Here we have Levy, a beta warlock/rabbit shifter mix, who is 22 and works in a bakery run by his very powerful family. He did not know he was a part of the Shifters of the Chinese Zodiac, and was put into college by his mother.
His unbeknownst to him fated mate, Eliot, who is a dog shifter, also a member of the Chinese Zodiac shifters, ends up working for the bakery while Levy is in school. He is actually a golden retriever shifter, so awwww.
There is also Jun, a professor at the school and a snake shifter in charge of all the Zodiac Shifters.
Due to what Levy is, otherworldly beings want him. Jun and Eliot actually want to protect him, but due to what happened with a werewolf, Levy does not trust alphas. Rightly so.
While this was advertised as being dark, this was more dark-lite. There was some killing and murdering, but it was not that bad. Also, this should have been a mmm. I felt more sexual chemistry between Levy and Jun and Eliot and Jun than I did when it was just Levy and Eliot.
Just as a heads up for future readers, this was single POV until around chapter 12, then all of a sudden, it became a dual POV book. That was odd and not expected.
All in all, the whole storyline about how the Zodiac animals were all shifters and connected was cool.
