About this listen
"You are responsible for what you tame."
Yevhen. Forest ranger. Werewolf. Stifled by pack rules.
Radek. Foxy ginger brat. Changeling. Will avoid responsibility at all cost.
Banished from his pack for being gay, Yev has one last chance to redeem himself in the eyes of his family. He needs to stick to the rules for a year and bury his sexuality forever. Shouldn’t be so hard, since he can’t have a relationship with a human without revealing his werewolf nature.
That is, until one night, a drunk ginger brat points a rifle in his face.
Radek finished university months ago but thinking about the future is not on his agenda. Life would be great if he could just avoid any and all responsibilities.
He doesn’t want to be his mom’s caregiver, doesn’t want to take over the family fox farm, doesn’t want to return to his village, and doesn’t want a steady boyfriend.
His world turns upside down when he’s arrested by an infuriatingly attractive forest ranger. If that wasn’t bad enough, he’s now hunted by werewolves for discovering their drug-smuggling operation, and...he turned into a fox?
Helpless and wounded, he seeks sanctuary with the very man who got him into this mess, but what’s a fox to do? If there’s someone who can help him understand his changeling origin, it’s Yev. A werewolf.

The MCs were absolutely amazingly developed and matched! Their personalities and characteristics were very well thought out and you can't help loving them!
The setting. Well that's a total gem here. Not only don't you see a lot of books set in Europe, but the heaping portion of folklore and local touches here is an absolute treasure. Can't get enough of this series!
Narration: Loved the voice! A job very well done.
A great story in a unique setting

I don’t read many shifter books, but after this one, I might just do more.
Radek is a brat. An entitled brat who has an education but has done nothing with it. He’s coasting on family money, never questioning where it comes from or on whose back it is being earned. He meets Yev, a forest ranger, who arrests his bratty tush. Nothing comes of it, of course, and the two men go their separate ways. Radek isn’t satisfied, though, and he tries to take revenge. That also fails, but Yev challenges him to go to the family fox farm.
Now, here’s where the warnings come in. There is animal cruelty in this book and I found it difficult to cope with. I’m never sure with a Merikan book if I’m going to get a true happy ending, so I was on edge with regard to the abuse. The warnings also mention violence, bodily harm, and offensive language – all things that were present. Interestingly, I didn’t find the morally ambiguous characters as ambiguous as some of their others. Maybe I’m becoming inured to questionable behavior.
Radek is a changeling and his transformation is remarkable. I wanted an Ember of my own, if I’m being honest. And Yev being a werewolf made him empathetic to Radek. I liked how the two men grew to care about each other. I have to note that I didn’t realize foxes were canines. Given my affinity to dogs, I’m not surprised foxes have always held my attention.
This story is violent. And cute. And thought-provoking. And gut-churning. I had to work for it and I like those kinds of books. The book made me uncomfortable at times and I think that’s the sign of a really good read.
I’ll mention Wyatt Baker. He does a great job with K.A. Merikan books and I was glad to see he was helming this one. Overall, I’m glad I enjoyed the plunge. Can’t wait to see if there is a third book coming.

Radek is a spoiled young man who’s never had to make a hard decision in his life. And then he turns into a fox and suddenly everything is different. Yevhen is a werewolf who’s been making hard decisions his entire life due to his desire to stay with his pack. But once he meets Radek, Yev finally makes a decision that puts himself first. These two men have their damages and own personal demons they must conquer, but together they are incredible.
This is one of my favorite books of the year. I loved every moment of it. Radek and Yev are perfect for each other, and I loved everything about their relationship from the power dynamics to the tenderness and protectiveness. The sex scenes were fabulous and kinky with that edge of raw desire, rough sex, and D/s play that I enjoy reading. The plot was interesting and I truly became invested in what was going to happen to the fox farm and Radek and Yev’s relationship. The story was complicated, but it was easy to follow along because K.A. Merikan knows how to masterfully tell intricate stories in a beautiful way.
The audiobook was narrated by Wyatt Baker who did a great job. He had to do a range of voices from little foxes to big, burly werewolves, and all the other characters in between. He did a fantastic job with all the voices and it was easy to follow along in the audiobook. I loved his audio performance and really felt it enhanced the intensity of the action for me. The audiobook production was stellar and I highly enjoyed this book. I can’t recommend this book enough.
