Review: Twice Bitten by Dylan Reece
SYNOPSIS:
Sometimes even fate needs a second chance…
Was I too brave? Or just stupid? Tired, hungry, and poor, I challenged my pack leader and now I’m exiled from the city… and from my fated mate. Peter’s my dream omega—sweet, smart, and gorgeous—the type of man I’d want to have pups with. But he’s a human who doesn’t know the secret of wolf shifters… And he’ll never forgive me for standing him up.
Destiny leads me to discover a new home in the unusual town of Darlington where I join a pack of daring misfits and exiles who rally behind each other—the kind of pack I’d only ever imagined. But I can’t delve into a new life without my fated mate. My wolf and I will fight like hell to win Peter back, encourage him to take my claiming bite, and build a family together in Darlington… But only if he’ll give me a second chance.
REVIEW:
This story was okay, it wasn’t great but it was interesting enough to have me picking up the next book. It was brief introduction into the world of the Darlington Pack. In terms of the romance, I have mixed feelings on Jonathan and Peter. On one hand, I liked their initial meeting and the instantaneous attraction and chemistry between them. But Jonathan stands Peter up for things outside of his control…and then it took Jonathan SEVEN YEARS to crawl back and beg Peter to love him again.
And this delay is where my interests fizzled. While Peter takes him back and they eventually work everything out, I found the gap in time to be too long, fated mates but able to sludge through seven years without each other, ridiculous. After I got over my annoyance, I liked the Darlington Pack. This rag-tag team of men were so endearing and welcoming. I could see so many spin-off stories and I liked the undercurrent of drama with the pack territories. Mostly though I am just picking up the next book because Peter’s best friend, Shayne, was captivating and I want to know his story.
