The Wolf Prince's Mate

Marked Beneath the Moon #2

by Lola Glass

I accidentally screwed the Alpha’s brother—and not the one whose wolf is determined I’m his mate.

It’s caused just as many problems as you would think.

And now I have to pick a mate. Fast.

Hunter won’t be free from his wolf's obsession with me until I seal a mate bond with someone else.

But that would require having feelings for someone else.

It doesn’t help that I have a stalker threatening me, either.

Despite the mess my life is, I have to choose a mate… but I’m already falling in love with the wolf prince I accidentally slept with.

And when he starts spiraling into an obsession that's even bigger and more possessive than his brother's, there's no way around the complete and utter chaos.

At this point, I'm just hoping we all survive.

I loved book one, so I was excited for this, but it just didn’t hit as hard. Nova and Clay were still likable and the chaos was fun, but the romance didn’t have the same spark and some parts felt rushed. Not bad, just not as strong as the first.

Lola I know you said this book nearly killed you but girl???! This is my favorite of your most recent books by a long shot! 4.5 🌟 for cuteness and I adored the characters. I knew I was going to love Clay 😍

Huge thanks to Lola for this eARC!

Gobbling up this entire series in two days.

The banter was fun, the story entertaining and although Nova wasn’t my favorite heroine from the three books, she made so much sense with Clay ♥️

OMG. I loved the first book but this book blew me away. I absolutely loved Clay and Nora. Their connection was undeniable and I loved the journey they took to taming his wolf and becoming mates. There was a lot of action going on and was here for it. This series is so much different than I thought it would be and I love every minute. I can’t wait to read Hunter’s book next.

This man is so hot. His wolf is dangerous but obsessed with Nova and Clay as a human is funny, likeable and possessive.

This book was such a fun read and I finished it within a few hours. I love Lola Glass writing style and her ideas. The story was interesting with a lot of humour and wolf action. I love a cliche shifter romance with a dangerous male and a shy but brave female.
Nova and Clay were heartwarming together. The saying „opposites attract“ matches them perfectly. Their banter was funny and I really liked their dialogue. The tension was chefs kiss and the smut was hot.
The pages just flew by while reading and I laughed a lot. This book is a guarantee for a fun and carefree time. Thumbs up, well done Lola Glass.

The Wolf Prince’s Mate by Lola Glass is OUT TODAY!!!
It is book two in her Marked Beneath the Moon series.
This is the story of Nova and Clay. They definitely have obstacles standing in the way of them being together but I loved reading about them getting through them. This is only the second book where I felt a connection with not only the human MCs but their wolves too. Their wolves brought me to tears, happy tears. I don’t want to say anything to spoil their story but if you’re a fan of wolf shifters, mates, and friends to lovers than you will love this book like I did. And while you don’t necessarily have to read book one, The Wolf King’s Mate, I definitely recommend it because it gives you backstory that will make this book even better!
Another Lola Glass book read, another Lola Glass book loved! I don’t know if book three is going to be a full book or a novella but either way I’m looking forward to whatever comes next from Lola!

Whew, what a ride!

‘The Wolf Prince’s Mate’ was complex, engaging, and even raw, at times. Author Lola Glass has her writer’s hooks firmly embedded in this reader’s imagination. Clay and Nova’s story was so good, I read it it one sitting. Their HEA was hard won, and well deserved. I cannot wait for Hunter and Olive’s story!

Lola Glass delivers a captivating sequel in The Wolf Prince's Mate, the second installment of the Marked Beneath the Moon series. This book takes readers on a thrilling journey of romance, intrigue, and shapeshifter drama. Clay, the Savage brother, shines as a compelling character, balancing strength and vulnerability. The chemistry between the protagonists is electric, and the spice is seamlessly woven into the storyline, enhancing the pace and emotional depth. With its engaging plot and well-crafted characters, this book is a must-read for fans of paranormal romance.

