HAIL TO THE KING OF WOLF RIDGE!

Renee Rose melts hearts and incinerates panties with ALPHA BULLY, a scintillating bully romance with a shapeshifter twist! I have been an admirer of this author’s work for a while but this ingenious plot…an enemies to lovers werewolf romance set in a small-town high school was utterly SCRUMPTIOUS!

PREMISE:
Cole, a big, brawny football hottie, gives new meaning to the term GROWLY alpha but he’s more than just eye candy for a bevy of drooling cheerleaders. He runs the school and everyone knows not to cross him. Except one girl. Bailey. He has an ax to grind with the bookish virginal outcast--her mother stole his drunken daddy’s job--and he’s determined to wield his alphahole power over the high school misfit and make her pay bigtime. But he never intended on falling had over heels for the beautifully broken spitfire who he set out to ruin! Before long, loathing morphs into red-hot lust and he puts the kibosh on his plans for revenge and plans on ANOTHER form of torture. Mind bending pleasure mingled with a heady dose of dominance! While Bailey is the forbidden fruit and he fights every predatory instinct inside of him to keep from marking the pretty human, there’s just something about her that arouses his every protective, primal instinct and has his clamoring to claim her as his mate. A fiery attraction and tender-hearted bond quickly blossom between them but he keeps the truth of who he REALLY is from her to keep her safe. But when Bailey winds up in unspeakable peril, and she learns his shocking secret, the ensuing scandal threatens to destroy them both. Will this King of Wolf Ridge risk it all—including alienating his pack—for true love?

MY MUSINGS:

Mmmm… this steamy shapeshifter talewas the bomb! I was immediately hooked by ALPHA BULLY from the onset. This fast paced and highly entertaining high school PNR romance was sweet and smoking hot and oh so spankilicious it had me hyperventilating! While this is the first NA romance I have read by Ms. Rose, I think she knocked it out of the park! Bailey and Cole have a captivating chemistry and their sparks sizzled from from page one! I love me a bully romance where the cocky, swaggeringly sexy high school bully sets out to break and conquer his innocent victim and Bailey was Cole’s prey in more ways than one! And while the bully aspect did not last long—Cole’s feelings for his pretty little human transformed pretty quick and he never reached full-fledged alphahole status in my opinion—I nevertheless thoroughly enjoyed this story because it had the best of what I love about Renee Rose’s books. Lots of scorching hot spanky times and shivers and feels galore! And Yum! Who can resist a forbidden love story fearing a rough around the edges alpha werewolf with a heavy hand but a mega huge heart who is pitted against a sweet, sassy heroine who quickly melts his iron defenses? The connection between these two was amazing. Both have endured their share of heartache and tragedy in their lives and I love how they help each other heal and find an inner strength and resilience neither of them knew they possessed! I also enjoyed the secondary cast—especially members of Cole’s close-knit wolf pack—and thought the juicy high school drama and small-town scandal were handled marvelously.

This was an audio listen for moi and Kai Kennicott and Wen Rose brought this entertaining shapeshifter bully romance to flesh and blood life! Kai tapped into Bailey’s vulnerability, sweetness and saucy sass beautifully—my heart truly ached for her plight—and Wen was as magnetic and devilishly charming as ever. Sighhh! This velvet-voiced narrator never fails to make my heart go pitter patter and leave me all aquiver! Every time he growled “Babygirl” to Bailey, or put her over his knee to mete out his erotic punishments, I couldn’t stop squirming in ecstasy! Bottom line? This entertaining duo once again claimed my attention, thoroughly enraptured me and left me completely smitten!

We’ll OK then..

This book was interesting to say the least.

I enjoyed the first half of the book but the ending got really weird and a little too cheesy. The smut was good but the transition from enemies to lovers wasn’t done well in my opinion and the ending felt really rushed. It was like the author just finished watching “never been kissed” and decided to she was going to copy that ending but throw a rape story in the article and we didn’t even get the romantic kiss on field! SMH, It was pretty cringe.

Long review short, if you’re only in it for the smut then this is audiobook for you. If you are looking for a decent plot, love story and some good smut, this fell short.

Good luck and happy listening

Great book beautifully read

This book won me over...And the narrators have turned me into a fan! Perfect to listen to while I worked, and kept me company while cooking too. Ready for the next book by an author who is a must buy whenever she publishes.

Good Story and Storyteller

You know how sometimes the characters and voices don’t exactly match? They definitely did here! 😉

Outstanding

Sizzling story, great characters, and awesome narrators! Looking forward to more of this authors books

Loved It

I have listened to this book probably 4 or 5x. Probably one of my favorite books that I've bought so far.

