Wolfbane (Wolfbane Series Book 1) by Celia Hart – Review by Santana Hicks

Wolfbane by Celia Hart
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Jasmine is what is known as a good girl. She follows all the rules and doesn’t take any risks. Growing up with religious strict parents will do that to you. She believes that she has to remain pure for her fated mate. That is until she meets Blake, the future Alpha.

Blake’s mate died and he had no interest in pursuing anything until Jasmine came along. They know nothing can happen between them but they can’t help but feel attraction for each other. Jasmine is the first girl that Blake has felt comfortable with since his mate passed away. Blake makes Jasmine want to take risks and start exploring some physical aspects she has never done before.

Then along came Jasmine’s fated mate, Luke, who is her bestfriends boyfriend. Which makes things so much more complicated. Once her best friend, Lucy, finds out, she throws a tantrum and turns against Jasmine. Luke doesn’t know what to do and has no backbone when it comes to Lucy. Even though Luke is not Lucy’s fated mate, she vowed to never lose him and will do anything to keep him. Everyone all of a sudden has a choice to make. The obvious choices are no longer that obvious as time goes on.

I liked Jasmine and Blake and found myself rooting for them even though they were not fated mates. I disliked Luke and hated Lucy. Lucy was a crappy friend. She constantly tried to get Jasmine to do things she didn’t want to do and called her a prude when she disagreed with her. All in all Lucy was just a crappy and selfish person in general.

The characters themselves didn’t seem to have much depth to them in my opinion. I feel like the author was just trying to hit as many tropes as possible. I am hoping as the series continues, the characters will become more personable.
