His Wolf's Choice
Daya moved on with her life after her mate broke their bond. Being human, she was deemed unworthy for someone like him. So, why did the man who walked in her professor's class stirred something inside her even when she discovered the truth?
Her smell enticed him the second he walked into the room...his wolf growled in contentment. Who was this woman...and why did she call to his wolf?

I'm sorry, but this was just a mess.
The grammar is so bad I wondered if the author had run the whole thing through Google Translate.
The dialogue was often stilted and just plain nonsensical. To many times I had no idea what the author was trying to convey through the character's mouths. The rest of the time it was repetitive and obvious.
I felt like I was reading 'Days of Our Lives' but with shifters who never shift.
It's very low key and bare bones.
Daya leaves her pack after being rejected by her mate, Jared. Jared comes across as an evil buffoon. In her last year of college (learning what? I have no idea) she meets Garin and his pack. Garin feels for her ... I guess. To be honest it wasn't too clear.
Safety isn't great.

For the love of God - PLEASE, have someone edit this book!
Preferably, that has at least passed middle school English with a solid C!

Triumphant Story
Good story line. Needs editing so bad as it jars you out quite a bit, but it was a good read. I personally completely disliked this authors take on "Second Mates", as I feel they should only come in case of death of 1st mates or rejected mates. It added to the extreme problem of mate bonds being weak and treated very cavalierly in this shifter world. I would give the book a 1.5 as a shifter book, but Daya's Triumph being so sweet, in conjunction with tastefully written "Intimacy" earns (His Wolf's Choice) a higher rating from me. Being an "Uber fan" of Shifter Romance, I would not read another shifter book by this author though. Weak Alphas and horrible "mate bonds" kill the deal.

Not for me
I love werewolf romances but I couldn't find myself able to finish this one. Data's mate is a playboy, and I usually like those stories where the playboy finds his mate and then instantly stops his ways because he found his true love. With this one it was just plain awkward. An example is at the first party Daya was with Garin at, he held her hand while another girl was flirting in his ear etc. While Daya just stood there listening. Then the next party he went specifically with Daya and the same girl kissed him twice while Daya was holding his hand..... like what? This makes Daya seem very weak as she just stands there, with her hand in his while he's kissing other girls? Like I said, this just wasn't for me.

Interesting
~Thoughts~
The story itself was not bad, what I did not enjoy was that it lacked character build up as the story progressed. Usually, the author writes a bit of background to the main characters and what is going on, in this situation readers just jump right in. While the story was compelling, I felt it lacking. As for the supernatural world, you get the feeling that the mating system is "complex".
~Characters~
There are many characters besides the main characters. This book changes perspectives not only from the main characters but also get glims of other characters as well.
~Story~
Not heavy on the romance but more on the supernatural world. The story itself is awesome not only do reject mates meet, but also twisted kidnappers with a hint of females kicking ass.

Mating
I took a chance with this book and was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the book. It's a new view on shifter mating that I never considered. Looking forward to reading more from this author.

I think the story was good but it was quite confusing.
Every few pages I would have to stop and re-read sections because of the amount of typos. Referring to "I" and it being "we" and He and She, just a lot of word confusion. This book needs a serious edit. Several times I nearly quit because of the amount of spelling errors alone. Because of this I can't really give it the best review.
Some sections were unclear about the packs and who was staying with who and why because of the errors. There was a lot of filler content also. Pages dedicated to how a baby received a bath. This was not even necessary. A lot of situations were over-explained while important ones were passed over quickly.

I finished it but wow it was so confusing to read at times. I lot of "looks" to get a point across, and nodding of a head. Tammie was the biggest confusion for me why was she constantly coming around when no one wanted her there why did the alpha female and alpha not tell her to leave and not come back it's their house she just walks in without permission. Why did Garin not tell her to screw off why did he constantly let her come back and just ignore her why she stood around listening in on stupid conversations. And then in the end they sent Kenley to "erase" Tammie knowledge of ever being around the pack house. understand when Kayla closed her eyes she did something to erase Tammie's memories but that was not stated it was just assumed you would know.

Please don’t read this book for your own sanity
I don’t know why I even read this. It was terrible all around. I hate giving bad reviews, but this should not be read by anyone who reads English. It was like the author used a translate app for every word or sentence and it was written so poorly I couldn’t tell what the hell was happening most of the time. The characters were so juvenile and the author felt the need to elaborate on the dumbest topics. This isn’t even the tip of the iceberg of what was wrong with this book.

