I absolutely loved the heroine’s voice–she was tough yet vulnerable, and even better–funny. The authors don’t skimp on the sexytimes, and if you like commanding alpha men with some kink thrown in, this is for you.
The hero is light on the consent and heavier on the “I take/punish what’s mine” and it’s convenient that the heroine wants those things, too. That said, I’m somewhat sensitive to consent issues and this approach didn’t bother me.
I love shifter books with sexytimes, sass, and suspense, and this book delivered all three.
This is a really great book! Super steamy! I love that this book has a happily ever after!
Loved it.
Alpha’s Temptation by Renee Rose & Lee Savino is a fantastic paranormal romance. Ladies Rose and Savino have given readers a book that is well-written and filled with sass and snark. This is a fairly quick read, perfect for those with limited reading time. Kylie gets a job at Jackson’s business and is set up to get the blame for the attack on Jackson’s company and her grandmother is kidnapped. Kylie and Jackson’s story is loaded with drama, humor, smokin’ hot sex, action and suspense. I enjoyed this book and look forward to my next book by Renee Rose & Lee Savino. Alpha’s Temptation is book 1 of the Bad Boy Alphas Series but can be read as a standalone. This is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger.
Hot Dog-I mean Wolf, an exciting erotic, story that keeps you on edge as the story evolves from love to feeling betrayed, a kidnapping and a surprise ending, these two authors never fail to give their readers a wonderful read.
A pleasant story. I love how strong the heroine is when it had to do with everything but the bedroom. Though some of that seemed too quick out of character for him. Overall, a nice story and a happy ending.
This is a highly entertaining twisted action packed story. That will keep you on your toes all the while steaming up your kindle. The heat that comes off from these two characters is off the chart. The story has twists you just do not see coming till they hit!
A great story that you won’t be able to put down! Kylie and Jackson have chemistry from the first time they meet. I loved the depth of this story and the way the characters developed naturally. The conflict was realistic and twisted and still easy to read. I loved the build up of the sensual scenes, it felt organic and real. I loved the way the espionage played out and the surprise that Meme held. This book was hard to put down!
Book 1, Bad Boy Alphas series. Renee Rose and Lee Savino have a winning erotic paranormal romance on their hands!
Alpha’s Temptation is the first in a new series of paranormal shapeshifter erotic romances by the very talented authors Renee Rose and Lee Savino. I fell in love with this story, and I think you will as well.
Jackson King is the CEO and founder of SeCure, a data security company located in Tucson, Arizona. He’s built the company from the ground up. Although he’s wealthy beyond belief, he now hates his job as CEO when all he really cares about is writing code and getting into the real business of the company, like he did when he first started. He’s a solitary, lonely, unhappy man. But when fate literally throws claustrophobic new job applicant Kylie McDaniel into his arms in a very small and disabled elevator car, things suddenly take a change, and not necessarily for the better. You see, Jackson isn’t only the CEO of SeCure. He’s an alpha wolf shifter, a lone wolf without a pack. And he has secrets and problems of which no one is aware. Kylie also has her own secrets, secrets that are just as dangerous and life-threatening to her as Jackson’s are to him. There’s an instant attraction between the two, one that both fight for differing and very valid reasons but they fight it nonetheless.
Against this backdrop, there are also hidden dangers against Jackson, his company, Kylie, and her remaining family. All of these seem inexplicably intertwined. What, exactly, is going on? Who’s behind the threats to both Jackson and Kylie? No one seems to know if the threats are even serious enough to take seriously, much less where they’re coming from. And what of the attraction between Kylie and Jackson? Jackson has very good reason to stay away from Kylie. She’s human. He’s a shifter. He can’t give in to the attraction. That could prove deadly! But there are secrets surrounding both of which neither are aware. Will those secrets come to light? If so, how will they affect Kylie, Jackson, and the people they love and hold dear to their hearts? For there are truly life-altering and potentially lethal events building around them every day, and if they don’t listen to their instincts and pay attention with great care, it could bring their entire worlds crashing down around them.
Renee Rose and Lee Savino are both unbelievable authors. I’ve long been a fan of both, and I’ve truly taken great delight in reading every one of their books that I can get my hands on. Alpha’s Temptation is an exceptional beginning to a new erotic paranormal series. I absolutely loved this book and flew through it. I was pulled into the story from the moment I started reading. I can’t wait for the next book in this series! I give Alpha’s Temptation my highest recommendation. Thank you, Renee and Lee, for giving us such an wonderful book that demonstrates just how truly talented you both are as authors and your extraordinary writing gifts!
One final note. Please be an informed reader and consumer! This is an ADULT book. It contains explicit language and sexual scenes. If you don’t enjoy this genre, think hard before buying any book you know you won’t enjoy. There are book synopses and reviews available on Goodreads and all booksellers’ websites. USE THESE RESOURCES. DON’T LEAVE A NEGATIVE REVIEW WHEN YOU KNOW YOU WON’T ENJOY THE BOOK. IT’S NOT FAIR TO THE AUTHOR! She works extremely hard to provide a quality work product. If you know you’ll object to the book’s subject matter before you buy it, you’re doing yourself and the author an extreme disservice.
