Review: Over the years one gets use to certain books and they have an expectation of what they would like to read.  Now I have read several stories by this author and have pretty much loved them all.  However this one I had just a few issues with it.  The other thing was I don’t mind books that continue about the same character as the previous book; however they lose their lustre with me.  I seem to lose interest in them just as fast.  

Now in this one we have Alex getting ready to move his little omega mate in with him.  However it would seem Jonah has been keeping some secrets and it just might get him in trouble.  Although the trouble he would get from his mate, he might like that kind.  Our poor little Jonah has zero confidence and trust.  He thinks his alpha is going to lose interest in him, and Alex is just going to have to well if you want to know what Alex needs to do, read the book.

Now I like the whole omega and alpha story but this one takes it a bit too far for my taste.  I mean Jonah comes off as a very weak young man who is too needy.  Whereas Alex is the mean, powerful alpha who just adores his mate, which is great.  However I feel that there is something really missing between these two.  I mean omega’s might be smaller and might be weaker than the others, but to make him come off like he did just didn’t really work for me.  I was not as into this book as I should have been and that was a big disappointment.

Review:  I started reading romance stories at the age of twelve and was always intrigued by the worlds that authors can come up with. Then a few years ago I read my first gay romance and I decided that there was just something about them that I liked more. I, like many, have favorites that we always follow and I am thinking that this author might be heading that way. There is just something about the world that she creates that kept me captivated throughout the whole entire book.  I love how there is a serious tone to it, but that it is equally matched with humor. I can’t stand a book that has no humor in it; I would rather be laughing then just sitting there.  

Jonah was an omega wolf that had escaped from basically his cage.  It would seem omega wolves are just as cruel to each other as some alphas are to them.  He ran at such a young age and found a home to stay in.  He just wasn’t really cut out for the city and its smell.  However he loved working for his boss.  The problem was his boss was an alpha wolf shifter and Jonah managed to hide what he was.  However that all changed when Alex found him in heat.  Alex knew Jonah was his mate, but he hadn’t known that he was a wolf till the heat got too much for Jonah.  He just now had to figure out how to get Jonah to trust him.  

To me there is nothing better than a good romance, but when it is a paranormal then it hits higher marks to me.  Now I have to admit that this story seemed to move around way too fast for me to keep up in some parts.  However I did enjoy reading it and cannot wait to get my hands on the next book in this amazing new series.
