A review by enchantressofbooks
Dark Alpha's Lover by Donna Grant

2.0

As a fan of this series and the spinoff DARK KINGS, I'm sadden that I'm finding a repetitive story. The names change but the overall concept remains the same. This novella moves the story a long as we learn a few new things but again, not by much. The instalove might be what is doing me in... I mean, here you have a Reaper that has closed his emotions down completely, has been around for YEARS and I'm expected to believe (yes, I know its a story, but there has GOT to be a little bit of 'possibility' to make it work too) that here comes a pretty face and BAM, he is now falling for the heroine. That's the thing.... its completely and utterly physical only. In THIS situation with THIS Reaper, I would have preferred for them to get to know each other and have him fall for HER and not the pretty face.

There was also the issue of a plot hole

Spoiler

Cat has a unique and extremely special power of making her wishes come true. We've been told she is just as if not can be more powerful than a fae.... why is it that the neither the Reapers nor Death ask her to wish Owen back to them? They don't even ask her to try.

Narrator Review: I think she did a great job with the female characters. I wish there was a better range and differentiation of the male characters. I also think her accent for the characters is rather good! I'd LOVE for her to co-narrate with Antony in the Dark Kings series!

Overall it was okay. Its a quick listen.
