Recently I read the first story of the 13th Floor series and really enjoyed it. Just now, I finished the second story, The Alpha, and loved it. I’m trying to decide if I liked it more than the first, but I think both are equal as far as character development and story goes. However, I really liked that this story revolves around a female alpha. I’m drawn to strong female characters and it’s a bit of a twist for this genre.And I have to say that James is just adorable. When Stefanie discovers him on the roof I just wanted to give him a hug. It’s nice to have a strong male lead with a sensitive and caring side. And their attraction is pretty hot.I was happy to see that Rains connected this story to the first story, The Marquis. It’s not the same plot, but the connection reinforces the 13th floor aspect to the series. And I love it when authors pay attention to details and know their own stories inside and out.The action in this novella comes at you quick and does not quit until the end. If you aren't careful, you may skip some chores or meetings to finish this up since it’s nearly impossible to set down until you know what happens. Now it’s time for me to read the third!
