Blurb:
Devin Owen has come back
from the Dragon Wars a changed Werewolf. For one thing, he's lost his
wolf side as well as most of his desire to live. He spends most of his
life doped up to handle the pain from his injured leg.
Lena Knox knew the
moment she met Devin that he was her mate. But, she'd been a child at the
time and he hadn't noticed her at all. Now, all grown up she wants Devin to be
the wolf she’s waited for. Not that she has a lot of time for longing
with life crumbling around her.
A couple of heated
encounters draw them together but is it enough to overcome the war wounds they
both carry? Or will an outside enemy destroy them before they get the chance
to know?
Excerpt: “You’re
my mate, Devin. I’ve known it since the first time I was in your company when I
was seven years old.”
Devin gripped the side of the table he
stood next to like she’d struck him. “No.”
“No?” She hadn’t expected the pain of his
rejection. She’d known he might not believe her at first. Tears she refused to
shed clogged her throat. “It’s not ‘no.’ I’m your mate, such that I am.”
Lena knew she wasn’t an ideal Female
specimen. Her skin frequently broke out in horrible bouts of acne, although she
looked pretty clear at the moment, her chin jutted out too far, her hands were
not dainty, and when she shifted, her Wolf form frequently had trouble coming
to a stop at high speeds. More than once she’d collided into trees, bushes, and
other Wolves.
But she knew she was a nice person. She
could work hard, and she never asked anyone for anything but common decency.
She’d be a good mate to him, and he shouldn’t be rejecting her outright.
Unless he found her absolutely repulsive
to look at…
“You’ve made a mistake. Whatever you
thought you smelled when you were a child was the wild fantasy of a young girl.
You should be over it by now.”
She sighed. “Devin, I can still smell
it. I promise when you get to know me you’ll find out I’m not wildly fanciful.
I live in the real world.”
“I can’t smell it on you. Not at all.
I’m sorry, Lena. You seem like a nice kid, but if you can really smell mating
from me, then it’s one of those rare occasions where one Wolf feels something
the other doesn’t.”
Lena had heard about those situations.
It was every young Wolf’s deepest fear. Something went askew with the
chemistry. One Wolf felt mated and the other one didn’t. They could even mate
with someone else.
“I think you should go home and work on
getting over whatever this is because, at least for my part, it is not a
mating.”
Lena’s heart might explode from her
chest. She turned on her heel. What else was there to say, really? He’d said
no. He didn’t feel it. She’d waited fifteen years for him to come home, and it had
been for nothing.

Review:
I wasn't sure what to expect from this book but I really enjoyed it. In fact what I find all to common with short works is that it ended too soon. I wanted more.
I would have loved a little more background on the world they lived in. And I definitely would have loved more interaction between Lena and Devin.
That being said it was still a really good read and I look forward to possibly more books in this series.
Overall give this 4 out of 5.
