About This Romance ARC

4.0 • 2

Emily came to Whispering Hollow for artistic inspiration and ended up with a roommate who howls at the moon. Caleb is gorgeous, guarded, and cursed: a loup-garou bound to the land, he storms out when his wolf threatens to get the better of him. Emily doesn’t flinch—she sketches him, teases him, and maybe stares a little too long.

At the Specter Suites, where magic is just part of the décor, Nina—the hotel's owner and resident witch—offers a tea that coaxes truth from the heart. When she proposes a ritual to help Caleb gain control, Emily volunteers.

What started as curiosity becomes connection. The ritual forces Caleb to see himself through Emily’s eyes; it forces Emily to decide how much of herself she’s willing to risk. The stakes are personal: a future he chooses, or a curse that keeps choosing for him.

Part small-town charm, part dangerous heat, this novella is for those who aren't afraid of the big bad wolf.

I loved that the writing itself was amazing and I loved the story as well. However, I felt like there could be more details added to the world building and characters background.

I wanted to know more about Caleb and a little bit more of what was life like before he met Emily. I also feel like the story was too short. If it was a little longer perhaps, we could see how their relationship progresses in real time, that part felt a little too quick for me. From what we know about Caleb he has being struggling with his curse but we don't see how he was struggling. (like situations besides not leaving the hotel grounds).

Overall I felt this was a good book as a novella or a prequel to the story-if there is one. The character's are well developed and easy to fall in love with. This story is for you if you like:
-instant connections
-shifter romances with a little dark undertone
-she fell first but he fell harder
-a story that short and sweet.

Perhaps too short, but a nice journey!
