I am glad I didn't pay attention to the negative remarks. This is the first book I have read by this auther and  I thoroughly enjoyed the entire book. The heroine was not human. She was an alpha prime women and kicked ass through the entire book because she had to prove to her alpha mate that she was his equal  and because after they bonded she became a battle mate. She had super powers when it came to sensing emotions.  The male was still very much an alpha. There was action through tge book. They keep getting in to one situation after another.
