I thoroughly enjoyed this collection. Each book in this collection is reviewed separately.
Alpha’s Wolf – This book was great. I loved how Frankie and Liam met when Frankie nearly hit Liam in his Jeep in a rain storm. I really enjoyed that Frankie was a alpha sized omega which is different than the previous stories especially for the wolves as their omegas are more compact sized. I also loved that he hated anything to do with traditional omega like cooking but Liam his alpha is the cook at the B&B that he owns so it works out great for them. I loved their plan on delegating like Liam will do all the cooking and when they have cubs Liam is happy to look after them and Frankie will deal with them when their teenagers, but they both wouldn’t be able to not be involved in looking after and loving any cubs they’re blessed with. I loved that this book featured more magic with Frankie being from one of the original omega lines which makes him great with numbers that makes him so awesome with his computer hacking and he’s also a healer. I loved that he’s not meant to share his healing gifts with anyone who isn’t a founding family apart from his mate but at only the right time. I loved the relationship between Frankie and Jules. I’m happy that Frankie and Liam gave a home to Drew when he asked if he could stay there as he doesn’t want to go back to the den by himself since his best friend mated his alpha sister, they kind of adopted him. I’m looking forward to see what happens in their fight/war with the Rogues and Drew deserves to find his happy ever after, after losing so much.
Alpha’s Redemption – It was cool to finally meet Hector whose dad is the Chieftain who tried to purchase Diego as a mate before he fled. He came to America after having prophetic dreams featuring Diego’s face, he knew he had to locate Diego but it had nothing to do with their arranged mating he just wanted to know if Diego was happy and safe as in his dream he looked extremely upset plus Hector felt like he had to be at the Den for some reason. It became clearer when he met Liam and Frankie and his fated mate Drew. Both Frankie and Hector are from the original lines Frankie’s gift pass from omega to omega and Hector’s gifts pass from alpha to alpha. I loved how perfect Hector and Drew are together, as Drew’s always dreamed of travelling the world and Hector does that constantly but his home base is in his village in Belize since he’s the Chieftain’s son and them both loving pretty underwear, Drew loves wearing it and Hector loves admiring it. I loved Drew’s labour/ birth situation and being in the B&B’s dining room when labour hit full force. I loved how magical their cubs are and can’t wait to see what’s in store for them and Frankie and Liam’s twins. I would’ve loved a bit more on their trip to Belize and Jules, Sean and Colin and Diego and Stefan’s trip back home after they both fleeing when their uncle and dad trying to force them into arranged matings.
Alpha’s Solstice – I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I loved seeing what’s everyone been up to in the decade since the war with the Rogues ended, how their families have grown since they were first introduced and I’m really glad that the Pack and the Den are still close allies, even though had no doubts that they would be. I also loved getting snippets of each fated mate couple as they find a few moments together in between dealing with the pubs and cubs.
I’d definitely recommend this collection, each book in the series and author to everyone.
Resolution
I love the fact that we are able to continue to have couples meet and start their relationships. We find out about new levels of shifter history. There was a lot of tension as we moved through the stages of the war and it was good to have things resolved. I loved the finally book in the series that was like an epilogue for all the previous stories in both series’s and also some foreshadowing of things to come.
This bundle was the conclusion for the Northern Pine Den Alphas while also setting us up for the next series, The Blood Legacy Chronicles. These books contain violence due to the Rogue War, but it also ends on a super sweet and fluffy Yuletide party that acts as a big epilogue. We get to revisit with all our favorite characters from Northern Pack Lodge and Northern Pine Den. This series is fun, easy reading, and full of fluff and sex. I like reading these stories as a bundle since it helps with the flow of the stories.
Narration: I also listened to this bundle on audiobook after I read the series. John Solo should be given an award for his performance in Alpha’s Solstice! The amount of voices he had to do and remember was incredible. I really enjoyed listening to this series. John Solo brought the characters to life.
Overall Rating: 3.75 Stars. I’m sad to see this series end. The characters are wonderful and the writing was decent. I really enjoyed it.
4.5 stars
Heat Level: 4+
Another wonderful collection!
Alpha’s Wolf – I loved Liam and Frankie! I think Frankie was one of my favorite characters! I love the juxtaposition of size and ‘rank’ and ingrained ‘role’ even in Alpha/Omega stories. I’ve been loving this collection and each couple has been great and I’ve loved the overarching ‘war’ storyline!
Alpha’s Redemption – Another great pairing and I’m so glad Drew found his Alpha, he’s such a sweetie! The end of the rouge war is intense and Susi did so well in staying true to each character and pairing that I was saddened for Alpha Mikael in the end but a fierce battle was fought.
Alpha’s Solstice – The perfect ending!!! We get to see all the couples again and see how their lives had continued and turned out 10 years later! I loved the ability to revisit all these couples and the surprise situation they find themselves in is hilariously perfect. not many authors have done a book like this and to be able to revisit some fav characters was just wonderful, thanks, Susi!
I loved this whole series and the perfect collection of Bears, Wolves, and Jaguars!!!
Thanks for reading! For great stories, reviews and more please visit https://bookstattoosandtea.wordpress.com
This is the second bundle of the Northern Pined Den Alphas series… and it’s just as amazing. It finally concludes the drama of Mikael’s sister and her war with our guys. It introduces us to a new magical aspect of the shifters. It is definitely a satisfying and recommended read.
