Six Months (Seven Series, #2)

4.5 Stars

Six Months is book 2 in the Seven series by Dannika Dark. This book focuses on April, the manager at Sweet Treats owned by Lexi from the first book. April has had a very tough life. She lost her father early and her mother was a drug addict. After her mother abandoned them April and her younger sister were raised by her

Grandmother. After her Grandmother passed away, her younger sister moved away and April found out that her Grandmother had accrued a very large debt, spread around with various loan sharks. Just when she thought she had it all paid off, she was visited by some very unsavory men and told that she was nowhere near out of debt. The other main character of this book that we are introduced to is Reno Cole, the eldest of the Cole brothers. Reno is a Private Investigator and a very intimidating man. When he lets his wolf out to run, he knows he has to stay away from town, away from humans, but somehow he keeps finding himself closer and closer to town, drawn to the tiny little trailer where April Frost lives. “That was the night a fierce and beautiful creature walked into my life and changed it forever.” April first gets to know Reno when he is in his wolf form. And a trust is built.

Eventually as April finds out about the world that Reno lives in, the Shifter world, she begins to accept it. And the attraction and bond is growing between Reno and April. But a Shifter and a Human? That is simply not acceptable in the Shifter world. And April is keeping a lot of secrets. She refuses to ask for help with her debts and the loan sharks putting pressure on her. She wants to handle it on her own.

Reno and April face so many challenges. Both personally from secrets they keep hidden and from current threats. Can they trust each other enough to let down the walls they have built and allow each other in? I think one of the things I enjoy the most about this series is the strong family bond the Cole family/Weston Pack, have. It is explained that Shifters, both in wolf form and in human form, are a pack, a family. They protect one another, no matter what. And even though a large family of brothers is bound to get into trouble, to make not so great decisions every so often, they are a family. I loved getting to see the relationship still going strong between Austin and Lexi. And a new character has been introduced in this book Trevor, who is April’s best friend. “I’d been so fixated on having a home that I’d never realized how a person could be the very thing I was searching for. Reno was home, and I was finally ready to go.” Although I don’t think I enjoyed the relationship between Reno and April as much as I did as the one in the first book between Austin and Lexi, this is still a fun, sexy and suspenseful great addition to the Seven series.
