Some people might call Avery Babineaux a prick. He’s a hedgehog shifter from an old-money Louisiana family, with a penchant for expensive shoes and a reputation for being a judgmental snob. His attitude is why he and his fated mate are estranged. Not that Avery cares. He doesn’t want to be mated to some blue-collar werewolf anyway. Or so he keeps telling himself.
No werewolf likes to be looked down upon, least of all Dylan Green. He doesn’t need a mate, especially not some snotty hedgehog who sneers at his custom motorcycle shop and calls him a grease monkey. But when Avery gets into trouble with a shady loan shark, Dylan can’t stand by and let him be hurt—whether he wants the brat or not.
Yet once Dylan steps into Avery’s world, he realizes there’s more to Avery than his prickly exterior, and that unexpected vulnerability calls to Dylan’s protective instincts. The sassy little hedgehog needs a keeper, and despite their horrible first impressions, Dylan starts to believe he might be the wolf for the job.

That's just too adorable. Hedgehogs are adorable!!But Avery was one of the most unlikable characters I've ever read. I gues...
BR, July 31st with Susan, Tara and Kat.3,5 starsI must be out of my mind, but I actually kind of liked this…Avery, the hedgehog was sweet. His human temper matched his animal side. He was prickly, snarky, acted like a snob but was adorable as well at times..Don’t get me started with the big, alpha w...
I had a love hate relationship with this book. It started out pretty good and I was enjoying it but then it just started to lose some of it's appeal with Avery's actions and his pettiness. Dylan wasn't that much better and there were points in which I thought the two were acting like children. Avery...
