Description
Fake dating your worst enemy—what could possibly go wrong? An enemies-to-lovers, paranormal lesbian romance that proves love can outfox anyone.
Ever since shape-shifters revealed their existence to the world, tensions between humans and Wrasa have been dangerously high. To improve their public image, the Wrasa council comes up with a bold plan: a fake relationship between one of their own and Faith MacAllister, the human daughter of their most vocal enemy.
Tala Peterson, an aloof fox-shifter with the attitude of an alpha wolf, is anything but thrilled to pose as Faith’s mate. She doesn’t trust her one bit—and rightfully so, as Faith has her own agenda. Their flirty banter is strictly for show, and if Tala finds Faith’s scent annoyingly irresistible, it’s only because of the mate scent their scientists concocted.
But when the wolf pack that raised Tala insists she bring her new mate home for a visit, the fake lovers are forced to not only share a bed but also to confront old prejudices. Soon, Faith faces a difficult choice: Should she keep spying on the Wrasa for her father, or can she trust Tala and her kind?
Enemies by Nature is the first novel of a two-book saga that concludes with Shifting Nature. While part of Jae’s shape-shifter series, they can be read independently of previous books.

Henriette – :
An exciting and thought-provoking new story about the Wrasa
This is the start of a wild ride that takes two books to come to its conclusion (Enemies by Nature and Shifting Nature).
The world now knows that shape-shifters (Wrasa) are real and the reaction to this revelation is harsh: the human powers-that-be insist that their fellow-citizens/Wrasa need identify themselves at all times, they treat them as second-class citizens, there are haters and there are debates of revoking all their civil rights and separate them in certain areas (think reservations or worse concentration camps). Sounds familiar? Jae does a fine job in cleverly constructing a story which touches on the life of many LGBTQI+ people and other shunned minorities who were and still are vilified for being different.
The worst foe of the Wrasa is an alliance led by Peter MacAllister. A chance meeting between Peter‘s daughter Faith and Tala, a shape-shifter, turns out to be an opportunity for both sides to angle for power. Faith and Tala are to fake-date. The Wrasa think it will have them look good, Peter MacAllister wants to spy on the Wrasa – for reasons! Faith and Tala hate their roles and don‘t trust each other – at all. What could go wrong, right?
This is a typical meticulously crafted story by Jae with a very, very slow burn. The motivations, story development and people we get to meet are engaging and well fleshed-out. I loved to get to know the characters, their family and friends. There is no black/white on both sides – good people, sometimes misguided, old wounds festering, humanity (or Wrasa).
I couldn‘t stop and kept turning the pages. Also a paranormal not-yet-full-out-romance it will appeal to everyone who wants to read a great story and have a closer look at segregation of people who are different and at the roots of fear driving divisiveness.
PS.: The second books takes up the pace several notches (and the heat) and is another page-turner. More later … have to finish it right now.
I received an ARC. The review is left voluntarily.

If you love books about the Wrasa and see the grey shades in characters and love to see them growing, take a chance. Couldn’t stop reading it and hope the second book will be as good as this one (I’m a big fan of Jae’s books).
Michelle (verified owner) – :
Both “Enemies by Nature and Shifting Nature” are both well written and and told stories by Jae. Jae’s story telling talent is one that should not be missed. Jae writes across multiple lesbian genres and and each story captures my attention that I usually can;t put any of the stories down untul I finishing reading them non-stop. These two books I read back to back, because after finishing “Enemies by Nature” I had to see how it ended, and was glad to instantly read “Shifting Nature.”. I am so glad she published them so close together. Something else to note is Jae’s ability to continue a saga series and not miss any of the previous point of views within the saga is what makes her such a great author.
Jae, I am sorry to say that past 12 years that I have been reading all your work , I have not been good about leaving written reviews consistently. Now that I retired I hope to have more time and make up for lost time.
For anyone thinking about purchasing these books, don’t miss out on this continuing saga.
