Alpha by Jasinda Wilder
3.0
2.5 stars
Hot sex only takes you so far. And yes, this book had copious amounts of it. What it didn't have? An original story. It was cliched, predictable and lacked any depth.
The "mystery" was evident immediately.
The heroine was stupid. (really? you think you have to go with some stranger because some freak has been sending you money? Nope)
There was never any real reason as to why the hero was so secretive and weird. In fact the back story on either character was minimal at best. Who were these people?
There were also several inconsistencies that should have been caught in editing. When a book is this hyped, good editing should be a given.
Bottom line:
4 star sex
1 star story
