Blurb: Getting captured was least of this stubborn alpha’s worries.
Officer Christopher Saunders just completed his K-9 training and he can’t wait to pick out his first partner. But when none of the specially trained dogs catches his eye, he gets disappointed, until he sees a heroic stray on the news. Christopher is sure he can train the dog himself, if only given the chance.
Too bad Samson has other plans. But going home with this man is a better idea than waiting for his pack to figure out he’d been stupidly captured like some common poodle. The collar and leash also had to go. There was no way he’d be wearing those for long.
This is an expanded re-release.

Review: This book was a tad bit hard to get into at first, but once I got over the first paragraph or two it flowed right on.
It was extremely funny and you can tell parts of it were suppose to be serious, but really it didn’t come off that away for which I am glad. I laughed my butt off with this story. There is not really much of a plot, but I imagine by book two there will be. It was a really cute story line. Human meets shape shifter and vice versa is one of my truly favorite reads. Christopher was an innocent it would seem, very gentle and kind with a heart of gold. He needed a k-9 partner but just couldn’t find one till he sees a dog on the news. What he had not expected was this dog was really a shape shifter. Samson however had different ideas, well until he actually realized he liked Christopher. Samson was the alpha of his pack, tough and hard, well until he hears a child. He saved the child from a house fire, but out of air he was just like anyone else, easy to catch. You can tell that there is fire between them, but Samson takes it really slow for Christopher’s sake.
I wished that this story were not only longer, but a little more background to it. I think I would love to read the next book in this series to see if it will tell a little more about their connection.
