a stigma he can't escape. So when his neighbor Kensey--the girl of his dreams and his nightmares--proposes a solution to solve *both* of their problems, he sees an opportunity he can’t ignore.
Kensey and Slade aren't only from opposite sides of the tracks, they're from opposite sides of the war. But if they can sell their 'relationship', they might just make it out of this with their freedom.
You know, as long as all that fake PDA doesn't turn into more...

While the archaic patriarchal themes necessary to facilitate the plot made me grind my teeth every now and then, the endearing characters and adorable werewolf romance had me charmed.
I like my shifter romance to follow the mythical rules and this one reminded me more of a religious family wanting to marry off there daughter. This is probably the first shifter novel that doesn't follow the rules that I didn't hate. The story was engaging and entertaining. The wolf reminded me of a set of outback hillbillies and I liked this quality.
Kensey is the alpha daughter. Her father is the head of a region of wolf packs. It is expected Kensey will find a mate soon. Unfortunately for her, the options of suitors are anything but appealing. She needs to come up with a plan which will get her father off her back.
Slade's family are dysfunctional and so is his pack. His father is an unpleasant fellow and a bully. Slade dreams of escape his personal nightmare but it isn't that simple. He has a reputation for being a stereotypical bad boy and a bit of his loner. The other packs see him as undesirable.
Slade and Kensey used to be friends. Now they seem to be on different pages. She's the princess and he's a rebel. Kensey sees Slade interacting with his father and an idea is formed. Operation Big Bad Wolf may just save them both. Que fake relationship and some dug up all feelings.
This book had some funny parts and interesting ideas. It took me a little while to get into this book but I enjoyed the story. I just felt the beginning needed something more.
This was an enjoyable read. 4 stars out of 5.
*I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
