Publication Date: April 5, 2021
Publisher: Entangled Teen
For the first time in his life, Rain Ryland belongs. He’s found a home with the wolf shifters of New Wurzburg and is no-holds-barred in love with Friederike Burkhart, their soon-to-be alpha. But the ascension to power is never easy for a new alpha, and challengers will come from an unlikely source—and bring into jeopardy not just Freddie’s position as alpha but her blooming relationship with Rain. Rain has never shied away from a challenge—or a fight. And he’s ready to fight like hell for the woman he loves. But then a vision shows him that the biggest challenge of all to Freddie isn’t to her alpha status but against her life...and he’s the one who delivers the killing blow.

My Review:
4 Out Of 5 Stars
Genre: Mystery, Romance, Supernatural, Suspense, Teen, Werewolves, Witches, Zombies--
Moral of the story is that Rain seriously can not catch a break! This boy keeps finding himself in terrible situations, and only his own street smarts, level head and sheer determination are the tools needed to save the day. This sequel took the happy ending of Haven and ripped it apart, leaving a devastated Rain only a week to pick up the pieces of his life as well as solve a dangerous and deadly mystery and get the girl he loves before the Alpha cerimony.
The plot was fast paced and engaging, the mystery was twisty, and the action was fabulous, but my favorite part of this story was the characters. I just adore Rain, I would not change a thing about him and I like the spin on this series that he is the narrator and perfectly open about his feelings and past with the reader. Another twist I enjoy about this series is that Freddie is the alpha all powerful wolf as a teenage girl and for the most part, most people accept it as fact. But we also have some other great side characters like Grant with his unknown motivations and the wereolf pack/ cousins to help balance out the dynamic. Can we just spend a minute talking about how badass Petra was? She singlehandedly was fighting off all the zombies on her own, totally handaling it like it was just another day- which in her life, it totally was. I know Freddie is considered the ultimate female here since she is the Alpha werewolf and super dominant, but Petra I think is right up there and can hold her own. I would love for her to get her own book in this world! Ok, tangent over.
I feel like where most things were tied up well, this sequel felt a little like there could be a third book in the series. I had no idea there was going to be a second with how perfect the ending was to Haven, but with this I think another book could be an option- but maybe that is just wishful thinking on my part since I am not sure I am ready to say goodbye to Rain and this moderetely dysfunctional werewolf pack. I think this siries is perfect for anyone who loves a solid and empathetic narrator who tries to do the right thing, girls taking charge, all things werewolf, shady yet powerful witches and even a zombie or two thrown in.

Book Blurb:
We all hold a beast inside. The only difference is what form it takes when freed.
Rain Ryland has never belonged anywhere, He’s used to people judging him for his rough background, his intimidating size, and now, his orphan status. He’s always been on the outside, looking in, and he’s fine with that. Until he moves to New Wurzburg and meets Friederike Burkhart.
Freddie isn’t like normal teen girls, though. And someone wants her dead for it. Freddie warns he’d better stay far away if he wants to stay alive, but Rain’s never been good at running from trouble. For the first time, Rain has something worth fighting for, worth living for. Worth dying for.
