Savage Games by Reece Barden

4.25

adventurous emotional hopeful mysterious tense medium-paced

---

Ever since book 1, Rogue Games, I've been excited for the continuation of the Alpha Games and Wyatt's story. Wyatt was the perfect protective and patient alpha, and he was obsessed with his mate Naomi from the first moment they crossed paths. Naomi annoyed me a bit with her constant secrecy and half-truths; I wish she would have simply trusted Wyatt with the truth earlier on. There were also parts of the story where the flow seemed disjointed and certain passages were repeated. Nevertheless, Wyatt and Naomi's romance was filled with unwavering devotion, acceptance, and a mate-bond as deep as Dean and Jaime's. I loved seeing them overcome all of the obstacles working to keep them apart to finally achieve their HEA, and I cannot wait for Jax's book next🖤

Tropes: fated mates, hidden secrets, cinnamon roll hero with a dominant side, heroine-on-the-run, touch her and die, hurt/comfort, forced proximity, competition for pack leadership, alpha politics, found family, SLOW BURN, steamy🔥
