Midnight Wolf (Shifters Unbound #11) by Jennifer Ashley

ABOUT Midnight Wolf:

Angus Murray, bouncer for a New Orleans Shifter bar, is sent to round up an elusive, Collar-less Shifter woman, Tamsin Calloway, who is causing trouble for Shifter Bureau, and possesses information they want. If Angus refuses, he risks losing his cub. He finds Tamsin but she's slippery and not about to be rounded up quietly.

In fact, quiet is nothing Tamsin will ever be. She leads Angus on a wild chase, but he's determined to bring her in to save his son.

Can Tamsin convince Angus she's worth helping before she's locked away by Shifter Bureau, Collared, or perhaps killed?


REVIEW:

I have only read one short story in this series previous to this book, so it is possible to read as a stand-alone and enjoy it.  (However, I do tend to prefer to read an entire series from the beginning as the backstory usually makes it a more enriching read.)

This was a fairly quick read for me.  I managed to read it at work between calls (I work in a call center for a bank) in one week.  The characters, world and story are well-developed. 

Tamsin and Angus are both complex characters with and entwined history which cause a lot of tension for them.  Angus's cub is highly likable pup with a talent for sarcasm.  With both the Shifter Bureau and the shifters after them the cards are stacked against Tamsin and Angus, which helps you end up rooting for them despite their initial circumstances.

I really liked the story, and hope to find time to read the rest of the series in the near future.

*I received an e-ARC of this book from First To Read (Penguin) in order to create this review.*
