Bleacke's Geek (Bleacke Shifters Book 1) Kindle Edition
When girl meets geek, the fur’s gonna fly!
Dewi Bleacke is a no-nonsense Prime Alpha wolf. As head Enforcer of the Targhee pack, she’s in charge of Florida. Her assignment is to kill a dirtbag who sold his daughter. She doesn’t expect to find her handsome, albeit geeky, soulmate in the process.
Dr. Heathcliff McKenzie Ethelbert lives a quiet, boring life. A professor at USF, he has no girlfriend, no car, and is a devout vegetarian. So when a mysterious woman with mocha eyes literally drags him out of his booth and then proceeds to have her way with him, it’s not his average night out. When she follows their sexy interlude by abducting him after killing a man, he suspects life has just taken a drastically odd turn.
Now Dewi, her partner Beck, and her surrogate father Badger, have to educate her new “grazer” mate on the ways of the Targhee wolves. “Ken” does his best to fit in. But an old killer lurks in the shadows--the wolf who murdered Dewi’s parents. Can she keep Ken safe, or will her mate prove to everyone that he’s a lot more than just Dewi Bleacke’s geek?
(Book 1 in the Bleacke Shifters series.)

Editorial Reviews
Review
"A howling good time. ... This was so much fun. A strong female character, that isn't a Mary Sue or a Bitter Betty is like finding a unicorn. ... This book was a perfect find to remind me how much I really love reading. Now I'm off to book 2." - Amazon Review
"I never have really considered myself a big PNR or shifter romance fan but after I saw a few keywords about this book, I was excited to pick this one up.
Keywords that had me 1-clicking this book:
✨Alpha female
✨Soft, cinnamon roll geeky hero
Those keywords are not something that I, personally, usually see for shifter romances. After I saw them I just knew I had to pick this one up and it did not disappoint! I loved the twist on the dynamics in this book!" - Amazon Review

And I got this book on sale for $0. So my review is legitimate. Your welcome.
This was a very good story. I liked Dewi and Ken and enjoyed their story a lot. I was actually surprised to find that I have read a book by this author before because apparently this is a pen-name for Tymber Dalton who's work I already liked. :D
Dewi is a prime alpha in her wolf shifter pack and also the head enforcer. Dewi's parents were killed when she was very young. She was raised by her brothers and the rest of the pack but due to her being a prime alpha (as well as some other reasons) Dewi had to be sent away from the pack's home in Idaho and settled as an enforcer for the pack in Florida.
Dr. Heathcliff McKenzie Ethelbert (aka Ken...Dewi shortens it to this after they meet) is a professor in Computer Science. He didn't have a great life growing up, mostly due to his stepfather and stepbrother. His stepfather killed his mother and is now in jail but his step brother still makes his life miserable. Ken likes his job but has never had a woman stick around and mostly has a boring a lonely life.
Dewi has been sent after a shifter that sold his daughter to a drug dealer and had plans to sell off more of his daughters. Dewi was tasked with killing him since there's no jail system that will work for shifters and the guy can't be allowed to continue. She finds him at a pub and is planning how to take him out when she catches a scent that attracts her very much. She realizes that the scent is her mate and now that she's found him she won't be able to concentrate on anything else until she's claimed him. She doesn't have much choice but to do it quick if she wants to get the guy selling his daughters before he escapes. She finds Ken in a booth and as soon as she makes sure he's single and straight she drags him to the ladies bathroom and claims him. He's rather freaked out but a beautiful woman coming on to him unexpectedly and is even more freaked as the night continues and Dewi shoots a man before dragging Ken to her house. Even though he knows he should be afraid and want to go home, part of him is drawn to Dewi and doesn't want to leave her side.
Dewi takes Ken home and introduces him to her "Uncle" badger (the man that raised her). Badger and Dewi proceed to tell Ken about shifters and the basics of what he's walked in to. When Dewi shifts into a wolf in front of Ken he does faint but overall takes the whole shifter things pretty well. Ken is more convinced that Dewi will come to her senses and realize she doesn't want Ken. He's already falling for her (yes, it's a PNR and there is insta-love going on) and is crushed at the thought of not being with her. It takes Dewi some work to convince him she wants him and is falling for him in return. Even once she's had some success, Dewi realizes that overall it'll probably take time more than anything else to convince Ken that they're together for good. It's interesting seeing Dewi and Ken settle into their relationship as well as seeing Ken settle into life with a bunch of shifters (especially with him being a vegetarian and hating guns...). I liked seeing them come together and finding just how well they fit together. There is some drama and some unexpected danger but everything gets settled nicely and Ken and Dewi start planning their HEA together.
This was a very enjoyable story. I liked both Dewi and Ken and can't think of any major complaints about either of them. The story was what I expected but yet it wasn't boring and kept me engaged to the point that I was still thinking about the story when I got pulled away from reading for work. Overall, this was a very enjoyable story and I'm looking forward to trying more of this series. I'd recommend this book. :D
The beginning of this book really worked for me. Dewi met and realized Ken was her mate while she was out on a job to exact justice from a guy who if I remember correctly sold his kid. It’s definitely not the best time to discover your mate, and Dewi has some great inner commentary in the beginning. So does Ken for that matter. He’s just sitting at a table eating his food when this woman sits down with him and suddenly they are hooking up in the bathroom. Of course that’s when things go crazy, there’s violence and mayhem and being put in car and being taken to Dewi’s house. Confusion is high in the beginning and it’s very amusing.
As the two of them settle into their new status I felt like the book kind of lost a bit of it’s steam. There is a lot of foreshadowing when it comes to talking about Dewi’s past, it’s like you know the past is going to come back so that really kind of took the suspense out of it.
Also while I did really like Ken for Dewi (they surprisingly mesh pretty well), I did find him to be a pit more of a pushover than I would have liked. He has a bad relationship with his stepbrother and he really just lets him walk all over him, it really kind of bums me out. I did like that he was smart though, and how he fits into the dynamics of Dewi’s family.
Overall the book was enjoyable, and it had some elements I really like, and some I could have done without, but I’m glad I read it.
Top reviews from other countries
I also liked, that her mate wasn't a powerful man in the muscle department, but a nerd with a iron backbone.
The story was good and original. But for my taste, the explicit sex scenes were over the top and didn't do anything for the book. So I skipped them. That's why it only gets' 4 stars.
Perhaps I'll get the next book, if it's not a short story, like under 200 pages, because I expect to have to skip some sex pages there too and still have too pay the price like for a book of 350 or more pages.
But this book was worth the price.
