While I was tempted with the picture of a unicorn, I thought it would be cliched PNR so I ignored it.
Recently, I saw my bookish friend Sandra, gave 5 stars to this book, so I decided I give it a try after all. I DO NOT REGRET IT. IT WAS AWESOME!
I do not remember when I had so much fun reading an urban fantasy novel. The richness of world-building reminded me of the 'Heartstrikers' series by Rachel Aaron while the craziness and randomness had The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy vibe. After all, who can say what is the correct reproductive cycle of gorgons or if angels have a head? Not me. Never seen them. xD
If you are looking for a crazy and different urban fantasy - give this book a try. You won't be disappointed. ...more

The characters needed more depth and it felt like a cliched back-to-small-town setting kind of cozy book.
But one thing that I rarely see and that thrilled me here, is that characters are very upfront about everything. You know when you are reading something, gnashing your teeth, and mumbling "Just tell her/him already." Not here. So 4 stars for that. :)
Overall, a cute and easy book, perfect for summer relaxation....more

Barely made it to 3 stars, and it's only thanks to the appearance of beloved side characters (maI do not know if I over-dosed, but this book was MEH.

I am happy that this is not goodbye, since Suzanne Wright likes to pop up with her previous characters in other books from this world.
The Phoenix Pack series and the whole shifter world by Suzanne Wright are turning out to be my favorite read this summer. They are light and funny.

Wild Hunger is one of my favorites so far, because of:
Leveling Up is a series that levels up with every sequel. The quirky crew gets bigger and bigger. And hence it gets more and more fun. ;)
I am so glad Leveling Up is a series that levels up with every sequel. The quirky crew gets bigger and bigger. And hence it gets more and more fun. ;)
I am so glad I grabbed the first book while it was free for Kindle and hence discovered this great new author. Looking forward to the sequel! Until then, I am going to go and explore the rest of her series. :)...more

Suzanne Wright's books are a comfortable mix of old and new.
We still have: - Similar types of alpha heroes and spunky heroines - Sexy domineering shiftSuzanne Wright's books are a comfortable mix of old and new.
We still have: - Similar types of alpha heroes and spunky heroines - Sexy domineering shifters - A lot of sexy times (that somehow she manages not to make repetitive) - Characters from previous books making an appearance - Humor with some kind of repetitive prank/joke
But also we have: - New setting (haunted house in the marsh) - New type of pairing -> human + shifter. I was wondering how the mating bond would work here.
I enjoy this series. very good paranormal romance. Great if you need something to relax....more
