4.5 stars 
 In this new M/M paranormal romance from Megan Erickson, it's a battle for survival between rival groups of shifters, and I use that term loosely, because these werewolves are so much more. 
 Reese and his brother Jude escape one group only to be captured by another. Things change in a big way when it turns out that Reese has a serious connection to the leader of the pack, and vice versa. But things don't remain quiet for long as Reese and Jude have a sister who needs rescuing. 
 Megan Erickson goes back to basics with these characters, making them seem both human and animal in their behavior, especially when it comes to sex, and there's plenty of that in this book! Daring Fate definitely captures the aspects of pack animals in a very organic way, and for me, that's what make this book feel very fresh and powerful. 
 There's plenty of action sequences that kept the story paced nicely and left me wanting more of this world. The romance between Reese and Dare, the leader of the pack also had me hooked and even a little choked up at times. I was able to get invested in them right from the start. 
 I did find that some of the situations in this book have been done before, and I hope for more twists and turns as this series progresses. Overall, this was a great start with world building that makes me want to see what's going to happen next to the members of the Silver Tip pack. 
 If you are in the market for a hot M/M paranormal romance set in a new world, this might be for you.
