Skinny, quiet hipster Dylan Warner was the kind of guy other men barely glanced at until an evening's indiscretion with a handsome stranger turned him into a werewolf. Now, despite a slightly hairy handicap, he just wants to live an ordinary - if lonely - life as an architect. He tries to keep his wild impulses in check, but after one too many close calls, Dylan gives up his urban life and moves to the country, where he will be less likely to harm someone else. His new home is a dilapidated but promising house that comes with a former Christmas tree farm and a solitary neighbor: sexy, rustic Chris Nock.

Dylan hires Chris to help him renovate the farmhouse and quickly discovers his assumptions about his neighbor are inaccurate - and that he'd very much like Chris to become a permanent fixture in his life as well as his home. Between proving himself to his boss, coping with the seductive lure of his dangerous ex-lover, and his limited romantic experience, Dylan finds it hard enough to express himself. How can he bring up his monthly urge to howl at the moon?

This was an audio that had twist and turns all over the place.

Dylan has an issue, the one time he was noticed at a bar was of course by a werewolf that couldn’t control his urges and bit him. Now he lives with this anvil around his neck every full moon. Deciding enough, he finds a run down farm house that needs restoring but since that’s his field, it’s perfect. The only issue is he’s neighbor.

Chris is about the most ungay stereotype there is. Which is awesome, he’s brass, gets drunk on cheap beer, fixes up anything with an engine, pee’s off the back porch, brilliant.

So when they get together and start the reno, and things heat up between them Dylan is confused on one, is Chris gay and two why would this Handsome man want him.

As the story unfolds and we get a better understanding on what makes each of these two tick we can see how perfect they are together. The moods that Chris has, is rooted in the insecurities. And the big secret that Dylan has is ruling and running his life.

But of course these two get these act together, and we get our HEA in the end.

The narrator, did a wonderful job with all of these characters.

WHY SOULPATCH WHY.

Werewolf + human MCs, moving to middle of nowhere to hide wolfy-ness, house renovation montages, human MC is smelly - but in a way that wolfy MC enjoys? Idek, the relationship arc in this went from 'are you h*moph0bic' to frotting on a couch.

There's some dated language and comments sprinkled throughout this, mainly random hom0ph*bic slurs and toxic masculinity phrases, and one MC is nicknamed d*ldo for funsies. Did I mention the soul patch? Also, this is peak 2012 cringy hipster, with one MC a full hip guy with meticulously curated early 2010 taste. I can't fault the time period, but it's dated as heck, lol.

CW for side plot sister-in-law fertility issues that was sprinkled in for angst? Idek.

If this plotline (recently turned werewolf banishes themself to rural wilderness to be alone and be a martyr, relationship with neighbor ensues) was not so plugged into 2010's modern day and also there was more chemistry besides 'he smells smelly, my wolf loves it' I would have been more on board. There needed more relationship development, less machismo, less hipster, and more feelings for me.

This was a fun story with a bit of paranormal thrown in with it. I really liked the way we got to see the relationship being built as the two men worked on the house renovations and how they supported each other in various ways as they grew closer and closer.

Then the full moon rolls around and we are exposed to why Dylan wanted to get away from city life in the first place... and why he loves living in the woods as well..... until his nasty ex enters the picture and all Dylan's secrets are exposed.

I liked the suspense in wondering how/when the secret would come out and wondering how it would be handled.

A very well written book.

Nick Russo did an great job narrating the book as well. I've listened to numerous projects of his now and he has a great voice for narrating and bringing the story to life with a good tempo and reading speed.

I received a free copy of this book to read for Inked Rainbow Reads in exchange for an honest review.

I'm honestly at a loss here. I really wanted to like this book. At then end I was left wondering what was the point of the whole werewolf thing? There was SO much more than could have been done with that. I can only speculate that there may be a sequel or two to help develop that aspect of the storyline. If not, a complete waste.

I really wanted to like this book.
