Synopsis
If your inner wolf and your body react rather enthusiastically to a psychotic Alpha male who’s own wolf has a tendency to turn feral, it can’t be a good thing, can it? Entering into a bargain with him wouldn’t be good either. Unfortunately, Taryn Warner, a latent wolf shifter, doesn’t have many options open to her right now. Okay, she has no options. Basically it comes down to whether she’ll do what it takes to escape the arranged mating with the sick SOB that her father set up. As the answer in this case is yes, it looks as though she’ll have to agree to Trey Coleman’s deal… she’ll have to mate with him instead.
Having always disliked shifter politics, Trey Coleman hadn’t bothered trying to form alliances with other packs. Now that his uncle – a wolf with many alliances – means to take Trey’s territory and his pack, he has no option but to form some alliances of his own very quickly or he’ll be easily outnumbered in the upcoming battle. He figures that the easiest way to do that would be to mate with a female whose Alpha is powerful and influential. There’s only one problem with that – he would then be stuck with her, and the last thing Trey wants is a mate. When he hears of Taryn’s situation, he offers her a deal – if she falsely claims he’s her true mate and allows him to claim her, he’ll save her from her arranged mating and then let her leave after the battle with his uncle is over.
Sounds like a pretty straightforward deal…but soon Taryn and Trey realize they got more than they bargained for. Their mating instincts to protect and possess are weighing on them, they crave each other’s touch and company, and their inner wolves don’t like it whenever they’re apart. Add in that they’ll have to deal with this for an entire three months until the day of the battle finally arrives, and they’ve got themselves a recipe for disaster – or maybe for something quite the opposite.

Review
I don’t know why but Shifter romances books don’t always tend to be my favorites. Some I love, and others I’m a little more on the fence about; Feral Sins was one that I really enjoyed.
Let me say that there is a lot of sex in the book, there is still a plot, but Taryn and Trey have some serious urges. I liked how they challenged each other. Both of them have some serious baggage, and I liked how they helped each other through it. Taryn, for she had been through, was particularly strong, and I enjoyed how Trey encouraged her strength rather than trying to control it. As fearsome of a reputation Trey had, you could tell he was a fair person, and I respected that.
As I mentioned, there was a plot, but the story was really more about Trey and Taryn and their relationship. Did I guess how this was going to play out? Yes, but the journey was an entertaining ride. I enjoyed all of the side characters and will enjoy reading their individual stories as the series continues.