Clay and Nova’s story was absolutely beautiful! I particularly enjoyed the banter and humour between the characters ( and ofc Clay being an overly protective and possessive man!!). I really enjoyed the multiple POVs and getting to know the characters in a lot more depth. Also I absolutely loved that Nova was a tattoo artist and that all the female characters were super independent!

I do think there shouldn’t have been as much of Olive’s life story as there was in this book (maybe it’s just me!).

Okay, once again I loved this. Apparently I’m into werewolf stories, who knew. Nova and Clay are awesome and I was thoroughly entertained by this story. I won’t lie I liked the first one a bit better but still, amazing.

Another quick, fun werewolf book. Clay was great, even if a bit dense, and maybe his story wrapped up a little too neatly at the end, but it is what it is. Nova was a solid female lead, and their dynamic totally worked—her submissive wolf to Clay’s scarred one. The pacing was spot on. Overall, a fun addition to the series.

[Marissa · Rating 5 out of 5]

“Alright, Alexa, add Clay Savage to my list of Book Boyfriends” 👏😍

Lola Glass is my go-to author to read when I need a mood boost or something to cozy up with. I would recommend all of her work, especially “Wildwood” and “Survival of the Mated.” Her books, unless specified as a series, can be read as interconnected standalones (so together or even just one) within universes that I am calling the “Glass-iverse.”
This book played out like a soap opera, and I was tuned IN! This is the first sentence of the synopsis: “I accidentally screwed the Alpha’s brother—and not the one whose wolf is determined I’m his mate.” When I read that, the first thing that came out was, “GIRL 💅👁️👁️” then after a brief moment to process, it turned to, “HOW.” I was immediately invested. When I was finally realizing how, all I could say was, “ah, yeah, I get it now,” and immediately returned to my televised reading to watch the drama continue to unfold (before I go further, she did not cheat).
“The Wolf Prince’s Mate” is book two in the paranormal romance series, “Marked Beneath the Moon”. It takes place about fifteen months after the events of “Wolf King’s Mate” and stars the female-born werewolf, Nova. Amidst the drama that is Nova’s romantic life, her stalker has returned with a vengeance, leaving gruesome art in her car with no means of tracking him as he gets bolder in his attempts to take her. Although some events may be considered gritty, including: a stalker, kidnapping, and a car crash, I would not identify it as “dark romance.” Also, it does not include a trigger warning page. It is an open-door romance with 🌶🌶🌶 of spice (in my opinion), but this book is not a “why-choose” novel or a love triangle. Hunter’s wolf has claimed Nova, but Hunter the human is not interested in her. Clay is interested in Nova, and Nova (despite resisting) is interested in Clay.
When I said I was tuned in, I meant it. If I weren’t reading the words myself, I could have been convinced it was a daydream or a movie with how vivid the book was (in particular, emotionally). The pacing for the events of the book is well done and very reasonable. The pacing when everything falls apart? Chef's kiss 👌. I was deep in my feelings when Clay left. I felt like a spectator watching these events unfold, and it hurt to watch when Nova woke up alone (not a spoiler). I almost cried when Clay said, “Please,” and he cried. I did a little pout to see how disheveled he became, and proud to see Nova become so strong and resolute in herself and her plans.
The epilogue made me cackle. I had a feeling I knew who the two characters would be in the next book, and when THAT part hit, I felt vindicated. I kicked my feet like a 5-year-old. When I read Clay say the equivalent of, “so that happened, anyway…” I cackled.
All in all, I loved the book. It was AH-MAZING. This book has successfully found its way into my Top 5 books in the Glass-iverse, and I am so ready to read it again!!.

I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

[Nelia ~ trixeyverse · Rating 4 out of 5]

The Wolf’s Prince’s Mate, the second book in the “Marked Beneath the Moon Series,” is yet another testament to Lola Glass’s talent for delivering cozy, feel-good romances. She’s the ultimate “drop everything and read” author for me, the kind whose books instantly draw you in and wrap you in the warmth of her storytelling. Her romances strike the perfect balance—never too complex, yet deeply compelling—and I always find myself wholeheartedly invested in her characters and their journeys.

