Goodreads synopsis:

“When a young upstart alpha werewolf moves in on Ardalyn Hunter’s grandfather’s region, she finds herself in the center of pack politics while coming into her own as the Huntress.

Will Ardalyn and Ryman’s relationship be worth a king’s ransom?”

My Review

What I liked about King’s Ransom 

1. Again (as with the last couple of books), it had hot werewolf sex.
2.  The characters were somewhat relatable.
3.  I liked Perrin’s character a lot. He cracked me up, for some reason.

What I didn’t like about King’s Ransom 

*The sex. I was burnt out on the sex by the time the characters got around to it

*The plot. It confused me. The book starts with a werewolf trying to take over all of the packs. It ended with Ardalyn and Ryman’s relationship.

* I couldn’t stand Ardalyn’s character. I wanted to reach through the pages and bitch slap her. She was this tough woman until she met Ryman, and then it was the opposite. Plus, she started acting like a spoiled brat.

Would I read King’s Ransom again? Yup

Would I recommend King’s Ransom to other people? Yes, but with the warning that it was erotica. Erotica doesn’t float a lot of people’s boat if you know what I mean.
