Continuation of Wolf. Seth is officially the alpha, and him and his mate face new challenges. He remains alpha (lol) sexy and protective, but still overbearing and needing lessons on boundaries (the spanking here was ?!?). She is still very overly stubborn - I get that she's trained but pack politics is another thing entirely, and it's frustrating when she keeps making rash decisions.

Nevertheless, I still found enjoyment in their romance, there's solid chemistry and dynamics, snappy banter and a lot of heat. There're also some nice moments of them getting closer on a more intimate level, which is great since theirs was somewhat a mating out of necessity. His love for her comes across very strongly. The suspense is good, with a twist, even if a little more violent than Zanetti's usual. And there's a HEA!