From the moment I read the blurb, I was captivated, and let me tell you, this book does not disappoint. If you’re craving a story brimming with both emotional depth and sizzling chemistry, you’ll find it here. The relationship between Nova and Clay is electrifying, with a connection that leaps off the page and grabs hold of your heart. Their chemistry is nothing short of scorching, delivering plenty of spice while exploring the emotional and physical ties that bind them together.

Right from the start, I could feel the connection between Clay and Nova. Their banter had a sweetness that made their relationship all the more endearing, and the way they played off each other kept me grinning from ear to ear. The story takes things up a notch with a fascinating twist involving Clay’s wolf. This element had me completely hooked, as I could feel every ounce of emotion Clay experienced in his interactions with his wolf. Adding Nova’s gentle and loving wolf into the mix made the dynamic even more enchanting—it truly couldn’t have been better.

This book is a beautifully woven tale of perseverance and emotional growth, interspersed with moments of heartbreak and healing. And while the romantic connection is the heart of the story, it also delivers a thrilling array of elements that keep you on the edge of your seat. From the looming threats and suspenseful stalker subplot to the heartfelt reunions and second chances, there’s never a dull moment. Themes of guilt, regret, fear, and confusion are skillfully explored, adding layers of depth to the narrative. Oh, and let’s not forget the steamy scenes—they’re just the cherry on top of an already phenomenal story.

Overall, *The Wolf’s Prince’s Mate* is a rollercoaster of emotions with a perfect blend of romance, intrigue, and spice. It’s a story that leaves you feeling hopeful, uplifted, and thoroughly satisfied. If you’re a fan of Lola Glass or simply love paranormal romance with heart and heat, this book is an absolute must-read.

3. 5 stars

while i was hooked while reading this book and finished it in pretty much one sitting, it wasn't a perfect read. here's what worked for me and what didn't:

WARNING: SPOILERS BELOW

what i liked:

- no manwhore hero here. clay was celibate and sought out company every couple years. and nova was very much experienced. i loved that.

- om drama. i'm not normally for ow/om drama but when H is pushing h away and claiming he can't ever properly mate with her?? hell yeah give me alllll the om drama and make him jealous!! nova went on dates + kissed one om while trying to find herself a mate. the H at this time was NOT offering her that and only had friends with benefit in mind.

- clay was not a jerk to nova. they started out as sort-of friends and it developed from here. compared to the first book in series (which i DNF'd) that had H barely spending any time with h.

- i'm glad hunter was involved in helping find nova a mate and was a lil too efficient in setting up those dates for her, lol. that helped in showing her how much he did NOT want to mate with nova.

what i didn't like:
- too much time spent on hunter's wolf thing and the almost love triangle thing between the hero, heroine, and hero's brother. i personally would have wanted that wrapped up sooner than it actually did. it was starting to hurt MY feelings that way H (clay) kept pushing her away. i get his reasoning and the only reason it didn't upset me more was that it was not malicious at all and he was truly scared for her life and thought he was protecting her. but it would've been nice to see some balls on him and effort on his end too, ya know?!

- while it helped that hunter was adamantly against mating with nova despite his wolf thinking she's his mate, i did NOT want to hear how he would've helped her out with her heat if he had known how much pain she actually was each time. i'm going to assume by "help her out" he only meant let her spend heat with someone else.

- there was no explanation on how/why TWO wolfs are able to claim the same person as their mate. the mate bond does not seem that special imo in this universe.

- hunter's mate is nova's TWIN sister. i will need convincing that she is not second best bc the wolf couldn't get the first sister. i'm hoping them being twins had the wolf confused or something. lola glass did say it won't be as drama filled so fingers crossed!