1.5 stars
I thought this book had great potential because I really like second chance mate stories but I gotta tell ya this is not it. In the end, the more I think of the overall tone of it I think juvenile, shallow, and bad.
I liked that the author tried to do something new with the second mate actually being the first mate and reverse but honestly, it just made the story unnecessarily confusing. I also did not like second mates were a thing to so many characters gives the message of mate bonds being weak and treated very cavalierly in this shifter world by creating this extreme problem with second mates.
I also do not mind if the male lead is a manwhore but I at least like when the male in question shows interest in the female protagonist that he solely for a time tries to understand it and why. He does not need to profess his love but has enough motivation and interest to stop having all the sex. I can overlook if after his attempt he gets scared and has a romp with the stereotypical booty call but I do not like it when the rake allows himself to be clung and propositioned as he is trying to talk and be flirty with the lead female. I feel that is majorly my biggest problem with this book. You have a male who is really only interested in one woman but allows himself to be more than surrounded, touched, and sex with them. An example we know Garin is not interested in Tammie but he keeps meeting and inviting her allowing her close to the people he loves to be awful too and also ends up ignoring her myself. That is not an attractive male in my eyes he is selfish to his needs and a hypocrite. Many males were like this so in love with one woman but mark and be with another. I believe Tammie did not need to be a character because later we get a similar conflict with another female and it becomes repetitive.
I also felt like the Alpha’s put up with too much. All of them and there were a lot. They very rarely used there strength, power, and status to control their members who they are too lenient with and being a nuisance to the well being of the pack.
The writing needed some major editing. There were many mistakes and wrong pronouns in sentences. The writing also was vague in parts that needed more explaining. You would end in the middle of a big point but then cut to a different chapter but what is happening in the chapter does not make sense because you did not get enough in the previous. But then we would get too many descriptions for an everyday task like a bath.

Daya left home to go to school and get away from her uncle’s closed minded and narcistic pack members. She missed her Uncle Jordan but she was done with packs then she had a class with Professor Kala. She suspected her professor was a wolf shifter and when she went to the professor home for a study group she was disappointed to confirm her suspicions. Then she learns that not all packs are like her uncle’s.
I really like most of the characters in His Wolf’s Choice, they are thought out and well developed and it’s hard to choose favorite character even the not so good characters, and believe me, they are definitely worthy of intense dislike and contempt. I notice the same thing last year when I read another book by Mary Goldberger. The difference between Second Love and His Wolf’s Choice is that Mary kept better track of all her characters in this book.
I truly like the story line, there is so much potential and originally I was going to give the story 2 stars because the version of His Wolf’s Choice that I have has a huge number of edits and when I went to the books page on Amazon to get some information for this review I noticed there was an updated version of His Wolf’s Choice. I downloaded that updated version and compared some of the edits I saw from my original version to this updated version and I noticed that the last few chapters where Kala’s name changed to Kaya was fixed and this is great and some of the punctuation errors were also fixed and that is great. Because the author is trying to improve the story, I am giving His Wolf’s Choice 3 stars, however there were still edits needed and from what I read in the updated version there were still edits needed and there are some holes that need to be filled in so that chapters don’t feel like they are incomplete or something is missing. I honestly, think that the author could use a really good group of proof readers to go through her stories with a fine-tooth comb and give her honest feed back to help her with all of that.

So much potential
There is so much potential for this story if the author had help with the editing.
I like the overall story but I will admit there is a bit going on for a standalone.
There are quite a few grammatical errors which aren’t too bad but could be easily fixed via an ARC team.
I also think the some of the content needs a bit of work. For example there is some pretty specific medical stuff going on but I feel not much research went into this and I know it’s fictional but if you’re going to be specific then at the very least get it right. It’s fiction it doesn’t hurt to be a little vague in some areas.
Maybe tying in with the above there’s a few areas that made me stop reading because it was a little conflicting. One minute she’s lucky her injury wasn’t severe but if that’s the case why such a lengthy recovery time, the doctor pulled the knife out and nicked an artery but later on was lucky that nothing serious or the fact that she was unconscious for three days due to blood loss not a head injury maybe from passing out and hitting her head on the pavement? It’s little things like these that shattered the imagination.
The story is written across multiple points of views which I generally like however as this story kept flipping between talking in the first person and third person it was hard to keep up with whose point of view it was. It was a little character overload.
Again tying in with the above there seems to be a few character flaws. Our FMC isn’t meek she is quite indifferent to those that don’t deserve her attention but she also isn’t afraid to stand up for herself but at the beginning of her and Garin’s relationship she really doesn’t let Tammie get away with a lot and also doesn’t say anything to Garmin about allowing Tammie liberties with him when clearly he is interested in Daya.

