Fate paired me with the one she-wolf I could never trust.

Five years ago, my beautiful neighbor Carlotta betrayed me.

My family was destroyed.

Because of her, the pack banished my father,

relegating me and my mom with a lowered status, barely able to scrape by.

Carlotta left town before I found out why she did it.

Before I had the chance to make her pay.

But now she’s back.

She hasn’t changed much, but I have.

I’m twice her size now. Far more dominant.

And I just discovered she belongs to me.

Which means Carlotta James is completely at my mercy.

And I do intend to make her beg.

USA Today bestselling author Renee Rose delivers on this intense new adult forbidden love shifter bully romance.

Overall Opinion :

I am a huge fan of this author and when I saw this book by her and rad the blurb , I was all over it. This book has a genre that I am particularly a huge fan of , that being Student-teacher bully romance with the female protagonist being the teacher.

Lotta and Asher are something else and I loved their chemistry a lot. With this author , I have always found her steamy scenes and the chemistry between the characters to be good , but the plot and the character buildup is often missing. Same was the case in this book. I just felt like I could have connected to the characters more but never had the chance. The storyline was sweet and there were some angsty and dark parts as well but they could have been leveraged better. That being said this was a good one time read for me.
