Summary

Nakira Williams has been different her entire life. She’s heard the whispers of witch, but never gave those claims credence until she turned eighteen and the visions started. Everything changed. She’d met her mate and learned about the shifters in the town she’s lived in her whole life—where there were even whispers that she was a witch. Other than the cursed visions, she’d no real magical powers. Plus, magic didn’t exist. But learning about shifters and being someone’s mate, has triggered a different vision. No longer did she see her newfound mate dying, but one that affected his pack. War was coming. A war aimed at wiping out the Springlake Pines Pack once and for all.

Devin James is next in line for Alpha of the Springlake Pines Pack, but he’s confident he won’t have to take up that mantle until years from now. He’s found his mate, Nakira, at a young age and has been living out his dream of being a college football star. For the last three years, she’s told him war is coming to the Springlake Pines Pack. That he’s going to die if they can’t stop it, without knowing when or who. But Devin’s wolf is a beast and will do whatever he can not to let that happen and it starts with claiming his mate.

Until now. Nakira’s new vision prompts the Wolf Prince to finally come home. His wolf is a monster that after years of keeping chained, must be unleashed if they are to survive.

Only together can he and Nakira defeat what’s coming to exterminate the Springlake Pines Pack.

I was genuinely excited for this series, especially because it’s set in South Carolina (a state we don’t often see represented in paranormal romance, and that alone made this feel refreshing.) The premise has a lot of promise: witches, fated mates, emerging powers, and wolf shifters are all catnip for me. And I have to give credit where it’s due- the narrator did a fabulous job with the material and brought heart and atmosphere to the story. That said, this felt like a story I wanted more from. At under four hours, the novella length left the plot feeling rushed and underdeveloped. There were several abrupt time leaps and transitions that had me wondering if I’d missed a chapter, and some repeated phrasing and plot holes pulled me out of the story. The core storyline is enjoyable but familiar, and I kept wishing the worldbuilding, character growth, and relationship arc had been given room to breathe. Honestly, I think this series has the bones of something stronger than what’s currently on the page. With additional development and tighter editing, I could see it becoming a much richer and more immersive story. While this one didn’t fully cast its spell on me, I did appreciate the unique setting and strong narration, and I’d be interested to see how the series grows.
