ALPHA MINE is the story of Monte, an Omega promised to a rival pack for many years, where it is finally happening. He's not happy with it, but doesn't see a way out of it. Everything changes on the Night of the Blood Moon, when Monte asks the Goddess for help and has a kiss with an unnamed Alpha, who sweeps him off his feet. Only trouble is, it turns out that Alpha is the brother of the one Monte is to be married to.

This was a really good slow-burn read, with Monte finding his place and Felix being all honourable. Hunter is a bit of a d!ck in this, but I'm hoping he will get a story and an HEA of his own in the future. The two scenes where Felix and Monte are together are steamy, but they don't take over the whole story.

A story that I thoroughly enjoyed and have no hesitation in recommending for other paranormal romance lovers.

BLOOD OF THE DAMNED - THORN is the first book in the Vaughn Winery series, which takes place in the Divergent Omegaverse. I was happy to see Derick and Lane make an appearance too!

Ledger has left his ex and his old life behind in LA, moving to Bumf?ck, Nowhere for a new job at Vaughn Winery. What he doesn't expect is to meet his mate and everything that comes with it! Thorn is in town to meet his new employee, and doesn't think the omega who is his mate is one and the same, so he is ecstatic when he finds out. Together, their romance moves forward at breakneck speed, culminating in Ledger being pregnant, which raises a whole bunch of questions that they might not like the answers to.

This was a great introduction to the series, and I can't wait to see both Calvert and Dacian meet their mates. Definitely recommended by me, and I hope to see more of Thorn and Ledger in future books.
