Saying "Bully Wolf's Mate" has the same ~mouth feel~ as saying "Billy Goat's Gruff" and I feel someone should have caught that in the editing process6 s Carrie O481 8

When the bully doesn't know he's a bully, but he wins the girl anyway... #6 in the Silverdale Wolves series.

A satisfying shifter story. Slightly uneven occasionally, but mostly quite good. I was confused at the start with the idea of Demon Wolves. I haven't read other books in the series, which could have helped a little, but the story stands well enough on its own. Werewolves, witches, curses, and magic stones of power, nobel sacrifice, forgiveness, and respect, all woven together in an interesting mesh.

Amber is a traumatized young [demon] wolf shifter. She's lived through abuse, assault, and humiliation among a pack of demon wolves. [For reasons I missed, some wolves were cursed to hell, and part of the curse gives them greater strength and a fire in their fur that can burn others, even other demon wolves.] Amber is a weak wolf and the recipient of sexual and physical abuse from the Alpha and rest of the pack, minus her brother and his best friend. Yet even her brother and his best friend, Miles, abuse her verbally - an element I confess which continues to bother me. Time passes, and we find Amber, her brother, and Miles, in a normal pack with wolves and witches, having escaped the demon pack, in the knowledge that the demon Alpha is hunting them now. Amber is understandably unable to feel safe or wanted, and feeling all the suspicions of the new pack. Her brother has found a mate in a witch member of the pack, and is settling in better than the other two. Amber has been permanently paired with Miles for patrols of the packland borders, and eventually tensions flare between them sufficiently for true and harsh words to be shared... and our hero and heroine realize there was another perspective than the one they each had believed. There are awkward revelations that form a tipping point for Amber and Miles. How can they move forward? Will they find a way to fit into their new pack? Will their old Alpha remain a threat to them and their new pack? Her brother has lost patience with her acting out, but how will Amber overcome her traumas? The climax and ending are well done. I found Bully Wolf's Mate to be an enjoyable read.

Belonging

A short PNR about adapting to change and facing your giants. Amber and Miles has been bumping heads since childhood. What Amber thought was bullying; Miles thought he was simply teasing her the way boys tease girls all the time. Two don wolves trying to adjust to living amongst a new Pack.

Amber h8ted Miles with every fiber of her being. It wasn't until the two of them were paired together on patrol did they realize and succumb to their attraction.

It was a bumpy and challenging road but through h3llfire and water Amber and Mike's fought for their HEA.2 s Jeanette Wolfe316 6

Yuck, seriously

I didn't even finish. I couldn't stand it. The male lead was a complete a$$wipe to her, they get into a fight rolling on the ground and end up having sex. She had every reason to hate his guts for his constant bullying her and reminding her of the position and "use" (read rape) she had to endure in her other pack. He did absolutely bupkis to redeem himself and the fact that she just sexed him up, just whoosh, his crap treatment of her, reminding her that her brother never protected her from all the men who laid hands on her, and the fact that lots of men did lay hands on her even if it was against her will, no thanks gross. The jerk would be the last one I'd want to be intimate with so I couldn't enjoy the scene and I didn't the characters.2 s Victoria Golby731 6

Great read
I haven't read the previous books in this series but really enjoyed this one as a standalone book.
It starts in the past with Amber hating the way Miles, her brother's best friend, treats her. 
On moving to Silverdale they are both regarded with suspicion and made to work together in a patrol pair, to protect from their old pack of demon wolves.  Amber still distrusts him and his motives; Miles is trying to prove he just wants to protect her (as she's his best friend's sister). 
Then on patrol they start fighting while shifted and their tumbles cause an unexpected shift in feelings.
I loved the character building in this and the view that there are always two sides to a story.

I voluntarily received and reviewed an ARC of this book.1 Laura377 7

After reading Bully Wolf’s Mate, I got the impression that Miles was not the only one bulling Amber before they landed in Silverdale. With that first sentence it is glaringly obvious that I should have started with book 1 in the series, there were just too many holes without the previous books.

I found Bully Wolf’s Mate interesting and will probably be updating this review in the future after reding the first 5 books in the series. There were some editing mishaps but again the story line was interest and even with those edits I am sure I will have a new rating when I revisit this book. Because none of the references to past events made sense, they left gaps and more questions.

Really only a 2.5

I rated this, but it was hard. Spoilers:


Amber was insufferable. She was basically just petty rage personified. I didn’t even find any redemption. The bullying wasn’t even there unless you count how absolutely terrible Amber was to everyone in her pathway “family and loyalty” were so important, and yet, she wasn’t really giving either.

Even for a quick read, I wouldn’t recommend this one. There are strong heroines and then there is just toxic and mean heroines. That being said, I’ll still read more Mia Wolf as I d some of her other novellas Melissa K29 1 follower

This was crap. All of the characters are ahole morons. There's so much "snarling,growling", I don't know how anyone actually speaks. The H is annoying and aggressive, her brother is a DB the whole book, defending the ahole that bullied her, the bully supposedly treated her crap bc he loves her? They all should have died in the ending " conflict" that was so easily won. I added another from this series to read later but an deleting it. Definitely won't be reading this author again.

No one appreciates being bullied!

How do you even find the courage to go from day to day when abuse and bullying are all you can expect? Demon existence continues to plague the Silverdale community in this next book. Diane Werning2,060 8

There were a lot of typos, but you can still understand the story. It was a different type if shapeshifter book, but I really it. The action was easy to follow. BAG670 13
