Life for Aggie McClure has hit an all-time low. Accustomed to being the daughter of the Alpha of Manhattan, working nose to nose with powerful business contacts, she finds her father has performed the ultimate betrayal against her. Unknown to her, he has arranged her marriage to another wolf, a powerful businessman who will take over her father's pace someday. Reduced to being a breeding vessel, Aggie and her wolf say NO Freakin' Way as she suffers from Bitter Disenchantment with her new life an...
I often struggle with Urban Fantasies and/or Paranormal Romances because no matter how badass the female lead may be, she almost always gives up some of her freedom to a dominant male lead. Sure, in return she gets an impossibly perfect guy who makes her scream out with pleasure every night, but she must always remember that she "belongs" to him. It makes me crazy! Aggie is her own Alpha. She can lust after hot guys and enjoy great sex while also running a successful branch of a business and mak...
I really enjoyed the supernatural world that Shawntelle Madison created in her Coveted series so I was eager to read this prequel that was written about minor character, Aggie McClure. After reading this one, I have to say that I think I enjoyed this one possibly more than the other books in the series. It has made me want to go back and re-read the series for Aggie moments now that I've read what went on before for her.Agatha McClure is the daughter of the powerful alpha werewolf of the Midtown...
My Rating: 4.5 stars: Loved it - enthusiastically recommend (A)Originally Posted at That's What I'm Talking AboutShifter Agatha McClure, aka Aggie, is the only daughter of Desmond McClure, the powerful alpha of the Midtown wolf pack. Desmond is making changes at home, to include leaving Aggie’s mom and mating with a new wolf, one that will produce an heir to take over the pack someday. In addition, he’s also declared it is time for Aggie to marry, introducing to Aggie her intended, Victor. Not o...
This was a decent urban fantasy book by a pretty consistently good author. I liked lots of things about this story. I thought that Aggie was an interesting heroine with her binge-eating disorder (though who can binge eat and look like that hottie on the cover of this book!?! Oh yeah, a werewolf...) and her no-whining, take charge attitude. I also thought that is was interesting that Aggie's marriage started out promising and it was only later that things began to crumble, like many real marriage...
What a GREAT addition to Shawntelle Madison's Coveted Series! Bitter Disenchantment takes a bold step to the left... amidst all our romance stories we forget that there is always something more to a character than what we see. In Bitter Disenchantment Ms Madison shares Aggie's story... well her story this far and it is an amazing one. Beware, this is no happily ever after.. well maybe it is but this is a story about a woman escaping from a man not running into the arms of one. A great side trip!...
The author decided to break some of the most well known rules about shifters specifically wolves. Straying from the party line in fiction isn't a bad thing but I think it was to the detriment of this plot. Making jigsaw puzzle pieces fit by biting off a bit just to keep the story flowing made the sub-plots less enjoyable.The main character is an overprivileged shifter with an eating disorder and the will of a wet blanky. She is a supposed alpha female but does nothing but bow down and follow ord...
Aggie is the kind of alpha female you want on your side. Take no prisoners, she'll protect what's hers against the worst kind of betrayal - that of her father. Aggie will never be a doormat and how she gets out of her predicament will leave you rooting for her!Shawntelle Madison is back with the fabulous voice and laugh out loud, nail biting wit that makes her an auto buy author for me. She's a rare talent, someone who can make you laugh and cry all at once. She makes you feel these characters!
I have read the other books in the coveted series and enjoyed them, so was excited to read this novella about Aggie.Talk about a book not going how you expect it to go. It was great trust me but different to what I expected.Aggie wow what a characther, so strong and savvy, she's the daughter of an alpha and is happily getting own with her own life in high end NYC, her family life has gone wrong but things are going to change again......Enter victor fiancée to be, his smooth, gorgeous, and has al...

She is no longer allowed to fulfill her role in the family's company, her new husband has taken her place and her only role is to have a child.She wants out of being an incubator for the next alpha and her only escape is money. Having no access to funds now that her
Braine's Talk Supe review BITTER DISENCHANTMENT won't leave you bitter. It might be a novella but it'll make your heart pound with excitement, your jaw clenching in anger towards Desmond and Victor, and your hand clutching your chest on those moments where Aggie's had close calls. Agatha McClure is a female worthy to be called a HEROINE. This girl is begging for a spin-off!
I received a copy of this book from NetGallley in exchange for an honest review.I have to say that I really enjoyed this story. I liked Aggie, and her strength and independence. It was nice have a female lead with an eating disorder other than anorexia or bulimia, and that he compulsive overeating was treated as the serious issue it as rather than a failure of willpower or self control. I liked her practical response to her father's controlling ways. She doesn't waste too much time whining, feel...
I really enjoyed this story in the COVETED world. Shawntelle Madison wrote a true alpha female in Aggie.

Bitter Disenchantment is a prequel to Coveted, which is the first book in the series. In the first book we meet the redheaded Aggie McClure after she had already fled her father and her pack. Bitter Disenchantment focuses on Aggie's background as the former alpha female heir to the McClure pack. From the outside it would seem that Aggie's life was going reasonably well. Aggie, being the only daughter of Desmond McClure, lives in luxury and even had a great job at her father's company. Her larges...
4.5 starsAggie McClure has been one of my favorite characters in Shawntelle Madison's Coveted series since the get-go so I was very excited to read a novella from her perspective. Bitter Disenchantment didn't disappoint! I loved Aggie's voice and I feel like presenting her story was a very smart choice by Shawntelle. Also, it was very enjoyable to see Natayla from someone else's point of view.Bitter Disenchantment finds Aggie forced to marry someone she doesn't know because she is an alpha femal...
Somewhat predictable, but this is still a good read.
Great read. I'm looking forward to finding out more about Aggie.
Reviewed by: Rabid ReadsI wasn’t a big fan of Aggie’s character in Coveted but my opinion of her completely changed after finishing Bitter Disenchantment. I’m so happy that Shawntelle Madison gave her a second chance to make an impression on me! Originally I thought she was a bossy, opportunistic, spoiled brat but now I see her in a whole new light. It’s amazing how drastically your opinion of a character can change once you learn more about what makes them tick. Aggie really is an alpha female
Dnf. I made it most of the way through, but. There's a reason we have editors. I am ok with the occasional typo. Major plot holes I have an issue with. I kept trying to suspend disbelief but I threw in the towel. It has potential, but. find. an. editor. please.