[Rebel · Rating 5 out of 5]

Ohhh my gosh, The Wolf Prince’s Mate by Lola Glass had me absolutely feral from page one. You know when you can feel the chaos brewing in the first few chapters and you’re just grinning like a maniac because you know you’re about to watch a beautiful disaster unfold? Yeah. That was me the whole time. And let me tell you, it was glorious.

From my very human, deeply nosy, and terrible-at-life-choices heart, this book hit all the right spots. Accidentally sleeping with the wrong wolf? Check. Forbidden feelings blooming where they absolutely shouldn’t? Double check. A mate bond hanging over everyone's heads like a ticking time bomb while a stalker lurks in the background? Triple, messy, delightful check.

I was so in this poor girl's shoes. The pressure to choose a mate when your heart is already tangled up with the one guy you're not supposed to want?? Ugh. It's the exact kind of romantic disaster I live for. Watching her try to fight what was so clearly inevitable (because, hello, Hunter is basically irresistible) was both hilarious and painful. I wanted to shake her and hug her at the same time.

And Hunter. Sweet, obsessive, possessive Hunter. I did not expect to love him as hard as I did. His spiral into absolutely unhinged, ride-or-die obsession? Chef’s kiss. I was on the edge of my seat, eating it all up like it was the last dessert at a buffet. (And if loving a borderline-crazy wolf prince is wrong, I don’t wanna be right.)

But what really got me? The heart underneath all the heat and chaos. Yes, it's spicy (thank you, Lola Glass, you magician), but it’s also about trust, about choosing love even when it’s messy and terrifying and so not what you planned for. The tension, the chemistry, the "oh my god, are they finally going to admit they’re obsessed with each other??" moments—it was just everything I needed.

Bottom line: If you're like me and you love your romance wild, a little dangerous, and dripping with longing and forbidden feels, The Wolf Prince’s Mate is your next guilty pleasure. (And trust me, you won’t even feel guilty about it because it’s that damn good.)

Already counting down until I can dive into more of this deliciously chaotic world! 🐺🔥.

[Adrienne · Rating 5 out of 5]

Loving this new series by Lola Glass and have been eating them up as soon as they are released! This one was my favorite in the series so far as well as Nova and Clay being my favorite couple.

FMC Nova has a stalker, an estranged twin, and an unwanted wolf who is trying to claim her. To add more drama to things, she sleeps with his brother, MMC Clay. She is Clay’s tattoo artist and they have been friends, and I love that that is how their relationship started.

Clay is the nice one out of the Savage brothers and in contrast his wolf is the scariest and he believes his wolf to be insane due to an incident from their past. He will not let himself shift because he is so worried about his wolf hurting one of his brothers or someone else that he cares about.

I was onboard with both the rejected mate theme and the brief love triangle. They were both resolved very satisfactorily in a way that moved the plot along nicely and made sense. I also really like the found family theme in this series and how the pack takes care of their own, whether biological family or new members.

Nova and Clay had some things in common that I think helped bond them together and make them be compassionate with one another, the main thing being that both of their fathers had pitted them against their siblings in different ways, which had been affecting them all for years. We saw character growth and resolution here and it was beautiful. I love how much healing happened in this book. Healing from new trauma, healing from old trauma, healing relationships, and healing cancer.

I love how unendingly patient these two are with each other and how they like each other so much as friends that they easily come around to being able to communicate so well with one another. And they have amazing chemistry together! This is a great read and I cannot wait to read book #3 which is about Hunter and Olive.

And I have to make a mention of the Alpha Enzo and his gift baskets LOL

[Linzi · Rating 5 out of 5]

Nova enters the Savage Pack through her bond with Aspen, another rare female werewolf. She isn’t looking for a mate, but after meeting the Alpha brothers, her walls start to crack. I’ll admit, I was initially nervous this might turn into a dramatic love triangle with heartbreak and betrayal. Thankfully, while there’s tension and emotional turmoil between the wolves, the human choices are clear, respectful, and satisfying.

