Blurb: Sparks fly when a protective alpha meets an omega in danger, but there’s a catch: this omega is still human, and doesn’t know what he could become with a bite from the right wolf.

Being an alpha werewolf made Rusty Jamison one of the best while he served in the Marines, a top team leader in the elite Force Recon. But now his instincts have made military life unbearable–he couldn’t protect his team without revealing what he was. He’s out of the Corps and taking his first job as a bodyguard, using those instincts while protecting his secret. But his client is the last thing Rusty expected: a latent omega, a human with werewolf blood just waiting for a bite to awaken his potential.

Sam Hurley has fended off plenty of unwanted advances in his twenty-four years. As a baby-faced computer genius, he’s used to being sought after for more than just his brains–but now someone is stalking him, and Sam is going to need help getting him to take no for an answer. His new bodyguard seems like he’ll be able to do the job, but once Sam meets him he wants Rusty for a lot more than protection.

Rusty and Sam can barely keep their hands off each other from the moment they meet, driven by their werewolf instincts. Rusty knows that whoever’s stalking Sam must be another alpha, hunting this rare unprotected omega. Sam might just be Rusty’s chance to start a pack of his own; all he has to do is give up his secrets, hunt down a rogue alpha, and make sure Sam still wants to be his at the end of the day…

Review: Sam was in need of a protector. It would seem he has a stalker. So he goes to an old friend and asks for help. He did what any sane man did, he ran to the one man whose job was to protect others. He just hadn’t expected Rusty.

Rusty is an alpha wolf all the same. He notices tha somehow Sam is also wolf and an omega at that. He is surprised that Sam has no clue though. He has found his mate and must protect him at all cost.

This is the first book by this author that I have read and I was quite surprised by it. The characters were quite charming and seemed to hit it off truly fast. However it was definitely not like many paranormal stories I have read. First off the plot was a bit dull and flat in parts of it. The jumping around drove me to the edge. The characters were charming as I said above however one stood out and above the other. It comes off more porn than true love story.

This story started out amazing and was looking at four or even five star ratings. However the first mention of the whole pack and the omega going at it not only brought it down but also made sure that it would be the last book in this series to be read. It knocked out the idea of true love and actual alpha/omega ideas. An alpha would never share his mate with anyone, and to change it up dropped the book to a lower level. I want the classic alpha and omega love story not the whole sleep with the entire pack.

I hate to say it but this story was disappointing and definitely not for me. I will also admit that I won’t be reading any more in this series.
