This book was nice. It was sweet, it had a good plot line, it kept me at least minimally engaged, and I liked it. However, if you're looking for a ruthless, protective, possessive Kristen Ashley type alpha male, this is the wrong book for you.In Jason's head, he's very possessive.He hates that Cadence smiles and hugs his brother, he hates that she's going on dates with Chris, he hates that all the males are looking at her. But he never acts on this, or backs up his thoughts with actions.Call me old fashioned, but I love, love, love the type of H who will yell at a guy for staring at his girl's boobs for too long (Ty-Lady Luck) or will put one of his men on a stake because that man failed to protect her and she almost died (Vlad-Once Burned) or will literally continue to use her ex's body as a chew toy even after he's dead, just because his wolf doesn't get that the ex isn't a threat anymore (Trey-Feral Sins).All these books are fantastic examples of great, sexy, domineering alpha males. At the bottom, I'll list some more. They're all different, but they have one thing in common.They would all eat Jason for breakfast.Throughout the book there's a few examples of this, but the one that made me stop and go...huh? Came at the end.***SPOILER AHEAD***When Jason caught Chris at the end Jason snapped Chris's neck because, and I quote, "He might be evil, but he doesn't deserve to suffer."Wait...WHAT?!?!Doesn't deserve to suffer? This guy stole your mate right after your mating ceremony, stripped her down to her underwear, punched her, and he had plans to rape her then keep her as a pack sex doll. And he doesn't deserve to suffer?? No.So, all in all, if you want a cute wolf read that's fairly well written and will keep you mildly interested, look no further. I just like my alpha males.If you're looking for a good alpha read, here are some suggestions:Anything written by Kristen Ashley. Literally, anything. She's the queen of alpha males and we should bow before her.Feral Sins by Suzanne WrightFrom Rags by Suzanne WrightHere Be Sexist Vampires by Suzanne Wright (and the sequel- The Bite That Binds)Once Burned by Jeaniene FrostTwice Tempted by Jeaniene FrostPole Dance by J.A.
