Wild Things: Shifters Unbound

FINAL DECISION: Enjoyable with a less experienced Shifter male and a woman who has tried to find love in the wrong places. This novella expands readers knowledge of what is going on in the Shifter universe. Sweet and fun.

THE STORY: Mason McNaughton is a wolf shifter (youngest brother of Broderick from BAD WOLF) is tired of the feral feline living in his house driving him crazy and sometimes trying to kill him. He decides to help search for a cure which leads him to a psychic in New Orleans Jasmine Samuelson. Mason doesn't believe in psychics but Jasmine is known for finding people and Mason needs her help to find the elusive Guardian healers who might be able to turn the feral back from his madness. Jasmine finds Mason sexy but she has had bad luck with men including a shifter who broke her heart before.

OPINION: This romance is sweeter and less intense than others in the series as this short novella has a lot of plot to get in. That being said, I enjoyed seeing Mason who is somewhat younger and more inexperienced than the typical Shifter in this series fall in love. Mason is really sweet even as he says that Shifters are wild and dangerous. The connection between Jasmine and Mason is quick and there is little conflict between them except for Jasmine's wariness because of her past. I enjoyed this book especially because of the return glimpses of some of my favorite Shifters. This is not that deep of a book, but it is enjoyable and expands the Shifter universe.

WORTH MENTIONING: Lots of cameos from series favorites! There are lots of cubs arriving soon!

CONNECTED BOOKS: WILD THINGS is book number 7.75 in the Shifters Unbound series. It can be read as a standalone EXCEPT a reader has to understand a bit about the Shifters because it is not explained here.

STAR RATING: I give this book 4 stars.

Wild Things is an in between book in the Shifters Unbound world. This world has an intriguing world of shifters that has good world building and background. I suppose you could read this as a stand alone but I think some of the mythology would be harder to follow. Also all of the secondary characters have been introduced previously. However the main character Mason has only had a few small scenes and so we don't know him as well. He's not as strong as an Alpha character as her previous male leads and in fact is more of a Beta character. I really liked Mason and it was nice to see a different type of male character who was still strong. Jasmine is a new character who is psychic. Some of the stuff was a bit harder for me to believe a house that has a personality of its own and can attack someone).

Mason doesn't believe in Jasmine's abilities until she proves herself and of course they are fated mates. It's a good book just not as good as some of the previous books in this series. The couple is actually pretty sweet and this is a quick read. This book seems to be a transition between where the characters/story line in this series has been and where it looks to be heading.

I loved this book. As always Jennifer Ashley out did herself again. I have all of her new books on preorder and the minute they hit my inbox I start reading till the last page. Can not wait till her new book comes out!!! Would totally recommend this and all of her previous works in the Shifters Unbound Series. Would make an excellent tv series
