Prince of Wolves [NOOK Book]

Only an alright read

Most reviews say this book is amazing but to me it was only alright. I'm not going to give you an eighth graders summary, but I'll give you some pros and cons. (Pros) The book had a pretty interesting story, and made you laugh quite often. Also its the type of book where you really want the main characters to be together. (Cons) There where two major things wrong with it, first is it was so long. Normally I really enjoy a long book cause it can keep me entertained longer, but this book just kept going and going. Three days had passed in the book and I was already over 300 pages in. Second is all the jokes, I know I said it was a pro, but after a while it gets old. I only say this because when the mood should have been tense the author just added to many jokes. Making whatever the problem was in the story seem like a joke, also it stops you from really getting to know your characters.
Don't get discouraged from my review, I may not have been overly fond of it, but others are. So hey you might be one of the other people who like it.

WOW! Right up there with Twilight!!! (Maybe a little better!)

I love this new series. I fell in love with Fane and Jacque. I love clean romance stories and this is one of the best that I have enjoyed in a while (although one of the friends can be a bit crude, but that is explained later on). I just finished the first two in this series and I am already ready to read them again. I am usually afraid to buy the 0.99 books, because so many of them have not been worthwhile, but I was so glad I invested in this one! I highly recommend this new author...............

The book was ok. The whole mating thing i felt kept the book going, however the writing style was very poor. All the characters seemed immature due to the use of sarcasum and jokes. When times should have been serious either Jaque or her two friends ruined the moment with sarcasum. In other words the characters were annoying. I recommend this book to younger teens. Overall the book could have had potential, but the character and writing style was poor.

Highly Recommended

Loved this book. It has every thing you could want in a book. A great love story , Suspense kept you at the edge of your seat and laughter. I laughed so hard at times my daughter would ask me what was so funny. I can't wait for the 2nd one ( Blood Rites ) to come out.

BookWhisperer Reviews Prince of Wolves

Prince of Wolves proved to be quite a challenge to rate. The this a paranormal romance through and through. It gave me some serious doubts in the first few chapters, due to the immediate romance between Jacque and Fane. Everything was abrupt and forced giving me an unsettling grasp for the story, and quite honestly a regretful misjudgment of what to expect. As the story unfolds the relationship falls into a suspenseful and intense love story that will keep readers guessing. By the end of this novel it was easy to overlook the difficult start, and crave more of this magical and possessive tale. The overall feel offers a serious intensity, but it is refreshing to experience the wit and humor of Jacque and her friends. The ability to wrap this novel into a neat and tightly woven story previews the ability of the debuting author. Upon concluding I was at war with myself on how to rate this incredible story. The story alone has the quality to warrant a five star, but in the end I settle on four stars because I felt that there is room for improvement. I see great things to come for this author, and can't wait to get my hands on the next book. I must recommend this book, but I want to give words of advice. If readers struggle with beginning, because if you give up your missing one hell of a story.

Great Soulmate Romance with Werewolves.

Prince of Wolves is about soulmates and fated love. If you happen to be a hopeless romantic who loves the idea of finding your one and true mate, then this is the book for you. This is actually a large ebook being 1000+ pages on Nook but I was so invested in the story and characters that I read it in a day and a half. Jaque is a girl in a small town that is spying on the new foreign exchange student that is moving in across the street. As soon as he arrives, Fane is immediately drawn to Jaque and can send thoughts to her. Jaque actually thinks she is having a mental breakdown but soon recongnizes the mental voice as Fane's. Fane is a foreign exchange student from Romania where he is next in line to be Alpha of the biggest pack of Grey werewolves in the world. He is drawn inexplicably to the small town and finds Jaque his one true mate.

Ms. Loftis has a great new voice in writing paranormal romance. I loved the interaction between Jaque and her two BFF's, Sally and Jen. The quips fly as well as the sarcastic wit. I laughed outloud several times at Jen and Jaque's outrageous personalities. I loved the fact that Jaque didn't swoon and just bend to the fate that was handed to her. Jaque is a spitfire and enjoys putting Fane in his place. Fane loves Jaque's spunk and the fact that she isn't afraid to speak her mind. The chemistry is awesome.

