Wicked Alpha
[Siren Everlasting Classic Erotic Alternative Paranormal Romance, M/M, shape-shifters, light consensual BDSM, sex toys, HEA] The right kind of pain…Terribly insecure Anthony Reed believes he’s undesirable, so when the hottest guy in school hits on him, he figures it must be a joke. How could anyone want a guy with a head like a jar, the big, brown eyes of Bambi, and the body of Rambo? Who would want a freak who’s turned on by pain? Determined to show Anthony just how hot he is, Kevin Henderson goes after the gentle giant with everything he's got, and his assets are considerable. Kevin knows just how to press the sweet, sexy linebacker's buttons, and soon the two are inseparable. When things get too intense, and Kevin’s own insecurities and secrets are exposed, Kevin realizes they have more in common than just a need for kinky sex. Anthony thinks of himself as worthless, but Kevin needs to show him that he’s worth everything. The trick is loving himself completely first. Breaking down the walls around each other’s hearts draws them deeper into an indestructible bond. But will they be able to let the past go and join their brethren in the Twin Pines Grizzlies, or will they retreat into solitary safety? Wicked Alpha [Twin Pines Grizzlies 5] was previously published as Linebacker [Gridiron Gods 5]. Due to popular demand, the series has been revised to emphasize the bear shifting. The changes are minor in the first 7 books. If you have already read Gridiron Gods 1 to 7, you do not need to read Twin Pines Grizzlies 1 to 7 in order to continue with Strong Alpha [Twin Pines Grizzlies 8]. ** A Siren Erotic Romance

Sexy football players seducing one another, what more could a reader ask for?
Anthony and Kevin really seem to complement each other well. This isn't only because Anthony's a natural submissive, while Kevin lives for dominating his partners. It's because they bring out the best in one another, and make each want to be a better man. Even when they don't recognize that they need mending they seem to help one another, and that's what a truly special relationship is all about. It's also what let me know that no matter what, these two will be together for a long happy lifetime.
While there is a slight paranormal element to this story, it really doesn't play a prominent role in the development of the storyline or characters. Personally, I would have liked for it to have had a larger impact on the storyline. All it really did was leave me confused on why it mattered at all. I wonder if it'll be explained in later stories.
While this story is the fifth of the series, it read fine as a stand alone. I had not even realized there were previous stories written until the paranormal element was introduced. I appreciated how easy it was to jump right in and not feel left out of the characters' lives, especially because I quickly become fascinated with them and wanted more and more. Though this is the first story I've read by this author and this series, I suspect Anitra Lynn McLeod is a author name I'll be looking for when deciding what to read next.

2012 Review:
All of these books play with the D/s side of things, but this one’s the first to actually really go into BDSM territory and mild sadism.
And while this certainly started off intense, I was getting mixed messages as to what Kevin actually was expecting. I am sure he was confused about this himself but the writing does not actually convey any awareness of his flip-flopping so it just felt odd. He also came across as a self-centred, cold jerk.
In the end they both became really sweet, of course. Although I still am not certain how to feel about .
Either way, I had my generous dose of happy again and luckily nothing too upsetting this round. It’s good to get a breather. Plus in the previous volume they seemed to finish off almost all threats up to that point. Really, it feels like this series is actually moving forward, and has from the start, instead of stagnating in a concept and just having the daily couple to focus on. I like this.

This was OK for me. I feel like the stories are getting repetitive. Hoping for some variety or advancement of the overall plot with future books in the series.

I really liked this one. Kevin and Tony were perfect for each other. I also loved how Tony accepted Kevin's "need" and took away his shame for having it in the first place.