Exciting and wonderful

Truly enjoyed this book and the narrators. I would recommend this book book. A must listen to book

They are in high school

The story was stemming but it was hard to get over that they are high school kids.

It was over way too soon

This was not your average bully romance.

A lot of these types of books are very similar. But this one was not about a rich kid with a chip on his shoulder. This was about a kid whose family was not doing so well, and when his dad lost his job and the woman who took over that job moved in next door, he took out his anger on her daughter.

But he wasn’t cruel like some stories. He was a little mean spirited but nothing that was inexcusable. In fact pretty quickly he becomes infatuated with Bailey. Most of the cruelty is in his thoughts and plans. But he’s just kidding himself because he can’t seem to help himself when it comes to the girl next door.

I really loved this book and although Cole acted older than a high schooler, especially with the sex games he played with her, I didn’t even care. Because in other parts he showed his immaturity with the decisions he made. I was so sad when I realized this book was coming to an end.

Also, he’s a wolf. So that was a really cool twist to this kind of story. Loved it.

Paranormal Alpha

Great high school Story. coming of age. Colt and Bailey. He a wolf shifter, her a human. Odds are against them. I especially love the dual narratives from the sexy voices of the narrators.

Wow!

This was my first journey into audible and yes!
I’m living for this experience... it is certainly weird hearing all the words I normally read but if anything it makes the book come alive!!

I wasn’t sure I would enjoy Alpha Bully but I’m glad to report that I did indeed enjoy it and recommend it wholeheartedly!

Renee Rose is also a new to me author so of course now I want to devour everything she has ever created!

Great story

I read the book and totally enjoyed the audio book too. school romance with para twist.

Impressive

This one is impressively hot and definitely worth a listen. The bully aspect has been well written and engaging and the characters were well written. This is one I know I will listen to again as it was fantastic.

Coming of Age Shifter romance

You know that boy in high school that you can't help but love, even if he is a jerk to you? Cole is that boy. He runs the school and is making life horrible for Bailey. But she can't help the attraction. And we all know what it means when the boy is a jerk. His feelings become clear quickly. But she is off limits. Her mother took his father's job, and she is a human! What will become of these two? Will they find a way to be together? This is a fantastic distraction from everyday life. Cole is that bully we all know, but when you get to know him, it's hard not to feel for him. His life is not anything like he portrays. Bailey is a tough cookie. She is up against a wall in so many ways, but finds her strength from not only herself, but through Cole. I enjoy Renee Rose's writing style, a little rough, but a lot of heart making the story melt your heart.

Rose could not have chosen a better team for this narration. Kai Kennicott shines as Bailey. She comes through with a new adult voice and teenage emotions. Wen Ross comes in as Cole, a bully with a heart, a little rough around the edges. These two have such fantastic chemistry that pours over into their romance narrations, it's a pleasure to listen to them.

Brilliant new series

This new series by Renee Rose is incredible, as a lover of books normally not a huge fan of high school stories but Ms Rose manages to turn that ideology on its head. Her characters have so much depth to them and she draws you in as they manoeuvre their way through life challenges is refreshing. The two narrators chosen to bring this story to audio really engaged with their characters & hoping to hear more from these individuals in the future.

fantastic

was a fantastic story, can't wait to read the next one. :) :) :) :)

Brilliant

Brilliant audio book love the whole story i was totally hooked once i started listening i didnt take my headphones off i might miss something if i did . I highly recommend listening to this audio renee rose you are great so looking forward to the next one .

Wonderful

While I'm not usually a reader of new adult romance, leave it to Ms. Rose to change that. Her alpha antihero Cole is hot and dominant enough to make me forget he's in high school easily. This is great mix of bully, shifter, Dom erotica that was totally enjoyable.

A young adults love story that is intense and moving

Highly recommended, and will be devoured by fans of Renee Rose's Alpha Wolf Shifter world.
The book itself is great , and the audio narration is brilliant, it brings the whole world of Wolf Ridge High to life and makes Cole and Bailey seem real and unique.
Intwined in a faced paced and gripping plot,both Cole and Bailey, grow from hiding from the truth of deeply painful episodes in their life, to developing the inner strength and bravery needed to deal with the issues facing them and to develop a deep, loving and supportive relationship.
Cole is dragged from aggressive and vengeful behaviour by his growing attraction to Bailey, to an instinctive desire to care and protect.A deep and subtle understanding of the pains and joy of first love underpins this whole novel.
I was given a copy of this audio book freely by the author, and review it freely, by my own choice; its given me the chance of listening to a story that's become one of my favourite "listens"
