Daddy Wolf’s Fake Marriage by Serena Meadows
I was trying my hardest to stay away from the sexy rancher at work… until he discovered a huge secret.
It’s almost comical to watch Mitchell care for the baby that he just found out he had.
I’m a veterinarian at the same ranch he works at, and his glances haven’t escaped me.
Mitchell is a tall and handsome alpha.
Asking for help isn’t in his DNA but this unique situation calls for something drastically different.
Different… as in… me.
He’s struggling with his new baby, and I’m struggling to get my hands on my trust fund that would allow me to build my dream clinic.
A fake marriage would solve all our problems.
All problems… except one.
The secret about his identity that he would no longer be able to keep.
Mitchell must embrace his new role as a dad, and as a protector…
While I find a way to keep my heart locked away in a safe place.

Daddy Wolf's Fake Marriage, Book 1 of the Prospect Shifter Daddy Mates series, was about Mitchell Stewart, a rather/wolf shifter, and Dr. Connie Delmonico, the resident veterinarian. (No ages were given for either of the characters.)
Mitchell and Connie had worked on the same ranch for several years, but they always seemed to butt heads with one another, pushing each other's buttons. Those around them believed it was just an attraction they were fighting, but Mitchell and Connie, each believed it was animosity, pure and simple.
When one of his former bed partners showed up one night with a baby in tow, Mitchell was shocked to learn he was a father. The woman told him she didn't want the baby and had, in fact, already signed away all of her parental rights. She then disappeared.
I shelved this as a "slow-burn", but it was really more like a "no-burn" story. Once again, by Chapter 12, there had only been a single kiss shared between the two main characters. The rest of the time was dull and boring, and more about their arguments than anything else. He was left "holding the bag" so to speak, and had to learn how to be a parent and care for an infant.
This book was quite disappointing in many ways. While the angst and drama should have been high, they were merely low-key to the point of being almost non-existent. The plot was pretty lame, and it was not as free-flowing as it could have been. The whole story felt like a freshly plowed field, with all the lumps of dirt to trip the reader's smooth reading path. It was just so choppy and clumsily written.
Both of the main characters should have been well-developed and mature, but they weren't. They were mediocre and there was much to be desired where they were concerned. The background information on both of them was pretty sketchy and hard to decipher. The author would offer up some type of explanation but would keep it hidden so that the reader was left in the dark more times than was comfortable. Even the spicy scenes (there were just two) were at the very end and weren't all that spicy, to be honest. Another issue with the book was that the title didn't fit the story either.
If this was a Shifter story, there was hardly anything to prove it. By Chapter 12, there had been no sign other than the MMC talking about "a touch of magic" sizzling around him that he had to stifle, and only a handful of times the magic was mentioned for the rest of the book. Mitchell seemed determined to never tell Connie that he was a wolf shifter. It was as if adding the shifter vibe to the story was to sensationalize the book, but since it had so little to do with any of it, all it did was make the story feel lame.
The book was so disappointing that I only gave it a one-star rating. The grammatical errors, the "no-burn" pace, the lack of shifting, and all of the other things I found wrong with it may cause me to not want to continue with the series. Even the epilogue was not what it should have been.
