Alpha's Bane: Second Chance Romance (Bad Boy Alphas Book 9)

Alpha's Bane is a stand-alone second-chance shifter romance. No cheating or cliff-hangers. It will have people from the Phoenix and Tucson packs, along with issues with vampires. The story is full of emotions, angst, betrayal, heartache, young love, and second chances. It will bring Sheridan Green and Trey Robson back together after twelve years.Sheridan and Trey were high school sweethearts. Where she comes from an Alpha lineage and has advantages, money, and a family with power, she never flaunts her family’s power. She works hard in school, and going to Stanford was her father’s pushing, not her own. Trey’s father kills a human and put him and his mother at the mercy of the pack, one that Green enjoys keeping a thumb on. He doesn’t see Trey as worthy of his daughter and his plans for her.The plot will have Sheridan being sent to Tucson to investigate the Shifter Fight Club, which is being run by Trey, and not the pack. Her Alpha and father send her to see what she can do to shut it down, not realizing who is running it. Trey isn’t the young wolf who was banished from the pack, along with her cousin, Garret Green, and Jared. The three wolves moved to Tucson and developed a pack with Garrett as Alpha.What a shock for Sheridan to come into Shifter Fight Club and there are not only shifters but leeches in attendance, this in itself is alarming. Once again, seeing Trey face to face brings back so many memories, some sweet and others painful. Twelve years is a long time, but she has never forgotten him, or him her.The story will have Sheridan working between the shifters and vampires on a treaty to try and keep humans unaware of the paranormals around them. But when a human is found dead just outside of Shifter Fight Club, this has both sides uneasy. The death indicates a vampire, but the heat will be on all paranormals. Without Sheridan interference, the club is closed down during the investigation.Each chapter will start with something from twelve years past between Sheridan and Trey and then move to the present day. Both of them feel they were betrayed twelve years prior with him breaking up with her and acting like it was time for him to move on and her turning three of them in for their drug deals. Now twelve years later, there are still mixed emotions between them, the hurt of the past, but also there is still simmering passion and sexual tension present.“I don’t tell him that after we broke up, I examined my life. On the surface, I went to college and did everything to be the perfect she-wolf my parents raised me to be, but underneath, I was digging deep and discovering who I really was. I had Trey to thank, or blame, for the journey. He was the first wolf in my life who saw me, the real me, and loved me all the same. In the end, our relationship was a disaster, but also a gift. I had to give Trey up, but I found myself.”A battle is coming within the paranormal worlds. Two shifters, high school sweethearts and lovers must also confront their past and decide their future. Will love win or will family rule? The story has plenty of sizzling scenes between Trey and Sheridan, some BDSM scenes they witness at a club, and also experience together

