Decked

Team A.L.P.H.A., Book 7

De: Susi Hawke, Crista Crown

Narrado por: Colin Darcy

Deck the halls with knives, chains, and dangerous children’s toys!

Team Alpha is celebrating the holidays, but a surprise blizzard has snowed them in at Bossman and Papa P’s house, along with a few friends.

Not that Papa P minds. He’ll take any excuse to keep his loved ones close and stuff them full of good food.

It’s not only snow that’s flying through the air, however. Omega counselor Dean and team beta leader Sam may have found more than a little holiday cheer while joining the team’s holiday festivities.

And Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without Bossman and Papa P recounting the joy of their anniversary and the hard times that came before.

This book is best enjoyed if you’ve already listened to the previous Team Alpha stories, as there are plenty of in-jokes, purple sparkly knives, and growing children sprinkled throughout this tale. As always, you can expect some naughty knotty fun, humor not suitable to share with your mother-in-law, and all your favorite characters.

Trigger warning: Graphic violence and mention of human trafficking. HEA definitely included. Intended for listeners 18 and above only. Seriously, would you expect anything less from Susi Hawke and Crista Crown?

Perfect ending to a great series

This was a sweet Christmas story to end the series. I liked getting to know more about Justin and Ray. There was also a new romance with Dean and Sam who are from Alphabits. It was nice to see everyone together with their families.

I had to speed up the narration quite a bit for my liking, but overall Colin Darcy did a good job.

Perfect "Ending" to Team ALPHA

The entire Team ALPHA series has been so wonderful - full of action, snarky laughter, and so much heat. Decked is the perfect ending for this series, giving us not only an "update" on the guys of the team (seeing them and their families at Christmas at Papa P & Ray's) but also giving us Papa P and Ray's story AND the beginning of a whole new series .... The Alphabits!! There's a little bit of the holiday spirit that comes through, making this a perfect listen during the holiday season. Colin Darcy did such an amazing job with all the voices for each of the guys in the team, their mates, Papa P, Ray and now Dean and Sam too. It's easy to follow along with who is speaking and is an entertaining listen. Now.... to go listen to The Alphabits!!

New additions

With the Christmas spirit in the air we get to see the team ALPHA come together to celebrate.
We finally get to know how Justin and Ray got together and how the love between them stood the test of time.
New additions are introduced and new bonds are formed.

This was a lovely tale to listen to and the narrator does it justice. Each character was clear and the voices smooth.

Great Series

I received an ARC of this audio for my honest review. This is a great ending to a fabulous series. We got to see a new couple get together and also learned how Ray saved Justin and how they started up Team Alpha all those years ago. Susi & Crista are a great writing team and Colin does a superb job at narrating all the characters in the series. Next in this group is the Series Alphabits which is also an amazing series by this duo.

Excellent end for this series....

This was the perfect ending for this series as well as the beginning for the Alphabits series! I loved getting to see all of our mated pairs and their children again and being able to get some of the story from the perspective of our Papa P and his mate. Hearing how the Team A.L.P.H.A. got its start was heartbreaking and heartwarming all at the same time but it was perfect to be included in this conclusion because it brought all of it full circle. I have already started the next series so it was good to see how Sam and Dean started again even though I had already read this one. The narration was well done.