One of the most rewarding elements of this story is the friends to lovers dynamic. Nova and Clay begin with a deep, trusting friendship that they both lean on heavily, especially as the world around them starts to spiral. That bond becomes the foundation for everything else, and it makes the eventual shift into romance feel natural and earned. It also raises the emotional stakes in the best way.

This book definitely delivers on the spice. Lola Glass writes love stories full of heart and healing, but she never skimps on the passion. The chemistry between Nova and Clay is scorching, and their connection hits on both the emotional and physical fronts.

While the stalker subplot exists, it remains a background thread. Honestly, I was fine with that. The heart of the story is in the characters and their healing journeys. Nova’s occasional habit of misinterpreting situations did frustrate me at times, but in the context of her trauma, it’s understandable. Her struggle to believe she’s worthy of love, and her eventual growth into self-acceptance, is beautifully done. Clay’s development is equally powerful as he begins to unpack his own trauma. Watching them face it together was moving and meaningful.

And then there’s Oli. Completely unexpected, but a great surprise. I’m really excited to see where her story goes in future installments.

Nova is a born female werewolf as well as awesome tattoo artist. Now, that it is known what she is and Hunter’s wolf decided that Nova was his. However, Hunter doesn’t want a mate, so when it is time for Nova to go into heat, Hunter takes him to his mansion and he stays in his rooms, and she suffers through it in the basement. Seeing her go through that, made me want to cry and to yell at Hunter. Clay is very friendly with Nova and calls her Gorgeous. Nova has a group of protective bodyguards when she leaves the compound that belongs to King Enzo and his brother’s (the Princes). Her heat starts early which forces Clay to take her away, but it comes on even faster and things go crazy for them. Her heat causes Clay’s rut and things get totally steamy quickly as Clay finds out exactly what she goes through during her heat, which the pain, etc. is getting worse. I felt so bad. Aspen & Enzo are funny and adorable together (& annoying), Fletcher, Aspen’s brother is with Sydney, although they aren’t mated yet. Trying to find a way for Hunter to get his wolf to stop being possessive of Nova through the book is crazy and weird. I love how Nova tries to deal with it all. She is an inspiration on how to deal with the craziness of the sitch. I always thought Clay was hot, (& Hunter) but in this book he blew me away. We find out so much about Clay, his past and Nova’s too. Just wow. I cried, laughed, needed the AC, for the freaking out plus the steam. Nova also has a stalker that was thought to have gone away- but nope. That was scary! Egads, I felt sick at that section. I love how Nova handles Clay’s wolf, whom everyone else is afraid of. The book was awesome and I can’t wait for Hunter’s.

Friendship and more
He's worried his wolf is insane

Another fantastic, spicy romantasy by Lola Glass; full of drama, the hint of a love triangle, wonderful characters with brilliant chemistry, family, friendships, sexy wolf shifters, overly protective alphas, heaps of humor, banter and spice💖. Another that I couldn't put down and would strongly recommend.

Hunter had found Aspen (in The Wolf King's Mate) but she wasn't the wolf he'd sensed in the woods and that his wolf was hunting. But after realising that Nova is the one, his wolf claimed her but he didn’t want the bond so is in a difficult position. But while he's away from the Lodge, she needs help and his brother Clay realises she's been hiding her pain.

Clay is the third triplet, but the brothers all worry about his wolf being insane so he's sure that he can't get attached to anyone. But Nova has a stalker and Clay just wants to ensure his friend stays safe. His feelings for the woman his brother's wolf has claimed are getting stronger, but his own wolf is too violent for him to risk being near her.

Nova is a wonderful character, seeing Clay's wolf when others don't. She knows she needs to find a mate to get Hunter's wolf to back off and realises that her feelings for Clay go beyond friendship, but can she convince him that his wolf isn't a danger to her?

