    • quick review: a solid and engaging mystery in each book, the first book reads a little more police procedural than the second and third, but i loved both angles. it’s a slow burn emotional romance, never lingers on miscommunication but def still has to work through each character's issues, w fun werewolfy worldbuilding. big old chefs kiss.