Thanks for reading my review and happy reading!
Wow a seamless integration of authors. Normally you can tell who wrote what parts. Renee Rose and Lee Savino have done a wonderful job and I can’t wait for the next part. I’ve listened to the audio version.
The narrator brings the story to life.

Hacked by catgirl
These two ladies have really outdone themselves with this series. This first book starts us on a journey to a place where the alpha males know who they want and won’t stop until they get them. Of course they will make mistakes, what alpha male isn’t emotional, but lucky for them their women are the forgiving sort. I enjoyed this first book and was so happy when these two managed to make it to their HEA. I’m really looking forward to the next book in the series.

A Billionaire Werewolf Romance….
Hello, you had me at Billionaire…. Then I saw werewolf…. and I couldn’t one-click fast enough! I have absolutely loved EVERYTHING I have ever read of Ms. Rose’s, and Ms. Savino’s, and believe me I’ve read a LOT, and this book was no different. Yes, it’s a billionaire romance, and yes there are a plethora of them available in the marketplace- so it takes some skill and quite a bit of originality to get one to stand out from the crowd, which I firmly believe that the authors have done, incredibly well. I was hooked right from seeing the cover- so to find it was such an engrossing, well written, and sizzling story wasn’t a surprise- I expected nothing less from Ms. Rose and Ms. Savino. I devoured the book in one easy sitting and have already ploughed my way through a good portion of the rest of the series. Just love them!
Jackson King is a billionaire cyber security king- founder and owner of SeCure, savvy businessman, philanthropist, and WEREWOLF. He’s a ‘lone-wolf’, not having or belonging to a pack since he was 10 years old when he was outcast from his pack. He’s never been attracted to a human, before now- and he really shouldn’t, especially for an employee.
Kylie McDaniel is a programmer and internet security specialist- something she’s extremely good at considering her hacker background. But she’s gone legit- no really she has- but nine years earlier, as a wayward teen, she managed to hack into SeCure’s system- which is a bit ironic considering she’s interviewing for a job there. Kylie really wants this job, plus she may have a slight obsession with the owner. So, when she gets stuck in a blacked out elevator with a sexy stranger, which results in an embarrassing panic attack- when the lights come back on she’s mortified to find ‘who’ was in the elevator with her- she convinced she won’t be getting the job now. What happens next makes for a really great read. Highly recommended!
The story was witty, funny, sizzling HOT, intriguing, suspenseful, and clever. It’s told from several POV’s which allowed me to really immerse myself in the story, and invest in the characters- whilst getting my hate on for the baddie.
Paranormal romance done extremely well!
Thank you, Ms. Rose and Ms. Savino!
I loved this book so much, I literally bought a Kindle so I could read the series (they’re not all on apple).
Red hot, page burner!!!!
Ok so you know a book is good when you get mad if you don’t get to read it during the day. I was so wrapped up in this story that I read at every moment I possibly could. I absolutely loved this book.
A hacker with a crush on a wolf/billionaire whose code she broke 8 years earlier, goes to work for said wolf/billionaire. She gets blackmailed into infecting his system. The two of them attempt to figure out who is behind it. This story has twists and turns, betrayal and keeps you turning pages to get answers. Loved the characters, Kylie and Jackson are such interesting people with secrets. Through all the ups and downs, the secrets and perceived betrayal love does conquer all. Loved this book and looking forward to the next one. These authors know how to pull you in and keep you riding the wave of the story, and feeling the emotions of the characters.
Great read with awesome characters
This book was a wonderful distraction into another time and place! I enjoy being taken away in a good book.
Alpha’s Temptation is the first book of the “Bad Boy Alpha’s Series” by Renee Rose and Lee Savino. The writing talent of these two is phenomenal and the story literally flies off the pages and will keep you captivated.
Kylie has been a hacker since she was a small child. At the 13, she’s the only person to have ever broke the code of SeCure successfully. Her admiration of the Jackson King, owner and CEO, has manifested itself into a full blown crush throughout the years so when she received an opportunity to interview for a position with the company she jumped on the chance. The only problem, is making sure no one finds out she’s the one who breached their security.
Jackson King is known for his aloof, dominant, and controlling personality within the company. He doesn’t make friends or interact personally with any of them. He has his secrets and intends to keep it that way.
As happens with shifters, fate will play a part in this storyline causing twists and turns that will bring these two together and pull them apart in such drastic measures it will keep your intrigue.
Not only are they trying to put pieces of a puzzle together, but if you’re into that dominant, no holds barred, spanking as punishment alpha (as is the case) you won’t be disappointed reading this one. Great book
