"I was not really listening to what was going on in 1979. A lot of popular music wasn’t very good. There was a lot of punk hangover and a lot of it was a bit… whatever. At that point, Wire were stratospheric; it wasn’t really important to listen to what other people were doing. We didn’t have anything to do with Gang of Four. They were coming from a very different place. We studiously ignored Joy Division because they seemed a little too derivative of us. Maybe that seems like arrogance in hindsight but that’s how it felt at the time. Bert Jansch’s Avocet was very off compared to what was going on in music in the late ’70s. I knew about him when I was in school because he was in Pentangle. The whole thing with music fans in the late ’60s was all about: “Are you Jimi or Eric?” Then there was a group of us who were a bit cooler who said: “Are you Bert or John?” Which meant John Renbourn, the other guitarist in Pentangle. The kind of people who liked Jimi Hendrix would sit in their room playing solos and making a guitar face."

Gabai is a shifter who owns a BDSM club, somebody has been targeting a room that's special to him so he asks for help from the alpha of his local wolf pack. She sends her second in command Asher and a love story is born.


This story considering what it contains is a very gentle love story about learning to trust each other and not cross boundaries.


Some of Asher's heartbreak is absolutely horrific and the way he has been treated in his past is disgusting! Nobody deserves that treatment nobody! I am glad to say things do pick up for him though and he is able to learn to trust people which had me going woohoo to myself.


I know I keep saying it but it is a very gentle story, don't get me wrong there are sex scenes involved and a bit of the BDSM lifestyle is mentioned, but I personally didn't feel uncomfortable with anything that was written. I enjoyed that the authors switched between the characters' perspectives so you knew what each emotion the main characters were going through.


Recommended by me. An intriguing read 4/5
