Unwilling Wolf

Standalone Wild West Werewolf Arranged Romance

By: T. S. Joyce

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Eliza Flemm is back in Rockdale to chase an old life she has been dreaming about since her mother took her away from this place years ago. She is grown now, and raised softly in Society, but her adventurous spirit has always longed for the chaos of the Wild West again. She wants to reconnect with her father, of course, but she also has harbored a secret affection for Garret Shaw—the son of a rancher, and someone who was good down to his very bones back when she knew him as a child. Whatever she remembers of ranch life from her childhood memories, well, nothing is the same anymore. Garret Shaw’s eyes don’t look human, and the snarl in his chest says something terrible has happened to the friend she remembers. He is nothing like the kind boy she used to know, and now he is leading a Pack of people she doesn’t understand. The more she is immersed into this feral shifter world, the more she questions if she should’ve ever come back here at all. But with time comes understanding, and slowly she is building an unbreakable bond to the life, the creatures, and the people here in this Turn of the Century town. She has stumbled right into the middle of a war that has been brewing for decades, and now she will have to get her hands dirty and learn to fight back, or slink back to her cushioned life in Society. All while falling hopelessly in love with a werewolf who seems angry she even exists.

Garret Shaw is angry all the time. He’s trying to do his best by his Pack, but a territory war has been building, and the arrival of Eliza destroys the plan he’d put in place for peace. She’s soft and fragile and bleeds easily, and now she is his wife. Why? Not because he chose her. He marries that irritating woman as a favor to a friend and now he’s saddled with the red-haired firecracker for as long as it takes her to run away back to her soft life in Boston. She’s human, and too mouthy for her own good, and that’s a bad combination out in the wilds of Texas where werewolves rule the territory. He’s Alpha here, and has a hundred fires to put out on any given week, and adding a sassy, fragile human to his Pack isn’t something he ever wanted. And to top it off? She’s gorgeous. Of course she is. Her stunning beauty makes it all the more irritating as he tries to keep his distance. And he’s noticing she is working hard and learning her way around his ranch. And now? His wolf is paying attention to her. He can’t afford to get attached to a soft human who will either perish, or run away. He has a territory war to focus on, and a Pack to keep fed, and no one could ever find a more unwilling husband than he…at least that’s what he’s telling himself.

Don’t miss this epic Wild West werewolf adventure that will lead you through the perils and triumphs of ranch wars, cattle drives, expanding territory lines, and controlling the beast within. This slow burn love story turns hot as fire, as T. S. Joyce stretches her muse to the longest book she’s ever written.

Saddle up, ladies and gents.
You’re in for one helluva wild ride.

unwilling

I enjoyed the book very much. but I hope there will be a human vocal to really bring the story out

Needed More for the Ending!

I really enjoyed the story. It kind of lagged in places though. Then out of the blue here was the ending.

great writing

An engaging story and a HEA with enough drama to keep you listening. Even the virtual voice is good.

Western Romance

I loved the storyline it was unpredictable and as every chapter flew by it made me wanting more, it’s not your typical werewolf romance, less rules and more satisfying story lines.

Okay overall

I didn't like the virtual voice. It cuts out sometimes, and over or under emphasizes what people say. The story itself was written decently. Not my favorite, but was still entertaining to listen to.

good book, wish it wasn't AI

good plot, I don't usually like westerns or anything near that genre, but this was surprisingly good. the AI voice made it hard to distinguish who was speaking in a few spots where there was a lot of back and forth dialog or interruptions

I didn't want to stop listening

I couldn't stop listening to this book. the characters were amazing and I found myself constantly listening until the very end!!!!

great book

I loved this book!! I couldn't stop listening and finished it in just over a day.

Unwilling Wolf by T.S. Joyce A Must Read

My only complaint is the Virtual Voice. Missed phrasing could be off putting for many listeners.
The quality of the story was intriguing, and I loved the way Joyce wove the past of both of the main characters into the story itself. Loved that some things were only revealed in the end...Thank you for an enjoyable experience!

Wonderful Western Story

I can’t deduct points for AI voice for performance because it’s AI and there isn’t a neutral. The story was very surprising. I loved the length and couldn’t put it down. I need more of this quirky family.
