Adrenaline Rush: An Mpreg Romance

Never Too Late, Book 2

By: Aiden Bates

Narrated by: Barney Parkwynne

Pete is six months pregnant when he finds himself in the middle of a bank robbery gone bad. He’s sure he’s going to die, but a handsome alpha State Trooper bursts in to save him at the last possible moment. Pete is half in love with Ozzy before the week is out - but what kind of alpha wants a pregnant omega?

Ozzy Morris is a cold case detective. He’s also a member of the SWAT team. When SWAT is called out to intervene in a bank robbery turned hostage situation, Ozzy meets the omega of his dreams. He barely cares that his perfect omega is already six months pregnant, and finding out that the gun used in the robbery is tied to a twenty-year-old cold case just gives him reasons to reach out.

That twenty-year-old cold case, though, turns out to be the tip of an iceberg made up of organized crime, dirty cops, and families so twisted they can barely be called families at all. Ozzy and Pete love each other, but can that love survive a new baby, their families’ opposition, and criminals who will stop at nothing to keep their operation running?

This stand-alone gay romance book contains sexually explicit content and is not suitable for anyone under the age of 18. This book is approximately 80,000 words, has a happy ending, contains mpreg (male pregnancy), and does not end in a cliffhanger.

Another amazing story

Ozzie and Pete have so many ups and downs you can’t help but root for them till the very end. This story has it all – love, tragedy, suspense and everything in between. My one criticism, being from Massachusetts, is that the narrator pronounced over half of the towns referenced in the book incorrectly. Other than that another hit!!

A first for me, but not the last!

Pete is caught in a dangerous situation when Alpha State Trooper Ozzy comes to his rescue. Ozzy, immediately taken with Pete wants more than to just save the day in this fast paced Mpreg romance, he wants to be the Alpha to Pete’s Omega. Filled with action, adventure, intrigue, mystery, and heat, love might come fast, but it doesn’t come easy for this couple. Between various and sundry criminals, cops, robbers and family members, each with their own agenda, the odds are stacked high and it might take a miracle or three for that happy ending! Adrenaline Rush is beautifully written with smooth flowing dialogue and a interesting, clear concise plot that I had no issues following. This genre was completely new to me but Aiden Bates left me with no unanswered questions. What made this experience even more enjoyable was the narration. I absolutely loved the narration! The voices for the two male leads were so different and so suited to their personalities. The voice for Pete’s mother could not have been more perfect! Just the right amount of snooty! I loved it! I loved everything about this one! Five fantastic stars!

A book will titled

This is a wonderful story that takes you on an adventure from the very beginning.
Narrator Barney Parkwynne does a fabulous job.

Good story with a caring alpha

This has always been my favorite book of the Cold Case Squad series. Pregnant omegas finding a loving alpha are not very common in mpreg stories, and Pete is especially likable with his steel backbone and indepence, while Ozzy is endearing and lovable with his kind, mellow personality and his devotion to Pete. The book is entertaining with its moments of action, reading like a cop procedural, and the villain is credible. The narration did not go as smoothly as I would have liked. The perfomer's voice was very pleasant to hear, and the characters were recognizable, however, the actor tended to emphasize the last word of every sentence, falling into a rythm that threw me off, and it also made the physically intimate scenes between the MCs not exactly sexy to listen to. The perfomer made the investigative parts of the book sound realistic, like a cop show, but did not hit the emotional tones the love scenes needed, and it ruined the mood for the romantic setting. Overall, I enjoyed the book in parts, with the police work being exciting, but the romantic parts were a definite miss for me.

Lovely!

Okay, here we go: I have never, EVER changed my feelings about a character as thoroughly as I did with Ozzie... twice! *dies laughing*

I loved the building of this story, how the romance is constructed slowly and carefully, I love how realistic the portrait of pregnancy is. And I'm still loving the setting in a Cold Cases Unity.

But... I wanted to cause severe bodily damage to Ozzie after Marisa was born. Really, really badly! But he later won me over again, because he's such an oblivious alpha, more focused on external dangers that on what's going on with his omega...

I love that Peter is such a resourceful and strong character, I love how he thinks ahead and how he is ready to assure his daughter safety, even when he is going on through some really rough times.

So yes, I really, really enjoyed this story, and, as a last thought? I really hope that, when Nancy 's time comes (sorry if I'm misspelling his name, I haven't read it!), he will pay dearly for all his macho bulls**t :P