This had potential, but the execution left a little to be desired.
Two things specifically stood out after I finished that took this from something I liked to something I thought was okay. First, even though all the main characters grew up in and around shifter communities, they all seemed to not know their own culture (mostly about mates) super well. This might a by-product of explaining the culture to the reader? But if so, there has to be a better way. Not all the characters can be a stand in for the audience. Second, the characters spoke aloud to themselves a lot. That’s pretty minor, but does kind of exemplify the oddness in the writing. Overall, some of the ideas and execution felt a touch off. Maybe they weren’t explained well to me as the reader, or maybe they were a little loosey goosey to begin with (which I think may explain the culture issue above).
I did like the characters Goldberger created though. I thought they were all interesting. They were what really had me sticking around, even when the plot and world sometimes didn’t 100% work for me. And on the occasion when a character starting slipping from my graces was typically when an issue of writing or world building started creeping in (Garin suffered a touch because of this issue for me).
Overall: not bad, but nothing spectacular. It had good potential. If you like shifter books even when they’re not totally the best (like me), it’s a relatively quick read with kindle unlimited and why not check it out? But if you have high standards for the genre, this should be a skip.

She had finally found the place where she belonged.
Complementing; meant contemplating.
“I wouldn’t have never left the pack.”
It is a good story even if it needed a severe amount of edits. Again the wrong words were used, the wrong tense of words or they were simply missing. Yes, your brain can replace them to make it make sense but the constant stopping and starting was annoying.
I’m still not sure who came to see Whitney. We never saw Tammie again. I was concerned about not getting closure on the Uncle Jordan story. I wish that pack had had to eat their words more and recognized where they had gone wrong following Jared and Jasmine, I really don’t understand how Uncle Jordan had such a terrible pack. It had to stem from somewhere. We spent so much time on Ralph and his missing mate. I wish we had gotten to see Uncle Jordan again. I’m not sure why she knew her uncle was dying but didn’t go to see him?? That’s so strange even if the pack hated her.
Overall, it was a decent story. I didn’t hate my time reading it.
“She had finally found the place where she belonged.”
And another thing… WHY WOULDNT HIS ADOPTED DAUGHTER COUNT AS A LIVING RELATIVE?? Why was it a big enough deal to keep it a secret, that she was his niece by marriage?! How does that weigh MORE?!

Lots of shifter books talk about mating or your true mate. I love books about shifters, the idea of only one person who you are destined to love and be with forever.
This book wasn't what I expected. I expected the love at first sight as many shifter books are. I was pleased once I realized I got into this book and it was nothing like the others. The mated pairs weren't staying mated. They were continuing to trade out partners and that is new. Another thing I really liked about this book is that "fated" mates aren't forced to be with each other.
Daya hides from the lives of shifters. She was raised in a wolf pack that wouldn't accept her. So she runs off to a school far away. Turns out there is a wolf pack in that area she just didn't know it. She tries to not get involved with them, however, she just finds her teachers and friends too much to ignore. She becomes friends with others in the pack, and eventually, she becomes part of the pack.
Between the people who try to get in the way of Garin and his feelings for Daya, his first mate comes around. Now he's not sure what to do, or even how he feels. However, the fear of Daya and the confusion of Garin make for a book full of adventure and love.

Enjoyable
This is the first time reading a story from this author, and I did enjoy the the story as a whole. I do have to agree with previous reviews about editing. That being said, I didn't like the whole concept of two mates. First and second and how it was explained. I understood it, but agree with it! As being the second mate would always make me feel inadequate believein I was only chosen because the the first didn't work out or perhaps died! Which dying would be more manageable in my mind, explaining that the widow or widower was given another chance because the gods determined the deserved it. Besides it was very confusing to try to explain or understand ehy there might be two running around at the same time.

His Wolf's Choice
I think I fell in love with this book from the very first chapter, I just knew it was going to be good. I loved the idea of first and second chance mates. It gave the idea that every shifter deserved a chance st second chance at happiness when they had lost their first mate. Garin was a manwhore but I understood why he became that way and honestly his first mate did him a favor. It gave him the chance to have the best thing in life known as little Miss Daya, his little spitfire. I loved, loved this book. It was hilarious to see the gold singer, so called Alpha females, what a joke.

I couldn’t finish this book due to the writing. The story could have been good but I couldn’t see past the many grammatical errors. The switch in POVs without warning, the unnecessary words, and the way it sounded like someone was writing what they saw in a movie. Like I felt like I was reading those subtitles for deaf people with extra details. It just didn’t work. Maybe if it was edited (a whole lot) then it could pass. Heck I would edit it just to make it make sense. But if you can (somehow) see through the flaws, you might like it. Idk I didn’t finish it but again, I liked the story idea. It just needs to come together differently.

