Waiting on Wednesday (318) When He's an Alpha (The Olympus Pride #2) by Suzanne Wright

       

 



"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, created by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
This week I'm waiting on:

When He's an Alpha (The Olympus Pride #2)
When He's an Alpha (The Olympus Pride #2) by Suzanne Wright 

The golden rule of shallow flings is not to get attached, right? Well, Havana Ramos broke it. Big time. There’s just something about Tate Devereaux that pulls at her. Assertive, compelling, and self-assured, the Alpha cat shifter pushes every one of her best buttons. Like really, really hard. Having overheard an enlightening conversation, she knows he won’t give her more than a fling—something, to be fair, he’d told her well in advance. If she doesn’t want her heart to get bruised, it’s time to end what little they have. It’s not like he’ll care or anything. Except … it turns out that he does.

Newly-appointed Alpha Tate Devereaux is never bothered when women walk away. He can’t exactly blame them, given his distrustful cat’s habit of withdrawing from relationships. But when lone shifter Havana ends their fling, everything within Tate rebels against it—including his cat. Even as she and Tate work together to crush the threat looming over her, Havana holds him at arms’ length. But if she thinks she can end their fling with no real explanation and that he’ll just tip his hat and walk away, she’s forgotten one very important thing—there’s nothing easy about shaking off an Alpha.

Waiting on Wednesday (266) Untamed Delights (The Phoenix Pack #8) by Suzanne Wright






"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, created by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
This week I'm waiting on:


Untamed Delights (The Phoenix Pack Book 8)
Untamed Delights (The Phoenix Pack #8) by Suzanne Wright

Return to the sensual and feral stirrings of the Phoenix Pack as a woman who’s already bound to one man is tempted by a wolf who’s bound only to his nightly desires.

Cat shifter Mila Devereaux can’t help but see it as a betrayal. That her one true mate imprinted himself on another female was hard enough to accept. Struggling to be at peace with her loveless fate, she doesn’t fight the suggestion of entering an arranged mating. Then she meets Dominic, a pack enforcer with a notorious reputation. It’s in his very scent. This irresistible playboy—and delicious badass wolf—is making Mila’s fantasies come alive again.

Alarming, compelling, and heady with sensual energy, Dominic is an expert at making women shed their inhibitions. Now everything about him—his killer smile, his perfectly sculpted body, and his smooth-as-honey voice—is drawing in a captivating new catch. But for the first time in his life, Dominic is feeling more than a fling. He finds himself tantalized by a female who makes him think of forever. He wants all of Mila and won’t be satisfied until he has it.

As the passion grows wild, so does the risk. They’re falling in love in the shadows and secrets of their pasts. And it’s threatening to destroy everything Mila and Dominic are fighting for. And are destined for.

{ARC Minute Review} Dark Instincts (The Phoenix Pack #4) by Suzanne Wright


It happens whenever wolf shifter Roni Axton is near Marcus Fuller: a crackle of sexual awareness that’s intoxicating…and deeply annoying. Marcus is a pack enforcer who oozes power, but Roni is lethal in her own right—nothing like the flirty females who flock around him. Even still, his possessive gaze makes one thing clear. Marcus has singled her out for seduction, and he wants to make her sit up and beg.

No matter how aloof and unfazed Roni acts, Marcus can tell she wants him. When a brutal attack by a jackal pack forces them to work together, it’s the perfect opportunity for Marcus to chip away at her defenses—until he falls into his own trap, completely unprepared for the intensity of their connection. Roni is the only one who’s ever seen past his shifter charm and discovered the man hiding beneath it. And for Marcus, claiming Roni once will mean needing her forever.

{Details} eARC. Expected publication: April 7th 2015 by Montlake Romance. Source: ebook provided in exchange for an honest review
 
{Rating} 3/5 - I like it!
 
{Review} 
"Opening your eyes to find that you're upside down can't be good, can it?" (page 1, line 1)
Roni is strong, vicious, independent, socially awkward, absolutely devoted to those she loves and determined to avoid Marcus's attempt at seduction. Marcus wants Roni. Desperately. He is a match for Roni in every way, just as strong, vicious, and protective, but he's outgoing and charming where she's awkward and reserved with affection.

While I wasn't a fan of the jackal storyline, I just didn't find it all that interesting, I did like the development of the relationship between Roni and Marcus. I liked how they respected each other's strengths. How they saw past the surface, understood each other and love each other. I adored Marcus for not letting Roni hide, to run away, to accept less than she deserves. Roni is not at all touchy feely, she's beyond independent but that's what he needs. After a screwed up childhood he needs someone strong enough to stand on her own but able to still love him.

Dark Instincts is book four in the Phoenix Pack series and can be read without reading the previous installments as I did but there is so much history and so many relationships that I felt like I would have gotten more out of the book if I'd read the other books first.

"Um, Roni, could you please tell me why there's an unconscious female in the trunk of your car? Rubbing at his nape, Eli frowned down at the blonde. "When you said, 'Come see what I've got,' I thought you meant new sneakers or something."
