Sometimes fate gets it all wrong.

Zoey Kent has lived with that fact ever since she turned eighteen and learned that the man she loved could never be hers. He’s a born shifter, a wolf, and she’s a mere human. Fate doesn’t care if on paper they’re a perfect pair. She isn’t his fated mate and she’s resigned herself to the knowledge that someday, she’ll have to watch Michael mate with another. It’s never crossed her mind that there might be someone else out there for her, that she would be the one to mate another, to choose another over everything she’s ever known or wanted.

Sometimes fate gets it all right.

Rafe Hudson left his pack behind years ago. Physically and mentally scarred from an attack that left his parents and twin dead, he walked away from his responsibilities as Alpha. He never intended to return but lone wolf or not, he can’t leave Michael open to an attack he’s learned is coming for his only brother. What he didn’t know was that going home would mean scenting his mate, the one person in the world that could make him whole again, that could give him everything he thought he’d lost. His pack, his home and his family.

But fate always has a plan.

There’s no way Michael’s brother is her future, is there? Just like there’s no way that the girl his brother has loved since they were kids, was always meant to be his, right? Only fate knows why they were brought together but there is one thing for sure, the sparks between Zoey and Rafe are undeniable. The bond between them is unbreakable. And together… they’ll change the face of the pack forever.

Unexpected Mate

Damn this is a good storyline, well written plot, good supporting characters, looks like it's gonna be a good series 🤗. This storyline ends with a cliffhanger 🤔. Rafe, the true Alpha comes home finally, but it's to ask his brother Michael who is the pack Alpha to help a neighboring pack that's in big trouble 😔. Rafe unexpectedly scents his mate, she's his brother's best friend, she's not a shifter, this sets off a fight between two brothers over Zoey 😮. Michael is attacked by rogue wolves 😳. Help is on the way for the neighboring pack 😉.

So funny story. I was in cohorts today doing some can Friday and I entered this one. No I didn't win this book, but the author texted me and said I have a book that has the genres you like. She gave me the book title and guess what, I read it. It was perfect for my first new read of the new year.

Can I say I loved all the characters in this book. Michael, zoey, rafe. They were all awesome. Now I'm not one to tell you about the story, but will tell you I loved the writing of the author.

Michael is the alpha of the pack. He's strong and he loves a girl he's not mated to. Zoey has been in his life forever and all I can say is you can tell. But when his brother, rafe, comes back all heck breaks loose. Rafe is an alpha to, and yes there is a story behind it, but he is only there for a reason. It helps to know that Zoey is going to be the deal breaker for both wolves.

But not only do you get romance. You also get a pretty powerful story about the pack. With all that being said this is a duet book so you will have to read the next book for the ending. And I bet it's gonna be pretty good.

Great first book from an author that is new to me.

fine read

The third person narration made the following of this less entertaining because it also went back and forth from being from the FMC’s perspective to the MMC’s perspective but always third person. Why? If the story was gonna vary just do first person POV. this story did a lot of the set up for the series I’m assuming. Not much happened, quite literally. The biggest interest was the epilogue that set up book 2. It was fine.

This book is so awesome that I had to read it twice! I’m sure that everyone has that “feel good” read. It’s a book you can reread when you’re in a particular mood. I know that in my case, it helped me escape the monotony of staying home. I love this book for several reasons. The first one is the lack of bone chilling horror. It isn’t a dark fantasy with heads being boiled, but there are a few fight scenes that are enough to keep a fantasy fan like me excited. It also has a romance that is unexpected by both characters.
You have Zoey, who is a human that was adopted by a shifter couple. She spends the beginning of the book thinking about Michael, her best friend, and alpha of the pack. Despite longing for one another, the pair still manages to be friends. A relationship between them is hopeless, since they are not fated mates. Rafe on the other hand is broken for a good reason. Rafe was the rightful alpha of his brother Michael’s pack, who vanished after the death of his twin brother and his parents. He holds on to guilt that kept him away from the pack for years.
Naturally, Michael tries to prevent Rafe from claiming his soulmate, but Zoey fights for the man that belongs to her. Thank goodness, she’s a female lead with a back bone. This is a shifter romance, so there is instalove, steam, dialogue, and testosterone. The side characters are interesting. The threat to the pack does reveal himself, and he is handled in the second novel, which I have also read and enjoyed.
If you’re looking for a new adult novel that has steam, love, and hot werewolves, this is the book for you!

