About this listen

Agent Cooper Dayton is going to meet his boyfriend's werewolf family. Unarmed. On their turf.

And he's bringing his cat.

When Agent Cooper Dayton agreed to attend the funeral for Oliver Park's grandfather, he didn't know what he was getting into. Turns out, the deceased was the alpha of the most powerful werewolf pack on the eastern seaboard. And his death is highly suspicious. Regardless, Cooper is determined to love and support Park the way Park has been there for him.

But Park left him woefully unprepared for the wolf pack politics and etiquette. Rival packs? A seating order at the dinner table? A mysterious figure named the Shepherd? The worst is that Park didn't tell his family one key thing about Cooper. Cooper feels two steps behind, and reticent Park is no help.

There are plenty of pack members eager to open up about Park and why Cooper is wrong for him. Their stories make Cooper wonder if he's holding Park back. But there's no time to get into it...as lethal tranquilizer darts start to fly, Cooper needs to solve the mystery of the alpha's death and fight for the man he loves - all before someone else dies.

Contains mature themes.

Tired of listening to stories about humans? Consider the werewolf! Taking various forms over the course of centuries and mythologies, often as flesh-devourers, werewolves now commonly appear in fantasy and romance novels as shape-shifters. The shape-shifting element in werewolves' stories has almost humanized them, depicting the internal struggles we all face within ourselves, on some level or another.

Good

There was a lot of miscommunication, or rather a lack of communication, between these two. As others have said, this wasn’t my favourite so far, but I still appreciated finding out why Park is the way he is. There was relationship growth and I look forward to the next book.

Better and better...

On this journey, Cooper gets to meet Oliver's family but Oliver forgot to share just one little tid-bit of information, which places Cooper in a precarious position, to say the least. Learning more about Oliver was interesting and adds more depth to the character...explaining a few things. Tie that in with another mystery to be solved and another edition to a wonderful tale written by Adhara and expertly narrated by Bloomquist. Excellent story!

Emotional Rollercoaster

This is a frequent reread for me. While this is I think my least favorite book in the series, I still love it. The manipulation and just overall vileness that is the Park pack in the beginning makes me insanely frustrated, however, the amount of growth the entire pack shows is very nice to see.

Cooper and Oliver are among my top favorite couples ever. They truly love each other and are willing to do anything to ensure the others happiness.

amazing! perfection!

this book lays so much groundwork for Park and Cooper’s future, and gives us just as much rich history so we can start to fully understand our boys. i love love love the glimpses of softness and prickly-defensiveness we get from both of them!!

The wolves will keep you on your toes!

If you read book two, and I hope you read book two, you will know that Cooper's family life was a lot. However, you haven't seen anything yet. Welcome to the Park's! The Park pack is storied, monied, feared, revered and admired. Cooper joins Oliver for his grandfather's funeral and has no idea what he is getting into. No idea.

Bloomquist has a lot to deal with here. While perhaps not the universal opinion, I think he does a fine job with all the characters he has to navigate. No major complaints here.

What I love about Adhara's treatment of this series is that she isn't afraid to create wildly different environments to test Cooper and Oliver. Too often, a series that follows the same couple will essentially live in the same world the entire time. That allows the leads to lean on the familiar to suss out what isn't right. We are often reading the same book over and over. That does not happen here. Each book is in a completely different place and wildly different circumstances.

As we get closer to Park's family home, an icy road and questionable brakes finds our guys off the road and miles from anywhere. While Park goes off for help, we get the first inkling of just what Cooper is in for. An inquisitive wolf and strangers on the road get Cooper (and his cat) to town, where he immediately finds out that outsiders are suspect. Especially outsiders who have questionable scents attached. Once we get to Oliver's family home, Cooper gets his first look at a wolf transition and he wants to know more.

Sadly, he is going to have to wait as there is a lot he isn't ready for staring him down. Protocol is only one of them, the family didn't know that he is human until his arrival. Things go downhill from there. This surreal world keeps Cooper off balance, especially when he finds out that very inquisitive wolf is Oliver's ex.

Adhara really runs them through the paces, with Park's secrets now on full display. Cooper continues his established pattern of heading into really questionable situations without back up, something he does often. Park struggles with his own fears. This is book where I solidified my opinion that Oliver is the more interesting of the two, which as we go on I struggle a bit with Cooper being the driver of the stories.

Cooper proves himself a good match for Oliver in that he is quite fearless, and very willing to fight anyone - whether on two feet or four paws - to be with him. We already know that Oliver is hooked. Another high recommended installment of this series!

Wonderful characters and family drama

Well if I thought there was drama meeting Cooper's family that was nothing compared to the drama of meeting Oliver's family! Cooper isn't sure what to expect and the surprises just keep coming while visiting Oliver's family. Of course a huge part of that is because Oliver hasn't told Cooper anything and really given him no idea what to expect nor any help in dealing with his family. Apparently he hasn't told his family much about Cooper either. There are few twists and turns and surprises along the way and some growing between Cooper and Oliver. I wanted to smack Oliver a few times along the way when he let his fear of Cooper accepting him get in the way of their relationship. At times during this book the couple really felt like they were on shaky ground and had me wondering how/if they would work it all out. Throw in a murder investigation and all the secrets and it made for an exciting book. Looking forward to the next book!

The narration for this one is very good and the voices for the characters fit and were distinctive. It kept me engaged and has me wanting to listen to the next book versus reading it.
