Blurb

Gareth’s heart is set on Cam, but Cam’s heart broke a long time ago.

As alpha of the Regent’s Park Pack, Cam’s focus is always centred on its members—his personal life pushed aside after the death of his wife. Now that his pack has merged with the Primrose Hill shifters, he can't afford any distractions.


Gareth’s been in love with his alpha for years, but his position as beta complicates matters. Added to the fact Cam still mourns his late wife, Gareth knows his feelings will never be reciprocated, so he buries them deep.


With the two packs already struggling to unite under one alpha, they get a surprise addition—one who causes more tension within the ranks. Under such strain, long-kept secrets are forced into the open. Gareth and Cam must deal with the aftermath, while also keeping the pack’s best interests at heart.





5 Stars!!!

This is book 4 in the Regent's Park Pack and it needs to be read in order, as it follows an ongoing storyline.

Gareth has been in love with Cam, his alpha, for years, and has managed to repress his feelings. However, the newest addition to their pack, brings them forth in full force, making him reveal them to Cam.

Cam had closed himself off to the idea of loving anyone again after his wife died, but when confronted with the reality of Gareth's feelings for him and the potential bond they share, he needs to examine if he'd be able to open his heart again to love.

I loved Gareth, I felt for him, cried for him and all the turmoil his feelings for Cam elicited in him. I just wanted to cuddle him and make it better (and scream at Cam to just bloody get over it and give into what they both wanted!)

I will admit that I wasn't too sure about this pairing at first, the story starts a bit slow as Cam and his pack deal with the joining of the Primrose Hill pack with theirs and Newell and Wes's interference from behind bars. However, once Gareth started showing signs of distress, I became completely invested in the story, wanting him to find his HEA. Once Cam finally opened himself up to the possibility of them together, it wasn't all smooth sailing, but the chemistry between him and Gareth was undeniable and even them just kissing threatened to set my kindle on fire!

I really liked Rachel and how much she helped move things in the right direction, same as Alec and Tim. As always, it was interesting seeing how the packs work and the politics that go along with it all. 


Overall, I loved this book, even if there were times I was so frustrated with Cam, Grrrr!!! I found it entertaining, well-written and I was thoroughly engaged and invested in Gareth and Cam finding the happiness they deserved and of course, catching up with the characters from the previous books.

Highly recommendable!