Great story, just a bit wordy in places. I didn’t like is the possessive lunatic that Rafe is with Zoey. Multiple times he said my mate, my, wome, my light, my.. my... my...MINE. Over and over again especially with Michael is around, or she talked about hime or hugs Michael. Her best friend from the age of 10. The beginning I really enjoyed with Michael keeping Zoey away from Rafe, keeping Rafe locked up in jail, the fighting between the brothers about Zoey and the tension of the whole forest fight. Micheal and Rafe had different agendas about Zoey and her fate is in their hands, one protects her from the other and hopes to beat the mating heat and the other brother wants to rut and mate asap before his wolf makes an appearance after years of not shifting. Rafe is broken and still lives in regret of the day he lost is parents and younger twin brother to hunters and still he believed is his fault. Zoey is he opposite but broken of the heart, her love for Michael is years in hiding when she turned 18 Micheal didn’t scent her as his fated mate, but she loved him an David Micheal loves her as a best friend and in a family scenes of love. Since Micheal was left behind when Rafe ran away and left the pack and the responsibilities to little Michel, Zoey was the family he needed to survive his new title.

she has not disappointed!!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 19, 2018

I am a huge fan of Jess Bryant and had high expectations from the moment I read the blurb and I can tell you, she has not disappointed!!! I am a paranormal fan and expect it to be great with how much is out there. Jess has given us a great spin on a classic paranormal love story.
Zoey is such a sassy girl and possibly one of my favorite heroines. She knows what she feels and does not doubt herself or her beliefs. Fate is something she strongly believes in and thinks that fate has made a mistake until she meets her mate and then she questions it all. Her love and passion for life and the people in it is truly inspiring.
Rafe is the bad boy that we all hate to love but cannot help ourselves. Rafe has been through so much and doesn't trust himself or that fate has done anything good in his life. He meets his mate and isn't sure how to deal with it at all. Rafe has so much to overcome and such a short time to actually cope with it all.
This book is a nonstop rollercoaster ride, from happy to angsty to heartbreaking (in a very good way), I did not go through even one chapter without the feelings overwhelming me in the best way possible! I can tell you that I now have a book hangover like no other and cannot wait for book two!!
This is my honest and unbiased opinion.

When FATE finds you LOVE

Reviewed in Australia on May 17, 2018

I have been so keen to read this book since Jess Bryant first announced that she was writing her first paranormal romance novel. Despite being a big fan of Twilight, I haven’t read many books in this genre but I’m definitely keen to find some more good quality paranormal romance books. This was also my first shifter - in this case werewolf shifter - romance and I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT! Jess has done an incredible job of creating a captivating romance that has a fascinating folklore base which she explained beautifully and in no way detracted from the story.

Zoey has grown up in a shifter community - adopted by a werewolf couple who couldn’t have kids - and her best friend Michael is a werewolf, the alpha pack leader and the man she has loved for most of her life. However, in the shifter world, werewolves don’t “fall in love” in the traditional human way... they have a mate, someone destined to be theirs ... and unfortunately Zoe is not fated to be Michael’s. When Michael’s brother Rafe comes back to town and it seems that he is the werewolf fated to be Zoey’s mate - well expect some fireworks and one incredible story!!

What I loved about this story was the fact it unfolded over a few days and was told in almost “real time”. I love a romance where you feel like you get to know the characters so well as they start to fall in love. And while Rafe and Zoey’s relationship is a definite insta-lust, insta-love situation, in the shifter world that Jess has created it doesn’t feel unnaturally forced like it can in a “regular” romance novel. The connection between these two is real and beautiful and they make an incredible pair. While fate brings them together, it’s their true feelings for each other that will make or break a potential ongoing relationship.

The overarching storyline - and “bad guy” - continues into the next story which is Michael’s and his fated mate Luna. I was glad that Rafe and Zoey’s story concludes but I’m super keen to find out how the rest of the arc they started in Unbreakable Bond plays out.

A lot of internal monologue which feels a bit like filler. Good story, good characters but it ends rather flatly….. anti climatic. I would have given it 5 stars if it was a Novella. I doubt I will read the follow up

Instant attraction and very fast burn relationship.
Good steam and really sweet couple. I'm always a sucker for "the grumpy one is soft for the sunshine one".
FMC was great. Stood up for herself and what she believed in while still being a little naive. She felt realistic in a way many FMCs don't these days.
Really liked the MMC. Broken bad boys get me every time.

Uhm.... where was the ending!?

Reviewed in Canada on May 6, 2021

I actually really enjoyed the book! It was sweet and simple. BUT, there was no ending!? It’s like she just decided to stopped writing all of a sudden and I thought it was pretty anticlimactic. I was really enjoying it but the “ending” was just too disappointing.
