After reading Alpha Gray which was passionate and tempestuous, Alpha Theo by CJ Primer changes the pace to a slow burn. I thought it was awesome that no matter how much of a player Theo used to be Brooke had him tripping over his own feet without even trying.
All the retro music references brought me back and I couldn’t help but search for them on Spotify and make an Alpha Theo playlist. I wondered why they didn’t have Bluetooth portable speakers or earbuds to use but then I suppose the wired buds did force proximity on Theo and Brooke if they wanted to listen to something together. Btw, go to Spotify for the official Brooke’s Playlist created by CJ Primer.
Even though Fallon (from Alpha Gray) is Brooke’s identical twin their personalities are as different as can be.
My thoughts on the bike? Super hot! But I get Brooke’s fear when Theo would go fast … especially since she has that problem with her wolf.
You can get a copy of Alpha Theo on Amazon or you can read it on Goodnovel.

Some stories are written so well that even before I finish the book, I already feel compelled to post a review. A Weekend with the Alpha by Glory Tina is one such book.
It starts off with a major life event for Zera and her family. I questioned her decision, at first, because in her shoes I would not have been a part of the whole thing but as a storytelling tool, it works to build up the tension.
The first time she meets Aaron seems fortuitous and somehow, I could feel the sexual tension between the two. Despite what I have read being sexy and steamy between the two, it isn’t all there is to their story. There is intelligence and genuine interest in each other. I can’t wait for the part where Aaron reveals that he is a werewolf and an Alpha!
Did I forget to mention that Zera is human? Yup, she is so far. I’m only on chapter 12 so who knows? I can’t read further until I can gather or buy more coins. 😀
So far, this story is just sooooo good that I can’t put it down. I may need to exercise some patience as I can only read so far unless I buy more coins. 🙂
Check out A Weekend with the Alpha on Goodnovel.

The first time I encountered Alpha of Nightmares by Bryant on Goodnovel I was iffy if I should read it or not. My first thought was “What kind of alpha is he if cannot control his wolf?” Was his wolf, Chesed, that strong, or was Alec that weak? Was Alec/Chesed even worth meeting?
You see, in every new book I open, the lead male character is my book boyfriend so I wasn’t sure if he had what it took to be my boyfriend. Thank goodness, I gave him a shot! The call of the mate bond was just too strong, lol!
But, seriously, my curiosity was piqued. I just had to know the story. I HAD to know the circumstances that led to Alpha Chesed instead of Alpha Alec and his wolf Chesed. In addition, I also found it intriguing how Alec and Chesed had such different personalities. They are polar opposites but come together when it has anything to do with the pack and their children.
His story and how his relationship with Crista grew was just wonderful to witness. But for me, the icing on the cake was Alpha Heir Andre and his incorrigible personality. I’m looking forward to seeing Alpha of Nightmares by Bryant on Amazon soon, but for now, you can read this on Goodnovel.

The Alpha’s Inferno by Reece Barden follows the relationship between Sheriff Marcus, a were-bear, and Leila, a werewolf, the pack princess and sister of Cooper, the Alpha in the first book, The Alpha’s Saviour.
How can a relationship between them progress when one seems so hellbent on self-sabotage? Alpha’s Inferno is so frustrating in that I want to drag Marcus by the hair, sit him down in front of Leila and then bump their heads together so that they could both FINALLY talk and get on board the fated mate train and start making pups/cubs.
Marcus is a bear, and therefore, does not feel the mate bond, even though he finds himself extremely attracted to Leila. Part of the problem, for him, is that she is the pack princess. Since he is the sheriff he doesn’t feel that he has any right to get involved with her.
Leila recognized the mate bond instantly. However, since Marcus seemed hellbent on avoiding her and “doing the right thing” she falls into despair while trying to pretend that all is well so that the rest of the pack (and townspeople) don’t know there is anything wrong.
The story is so interesting that despite the frustration factor, I still kept on reading. This story definitely falls under “slow burn” and it does get pretty hot so I would still recommend it. Let me know if you get frustrated with Marcus as well, lol!
Bears can be so dense!
If you would like to read this story, you can find it on Goodnovel and on Amazon in Kindle and paperback versions.

The Alpha’s Saviour by Reece Barden is so well-written that I just couldn’t put it down! I started reading it at night and finished in the afternoon of the following day. If not for the need to sleep, I would most likely have read it straight and finished before noon.
I started reading this on Goodnovel because the premise intrigued me. I mean … how often do Alphas need to be saved? Anyone who has read a shifter/werewolf romance knows that the Alpha is the strongest werewolf there is and, often, if anyone needs saving, it is the heroine of the story. As an added twist, she is human and knows nothing about the world of shifters and fated mates.
Reading their romance unfold was such a page-turner. Cooper’s hesitation to let people know that Hayley is his mate to protect her caused her to doubt his feelings for her and the status of their relationship.
While stories between werewolves and humans are not unheard of, it is not that common. I found Reece’s take on it interesting and worth pursuing.
If you would like to read this story, you can find it on Goodnovel and on Amazon in Kindle and paperback versions.
