Title: Kit-Kat
Author: AK Nevermore
Genre: Erotic PNR Romance
Book Blurb:
Grimdarke James’ problems have gone from bad to worse. Ousted from his MC and on the run, all he wants is to keep Kit safe while he sets things right. But calling in a favor drops more than trouble into his lap.
As he tries to salvage what’s left of the Maw of Mayhem, forces close in on the crew and tensions rise. New allies are found and old loyalties are put to the test. So is Grim’s relationship with Kit when someone from his past tries to come between them.
Yeah, that’s not happening, but wrapping her mind around being the shifter queen and discovering her new powers is throwing Kit for a loop. The threat to her position as Grim’s mate raises her hackles, and she’s not about to share. With her heat triggered, she’s running on instinct and battle lines are drawn. Can Grim win back his MC, and prove he’s the man for her, or will he lose it all?

My Review:
Kit-Kat by AK Nevermore is the third book in their Maw of Mayhem book series. I loved how this book reverted to the themes I loved in Book 1: Grim. Kit-Kat tells the story of how Kat integrates into the Mayhem MC club of cat shifters. Readers will love the banter, politics, and action of the MC club with a twist of the paranormal.
AK Nevermore expands her world in this book to include the werewolf shifters. I loved this addition because the interactions with the werewolves answer readers’ questions about Grim’s father, Claymore. Clay and Navarro, the leader of the werewolf pack, were close before he died. He gives us clues as to why such a benevolent pack leader would treat his son and step-daughter horribly. This isn’t completely resolved, but the amount of clues hooked the series’ claws deeper into me. Readers be warned, Clay’s past is the cliffhanger at the end of the book, and I must know his deal. I can’t wait for the next book – or perhaps Clay’s own book.
Just like the rest of the series, this book is packed with action, magic, and paranormal politics that will delight any urban fantasy fan. However, we see them through the eyes of Kit-Kat. The queen has arrived. I love how her character bloomed from an anti-shifter human to stepping into her role as Grim’s mate and the pack’s female leader. We learn her powers and watch her use them to enact revenge on characters who pushed her around in previous books. So satisfying. Nobody is immune. Kit-Kat even shows Grimdarke who’s boss and his response is explosive, hot spice.
My favorite parts of the book have nothing to do with Grimdarke or Kit-Kat. We revisit pack members who didn’t have big roles in Book 2: Darker. Deuce’s love life woes made me clench my fists in anger, cry, and cackle. Fated mates is a popular trope in shifter romance that is at odds with the culture of MC romance. I love how AK Nevermore uses humor to show the discrepancies through Deuce. He’s another character that I hope has a large part in future books or a book of his own.
Overall, I highly recommend Kit-Kat by AK Nevermore for lovers of MC romance, shifter romance, or urban fantasy. Readers won’t be able to turn the pages fast enough to keep up with the shifter pack dynamics, action scenes, steamy romance, and witty banter between MC club members.
My Rating: 5++ stars
