BLURB:
An omega raised as a wealthy human in the lap of luxury… A Harley riding alpha who rules a pack of pot-growing wolves in a commune… what was fate thinking?
Sky Blackwood is an omega wolf who’s only ever lived a fabulous, all-too-human existence in the wilds of… Beverly Hills. A place where your best friend will smile in your face while stabbing you in the back if there’s money or fame involved.
He’s heard about fated mates and the old-school shifters who still live in packs, but those were just stories. Until they aren’t. Sold by his family, Sky’s saved from the auctioneer’s block by Devon—a sexy alpha wolf who looks like surfer Thor, drives an even sexier Harley, and smells like everything Sky never knew he wanted.
If fated mates are real, what if all those other stories about packlife are as well?
Sky feels like he’s on the best adventure ever as he learns to live like a shifter. With Devon’s help, he’s ready to settle into the peaceful commune life. Only problem? Even paradise can be a camouflage for something darker.
Having grown up among people who hid their evil behind friendly smiles and designer clothes, Sky soon realizes Devon needs help if they’re to survive the unseen threat. He’s not worried, he was taught to “handle people” from the cradle, a few hippies with criminal intentions shouldn’t be too difficult, right?
The pack’s problems are easy to fix, but his real issue… not so much. What exactly is expected of an omega and how is he supposed to actually do it? Fortunately, his mate’s brothers know a few omegas who are all too happy to help.
The West Coast Wolves is an mpreg series about five alphas. A small pack of bikers who spent years riding the highways and helping those in need until fate gave them each a pack to lead. This full-length novel is Devon’s story. Prepare yourself for a dual pregnancy, an omega discovering his power, and more giggles than are appropriate during violent scenes. But then again, this is a Susi Hawke book, so what else can you expect?
REVIEW:
I knew the minute that Sky was rescued and Devon was his partner, there was going to be a lot more to this story. I had a feeling some of the old was going to creep into this newness as well as some major changes. Only one thing surprised me that I was expecting to happen that didn’t. And that was Sky’s family. But in the end, we find out why and it’s a hoot.
Sky had a specialness to him from the get go. I knew as soon as Devon sniffed him out amongst all the bad, there was going to more to this. I was right on quite a few instances in this book, and boy was I glad to see Sky finally come into his own. And did he ever. He flourished from the minute Devon wrapped his arms around him and never stopped. And to me that’s just part of what made him so special. Despite being in the situation he was in, he held his head high. OH he was scared to a point, yes, but he was going to hold himself with dignity and I admire that in him. What I love about Devon is that from the beginning he let Sky be who he was made to be. His equal, his mate, and most of all, himself. He didn’t discourage Sky from being anything other than who he was, and because of it, they both learned a lot more about each other, their ‘brothers’, and the packs in general.
It takes someone strong but knowing when to hold their tongue and keep the peace to be able to run things sometimes. Sometimes you need the flat out power of someone like Devon to make things come out quickly, but sometimes it takes someone like Sky to hold back Devon’s tongue for a bit in order for him to see the bigger picture of things. And Devon really needed that in Sky. Sky’s special gift helped save many of things going on, because he knew who to trust and who not to and it went a long way in making things to the point of mending.
There’s no doubt these two were meant to be together and to bring the pack together in the way it was meant to be.
And with everything that’s coming up from the end of this book, it’s going to be needed more than ever. If everyone can stop laughing, that is.
