Interesting story of fated mates and second chances. I liked that the characters had problems and it wasn't the usual perfectly matched as you sometimes get with these stories. I liked Luke and Lucy but definitely wanted to knock their heads together at times.

This book was absolutely amazing. I could not put it down and read it in one sitting. The characters are well developed and the main female character, Jasmine, was very relatable. The story hooks you within the first quarter of the book. If you like a great, twisty plot with lots of spicy-ness then this is the book for you.

I loved this book!! It's a fantastic werewolf story with a cast of strong characters and an intriguing storyline. The author does a wonderful job developing her story as well as the characters and pulled me in right from the start. She kept me glued to the pages reading Jasmine's story with all the action, steam and emotions throughout. It's a true mates/chosen mates dilemma between Jasmine and her new alpha, Blake and beta, Luke. She brings the heat along with the romance and had me turning the pages as fast as I could to see where she was taking the story. It's told in multiple POV's which really made the story that more intense. I kind of flip flopped my opinions with the male characters as the story moved on. It's well written, moves fluidly with descriptive scenes and is an awesome read. Loved and recommend this book. Hope to see more from this pack.

Wolfbane mainly tells the story of 4 young werewolf from Midnight Maple pack who struggled to fight the fate brought to them.

Honestly I enjoy the story. Such an easy read because the plot flows naturaly. And I love that the characters actually have flaws. It allows me as reader to see the character(s) building.

I usually don't really like multiple POV, but I find myself enjoying multiple POV in this book. This helps me understand to know the characters feeling and what they've been through. Another interesting part in this book is the author actually gives insight that not all mated couple are perfect and there're a lot of mated couple who messed up.

The plot itself is fast paced with abit flashback here and there. But I feel the story a bit rushed 20% towards the end of the book.

Anyway I really enjoy reading Wolfbane. Thank you NetGalley for giving me the chance to review this book.

Final rate :
Plot : ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Spice : ⭐️⭐️
Character building : ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

First off, this review is not for the under 18 crowd. So, all you young'uns just go grab a soda and read a different book. I'm not having the mom brigade come after me with pitchforks thinking I recommended this book to younger adults or children with the spice level in this book. I've already been down that message stream and don't want a repeat. So go on and move along. Ok, now that the "unders" are gone, let's get down to the review!

This paranormal romance is an interesting twist on the fated mates/love triangle/second chances trope that was a fun read on a Sunday afternoon. Jazzmine, a young college student, has done the impossible and saved herself for her fated mate, much to the chagrin of her best friend and the few boys who have dared to look her way. The book gives an interesting look at fated vs chosen mates while pitting friends against each other in a love triangle and throws in another hot guy to offer up just in case one hot guy isn't enough. Add in a brewing war to intensify everything as well and you have a fun, explosive read to enjoy! The author did a wonderful job of adding enough spice to heat things up while not being overtly gratuitous. I've not read anything from this author before and while I think there is some room for improvement, I'll definitely read the next book in the series as the author has woven a creative world of werewolves that are entertaining and spicy that are entertaining and fun!

Wolfbane was brilliant; it wasn’t my usual kind of book but I am so glad I decided to give it a go. It was romantic and steamy, well written with a good story and I could not put it down.

If you love shifter romances and need a story with a little more depth - Wolfbane is your next read!

More than your average smutty shifter romance, what I loved most about Wolfsbane is that it's not an insta-love situation. People don't fall in love automatically even when they're fated to be together. Their relationships have taken REAL work, and the story doesn't end with a perfect cherry on top. Even though the characters go through a lot of angsty trials with cheating partners and even a surprise pregnancy... it's the ending we need!

I also loved the politics between the packs in this book. It felt more realistic and almost like there could be a pack in Vermont! lol

Wow, this was unexpectedly awesome! Don’t get me wrong i truly thought this would be good but was just so much better. I had tears, anticipation, toe curling moments, and sadness. This book had me turning each page eagerly and was not disappointed. I look forward to book two not sure who that is about or if it introduce new characters.

I received an advanced reader's copy of Wolfbane (Wolfbane Series Book 1) by Celia Hart from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Overall, I enjoyed this novel. The main characters were an interesting and secondary characters were well developed. I liked the characters’ banter, chemistry, and story arc. The novel was well written and the plot was engaging, if a bit predictable.

This is the first book I’ve downloaded from NetGalley and I wanted to provide an honest review of the book in my own words.

Wow! I wasn’t sure what to expect from the debut novel from Celia Hart, but what she delivered was fantastic! The story circles around four young adults trying to navigate their roles in their wolf pack and the troubles that come along when love is involved. This book includes some very relatable subjects and really endears the characters to readers.

Often times with shifter novels there’s not a good balance between plot and spice. The author was able to capture that perfectly and provided readers with the opportunity to get to know the characters both in and out of the bedroom. While Jasmine was the main character, it’s Blake I would have liked to read more of. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone interested in paranormal romances or shifters in general.

Wolfbane is a beautifully written, heart wrenching story that was a nice change of pace. It is a story about second chances, healing, forgiveness, working together, and full of lessons along the way.

I started this book thinking I’d know what happens, however I was pleasantly surprised!

I hated the character Luke throughout this book and I didn’t particularly like Lucy either. Blake? Now Blake I loved ! Can’t wait to read the next book.


If you like werewolf books, new takes on mates and lots of steamy smut this will be a great read for you

5/5 would recommend to anyone!!!

This book was exactly what I need to read. It had romance and it had so much plot. It got predictable at times but in a good way. I loved the lore that came with this book and the emotions that were there with the characters definitely a good read I didn't wanna put it down.

Thank you netgalley for allowing me to read this book. This book frustrated me to no end but I couldn’t stop reading! This book made me feel so many different emotions but I believe that shows what a great job the author did. I was never bored and I really like how unpredictable it was. I loved the tension and chemistry between Blake and Jasmine! I don’t like the fact Lucy got exactly what she wanted when she didn’t deserve it and I would’ve liked to see her reaction to meeting her true mate. I loved the drama but I HATE cheating in books so that bothered me a lot. I really liked the ending of the book and made me excited to read the second book in the future.

This was a really interesting take on fated mates and second chances. I liked the fact the characters were flawed and it wasn’t the usual “perfectly matched” scenario.

There were moments I wanted to throttle Luke and Lucy definitely needed her best friend/girl card revoked but that’s what made it a great read. The angst! I’ve gotta say I was definitely happy with the outcome.
