AUTHOR: Parker Williams
PUBLISHER: Self Published
LENGTH: 186 Pages

BLURB:
All rabbit shifter Alpin Dawkins wanted was some peace and quiet. Being kidnapped and trundled off to a lab to undergo six years of sadistic experiments wasn’t what he had in mind. And now all he wants is to go home.
Although Malachi Kurian spent years training to be a First, the leader of his wolf pack, he had no desire to be at anyone’s beck and call, so he ran. Life as a lone wolf worked out great – until the night he heard the screams.
He might have escaped, but Alp is certain this time he’s going to die. When a wolf kills his pursuers, Alp fears he’s about to be on the menu.
He never expects the wolf will save him, or come to love him.
Now all they have to do is rescue the others still held in the labs….
REVIEW:
I have to start by saying I totally missed this release, so when I found out I quickly contacted the author asking if I could still get an arc.
I always enjoy stepping into a world created by Parker Williams. I like the world building or the setting depending on the genre and I appreciate the easy connection with the characters because of his writing.
That being said I was very curious to start this new series. For me a good shifter story makes me want to step into that world, walk the road with the characters.
From the start of this book it tugs at your heartstrings and you cannot help the feelings that happen when you meet Alp and find out his story.
And then, of course, there is Mal, big strong wolf. He’s a lone wolf by choice, who could never have guessed that his world would get turned up side down by a little tiny rabbit shifter.
Alp’s story is heartbreaking and yet he feels he needs to do what is right and like the blurb says, he sets out on a quest to save others.
What I really liked about this story is that this is not just Mal and Alp and their coming together. It is so much more. It doesn’t end there and full disclosure it even gets better after that.
With Mal contacting his former pack it introduces us to his former First, Damon and his First Mate Cece, as well as their entourage (or should I say Cece’s entourage 😉 ) and I just love them all. I sure hope there is a story there for the two brothers serving as Cece’s sidekicks.
I noticed that I got totally involved in their background stories, their quest to do what was right together with Mal and Asp and it made this story even better and more developed.
Do I need to mention the easy writing and storytelling by the author? I think that has been said within the lines and anyone who has read a story by this author has come to expect that.
As this is book one in the series, I can assume author Parker Williams is setting us, readers up for an exploration of all these characters The guys from the lab or the former packmembers perhaps?
Time will tell. I for one am excited and looking forward to the next story, for sure.
