Resumen del Editor

You belong to me and I know it down deep, in muscle and bone, where my wolf lives.

Avery Rhine isn’t an average homicide detective with the Chicago PD. In fact, Avery isn’t an average anything. Sure, as an omega he knows he’s at the bottom of the food chain, but that’s never slowed him down. He’s got a great life, complete with a loving family and a best friend who’d take a bullet for him, so what more could he possibly want or need? Except, maybe, for the world to change. And to find someone to spend more than one night with, but that isn’t high on his list of priorities. He’s never been one to believe in destiny or whatever else the fantasies sell about there being someone special out there meant just for him.

Then a chance encounter at a party changes everything.

Graeme Davenport has no delusions about finding his true mate. The consensus is that if an alpha doesn’t find their other half by the time they’re 30, the chances of it ever happening go from slim to none. He’s not a mere alpha, though; Graeme is a cyne who sits at the pinnacle of lupine hierarchy, so he’s obligated by tradition and duty to choose an omega now, sign a contract, and bond with him. Love is not part of the equation.

When Graeme and Avery meet, their fierce attraction to each other flies in the face of reason and logic. Avery’s intense physical reaction to the alpha is something he’s never experienced before, while Graeme, who has always been the soul of discretion, loses all his inhibitions to desire for the man he wants to possess. They are two very different men trying to navigate expectations, separate reason from innate primal drive, and do it while working together to solve a murder.

It will take everything they are to find a middle ground, and to learn to trust in a fated kind of love.

Perfection

Mary Calmes words plus Greg Boudreaux narration always equals perfection!

I thought this story was magnificent. This author has a way of bringing out a story that keeps you sucked in. I loved the paranormal aspect and the way she weaves the their shifter life into human life. The mystery and suspense kept me on my toes and the characters were wonderful.

Of course Greg Boudreaux nails it with narration as always and continues to be an absolute favorite of mine.

Great new story

I’m a big fan of Mary Calmes books in general and kept getting recommendations to read Muscle and Bone.
Now I can add my voice to those recommendations. I thoroughly enjoyed the book and of course Greg Boudreaux’s narration is top notch.

Muscle and Bone

Muscle and Bone by Mary Calmes
1st book in the Breaking Tradition series. Paranormal M-M romance.
Graeme and Avery have an immediate and overwhelming attention to each other. Avery is an Omega wolf and a Chicago police detective. He doesn’t act like an Omega and Graeme must change his expectations on what a mating looks like.

I love humor in a romance and this one hit all the right notes for me. More, their attraction and love for each other is explosively sweet and hot. I definitely want to read more of this series. An omega that was brought up to act like an alpha is a twist that made this fun and confident.

Great story!

I enjoyed the heck out of this book. Liked both the MCs a lot, especially Graeme, They we’re both unsettled by their differences, especially Graeme getting used to an Omega who had been raised equally with Alpha siblings. I chuckled and laughed out loud at some of their puzzled interactions. Rine’s mother was awesome, lovable, and fun to listen to. Greg Boudreaux did a fine job with narration. His men were great, and his women were distinguishable without the shrill whining many male narrators offer.

Great Read

As always this book has great character and plot development. I have nearly every book written by this author and have listened to each one at least three times. She never disappoints.

Great read

I loved this story. I listened to it within a days time!!! The world that the author created was mesmerizing.

Loved it

I would love a book about Linden and Wayde they just seem so darn cute together. It’d be great. Also there has got to be something going on there. This book was amazing and so cute and exciting. Great job, I loved it so much and I’m keeping it forever :)

Wrong for the picture

Loved this story, such a comfortable listen yet it had thrilling aspects. Just one thing I have to say, Avery is described as physically undesirable as a omega. If that is true that shouldn't have chosen such a gorgeous model for the cover.

Great book.

I loved this book. My favorite part was when Avery realized that Graham was his fated mate. Greg Boudreaux is one of my favorite narrators and did a great job with this story.

so good

I really like this book it is a book that tells a lot about shifters in certain ways but it is so wonderful The Love Story between a man and another man first glance first smell first everything that they had to share together that I think is beautiful but most of all I think that is awesome that they never gave up on each other I can't wait for the next book
