Being Alpha: A Paranormal Shifter Romance (Olde Town Pack Book 3) Kindle Edition

by Katie Salidas (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.2 out of 5 stars 73
See all formats and editions
Newly minted Regional Alpha, Aeson Silverman hit the jackpot. Power, prestige, and wealth, he's got everything a wolf-shifter could ask for.
Except love.

From award-winning author, Katie Salidas, comes an original werewolf romance that will make your pulse race and heart pound.

Despite devastatingly good looks and an impressive wit, Aeson Silverman can't seem to get Emma MacBride, the hottie doctor from an ally pack, to give him the time of day.

Unfortunately a bruised ego is only the beginning of Aeson's troubles.

Someone has been poisoning the minds of other territorial Alphas, systematically pitting neighbor against neighbor. With Ace now the new head of the Long Teeth territory, the rising storm of dissension has scented weakness and found its way into his pack, threatening everyone including the woman he's determined to make his mate.

With tempers on a hair trigger, every choice the young Alpha makes is under scrutiny, and the last thing Ace needs is the death of another high ranking wolf to happen on his watch. The fate of his love, pack, and leadership depend on how quickly he can sniff out and neutralize the enemy hiding under his very nose.

The Olde Town Pack characters also belong to the Immortalis Series and Little Werewolf series by Katie Salidas.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Perfect Book
Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2017

I was very impressed once again qith this added book to the Old Town collection. It must be hard for an Alpha not to have a woman grovel at his feet. This is the perfect book that shows that that once in awhile love doesn't automatically happen.

I actually enjoyed a story where people find each other throughout the story, but with the war going on around them will they come together before it's too late. Come and enjoy this story with me, you won't regret it.

Until Next Time.... Tabi

This was a really good book, there was a lot to it. I loved the twists and turns, the mystery to solve. I also liked how things went slower between the two falling for each other, in most other books it's instant everything. Just all around great read.

5.0 out of 5 stars She didn't care about him being Alpha she wanted him to be himself.
Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2017
Emma is the doctor from the Olde Town Pack. After their battle with rival packs she is responsible for the care and evaluation of a captured Alpha who seems to have twisted skills of getting into other wolves minds. She is horrified by Leif and is glad when they take him to the council meeting for a trial.
Aeson is the new alpha of the Long tooth pack. He is enjoying the wealth and power and women his new position brings. However he has been chosen to host the council meeting and trial. This is something totally new for him and he is nervous and stressed. It doesn't help that when he meets the Old Towne delegation, his wolf takes notice of Emma. He wants to impress her so he shows off his power and territory. Emma is a high ranking wolf herself so she is not impressed with his show. She is attracted to Aeson but he is acting conceited.
Wolf politics are making this council meeting difficult and when delegates turn up dead, Emma and Eason have their hands full figuring out what is really happening. Emma gets to see the real wolf behind the alpha and she is definitely interested.
This a great story with lots of twist and turns. I really liked Aeson and Emma. I voluntarily read a copy of this story and this is my honest review.

5.0 out of 5 stars Game of Thrones for werewolves
Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2017
I love this bridge between the Little Werewolf and Olde Town Pack series. It's like Game of Thrones for werewolves. There's so much going on within the pages of this book, I don't even know where to begin. There's the fallout from the failed overthrow of the Olde Town Pack, but when all's said and done, that's just the tip of the iceberg. With non-stop intrigue and action, the budding romance between Ace and Emma could have easily been overshadowed. Instead, it acted as a catalyst to bring the pair closer together. I can't wait to see what happens next for my favorite werewolves.
I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars My favorite book thus far in the Olde Town pack series
Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2017
My favorite book thus far in the Olde Town pack series. The other books in the series have been pretty sexy and this one is more of a mystery/suspense. The plot makes it work so well I love it! The chemistry between the two leads builds as the intrigue and action flow for a fantastic combination that I could not set down. Emma is my favorite character so far, strong, smart, and reeling from a broken heart as she tries to unleash her inner cougar. Young alpha, Ace has his hands full but manages to find time for a little flirting while crap hits the fan all around. Heart pounding action and a sweet flirtation for a great read with characters I want to see more of. My voluntary review is based upon an ARC.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Alpha goes on trial!
Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2017
You would imagine that being made Alpha over a pack of wolves would be easy. Well when faced with your own family not to mention other Alpha's coming into your territory it's not exactly a walk in the park and that's exactly the problem that Ace is faced with. As an ally of the Olde Town pack he's been asked to host a summit to determine if scheming Alpha Leif should forfeit his life. Clearly Leif has those loyal to him but can Ace keep control over the proceedings? Dissent and treachery seem rife and then there's the tricky problem of the attraction Ace has for the cool doctor who has arrived. Emma isn't exactly bowled over by Ace as he struggles to impress her and challenges him at every turn. Yet when a body is discovered it's time to set aside prejudices and work together before more bodies start to turn up!
I thoroughly enjoyed this authors Chronicles of the Uprising series and it's a huge recommendation from me but I'm a little disappointed by this take by her on wolves. I realise that this book connects with others that I've not yet read but it just lacked something for me. I think it's possibly that the characters felt human and there is very little that sets them apart as shifters. I'd expect a wolf to have amazing senses such as hearing and smell so when something bad happens they could react quickly but no villains just creep about which meant I couldn't believe in their 'otherness '.
It does have suspense running throughout and the overall plot held my attention with an evil manipulative villain and the surprises kept on coming. Ace is still feeling his way and I liked that he occasionally struggled with his new mantle. What I really didn't like was the romance that felt forced. We are meant to believe this couple have chemistry and frankly I didn't detect any so even though I could empathise with Ace unfortunately his scenes with the prickly Emma just left me cold. Plus the end felt extremely rushed and that's possibly the only time that I believed that these characters had a animalistic blood thirsty side. This doesn't deserve a three rating as I enjoyed the suspense so I will post as a four.
This voluntary take is of an advance copy and my thoughts and comments are honest and I believe fair
