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.

This one was way better than the first one (and I really liked that one). But this shifter story is very unique, not a cookie cutter like most of novels of this genre. I missed the folklore a bit, I wish it had a little bit more. I was glad to see Emil and Adam, although I would love if the four could share each other's secrets. Wyatt baker deliver a wonderful narration like always.

Awesome!

I found this this story between Yevhen and Radek to be gripping. I couldn’t stop listening and Baker’s narration just kept me wanting to listen more. This book is a great stand alone book. Merikan has a great gift for writing stories that will captivate readers.

Gut wrenching and heart stopping

Story: There are two main strenghts of this book for me - the characters and the setting.
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

Omg this is so cute. I really enjoyed book 1 but this is better. The plot and characters are much better.

I wasn’t sure for the first couple chapters as I really wasn’t a fan of Radek in book 1, or at the start here tbh. But I’m so glad I stuck with it. It very quickly gets into the story and its pace is fantastic. Like the first book it’s atmospheric and immersive.

Shifter books aren’t my usual go-to but I’ll read almost anything MM and this was such a nice change for me.
Ember has got to be one of the cutest characters I’ve ever read. There is some very sad parts to this especially with animal abuse but overall it’s extremely cosy and very cute 🥰

Utterly ADORABLE!

Well, K.A. Merikan has done it again. I enjoyed the first Folklore book, and so decided to dive in and try this one. Not at all what I was expecting. But that is typical for this writing duo.

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.
