Depending on what your in the mood for. . . WINNING THE ALPHA is a fun, light, easy read that takes us behind the scenes on a reality show much like 'The Bachelor'.  But in this case the competition results in becoming a mate to the alpha.  I haven't read this type of werewolf 'dating' to mate so, to me, the premise was original.What will a pack do to get their alpha mated off. . .The story focuses on Nikki entering as a contestant.  She's the only size 16 'real' woman there and of course I expected the usual big woman bashing.  Yes, but Nikki stands up for herself and shines.  I laughed in some places, smiled in others. . . A few of the gushing parts were a bit much: The mob mentality over clothes. . . Swooning over the alpha Gage.  Those two stick out in my mind right now but there's a few others.  Stereotypical, yes, but again, this is a quick easy read that doesn't require any thoughts.  Just sit back and enjoy. For the .99 download, it was a relaxing read.SPOILERS:I wish there was conclusion on the identity of Nikki's dad.  He had to be of alpha stock for her to stand up against an alpha.Nikki should have reconnected with her best friend.  A phone call or something.And Nikki's mom  - Nikki needed to explain and resolve what happened and where things are headed in their mother/daughter relationship.  This could have mentioned Nikki's father and they finally have that conversation.- Dan's Wife
