Synopsis 

My BFF and secret crush since high school, he’s the life of the party, with blue-almost-grey eyes that see into my soul and a muscular build that leaves all the co-eds drooling.

Who would have thought after Cassian dragged me to a party on my twenty-first birthday, I’d discover I have POWERS and almost destroy my entire college—only to be SAVED by the loner Griffin Langston?

Turns out he and Cassian are not only alpha werewolves, they’re both my mates—and each other’s enemies. Too bad Griffin is hell-bent on breaking our bond; he would be irresistible if he wasn’t so damn infuriating.

But our three-way mating bond becomes the least of our problems when some werewolves start losing their minds. What could be turning them feral?

Apparently, my mysterious birthright means only I can save the wolves.

But can I rescue them in time to save the human race?

Review

 I received Cursed Mates in return for an honest review. 

Finally free of the social life that my parents have kept my conscripted into escaping to NYU should be a dream. Bonus my crush and bestie will be by my side for the whole adventure. However, everything spirals out of control on my 21st birthday when the truth and past have come crushing back to me. Now the life I had is even more complicated but it does have its own perks. My crush Cassian is now my werewolf mate and he's not the only one his rival Griffin happens to be the other werewolf mate. Toss in a witch or two who don't like me things are just starting to get interesting. 

I liked Emily right from the start she's got issues but who doesn't in this day and age. I felt that I was able to connect with her as we both lost a parent the same exact way. It was almost a little creepy but I think it's what made it easier to love her more. I'm so conflicted on the boys I don't have a favorite I like Cassian because he clearly loves her and Griffin I'm so torn on. 

This is my first book by the author so I was very excited to check it out as she's been on my list for a while. Cursed Mates is a fast paced action packed story about Emily coming into her powers and discovering who she is. The author has a captivating writing style it was easy to lose all track of time and read the whole book in one sitting. I truly enjoyed every moment of Emily's story, I can't wait to dive into the next installment and see what happens next. Highly recommend for fans of young adult shifter books.