Fane was very careful when he choose his exhange town so that he wouldn't encroach on another pack's territory but apparently there is an unregistered grey pack in town. Since the ratio of Alpha Females is 1 to 30, Lucas, the local Alpha is trying to claim Jaque for himself. Lucas challenges Fane in a fight to the death. The action is great and the emotional turmoil for Jaque is easily identifiable to the reader. This book had the same feel of "Jessica guide to dating the dark side" being that Lucias and Fane are both princes from Romainia and come to find their soulmates. But Prince of Wolves develops a quicker romantic tie between Fane and Jaque because they are able to share thoughts and are immediately attracted to each other. I loved this book and consider it a great independent find. I am hoping for a follow up that includes the bonding ceremony and Jaque's life in Romania.

Peace

Overall the story line is good. Though majority of the book is a bit overdeveloped. The book goes into pointless details. Besides all of that it was a good read. I recommend it for people who are patience readers.

The book had an interesting storyline, a couple of memorable characters, and a few funny lines.

That said, the errors in grammar and syntax make it a difficult read unless you enjoy skimming and scanning a book, which I do not.

Also, though the conversation was cute at times, everyone spoke identically, even if they were an adult or from another country and English was a second language. How exactly did those foreigners end up sounding like teenagers so quickly when the story took place in such a short time period? Their speech patterns were an erratic mix of formal and informal that struck me as unrealistic and detracted from the story.

A lot of 'ya'll' words were thrown in for a 'Texan' effect. I was born and raised in Texas and I have used the term 'ya'll' all my life and I have to say that the author probably could have benefited from an editor actually from Texas. The overuse and misuse of that poor term made my head hurt. After a while I simply began substituting words and the story read better.

I would recommend this book with reservations.

I went on to buy the next 2 books in the series and they show definite improvement. Still the same problems as the first book, but not quite as hard to read. The author tells a good story...it is a pity that the mechanics relegate it to only average.

Not so much...

I really wanted to like this book. I love when humor is added by the author, but it was taken too far. It didn't matter how serious things got in the book, Jen and Sally were constantly putting their two cents in. Most of the time it was completely inappropriate and not at all realistic. I don't care how goofy you are in real life, it can be shut off when someone's life is in danger... and yet these two characters seemed to lack that switch. It just was overall really irritating and had me skipping chunks of the book towards the end, just to get through to the ending. I don't think I'll be buying any other books in this series.

Younger readers might enjoy...

My sister bought this book so I thought I'd give it a chance...I probably should have just skipped it. I normally take a liking to books that have similar plots and events filled with adventure, humor, fantasy, love etc. I found the opposite affect with this book. What turned me off through the entirety of this particular book was the very poor writing style. It's quality was nothing better than that of a pile of dirty clothes. Had it been executed properly, this review would be very different. A number of times I found myself actually laughing at some of the more serious scenes in the book. The rest of the time I just rolled my eyes at the absurdity of the scenes that I was not laughing at. The characters, while some were developed on the better side than the writing, just did not fully capture me. I liked the happy ending but that's as far as it goes on what I did like about the book. This book was probably intended for a group of younger readers. It might just be the fact that I'm a college student and I'm used to reading dull dry textbooks although every once in a blue moon I like to indulge in a few teen books.

good read

My only issue with this book is the story line went to fast. I would of liked to get to know the characters a little more before all the action. All in all i would read it again and have recommended it to others.

GREAT BUY

First of all, Jen, Sally, and Jacquelyn are freaking hilarious!!! They brought so much humorous sarcasm to the story. Gotta love spunky humans who will put a werewolf's proverbial tail between their legs. "Don't you growl at me White Fang, I'll have you neutered and de-clawed so fast you wouldn't know what hit you..."

Overall, fun book from start to finish. Exceptionally loveable characters and total douchebag villian. Complete with a happy ending. Highly recommended, good clean entertainment.

Enjoyable book

I enjoyed reading this book. I cant wait for the next one. Jen gets on my nerves a little bit. She has a one track mind that gets old fast. other than that I had a hard time putting it down.

BEST BOOK EVER

The main guy's lines were so romantic. I loved the "mate" and "made for each other" concept. It just made everything more exciting. The ending was just beautiful. YOU MUST READ THIS!!! If you dont,your missing out on the best 60 minutes of your life.

This trilogy was oh so much fun. As three friends get sucked into the world werewolves. It was a fast read with colorful characters.
I think it is quite safe for teenage readers. The third book is literally a cliff hanger so now I wait for the forth installment. If you just need a mindless fun fantasy this does fill the bill. Enjoy....

Question

Is this all three books.

:0 love it!

I am in love with Fane! He is that guy that makes you speechless even if he is like fify feet down the block n is walking into a weird store! I love evry character that came out of this book!
