“Origins” is a prequel of sorts to Alexa Whitewolf’s “Moonlight Rogues” series. The book explores the background story of the four main characters in the series, Lucas, Dom, Finn and Tristan, before the meet each other in the States. These four stories can be read at any time in the series, as a proper prequel, after enjoying the full-length books (makes for a fabulous dessert!), and of course in between books to gain insight into each of the characters, before delving into the full-length story of each given character.
“Origins” is a real treat, for both fans of the series, and newcomers that would like to find out more about the Moonlight Rogues series, before committing to the full-length books
ONE HUMDINGER OF A COLLECTION!!!
Sensational! Alexa brought it with this hot little number, making sure all of our emotions were in play full force, blasting these incredible and immersive tales together in one location, binding this bad boy together flawlessly. Quirky mishaps and funky happenstance, showcase the heart pounding trials and pulse racing tribulations, stumbling through the crazy twists and wicked turns, testing them in ways they never saw coming. Braided, coiled and tightly woven, displaying the rocketing ups and agonizing downs, grounding in it’s simplicity and awe inspiring in it’s depth. Each individual story is excellent with separate plots, goals and destinations. They’re all winners in my book. The attraction and chemistry sizzles from the pages and suck you in so deeply until you feel the heat and electricity thrumming through your veins. The characters are authentic and realistic with depth and qualities that transform into outstanding personalities. The scenes are strikingly sharp with abundant details and descriptions creating a colorful backdrop that makes the storylines explodes. Remarkable job Alexa, thanks for sharing this awesome little bundle with us.
I know I shouldn’t have read the prequel after all other books in the series, but it only made it that much sweeter (even though the stories of these tortured heroes aren’t exactly sweet). Going back in time and exploring more of each wolf’s backstory felt like a much needed revisit of an old favorite place you haven’t gone to in a while. Because that’s just how these endearing characters grow on you. Yes, their pasts were grim. Yes, their sorrows were gut-wrenching. Yes, they didn’t get their happily ever afters here. But for me, the bittersweet factor of leaving Moonlight Rogues Origins for the end was worth it.
If you haven’t picked up one of the Moonlight Rogues books, don’t just sit there …go get started!
Moonlight Rogues: Origins is actually Moonlight Rogues 0.5. So it is the start of everything. It introduces each of our wolves, where they came from before they ended up at Rockland Creek, how they met and became a pack. We get a peek at what their lives were like before ending up Rockland Creek. Four beautiful Alphas with disturbing backgrounds.
This can be read after reading the other books in the series. I’ve read it after Second To Surrender (Moonlight Rogues 2). It has only made me love my wolves more!!! Especially Lucas, that wolf has definitely won my heart.
I highly recommend this Prequel to the Moonlight Rogues series, plus I highly, highly recommend the series itself!!!!! These werewolves are unlike any you’ve read about before!!! 5+ howling stars!