Has it really been 16 years? Betrayed by their pack “princess,” Trey followed Garrett and the other young pups from Phoenix to Tucson. No one expected the Tucson pack to survive. But they’ve not only survived—they’ve thrived. When Trey sets up Fight Club, it certainly draws attention…the wrong kind. The entire pack’s now on the FBI and CIA’s radar. And now vampires have shown up? All this gets back to the Phoenix pack, where their Alpha (Garrett’s dad) sends Sheridan Green to investigate and shut down Fight Club. When Sheridan struts in decked out to the nines, no one’s more shocked than she when she finds Trey Robson—except Trey himself. You see, it wasn’t just Sheridan who betrayed Trey and the others. He also betrayed her. But Trey and Sheridan’s issues have to take a back seat when Lucius arrives. Bearing a treaty marking territory for wolves and vampires alike, can Lucius be trusted? Can any vampire? On the eve of the treaty signing, the worst that could happen does, putting Fight Club, the treaty, the entire future of the Tucson pack on the line. Who did this? Why? As Trey and Sheridan fight their chemistry and each other, they both know they have to find the answers. How? Each step puts both in more and more danger. As Sheridan’s life hangs in the balance, Trey realizes he has decisions to make. Should he save her? There’s far more than her life at stake. Suddenly everything comes into focus. Only, is it too late? Has Sheridan been sacrificed and everything lost?Renee Rose and Lee Savino are the dynamic duo of shifter romances. They’re both incredibly talented authors on their own, but when you put them together, you have dynamite. I absolutely loved this story. While this is a standalone book in the series, we have met Trey and the rest of the Tucson pack before. This time Trey is front and center. We finally learn just who and what he is. A shifter, a fighter, capable, hot, sexy, and so much more. Is it any wonder Sheridan fights her attraction to him? And Sheridan? Strong, yet so conflicted on so many levels. Daddy’s little princess vies with the MBA overachiever and again with the chemistry with Trey. Her entire world’s been turned upside down. I love these two! But this book wouldn’t be complete without the cast of supporting characters. As I’ve stated before, I love vampires. Without Lucius and his minions, this story wouldn’t have worked. Add in the entirety of the Tucson and Phoenix packs, and you have the perfect blend of spicy and savory to complete the recipe. This book is fantastic! Renee Rose and Lee Savino have again hit it out of the park. Congratulations, ladies! This book absolutely deserves five stars!A final note. This is an ADULT book. It contains explicit language and sexual scenes. If you don't enjoy this genre, this may not be the book for you. There are book synopses and reviews available on Goodreads and Amazon. Please use these resources. I urge you to leave a review, but with a proviso. Please don’t leave a negative review when you know you won’t enjoy the book. It's not fair to the authors. They work hard to provide a quality work product. If you know you'll object to a book's subject matter before you buy it, you're doing yourself and the authors an extreme disservice.Thanks for reading my review and happy reading!

Audiobook: Narrator – Benjamin SandsMr. Sands does a great job with both the hero and heroine as well as the secondary characters. With his smooth, deep voice, he gave life to Trey especially. This is my second audio by this narrator and I struggled a bit before with his female voice, but this time I didn’t have the same issues and found this go round to be even more enjoyable. I’ll certainly be eager to listen to him again in the future.Years ago, Sheridan ruined Trey’s life as well as those of his friends. They were thrown from the pack and left to pick up the pieces of their life. Now she’s been sent back into his life. Their past is present every time they interact, but through it all is the pull towards each other that they once shared.This was a great first love/second chance audio. This couple had so much heartache from actions they both had taken in the past. I loved watching them work through not only those issues, but the conflicts they face now. With a lot of action, and plenty of time lapses to show us what and how everything went down when they were young, this kept me listening almost non-stop.The relationship between Trey and Sheridan absolutely sizzles with sexual tension and when they act on their attraction my earbuds almost melted. My heart hurt for all they had been through and it did seem an almost insurmountable task for them to get beyond their past. This has some mystery to it that keeps things moving along and allows plenty of alpha goodness to rise up in Trey, which is my jam!Overall, a very nice quick listen that stands alone.

Can two people that seem so different, resolve their conflict and pain from the past and move together into the future? More of the Tucson pack story continues ! Recommended 😃 👍

Alphas Bane was an expertly created ultra universe where Shifters, humans and vampires can co-exist! The characters were created with an artists touch...there emotions painted so realistically I felt thier grief, confusion, horror, betrayals and triumphs! You will laugh, and cry as Sheridan and Trey stumble along thier life’s journey! Caution! Remember to keep breathing while you read!

Beautiful romance.Recommend ❤️

Not usually a fan of second chance books but I really enjoyed this one in the series.She's feisty, smart and caused the Tucson pack to form after getting them kicked out of the Phoenix pack.Trey has never gotten over her called the monk in his pack.Good pace, story and fascinating interaction with vampires... could this be a breakaway series?

There's only a few authors I will follow in a series and Lee & Renee are in the top 5. Like the rest of their books the heroine can be a feisty biatch but also femine, funny and a hothead. The hero is all alpha, so hot, but he can also give in when necessary. The story has hot scenes, dangerous enemies and a pompous father. Challenges in and out of the bedroom and sizzling hot scenes. I highly recommend not only this book but the whole series. No cliff hangers.
