Spring Reading 2024 Alpha Wolf Need not Apply (Silver Town Wolf, 6)


Terry Spear has a way of telling stories that keep readers engaged and rooting for the characters. This installment in the Silver Town Wolf series follows Eric Silver, a descendant of the town's founding pack. While his cousin is pack leader in Silver Town, Eric serves as park ranger nearby. He has stumbled across evidence of someone growing illegal marijuana on park lands - and he can tell from the scents at each location that wolf shifters are involved. Pack leader Darien and the rest of Silver Town know that wolves involved in criminal activity is bad news, so they all want to find those responsible and shut the operation down.

As Eric searches for those who are growing the marijuana, he encounters a shifter pack he and the Silver Town wolves were not aware of. They are led by Pepper Greystock and live several hours away across the park from Silver Town. Pepper is pack leader and has had to defend her pack and herself from male alpha wolves eager to claim her as mate and take over her pack. So meeting Eric, even if he is one of the good guys taking care of nature in the park and hunting down criminals, still makes her nervous and she lets him know that she and her pack are not up for grabs.

The story follows the growing attraction between Eric and Pepper, the backstory of their earlier romantic lives before they met each other, the trouble with the marijuana growers, and conflict with a new pack that has come into the area and is pressuring Pepper to combine packs. Between wolf fights in the park, teenagers spying on Pepper at their packleader's behest, arson, and actually attending to their day jobs - will these two ever work out their reservations and take the leap?

Fans of Silver Town and Terry Spear will be pleased with this addition to the series. Those new to Silver Town will have the chance to meet some of the characters featured in other books, including Eric's cousins and brothers. A satisfying read for paranormal romance enthusiasts.
