Book Review: His Twisted Tail by Melanie James
Book Description
Calder Lorenson inherits one hell of a mess when he’s thrust into the limelight to fill the role of Alpha at Twisted Tail Pack. With treachery in the ranks, Calder quickly finds himself in over his head. If that wasn’t enough to deal with, Pack Law decrees that he must be mated.
With no time to spare, Calder does the only thing he can think of—asks for a little help from a famous matchmaker, Willow K. Sprout. Will Willow be able to locate his mate before the looming deadline? Or will Calder have to face the consequences set by pack law?
My Review
Daisy is new in town and bumps into Willow, literally. Willow is a supernatural matchmaker and after they have coffee together Willow gives Daisy her number and says to call her if she's interested in dating a shifter and finding her mate. Only problem is, Daisy is a human and hasn't ever been around shifters but having a shifter mate sounds wonderful to her when Willow explains that once a shifter finds their mate, they will do whatever it takes to make them happy. So of course Daisy calls her and Willow sets her off on a date. Only, there's a bit of a miscommunication or a bit of matchmaking going on thanks to Willow. So Calder and Daisy meet under comical circumstances.
Calder is the new Alpha of Twisted Tail Pack and not everyone in the pack is happy to have him there so there's a little drama there. Those trying to force him out have found an obscure pack law that decrees that he must be mated soon or lose the pack. So after talking with his friend, he calls Willow the matchmaker to help him find a mate.
After the initial meeting, these two get to know one another and Calder knows that she's his mate. Daisy has no problem giving Calder a chance since he's gorgeous and seems really nice and funny. There's a little drama from some of the pack members but it's sorted out pretty easily.
This was a fun, quick read. I really liked these two together.
I give this book 4 out of 5 stars.

DeleteWhat a fun and engaging review. I love the premise of Calder’s chaotic journey to find his mate, and the introduction of Willow as a supernatural matchmaker adds such a fun twist. The way Daisy and Calder’s relationship develops, with the mix of humor and drama, really kept me hooked. It’s a great balance of lighthearted moments and a bit of tension, especially with the pack dynamics. Plus, the idea of a shifter finding their mate is so intriguing—it adds that extra layer of excitement. Definitely sounds like a quick but enjoyable read! Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
