The Wolf Born Trilogy Book 1: Hidden Mate by Jen L. Grey

Hidden Mate (The Wolf Born Trilogy #1)
The Wolf Born Trilogy Book 1

After years of constant criticism, I finally escape the alpha of the strongest pack--my father. It’s a chance to have a new beginning, and to live on my own terms, in my own way.

The first day at college, I find more than what I bargained for.

My fated mate.

Something that any wolf rejoices in finding. Except he’s forbidden--a human. The weakest race on Earth and someone my father would kill without any hesitation.

Choices must be made, and loyalties will be tested. With everything on the brink of destruction, only one thing is certain... my life will never be the same.

My Review: 4/5

I'm a big paranormal shifters, fated mates, and all kinds of magic kind of gal. Love it all. And this was definitely a new twist on shifters. The story follows Sadie, a wolf shifter with a horribly bad alpha father. She gets permission to head to college and is ready to have some sort of freedom away from her dad who is constantly trying to take over all shifters and is determined to marry her off to the strongest shifter. Because to him that is all she is good for. Even college comes with its strings in the form of another wolf shifter Brock who is basically playing spy for her father and thinks Sadie will belong to him eventually. Though not if she can help it. Her first day kicks off with a bang. Not only does she meet some vampires who are not bad like her father makes them out to be, she comes across Donovan. A human she is immediately drawn to despite the fact that humans are a big no no. No, in learning about the paranormal world and no, when it comes being too weak. Sadie's father preaches that there is a hierarchy, not just with packs but with everyone in the world. And the strong stay with the strong and never with the weak. Yet, Sadie can't help how she feels. They get off to a rocky start, making assumptions about the other. Then both of their best friends try to steer them away from one another. But how long can that possibly last? Not with the pull both of them are feeling.Then, there is a very old and dangerous vampire running around killing humans. It will be up to Sadie, her best friend Rocky, her new vampire friends, and a very rare dragon to stop the vampire. That is, on top of Sadie can protecting Donovan not only from herself but from her father if his spies report back to him that she is spending time with a human. College just got more complicated for Sadie. So like I said earlier, definitely a different twist to shifters and a world of magic, but one that I am definitely intrigued to learn more about. Especially with a crazy cliffhanger it left us with!! Definitely will check out book two when it comes out in a few weeks.
