Hello
happy readers! So this post is a day
late but I was out of town yesterday and it wouldn't let me post via phone so….an
extra post today. Yesterday was the
release for Shattered Pack (Alpha Girl
#6) by Aileen Erin and as you may know I LOVE this series! Seriously I read each book in one sitting and
then as soon as it's over wish I had more.
This was no exception. I have
previously reviewed the other titles: Becoming Alpha, Avoiding Alpha, AlphaDivided, Bruja, and Alpha Unleashed.
There are spoilers for the previous books, duh.
Rating: 5
Stars
In
Shattered Pack we follow Meredith this time around instead of Tessa. I loved Meredith from the first book on and
when she found her mate Donovan, Alpha of the Celtic Pack….I was so in love
with him. So a book with them at the
center was totally something I needed. So
when we let off our gang had faced down Luciana and her hoard of demons and
come out on top but they also exposed themselves to the public. This makes things a bit uneasy as the world
comes to terms with it and the different communities are rattled with the
exposure. Donovan is stretched thin
between his job as an Alpha and as one of the Seven already but add in this
mess and it's hit a breaking point. His
pack isn't in the best shape but when he gets the call that his second has been
murdered they head for Ireland. Not an
ideal time given the tensions but even with some exes and not so friendly
welcome Meredith is there for her mate never one to let a few angry wolves stop
her.
Again
I love that we get a book focused on Meredith and Donovan. I loved them in the previous books, I mean I imagine
him with the accent and….well yeah. But
Meredith is such an amazing character.
She is so strong and sweet. She
loves her friends fiercely and believes friendship outranks everything else. I love that about her. Donovan is so powerful but he doesn't flaunt
it and is really just a softie. They
really balance one another out.
We
get to see more about the world at first, how the normal world is dealing with
the whole news of supernatural. Things
have been flipped and the school they call home isn't safe so we go home with
Meredith. Getting to meet her family and
know the pack she has been a part of outside of her satellite pack was
great. Her family is serious
business. It makes sense why Meredith is
the way that she is, strong, fierce, and loving. Then we shift to Donovan's pack and it is a
completely different story. They have
been largely without an Alpha for so long as he had been stretched thin with
his work for the Seven and things have fallen into disrepair. To see the contrasts was great. I also loved how Meredith went in knowing it
would be dangerous but also knowing this was an important part of the man she
loves so she wants to make it work and improve things.
There
was lots of everything we love in these stories from romance (Can I say enough
how cute Meredith and Donovan are together) to pack politics, mystery, suspense
and tons of action. There is so much
happening you can't put the book down for a second. From getting to know some new players to
seeing our old favorites it flew by and as always I need more. I can't wait for book seven in the series and
I'd be happy to follow any of our couples around but I can't wait to see what
happens with the Celtic Pack.
Until
next time…