OMG WHERE DO I START! This book was fantastic, and I could not put it down. After I read it, YES, I had to go back and read it again and I still want more. I am not a love triangle kind of girl. I also did not read the preview of this book before I started it, so I was a little nervous we were going to go into a love triangle. NO, it was so well written that even though there was an issue with the brothers I did not get the lover triangle feels at all. I will also say I am not a big fan of friends to lovers but I do not feel this was that either. Let's start off with I love this series and these characters. This book took off and I could not stop. I felt the connection between Clay and Nova instantly. I loved the banter between the two it was so sweet. This twist with Clay's wolf had me so intrigued and I felt every moment of emotions he had with his wolf. Then you add in Nova's sweet wolf it could not get any better. This entire book is based on having hope and loving people through their fears. I do not want to get into this much and spoil it for you but the book was fantastic and I could talk and write on it for hours. Every book I read by Lola Glass just keeps getting better and better and I am not going to survive if she ever stops writing.

The Wolf Prince’s Mate is the second book in the author’s Marked Beneath the Moon series and another sizzling story.
In this one Savage brother Hunter has a wolf who insists female pack member Nova is his. Unfortunately for him his human side disagrees as does Nova’s.
The only way to solve the problem is for Nova to mate a different male and therein lies her problem, because she really likes his brother Clay who is a good friend to her.
After helping Nova out in an emergency heat situation that almost sends Hunter ballistic, Nova has a heart to heart with Hunter’s wolf and its agreed… she needs to mate, just not him, so dating it is.
Clay, after that heat intervention can no longer deny to himself that Nova means more to him than a friend, not realizing Nova feels the same.
Loved the writing and characters while enjoying the journey Clay and Nova took towards a mate bond once they communicated those feelings and quit denying they REAllY wanted one, with each other despite the possibility that Clay’s insane, violent wolf might hurt Nova, and she doesn’t believe he would.
With danger, spice, emotion, action, and a stalker that adds a bit of mystery keeping the story rolling at a fast pace the reader will be entertained all the way to its very satisfying HEA.

Okay, so I thought I would hate this. Even after reading the description (clearly I didn't pay enough attention) I thought this would be Nova/Hunter so I was very shocked and uneasy finding out this was Nova/Clay. I'm a huge fated mates fan, so I was very much rooting for Hunter on principle. But, I think Lola took a risk here and it absolutely paid off. She nailed the rejected mates dynamic. AND going from Hunter to Clay could have been a disaster (brothers?!) but it was still done so well, I'm actually shocked.

Clay is amazing. He's caring and I adored the friends to lovers journey. There was still this huge conflict and tension with Hunter and Nova's need to find a mate, but I adored how Clay was always on Nova's side. As a friend and as feelings progressed into so much more. They were so cute together - their chemistry felt so natural. I enjoyed Nova as well, she's tough and has gone through a lot in her life. She takes care of herself, but is still kind and such a good friend.

Another thing I appreciated in the writing is that even though Hunter's wolf tried to claim Nova, that doesn't in any way discount her connection with Clay. With female wolves being so rare in this world, we can see that the whole fated mates thing is seemingly a bit more flexible? Clay's wolf 100% claimed her, and became way more obsessed with her than Hunter's ever was.

LOVE IT!!

H: Clay (Beta) Brother of the Enzo and Hunter
h: Nova
I have to be honest I didn't really like Book 1 (well I didn't even finish it) They were just too hard headed. But this one I do love!!! Hunter's wolf became obsessed with Nova but the human did not. Very interesting! Like we read in Book 1, the female wolf goes to heat 1x a month (I think) . She is normally in Hunter's mansion in the basement by himself. She endured that painful heat all on her own. So this time the heat just came abruptly causing Clay (the brother that she would go to when she needs someone to talk to other than her female friends) to take over and take her to his cabin, where he helped her by staying with her during the heat. From there on he became obsessed and wanted to suggest becoming "friends with benefits" which she at first declined. But over time  she gave him. This story I really liked and lets not forget the stalker!!  They gave us a glimpse of Book 3 where Nova's twin sister and Hunters decided to spend heat together and they marked each other. Being that Olvia is new to this "shifter" world I'm not sure she knows what she just got herself into. I can't wait to read it!!

