Wolf God

High intensity, high heat, high emotions. These two are explosive. Couldn’t put this book down. You won’t regret reading this amazing book.

Thanks NetGalley for the digital copy to read and give an honest opinion about the story!

How nice it was to find this story. But how ugly to have to wait to have to read the second book, because it clearly ends up very handy.

This story in a magical world, which was not very well developed and that is why I lowered a star, leads us to meet two strong, independent characters who are constantly on the line of what is right or wrong to do.

On the one hand Sam, who doesn't know if he's really doing the right thing. If she is betraying her pack, if she is betraying her ideals and values, but there is something that attracts her and makes her trust that monster that she promised to destroy.

On the other, Cadean, a being that became a monster due to the war that plagues his land. He is on the fine line of good and evil, if what he does is a way to counteract the evil that is done to him or if he destroys and continues this endless cycle.

That's something I loved about this book, that the characters are not GOOD or BAD. They are there, in a strange gray.

Mainly Sam constantly considers what he does, what he feels and his ideals.

I liked having the point of view of both, although Sam predominates, and I liked that too!

I look forward to reading the second 😍

Quick Summary: OUTSTANDING!

My Review: Wolf God by Veronica Douglas was non-stop action and intrigue from beginning to end. This story had great elements. The plot had an air of fantasy, mythology, and dark realism mixed together. The main characters each had texture and depth. The emotional arc was brilliantly executed. I really loved being able to see the dual perspectives of the leads. They were so well written that I could not help but feel invested in each of them. I completely understood their unique struggles.

About the Characters:

Samantha and Cadean's story...WOW! (If I say anything right now, it would be too much. I'm still trying to recover from what happened. Much respect, Ms. Douglas. You wrote that and mic dropped, as far as I am concerned. Bravo!)

Wulfric, Mel, and Kass were a force. I loved their sense of loyalty and commitment to the Wolf God. They represented Cadean's inner circle. I want to better understand how they all came to be a band set to defend the Wolf God's kingdom.

Rune was a character that I hope to see again. There is definitely more to him than meets the eye. I can see him doing something even more remarkable later. (He made me think of Dobby, who was such a beloved character in the Potter series.)

Auren comes across like a villain. He is not trustworthy. He is written quite well. I can see things taking shape through his actions.

The Queen and the Fae were perplexing. So tricky. Their truth is a lie. Right?

Selene and her grandmother were supporting characters who helped to move the story along. Although they were lesser characters, they were instrumental in helping to better understand what was going on with the people who were being protected in Cadean's realm. Selene was interesting in that she allowed us to see the king's humanity. She was loyal to her king, but she also had a new sense of loyalty with her savior, Samantha, after being saved twice. (I'm thinking she'll show up again, for some reason.) The grandmother was sassy and wise. I enjoyed her defiant streak. (I think she knew more than what she was letting on during the celebration.) I do hope she makes an appearance in the other books, as well.

The Others: Even though this was story one, there were other characters who were mentioned. I am anxious to see how they will be used in the series. The wolves, Samantha's mother, Samantha's father, her best friend and her partner, the voices - what is the what with them?

My Final Say: I could not stop reading this book. It was utterly enthralling. There is really so much that I want to say about this book, but I don't want to ruin it for other readers. I'll simply sum things up by saying that this is a MUST READ. I'm going all in with this series. I must find out what comes next. Is there a fan club?!?! 🤓

Thank you to the author, to the publisher, and to NetGalley, who provided a digital ARC of this title in exchange for an honest review. I am most appreciative that I was granted an opportunity to read this incredible work. All of the words I have shared are my own and have not been influenced by the aforementioned in any way.

* A Goodreads review has been posted.

Quick start. Non stop action. POV was good as well but I leaned more to finding the chapters where C was narrating they went quicker and I enjoyed them. S was a good character too and found myself really getting into her POV too. Sexual tension was right where it needed to be and didnt lose the plot. This is my first time reading this author, but I am already searching out other books. Her characters have great dynamics and the flow in which she can have them interact is great as well.

"Some monsters just need to be tamed."

I read it in two days, which is a near miracle for me! After finishing I saw that there is a preceding series about the FMC , but I don't feel like I missed anything by not reading it first. This was a wild ride all by itself!

The tension between the feisty shifter FMC and the brooding Dark God was electric. The tension is as important as the spice for me!

Samantha is a werewolf, a fierce protector of friends and family. When she is taken by the Dark Wolf God, she struggles between loathing and desire for the beautiful god who weeks earlier nearly ended her life. The Dark God needs Samantha to lift the curse that afflicts his realm, and him, but didn't account for how distracting she could become.

My favourite tropes made an appearance - enemies to lovers, touch her you die, slow burn, found family, magic, fated mates, a brother thrown into the mix - though I'm not too keen on TOO possessive.

I really enjoyed the characters, the magic and world building, and I'm looking forward to reading the sequel.

Will definitely be reading more from these authors.

Reviewing after being accepted to read on #NetGalley . Thank you!

I love this book

I love a morally grey character and this book delivered it. Very well written,couldn't put it down,an exciting fun read,I love paranormal romances for books like this

I don’t even have words to describe how much I enjoyed this book! This book was written so well and always kept me excited! I stayed up till 1am trying to finish this book because it was that interesting! I’m obsessed with tension between Sam and Cade and I love how both of mcs are both strong and fierce! I truly enjoyed getting to read how Cadean changed throughout the story! I’m so excited for the next book!!

Loved this book! It had an interesting new take on the shifter genre with the characters and storyline. I liked that it mentioned a lot of supernatural species working together toward a common goal. The Wolf God is a shifter dream! Loved his character and watching him sort through his emotional turmoil was one of the best parts of this book. I'm excited to read the second book!

I can’t wait to find out what happens next! At the beginning, I was a little confused and wanted more details as to why the werewolves were involved, why they had to trap the Wolf God and why the Moon goddess was involved. That being said, I really enjoyed the world that was built and the characters that were involved. The Wolf God’s inner circle was fiercely loyal and I would have liked a little backstory, especially from his sorcerer. I loved Caedan and Samantha. Caedan has done horrible things during a war that has lasted hundreds of years and didn’t know if he could be redeemed even though he now wants to try. Samantha is fierce, to a fault sometimes, in her actions and her feelings. Because of that she doesn’t consider all the implications of her actions. I think it will haunt her later. Overall, I really enjoyed this book and will definitely read the next installment.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the ARC I received in return for my honest opinion.