Bad writing
This book had a lot of misspelling and typos. It also flip flopped from first person POV to third person POV, all throughout the book, and even worse they would change which characters POV without any warning. There wasn't any indication, it could change paragraph to paragraph which made reading and following along really HARD, AND they didn't explain the wolves very well, the whole first mate second mate, drama they had going on and didn't explain it. It was really annoying because there was so much drama revolving around it, all you could get from the story is that mates really didn't even matter. It's just a fancy title. The story was dull too.

Disappointing
This book had a lot of potential but it was just so messed up from lack of editing. So many words in the wrong place, words that did not belong, missing words, etc. There were no segways between scenes or characters. It was so confusing because at times you could not tell who was saying what. Then the scene would change suddenly and you would be even more confused. I liked the overall story but it doesn't feel like a professional writer wrote it because of all the editing issues.

Great story but confusing
The plot was there, the story was there, but the amount of grammatical errors, misuse of vocabulary, and unclear sentences made this book hard to read. The jumping back and forth between characters and constant description of titles was too much. The book could have been better with more structure. It almost seemed like someone wrote one part and another added to it. I laughed at some points and cried at another. The thought is there you can see it but it just wasn't clearly written.

I'm giving this 2.5 ⭐ I am going to be careful with my review, recognizing that this is someone's art and they took the time to write this for the world to criticize.
With that said, the storyline wasn't horrible. It needs A LOT of fine tuning though. I found myself confused because the different points of view changed in a matter of sentences without warning. Oftentimes I felt like I was reading a movie script that characters needed to act out instead of a novel.
With a good editor, this has a lot of potential.

Could be much better
I liked the overall premise of the story, however the grammar and punctuation are abysmal. I normally overlook a small amount but the amount in the book took my attention away from the story most of the time so couldn't be overlooked. Missing words, incomplete sentences, sentences that didn't make any sense, etc.
It's a shame because I liked the characters and the storyline but it would have been a lot better if a bit more work and thought had gone in to it. A good proof reader/editor would have picked up on the problems.

His Wolf’s Choice Review
While the storyline was good, this is the worst written book I’ve ever encountered. It feels as though the writer is foreign as sentence structure is incorrectly relayed throughout the book and incorrect vocabulary used, making it necessary for readers to insert the intended meaning in order to make sense of the sentence. I give an F on the editing of this book of which both author and editor should be ashamed. This book had an imagination storyline ruined by lack of editing.

Second First
WARNING: Adult content, reader discretion advised. Dayla and Gavin have a shared history. They were both rejected by their fist mates. Well their second mates, whom they met first. That's a bit of a convaluted quandary. Despite both hesitation they find their way to each other.
The wolfs in this story play a secondary role. So if looking for a lot of wolf this is not for you. This is a HEA. This is a rejected mates, shifter story with a focus on second chances.

Good story line!
I did really enjoy this book. It was different.Im not one to to judge a book by the spelling and grammar problems. I am no where near perfect!
However there is alot of spelling errors! Some i had to figure out what the author was saying.
I do feel that some of the the stuff could be taken out and other spots added to.
I got passed it and actually enjoyed the book! So if you can get passed the problem i do recommend you read it!

Storyline is solid and compelling but..
Please please please get an editor/proofreader. Transitions need work or to be added in to help connect paragraphs, thoughts, events or internal dialogues. Also an overall word use and content review is needed. Lack of these things and many grammar and content mistakes are very distracting from the story and frankly screams for help. I made up my own words or thoughts as I went through it sometimes just so things would make sense.

Liked the story line, but...
I enjoyed the story line, but the writing itself made it very difficult to mentally stay in the story. The writing and dialogue did not flow naturally, there were tons of errors, too many to ignore. The character interaction was very stiff and unnatural at times. I thought the story itself was good, but it really needs a food editor. Someone to help with the writing and flow.

While I liked the story line, I had trouble with all the errors. It took longer to read because wrong words were used in context, the tense jumped from past to present, pronouns were wrong, and too many sentences jumbled up. Let me suggest that you get a proofreader. I feel like I was generous in giving 3 stars. I'm not sure that I would chance reading any more books from this author.

Should Have Been A Great Read
The storyline itself was good. As were the MC's. However the multiple typos, missing words and wrongly used tenses on every single page made it a serious chore to finish this book especially considering it was over an 8 hour read. The many sentences that made absolutely no sense no matter how many times I reread the paragraph just made it all the worse. I would not recommend this book to anyone.