Doesn't live up to the main characters

This book is good but, the main characters are excellent, so overall the story doesn't live up to itself. Nova is amazing; strong, capable, funny as all get out and caring, she's a total package. Clay is right there with her, despite his slight lack of self awareness (rather atypically, he is way better than he thinks he is). Sydney makes a great side character, despite her threads of main character energy.

The base storyline is really decent as well but some things are just a little forced, a little too much, leaving some inconsistencies. I love everything relating to the Clay - Nova love story, even the Hunter triangle works pretty well. The stalker and sister side stories are just unnecessarily excessive complexity. One or the other would be more than enough but both threads would need tightening to weave into the whole story better. Lastly is the "wolves can't hurt their mate" catch phrase; I swear it's repeatedly mentioned but ignores a huge premise of book one - the Savage trios father hurt their mother.

[Dee · Rating 5 out of 5]

Sometimes the question is did fate get it wrong this time maybe or maybe not you put this one down until the last page has been turned.

Hunter's wolf wants her but he adamantly does not. So she has spent the last year going through heats on her own locked in his isolated basement in increasing pain. A mishap sees her stuck with Hunter's brother, Clay and her heat and his rut results in them having sex. The fallout of which is that she has has to choose a mate before the next full moon. And the only male Hunter won't consider is the only one she wants...Clay.

This is the second book in a fantastic new series by Lola. One of my favourite authors, her writing is always immersive, fast paced, fun and steamy. The world building is superbly and quickly done with a plethora of surrounding characters. You just can't go wrong with any of her books and this series is another good one.

I went into this book blind, and I think that's why my head was spinning with everything that was happening in the first half.

Once things started making sense, I finally began enjoying the story because I love a mentally scarred male lead and a female lead who gently helps him find his way back to sanity.

That said, I usually prefer when healing takes time because it feels more organic and realistic. This is why I’m giving the book 3 stars instead of 5. Everything felt rushed: the stalker plot, moving on from one brother to the other, Nova meeting her twin sister and instantly becoming best friends despite their rivalry-filled childhood, and even the healing of Clay’s wolf.

All of that watered down the chemistry between Nova and Clay that had been built up in the first chapters and made it feel like it was just lust.

I’ll still read the next book because I’m obsessed with those Savage boys, and I always finish what I start.

If there’s one thing I know for sure, it’s that Lola Glass’s books are the ultimate cure-all. Bad day? Her stories will whisk you away to a thousand different worlds—and you’ll fall in love with every single one of them.

And somehow, she’s even worked her magic on me with a trope I usually avoid: friends to lovers. Nova and Clay start off as reluctant friends, thrown together thanks to Hunter’s overly eager wolf who’s convinced Nova is his mate. So when Clay realizes just how much Nova struggles during her heat… there’s no way he’s leaving her alone.

Like the first book in this series, this one tackles some heavier themes, but instead of weighing the story down, they pull you in even deeper. I couldn’t stop turning the pages.

Shiny 5 stars from me!.

Okay — I am officially falling for Lola Glass’s writing style. Every time I pick up one of her books, I find myself pulled in by her effortlessly addictive storytelling, and The Wolf Prince’s Mate just sealed it for me.

This book is pure paranormal chaos in the best possible way. The premise? Messy. Spicy. Obsessive. And I was so here for it. From the moment our heroine accidentally hooks up with the wrong brother — not the one fate’s picked for her — you know you’re in for one hell of a ride.

It’s friends-to-lovers meets forbidden obsession, wrapped in a fast-paced, spicy, and sometimes hilariously messy plot. I adored how Lola weaves humor, tension, and real emotion through all the steamy madness.

If you’re into wolf shifter romances with obsessive MMCs, a sassy FMC, high stakes, and unapologetic spice — this one needs to be on your TBR immediately.
