My review of Alpha Instinct by Katie Reus!

In Alpha Instinct, the main character is Ana Cordona. She becomes the Alpha for her pack of werewolves, after all of the males and the pregnant females are killed in a tragic act of hatred. She is headstrong and independent. She has the weight of the world on her shoulders, as she is the type to put everyone else's needs before her own. She feels that she has to take care of everyone at all costs!

Connor Armstrong is strong, possessive, territorial, and stubborn. He and Ana haven't seen each other for fifty years. The last time they seen each other, they were best friends who both wanted more from their relationship. He left without saying goodbye to her. He had his reasons for leaving, but doesn't want to discuss them with Ana. When he refuses to tell her what his reasons were, she reacts the way most females would and assumes the worst.

Conner and his pack appear one day out of the blue. He offers Ana and her pack his protection. There is only one condition, he wants her to be his bondmate. She is leery because she loved him before and he left her without a word. She was devastated and heartbroken, and the wound never completely healed. She feels that if he did it once, he may decide to leave her again and she's not sure that her heart could take it again.

Ana goes through so much. She is being threatened by a neighboring pack. Someone is trying to harm the people she cares about. And she battles with herself, over her feelings for Connor.

It would be impossible to be bored while reading this book because it has such an interesting plot. It has all of the elements needed for a good  story. There was action, romance, and lots of mystery all rolled up into one great adventure! It was a good start to a new series. I look forward to reading the next book in the Moon Shifter series.

I would recommend this to everyone who likes paranormal romance, werewolf books, or just a really good read. I could not put it down!


My rating: 4/5 stars

I'm reading Alpha Instinct (Moon Shifter #1) !

I was lucky enough to win an ARC of Alpha Instinct by Katie Reus!



Synopsis from the back of the book:

Fear has a scent. So does desire…  


Ana Cordona has been a strong leader for the lupine shifters who survived after all the males and most of the females in her pack were mysteriously poisoned. As tough as she is, with no Alpha male, the pack is vulnerable to the devious shifter Taggart, who wants to claim both their ranch and Ana as his own. When Connor Armstrong comes back into her life, promising protection, it’s almost enough to make Ana forget how he walked out on her before—and reluctantly accept his offer to mate.


The minute Connor sees Ana again, it reawakens a raw hunger. He must have her for his bondmate—his wolf cries out for it. But his human side knows he must proceed with caution because of their complicated past. If he is to truly have her body and soul, he must go beyond his burning desire and win back her heart. Whatever it takes, he is determined not to leave her side again.


But Taggart and his rival pack are not their only enemies. A human element in town is targeting shifters. Their plan not only threatens Ana and Connor’s future, but the lives of the entire pack

Sound Good? You can get your copy on February 7, 2012, when it will be released .
