My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I was provided an ARC of this book via the author and Smartypants Romance, all opinions are my own.
This is a slow burn paranormal reimagining of Penny Reid’s Winston Brother’s series, fans of the original series will see the similarities between Green Valley and Moonlight Valley. Instead of Winston’s we have Boone’s a family of werewolf shifting brothers who run an animal rescue business and each resemble one of the Winston. Ford Boone is a partner in the family business and he has been in love with Alice Aymes since they were teenagers. She on the other hand thinks she is in love with his identical twin. Ford and Alice have always fought when she came to visit her Aunt Sally. Now that they are both adults and she has returned to town to deal with her Aunt’s estate their enemies to lovers dynamic picks up where they left off as teens. Alice realizes that she has always been attracted to Ford, and he admits his feelings for her.
As Ford and Alice agree to pursue a relationship of sorts with each other, they both have to deal with some unexpected emotions about relationships. They are both planners, and they both have some hang-ups when it comes to commitments. Alice has big plans for her life and they don't have her staying in Moonlight Valley forever. Ford knows that Alices is his one and only, but he knows that she is going to leave and break his heart one day, so he doesn't go all in on the relationship. He also has some dealings with some unsavory characters that he is trying to protect her and his brothers from. I loved the interactions and conversations they had. They had good banter and this was really funny at times.
Overall I think this was a fun reimagining and I enjoyed the paranormal twist. I do think it was a tad on the long side in my opinion.
