About this listen

"They say I'm their princess! Who are they kidding? I'm just Silver Springs Resident Orphan."

Even in Silver Springs, a town full of paranormal abnormalities, Lupine, the town's resident orphan has never felt like she belonged.

Overworked, stressed, hair flying everywhere, Lupine is constantly on the move working with the unique children in the Silver Spring's Orphanage. The Silver Springs human population regularly grumble to her about their parenting challenges.

They have no idea! They should try being responsible for twenty or so paranormal children. The orphanage is pure mayhem. The witches are hiding Lupine's keys, the half-angels keep levitating up to the roof and the shifters are running rogue.

When the mafia come to town, will she finally find her home among the wolves?

Lupine is a paranormal reverse harem romance. It's part of the Silver Springs shared universe.

Hmm

FMC is pretty obstinate and does not like to communicate purposely with the guys. I am not sure a relationship would work at all with someone that doesn’t bend. Little action in the end. Many fade to black scenes. It’s a book to pass the time as a stand-alone.

Wonderful Characters! Great World Building!

This is the third book in the Spell Library, a multi authors Series. This short small town paranormal RH romance is fun, entertaining, fast paced, sexy, and suspenseful. I loved the characters. Lupine is wonderful, lovely, and caring. Her mafia wolf shifters are sexy, caring, and protective. The kids are cute! The supporting characters are great. The world building is original, intriguing and captivating. Joanna Wild did a great job with the narration. I enjoyed it.

Baskerville Book Reviews

Much like my previous review of the story Candela, Lupine is a standalone book in a series. I bring this up because they’re apparently part of the same literary universe, with numerous different authors. It’s an interesting concept for sure and now that I’m aware of it, I can see the similarities.

Lupine was more story than smut and that was a bit of a disappointment. While I enjoyed the story, I really felt like I was reading several chapters into a novel. I was able to understand what was going on, but I felt as if I was missing a lot of details and the story ended as soon as it got exciting. This being the third book in the series, this makes total sense.

The biggest thing that annoys me about Lupine, Candela, and the whole literary universe is that not every book seems to get the audiobook treatment. There are 21 books listed in the Spell Library series on Audible and only six of them have audiobooks. But it’s not the first six. I’d like to get the full story and listen to them in order, but I can’t and I’m not a fan of reading/listening to books in multiple formats. Even if I stick to the Lupine novels (of which there appear to be 4), only the first 2 have audiobooks and I have no way of telling if the other 2 will receive the same treatment.

While on the topic of the audio narration, the audio recording features numerous examples of repeated dialogue. The narrator did an excellent job.

I realize this review might sound a little all over the place. But so are my feelings for this novel. I enjoyed it, sure. But the abrupt ending and feeling like I’m left in the middle of a novel are a bit annoying. I think if you’re considering this story, you should consider looking into all 4 Lupine novels or don’t bother.

Zany story

I loved it. Lupine trying to round up all those orphans is hilarious, sort of like herding cats, but they are fox cub shifters, little witches, and more. When the mafia guys, who aren't what they seem, show up and add themselves into the household the story gets funnier, and steamier.

Lupine has a backbone of steel and a heart of gold. This is a terrific poly/why choose tale so you may want to wear your earbuds if anyone else is in the room unless you want to raise their temperature too.

Likable Characters

Lupine is a very likable character who has amazing chemistry with her men. This is a steamy, funny and an amazing read that is well written with a fantastic plot. Each character is interesting and unique. The narrator is easy to understand and great to listen to.

Fantastic!

This is the first book by this author that I have read, and I really enjoyed it. I love Lupine and how she is willing to do everything she can for the orphans in her care. Meeting the guys moving in across the street makes for an interesting story. It has hilarity, sexiness, and an amazing story overall. The narrator does an amazing job of bringing these characters to life and I truly enjoyed listening to it. I cannot wait to see where the next book in this series takes me.

A cute Silver Springs addition

This was an enjoyable read, but it’s less rom and less com than the other Silver Springs library books I’ve read. It’s not quite as light hearted as the others and definitely not as silly, which isn’t a bad thing if you’re looking for a cute fated mates quickie story with minimal steam, a dose of mystery, and a comfortable/familiar world.
I like Lupine and her mates, but the children at the orphanage kind of outshined her mates pretty consistently; they weren’t as dynamic or developed. I would’ve loved to know more about them individually and the whole syndicate story. Lupine makes a lot of crappy decisions for the sake of keeping control of her life and not letting men boss her around, but also listens to “the creepy twins” 😅 But her heart is in the right place, she really cares about the kids and the orphanage as a whole which is super sweet.
The narration for this one was good too! There were a few spots where lines were repeated that I don’t know if they were supposed to be read as internal dialogue, pause, said dialogue or if they just accidentally repeated themselves, but it was a little jarring from the story. Thankfully it only happened a handful of times, mostly towards the beginning. Otherwise I enjoyed the narrators voice and the story was a nice quick listen.

Fun listen to keep me company while I work!

“Anything is possible in Silver Springs.” —Lupine

I’m new to this world, having only read Violet, Wynter, Calluna’s Christmas short, and Candela … but yes, I do know that much is true.

I take an instant liking to Lupine, she seems very down to earth and relatable. This installment is fun, IMO because it’s mainly set in an orphanage. The kids are all different types of supernaturals and various ages and it really adds a fun dynamic. I’d love to read more in this world, and particularly in Lupine’s world.

A fun, fast read that spiced up a few hours of my work day very nicely.

4 stars.
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️


Note:
The audio performance is perfect! This narrator is great; hope to listen to more from her.

Where’s the romance

I really liked this RH book. It's full of shifter wolves which is always a plus! The plot moves fast and I did struggle to keep up with some of it. I wish there would have been more romance between the characters and it didn't feel so rushed, it seemed more like a subplot. I did like the character dynamics and how they interacted with each other. All in all, I'm glad I read the book - just wish there was more romance.

great story

I enjoyed the story of Lupine and her mates. The children at the orphanage had all different personalities which I enjoyed. Lupines mates meet when one brings back Edmond. The Narrator did an excellent job.
