Book Review: Alpha's Burden
Fate chose the worst possible mate for me…my enemy.
Being bonded to Caden Blackburn used to be all I dreamed of. Those dreams were crushed the moment this pack branded my entire bloodline traitors for challenging his father.
Life in Silver Falls isn’t easy. As the only packmate unable to shift, I’m considered broken. No one wants a useless mate. Especially not Caden. Imperfections don’t fit within the rigid way he rules our pack as alpha.
I never thought he’d look at me with anything other than fury until our bond awakens. Instead of disgust, his gaze burns with desire, reviving feelings I buried once I’m in his powerful arms. We almost succumb to the pull to claim each other as fated mates.
But enemies don’t belong together. He reminds me by rejecting me in front of everyone.
I’ve learned to overcome whatever tries to break me, but in my shattered heart I wonder if I’ll survive the pain of Caden turning his back on me a second time.
Yet if he rejected me…why is he going feral if any other male tries to get near me?
Alpha’s Burden is the first book in the Rejecting Fates paranormal romance series featuring fated mates with a satisfying HEA in every book from USA Today bestselling author Veronica Eden writing as Luna Lark.
My Review
I felt for Avery in the beginning when she was rejected by Caden. The sting of rejection was real, and I felt it. Yet, I did not need to feel sorry for Avery very long. She is a strong woman, who is not afraid of Caden.
The ways that she stood up to Caden and even got toe to toe with him. She is very luckily that she is Caden's mate as no one else would have survived if they had done that to Caden. The connection between Caden's wolf and Avery is a powerful one.
The more that Caden resisted, the strong that his wolf fought him for Avery. When Caden had his first "taste" of Avery that was hot. There are a few more spicy scenes shared between these two. I look forward to continuing this series.
