Opis
Misery Lark, the only daughter of the most powerful Vampyre councilman of the Southwest, is an outcast—again. Her days of living in anonymity among the Humans are over: she has been called upon to uphold a historic peacekeeping alliance between the Vampyres and their mortal enemies, the Weres, and she sees little choice but to surrender herself in the exchange—again...
Weres are ruthless and unpredictable, and their Alpha, Lowe Moreland, is no exception. He rules his pack with absolute authority, but not without justice. And, unlike the Vampyre Council, not without feeling. It’s clear from the way he tracks Misery’s every movement that he doesn’t trust her. If only he knew how right he was….
Because Misery has her own reasons to agree to this marriage of convenience, reasons that have nothing to do with politics or alliances, and everything to do with the only thing she's ever cared about. And she is willing to do whatever it takes to get back what’s hers, even if it means a life alone in Were territory…alone with the wolf.

Eu sempre fico sem palavras com o quanto a escrita e a imaginação da Ali é incrível.
Muy buen libro, la trama te engancha desde el inicio. Me lo leeria una y mil veces sin aburrirme. Me puso a llorar, a gritar, un sin fin de emociones en tan poco, literal me lo lei completo en dia y medio
Guys. I’m so torn on this one. I wanted to LOVE it so much. Everyone seems to love it so much! And I did really enjoy it for the most part… but I have some questions and… feelings. lol This was not the typical vampire/werewolf book that I expected but I thought it was an interesting take on the genre and lore. Definitely more romance focused than any extensive world building, but one major thing that I feel should have been more adequately explained, as it’s the main basis of the book, is the entire premise of the marriage. It didn’t really make sense to me. If everyone KNEW it wasn’t a real marriage and it worked the exact same way as the Collateral program with the humans… why WASN’T it just the Collateral program? Especially as traditional marriage was a human tradition and not something either the vampires or werewolves normally did. The marriage didn’t really seem to do anything for the plot one way or another either so I guess I’m just confused about how/why it needed to happen. Otherwise, I liked the mystery and political aspect and didn’t see the who, what, and why coming. I really enjoyed the little headers for each chapter giving insight into the Lowe’s thoughts and I really liked Misery and her blunt wittiness. She made me chuckle out loud several times. As for the romance, I loved them together. I loved the banter and chemistry but I could have done WITHOUT the spice in this book - iykyk. I have never CRINGED so hard! It took away from it for me and probably would have been 4 stars otherwise.
