ARC Review: Rejected (Shadow Beast Shifters #1) by Jaymin Eve



My father made a terrible mistake. One I’m left paying for.

As a wolf shifter growing up in a strong pack, I should be living my best life. But after my father tried to kill the alpha, I’m labeled an outcast, traitor, less than dirt.

When I can't take pack life any longer, I run, but apparently they don't like losing their punching bag. Torin, the alpha’s son, drags me back before my first shift... a shift that will reveal my true mate.

I never could have predicted who mine would be, but the moment my wolf looks upon him, I’m filled with hope for a brighter future.

After all, no one ever rejects their true mate, right?
Wrong. Very wrong.

When the wolves attack, my soul screams for vengeance, and somehow I touch the shadow world. Somehow I bring him to our lands.

The Shadow Beast. Our shifter god. The devil himself.

Turns out being rejected by my mate was only the beginning.

I wanted to love this story but it just felt like the author was playing up every possible trope in an annoying way. I was over hearing about how "woe is me" the heroine was and once she met the Shadow Beast I was just bored with the story in general. She is supposed to be a strong heroine, but I just found her whiny.
