Publisher's summary

Can one human handle three alpha werewolves? Dylan Landry is about to find out...

Dylan Landry feels like he's walked straight into an alternate universe. Werewolves—big, muscular, alpha werewolves—are throwing themselves at him left and right, and he has no idea why.

There's nothing special about him. He's just your average grad student working on his thesis and trying to get by in the big city. There's no reason for werewolf alphas to be striking up conversations, pressing close when they talk to him, and asking him out on dates while they look him up and down like they want to eat him—but they are.

It's ridiculously confusing.

For August, Ryker, and Steve, the alpha werewolves in question, there's nothing ridiculous or confusing at all about wanting Dylan. The human smells like the word mate incarnate, and he's so achingly perfect that the idea of not having him is too terrible to even consider. Sweet, eager to please, and unexpectedly funny, he's everything they could ever want in a mate.

With three of them and only one of Dylan, August, Ryker, and Steve are going to have to figure out how to make this work. Someone has to be left out in the cold, and no one wants it to be them. After all, it's not like they can share.

One human couldn't possibly handle three alpha werewolves... could he?

Alpha Bait is a paranormal romance about an adorable grad student who catches the attention of three dominant alpha werewolves. The story contains evil alphas (not the main characters), pack politics, and three knot-headed alphas who fall head over heels in love with their human. The story features bondage, muscle worship, and medical play. It has a happily ever after and no cliffhanger.

Narration Added So Much!

So as another reviewer mentioned, DJ Heart has a very specific style with lots of sex and pushing boundaries. There was actually more plot than I was expecting and I enjoyed seeing how the four guys came together. I thought both narrators did a really great job with the narration and had pretty distinct voices for the four main characters (and wow, Connor Brown's alpha voices were good!). Really hoping DJ Heart gives Marcus a story and these same narrators do that one too!

4.5 Stars ...Werewolves, BDSM and Pack politics

So glad D.J. Heart finally did an audiobook of his work and I would love to listen to more! If you like a bit of the rougher side of BDSM, Alpha attitudes, knotting and a submissive Omega, you'll love this book that has both heart and heat. The narration was very good and I would enjoy listening to more if this was an expanded series, a few good side characters make me think it could be a possibility!

So much s*x!

I will tell you right now, if you don’t like lots and lots of graphic BDSM s*x. This is not the book for you. This was 21 hours of one going BDSM scenes with a sprinkle of plot dispersed throughout. I finished it but I can definitely see this not being everyone’s thing. The narration was great. For me personally I would have preferred a more equal amount of plot to smut ratio. As it stands this book is about 20% plot and 80% smut. And hey ! If that does it for you more power to ya, no shame. This is the book for you and I hope you have fun. 😊

My Top Book for April.

I love the length of the book. I like books like this that's not afraid to point out the small stuff and has a lot of twisting terms. It takes time to develop each character so you can get to know and love them.

The story needs work but it’s amazing overall

If you prefer heavy smut with little plot development then this is the story for you. I love smut as much as the next gay reader, it’s just a little sad that the story barely had any development. But I still love this and recommend it highly

I said I loved it, I didn't say it was good

First and foremost if you are not familiar with DJ Heart, get familiar. They have a certain style and it is not for everyone. If you like them you'll like this.

If you're here for gratuitous sex with a little bit of plot in between you're in correct place.

Narration is the reason I'm writing this review. I love the narrators BUT the narration lost a star because too often the K sound in Ryker was not hit strongly enough and I kept hearing Ryder. Chapter 12 (Chapter 13 in the audio book chapter list) drove me up the wall with this.

Hot Hot Hot

I enjoyed the story, the narrators, and the twists and turns. I can wait to hear more!

Three Alpha Werewolf Daddies & Their Human Omega!

Having read and loved how filthy and raunchy Heart's other books have been, I knew I had to try this bad boy out being on audio! As mentioned before with the filthiness and raunch level, loved it all and then some! Definitely was utterly sexy, hot, and brutal at times! Especially loved how August, Ryker, and Steve would bully and manhandle Dylan! Even with all that being wonderful, the issues I did have with the story were:

1. Dylan's friend Annie was the typical nosy, annoying type that was grating.
2. Way, and I mean way too much {swallowing, squealing, licking and biting lips}.
3. Dylan was a hot mess & with unbelievable parts
4. Epilogue was okay but rushed.

Aside from those factors that brought this down for me, I will assuredly give Mr. Dicosimo and Mr. Brown several rounds of applause for how amazing they performed this story! Loved how deep, gruff, and obviously sexy their voices were! Overall, if the issues I stated are not a problem for you, and the kinks/dynamic is up your alley, I would highly recommend giving this a listen! A lengthy audiobook that would be great to play while going about your day!

Fetishized kinks in a new relationship

I love reading about Fated Mates and shapeshifters but this story covered both but when it kept talking about the kinks they wanted to push this regular human too was a different story completely. I would not have paid for it with my credits nor my cash.
