Title: Queen Heir

Rating: 3 stars
Synopsis:
Arianna is a queen heir and at 20 years old she's now eligible for the crown of wolf shifters. Heirs are trained and groomed so that they're ready, should the queen perish during their time of eligibility.
Of course, there's little chance of that happening. The Red Queen has stood for a century, and her power is beyond reckoning.
Or so Arianna believes, right up until the final tolling of the bells. The queen has fallen. Four heirs will now fight it out for the crown.
Let the summit begin.
I listened to this as an audiobook.
There were a few quirks that I liked about this book. The fact that there are not only wolf shifters, but bear shifters - and that these two types of shifters have been fighting each other for years trying to hold the most land in New York. Another nice thing about this book was that there are so many heirs that could possibly take over when a queen dies who have to fight for it, rather than just one who automatically takes over and who may not be a good leader.
The summit is an interesting take on things too. It is where all eligible heirs fight to be the next one to become queen - sometimes literally fighting to the death. Otherwise the heirs that survived and did not become queen go back and are disgraced heirs.
I also liked that there wasn't just one family of wolf shifters who could become queen. It could be any eligible heir from any of the four houses - red, green, purple, or yellow.
My favourite characters were also probably Kade and Calista.
