Review<\/b><\/h4>\n

4 stars<\/b><\/p>\n

An exciting, fun, dramatic and actiony shifter story with a sexy and heartfelt romance, I loved this book!<\/p>\n

This is the third book in the Stope Pack<\/i> series. Erik is the brother of Seth, hero of books #1 and #2, but this one can very easily be read as a standalone.<\/p>\n

Eric Volk is a wolf shifter with alpha blood, but he\u2019s an alpha without a pack to lead. It\u2019s lucky then that the Copper Pack is in need of a new alpha. The Copper Pack may be in an alliance with Eric\u2019s own Silver Pack, but a recent attack on his new sister in law has the two packs on the verge of a huge conflict. When Eric visits the Copper Pack under the guise of becoming its alpha, he\u2019s actually there searching for vulnerabilities. But he feels drawn to help the run-down town and it\u2019s downtrodden members, and he\u2019s particularly drawn to pack medic, Luna.<\/p>\n

Eric and Luna met in the last book when he kidnapped her to help his pregnant sister in law. It obviously wasn\u2019t the best of circumstances, but all turned out fine and everybody is now friends. And since their questionable first meeting, Eric and Luna have been unable to stop thinking about each other. But for some reason, Luna is trying to keep her distance, refusing to even consider a future with Eric.<\/p>\n

There are secrets to be uncovered, and with active threats against the Copper Pack, and Luna in particular, Eric lets his alpha flag fly and steps in to protect and defend his new pack, figure out what\u2019s going on, and eliminate the threat once and for all. And while doing so, he\u2019s determined to claim Luna as his own.<\/p>\n

\u201cLast night was last night, and it was fantastic. The best ever. But we need to move on to our plans.\u201d A hint of sadness wafted around her.
\n\u201cWhat makes you think you\u2019re not my plan?\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The romance is gorgeous. The attraction is there, the chemistry is sizzling and the sexy time is wildly hot. The love story unfolds slowly, with very real hurdles in their way, and I could absolutely understand Luna\u2019s perspective. But I loved Eric\u2019s no-nonsense nature and refusal to take no for an answer. He\u2019s the strong male that Luna needs, and it was so gorgeous watching these two come together.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll always come for you. Every damn time because you\u2019re everything in this world to me. Forever.\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

There\u2019s a great cast of characters, and I loved getting to know them all and watching the town come together. There\u2019s action, mystery and suspense as the danger increases throughout the story and we try to figure out who the bad guy is, and I loved the excitement of it all and thought it was really well written.<\/p>\n

This was such an enjoyable read, I loved it.<\/p>\n

4 stars.<\/p>\n
