Goodreads Summary

Dammit, just how many toes was she going to have to stomp on before people realized she was a Delicate Freakn’ Flower?

Naomi doesn’t want to follow tradition and settle down with a violence-loving, chest thumping shapeshifter. She grew up in a household with five, testosterone laden brothers where none of the dishes ever matched, the ugly-as-sin furniture could withstand any catastrophe, and where crazy glue was bought by the case.

When fate—with a snicker—makes her meet not one, but two mates, Naomi digs her heels in and refuses to do what her wolf—and her body—demands. No way is she voluntarily allowing herself to get hitched to a pair of dumbass—totally hot and muscled—lacrosse players.

Can Ethan, the towering Kodiak bear, and Javier, the sexy, tanned jaguar convince this she-wolf that life with them won’t be all chaos? And can this delicate freakn’ flower unbend her prejudices enough to recognize she needs a pair of men who can handle her thorns—and her passion?

Warning: this is a hot threesome story where all the focus is on her with pleasurable consequences.

I was really excited to read this book, as the main character and I share the same name!! Could this Naomi be my alter-ego?? Hehe!! My favourite song at the moment is “She’s So Mean” by Matchbox 20, and after reading Delicate Freakn’ Flower I think that that song suits this story to a tee!!

After growing up in a home with five shifter brothers, who are full of testosterone and are always resorting to violence, Naomi has always had a plan of finding a human male to settle down with so she can have a normal, quiet life. Francine, Naomi’s best friend, convinces her to go to a Lacrosse game and while they are there, her inner wolf stirs and finds her mate. Not only is he into sports and violence, but he appears to be a jock, all the things she despises in a male.

Ethan, along with his best friend Javier, go to Naomi’s parents place, so that Ethan can meet his future mate. Naomi’s father and brothers are in the middle of a standoff with the two jocks, when she realises that she may be mated to two men. “Fate wouldn’t be so cruel!”

Naomi is very pig headed and stubborn, and no matter how mean and nasty she is to the guys, they always come back to her and continue to woo her. She tries to deny her inner wolf that these guys are her mates and she even continues to look elsewhere for love.

Naomi is a feisty werewolf and I love her character. She is set in her ways because she had a plan in her head for so long. She tries to stick to it, but these guys may have bought those plans to a crashing halt! The guys are just great. Ethan is a shy massive hunk of a man, while Javier who is not quite as big, has always been very smooth with the ladies! They have been best friends since college and have done everything together since.

It was great to meet these characters and watch them grow and form relationships, even though not all of those characters want to!! We get to enjoy the thrill of the chase and watch the storyline build, as it’s not all about the seduction of the woman, but about her safety and that of her family too.

The only thing I found hard about this book, was trying to connect to Lacrosse. I have never seen a game of Lacrosse in action, as I live in Australia, so it was hard for me to imagine how the game is played out.

Overall, I was captivated by this book. It was a fantastic read and had some very intense sex scenes. I’m not sure if this Naomi could handle it!! (Me LOL!!)
