Shift Out of Luck

Review

Book two in the Brimstone Inc series takes us deeper into the dynamic between the couple we met in book one, now navigating both their marriage and the complicated politics of pack life. What I loved about this installment was how it really leaned into the challenges of merging two powerful alphas—both in their personal relationship and in their leadership roles. Going into the story, I assumed one of them would naturally slip into a beta role to balance things out, but that wasn’t the case at all. Instead, the author crafted an intriguing exploration of what it means for two alphas to lead side by side, and the tension of figuring out how that could possibly work drove much of the plot in a really compelling way.

The mix of romance, spice, and drama kept me hooked the entire time. Watching them fight, stumble, and ultimately push toward compromise and growth made their journey feel realistic and satisfying, while still delivering all the supernatural intrigue and heat the series promises. I genuinely enjoyed how their struggles felt as important to the story as the romance itself, and I can’t wait to see how things evolve in book three. This series continues to balance heartfelt relationships with pack politics in a way that makes me eager to keep turning the pages.
