booksafety 's review for:
Wolves Always Bite
by Lori Ames
Safety info, content warnings and tropes down below.
Audiobook review with updated safety information:
I read a digital ARC of this book a while back and enjoyed it a lot, so I applied for the audio ARC asap when I saw it. I think Kirt Graves took these characters and really elevated the story. He nailed Jeremy’s inquisitive and funny personality, and made me enjoy the book more this time around. Jeremy is definitely an over the top kinda character, so eyeball reading doesn’t always translate as well. I had forgotten how much I enjoy these easy, unique supernatural books.
Thankfully a second read also meant I could finally get a proper list of content warnings too, since I lost most of that info after my initial read. Original review below.
Thank you to NetGalley for this audio ARC.

Okay, this is next level frustrating. I wrote a review for this, detailed with all of my usual content warnings and book safety information. I somehow forgot to actually post the damn thing, and deleted my review when I started writing my next one. So here we are, very few thoughts left, and none of the usual info. Sorry.
What I do remember is that this book, just like book 1, was highly entertaining. I didn’t love it *as* much, simply because I didn’t dig the MCs as much, but it was still really good. I very much enjoy the magical world Lori has created, and I’m looking forward to the third book. I adore shifter books, and even though the shifter MC in this was just a ‘regular’ wolf shifter, the rest of the world it’s set in is very unique, and I can’t imagine confusing this series with any other paranormal series. It’s delightfully original somehow.

This was real… and werewolves were real too. But who in the world named their werewolf son Adrian?
"And is your werewolf jizz magical?" The truck jerked as Adrian jolted and rocked the steering wheel. The werewolf sputtered. "What did you just say?"
Jeremy blinked, seeming to come back to himself, and turned to me. "Are you growling right now?" I coughed and pretended to clear my throat. On the other side of the motorhome, Teague and Nelson exchanged cash.
“You’re sure he didn’t hurt you?” the wolf—Adrian—asked as he bounded over to me and licked my hand. “I’m sure.” I wanted to scratch behind his ears like I would a dog. Was that demeaning?
