To Read is To Live

Bite Me Tender - Kate Lowell 3.75 stars rounded upMy first experience with Kate Lowell was for her "Love Has No Boundaries" contribution, [b:Sign of Spring|18070868|Sign of Spring|Kate Lowell|http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1371072528s/18070868.jpg|25369476]. I liked that story enough to give this one a try. And I really enjoyed it.What I loved about this was the new 'offer' regarding werewolf tropes. As an Alpha (and a gay one), Levi was expected to make some new male wolves to strengthen the number of his pack. Female ones could make new male wolves too, but of course since Levi was a male, he was stronger and had higher possibility to succeed. I thought this plot was highly interestingThe problem was, Levi was in a relationship with Glyn (a male witch) -- and while Glyn truly wanted to become a werewolf, it never had been successful. And they've been trying for a year! So Levi's council was forcing him a male human for Levi to turn. I enjoyed reading Levi's turmoil -- his responsibility as Alpha versus his love (and monogamous relationship with Glyn). Because Glyn wouldn't share his lover! No siree.I enjoyed that Levi and Glyn was an established couple. I felt entertained with Glyn's witch grandmother who in the end helped Levi and Glyn to achieve what they wanted. The grandmother was a really fun character!!This wasn't a solid 4-stars though, due to a couple of reasons. One, while I loved established couple, I still missed how Levi and Glyn became together. I would love to read that prequel. Second, I wasn't too happy with the hint that now Glyn was a werewolf, he might end up turning other males, as his wolf were now welcoming the idea -- meaning that Levi and Glyn might 'play' with other males when needed. I know that it could be necessary to add male members to the pack, but still, I'm NOT happy with it *pout*.All in all, an enjoyable werewolf story. I would definitely check out other stories from Kate Lowell.PS: No baby as endearment!!

I'm happy!!
