Publisher's summary

He had his chance. He blew it, and I’m out of here.

Flora

I’m at the bottom of the pack. I’m female, I have no family left, and everywhere a shifter is supposed to be hard, I’m soft and round. There’s one bright spot in my days—Alec Cameron. He’s hard in every way—so distant that he’s ice cold—but once in a while, he gives me a nod, and we sneak off to the woods. He’s not cold, then. Not at all.

I used to dream that fate would make it official, but after so many years, I’ve given up hope. Then, at a pack run, heat strikes. Alec Cameron is my mate. In front of everyone, he turns his back on me.

I didn’t know how cold he could be, but I do now, and I’ve got a choice to make. Do I hang around and deal with this messed-up pack like I always do? Or do I take my new wolf, break free, and forge a new path of our own?

Alec

This pack is falling apart. Literally. I spend my days patching together buildings that are inches from sliding down the mountain. In my free time, I have to compete with the other two males vying for Salt Mountain alpha, the world’s worst job.

I’m constantly holding everything together, and until the night of the last full moon run, there was at least one bright spot in my days.

Then Flora Ritchie goes into heat at the worst possible time and place, and in all the chaos and revelations, I lose my grip. And my temper.

In the blink of an eye, my mate is gone.

I know how to fix things, not feelings, but if I don’t figure it out quickly, I’m going to lose it all.

His Curvy Rejected Mate is the fourth novel in the Five Packs series, but it can be listened to as a stand-alone story. No cheating. HEA guaranteed. Intended for adult listeners only.

Wolf shifter, rejected mate!

This is the fourth book in the Five Packs series and I’ve been loving this wolf shifter, rejected mate series from Cate C Wells. This one is probably my next fav in the series after book 1.

In here we follow Flora and Alec. They’ve actually been sorta secretly hooking up for years and Flora definitely feels used and kept as a secret. But she’d also love for him to be her mate. She’s also curvy and her body and shape seems to be seen as less-than in their pack and community so she gets a lot of hate and is made fun of from the rest of the pack. She does end up going into her first heat when her and Alec realize they are actually mates and they end up taking off together.

This one just has some surprisingly sweet moments that were sprinkled into the story. I liked seeing Flora find her strength and confidence along the way. This one definitely deals with a lot of angsty moments, the whole series kinda has these heartbreaking moments throughout. But it does definitely make the HEA that much more satisfying at the end.

CW: body shaming, fatphobia

Demeaning pack members

Flora heard all day long, every day that she is overweight and not worthy a praise. Only her strength got her moving and with her maté regaining her love for life.

Great story, great performance

I'm a fan of 'rejected mates' and so far I have enjoyed 2 of Cate C. Wells titles featuring this. Faith Clark and Christopher Rourke were great, I only wish Rourke had more time in narrating - I tend to prefer male performers. I liked that Flora and her thoughts regarding her weight were easily relatable and realistic and that although her human side was at times cowed, her wolf was one a badassed biotch!

4 stars - worthy of a repeat listen

The only classic love story in the series

Listening to this book I got those squishy feelings I get when a relationship is too perfect. Like I wanted to stop immediately and hide the characters in my brain somewhere in stasis. I was afraid we'd get a vicious crime, or a 3rd act break up but their relationship moved steadily upward - from bad to good to bliss.

The intro of this book was ROUGH. The rejection was humiliating. The mmc (Alec) was publicly cruel and hateful. He used very intimate insults. I mean, Killian (book 1) still holds the title of Alpha dumbass, but this guy wasn't far behind. Setup: The mfc (Flora) has been in love with Alec and giving him regular blowjobs on the downlow for years (since highschool). He nods her way, they go somewhere private, she gets on her knees. Bing, bang, boom. He gives her ABSOLUTELY NOTHING in return. No public acknowledgement, no conversation, no pleasure, no kisses, no reciprocation whatsoever, he even briefly dates another.

Flora was yell-out-loud-in-your-car levels of pathetic. But it was explained entirely by her crushingly low self esteem. Because of her weight Flora is a shifter anomaly. And she has been relentlessly attacked her entire life. It isn't just a nuisance, for her it has become a full scale disability. The self loathing, and feelings of physical discomfort, control her mind the way an eating disorder does. It actually started to make horrific sense that she would get pleasure from those one-sided rendezvous with Alec, after all they gave her: human contact, someone's undivided attention, and the ability to bask vicariously in his (universally accepted) beauty. But it was still sickening. Then in a seriously badass move, when her mate rejects her, Flora decides 'to hell with everyone' and leaves pack, destination: Cadoc's (book 2) Old Den. Yes, she's still a weak person doing a bold thing, but her paradigm has been shifted and it saves her from being a doormat. In a kinda surprising move Alec immediately chases, uprooting his whole life. And we slowly find out (for the rest of the book) exactly how obsessed he is/has always been with Flora - physically, emotionally, spiritually.

This was the only classic love story in the series. All of the other books have had hierarchical, socioeconomic, and violent barriers to love. In other words: external conflicts. The major conflict here was completely internal for both MCs. The character arcs for both of them were about going from one's own worst enemy to one's own saviour.

Awakening

I loved the character development and the twists and turns of life experienced by them. Characters were always learning about the real meaning of being fulfilled and happy. They learned where happiness really originates.

Great narration.

Let me start by saying I’m a huge fan of this series. I own all the books and audible versions as well. Every voice actor matches the character. Spot on. I have found that to be rare. I love that there is both a female and male narrator. And I love both. Another super rarity,
