Rating: 3.5 stars out of 5

When Tanner moves to Chicago for a new job, he experiences his First Shift, a revelation that signifies he’s met his mate since the last full moon. The only problem? He doesn’t know who it is. To find his mate, he enlists his new assistant Jon to arrange a series of dates, but each one turns out more disastrous than the last.

With the next full moon quickly approaching, Tanner finally determines the identity of his true mate. Unfortunately, Jon has since disappeared, and Tanner must now begin a new search. Is it really Jon’s family crisis pulling him away, or is Jon just not that into him?

Are you ready for a hot encounter between a lycan and mashed potato? LOL

Tanner is a thirty years old werewolf, he just moved to Chicago to work at The Dilarium, a small publishing company. He’s almost resigned to be alone, when he had the First Shift, meaning he has found his mate. He only needs to understand who he is.

Jon is his adorable assistant, the one with cute bowtie and tortoiseshell glasses. He is Tanner’s mate but the Lycan is not aware of him yet. Tanner has only twenty-nine days to find his mate. With Jon help, he set up some meetings with potential mates. While looking for a mate in a married man, a playboy one and a vegetarian one, Tanner will realize Jon is the only one to date.

He’s Just Knot That Into You is a very particular book, I never read about a shifter searching for his mate like that. It has a unique premise, with interesting new aspects on the shifters’ world. But what happened with the title? I love it and the “knot” part is assured with some steamy sex, but the “not that into you” part confuses me, the MCs are obviously into each other as soon as they knew they were mates.

I admit that the title and the cover caught my attention at first sight. I was so ready for a sweet and cute story and I wasn’t disappointed. Only one thing, I didn’t enjoy the ending. First, in my opinion there was no need for the final ending scenes, it is a light book, but most of all it left me with a lot of unanswered questions. It felt almost forced but it didn’t get enough pages. I think that space could have been easily used to develop and show us more of Tanner and Jon together. I wasn’t able to feel a connection between them yet. I’m hoping for a sequel and I’m wondering if there is a chance for a second story with some male pregnancy elements.

Cover art by Anna Sikorska. A really cute cover with an unusual use of the yellow color. Well done.
