3.0

It’s extremely cheesy, but I had a good time with it. 

The one thing I don’t understand is why Vi and Thorn were cast as a witch and a werewolf… they could have just been a man and a woman for all the effect it had on the story. 

The “elder’s council” seemed extremely arbitrary with their rules for mating and at what age a witch needs to be bound… also… what exactly is Thorn’s job? Is it important? Does he earn a lot of money being an alpha? The worldbuilding in this novel was extremely weak, and the two main characters seemed to be ready to fall in love the author just needed strange, arbitrary reasons to keep them apart.
