Description:
Robyn Maxwell doesn’t care that her brother has to cancel out on their backcountry ski trip. She can do it alone. The fact she’s deaf doesn’t make her survival skills any weaker. The chance to get away from it all and relax in the Yukon wilderness is just what she’s been craving. Meeting wilderness guide Keil at the cabin starts cravings of another kind. Keil’s one hot hunk of ripped, tasty male. Now she has to deal with raging hormones as well as strange questions about wolves and mates and challenges to the death. Keil was trying for a nice reflective retreat before challenging for the Alpha position of his Alaskan pack. He wasn’t planning on meeting the woman destined to be his mate, or finding out she’s not aware she has the genes of a wolf. Between dealing with his accident-prone younger brother, a deaf mate with an attitude and an impending duel to the death, his week–and his bed–is suddenly full. Far from the relaxing getaway any of them had in mind….
KcLu’s Thoughts:
This is my first shifter book, beside the Twilight series, and I have to say I enjoyed it very much!! I was already a huge Vivian Arend fan, so it wasn’t too hard to convince me to try this book. She has made me a fan of a new, to me, genre. This is a really great quick read.
Robyn Maxwell has a big ski trip planned, but at the last minute her brother, Tad, cancels on her. She decides that she is going with or without him. She is a strong independent woman, and her survival skills are not weakened in the least bit by the fact that she is deaf. Her biggest worry is that she will eat all 6450 calories of the cheesecake she had gotten for her and Tad to enjoy together. The chance to get out of the city and relax in the Yukon wilderness is one thing she can’t pass up.
Keil and his brother TJ had a nice relaxing weekend planned, before Keil is scheduled to challenge for the Alpha position in his Alaskan Pack. With a fight to the death hanging over his head and watching out for his accident prone brother, the last thing he expected was to find his mate out in the wilderness. OR to have to explain to her that she is a wolf in the first place. Language barriers aside these two have some smoking hot chemistry and sex!! HOLY SMOKES!!
I loved this book. It was one of those where it makes you wish you would meet this smoking hot man, with abs for days, and have him tell you that you are his mate. Sign me up for some of that!! This book has some great funny banter between everyone. I really loved the sibling like interactions between Robyn and TJ, and then once the wolf telepathy starts between Robyn and Keil that amps up the hotness level for me. This is really a great book! I highly recommend y’all checking this one out!!

Sorry I was signed on under the wrong blog. Let’s try this again. lol
I enjoyed this book as well. I thought it was a nice change to have the main female character be deaf and how it works out for the mated pair. :o) BTW I have a soft spot for Shifter books so feel free to check out my goodreads page!

I loved this book too KcLu!
It’ already on my reader and I will be reading this book next. Great review. Sounds like a good story.
I love shifter books and haven’t read any of Vivian’s books. This sounds intriguing with the heroine being deaf.
Thanks for sharing your review!
Hoe y’all enjoy it! I recommend the whole series!! It just gets better with each book.
