BOOK SYNOPSIS
INTRODUCING SWAT: SPECIAL WOLF ALPHA TEAM
They're tight
They're on target
They're as alpha as men can get.
The Dallas SWAT team is hiding one helluva secret . . . they're a pack of wolf shifters.
The team of elite sharpshooters is ultra-secretive—and also the darlings of Dallas. This doesn't sit well with investigative journalist Mackenzie Stone. They must be hiding something . . . and she's determined to find out what.
Keeping Mac at a distance proves impossible for SWAT team commander Gage Dixon. She's smart, sexy, and makes him feel alive for the first time in years. But she's getting dangerously close to the truth—and perilously close to his heart...
My Thoughts
As someone who is a huge fan of alpha werewolves this premise intrigued me, the execution of the actual idea was a bit rougher than would have liked but the resulting romantic suspense story was engaging and easy to read.
As stated by a few other readers this is not something that you should expect to be more than what it is, a paranormal romantic suspense with very likable characters whose stories you will wish to investigate further as each one is released to read. There is quite a bit of predictability throughout the book that is true, however it is also true that there are surprises in store as things progress for Mac and Gage. Most of those surprises center around past events that help shed more understanding for the reader as to how the team came into being and just how much is at stake if they are exposed to the public.
A new werewolf series with a unique twist of explaining triggering of the initial transformation which lies in the persons DNA rather than being a born or bitten shifter.
Beginning with the Packs leader and SWAT commander Gage Dixon's story this sets us up perfectly with characters as charismatic as they are fearsome.
Looking forward to where we are taken next when the second book becomes available.
