I liked this story quite a lot. It wasn't overly involved or complicated. It's a fairly standard shifter universe, though apparently humans know that shifters exist in this universe. I liked Mick's personal hang-ups and didn't feel they were overblown or unnecessary, and Rio's were fairly self explanatory. The author touched on all the small things that I wanted to see by the end, so it was satisfying as well. 4 stars.
