Bellefleur Black Ops Wolves #1

Betrayed by the Alpha

Rate this book
A cold-hearted beast rejected me. Now I have to pretend to be his mate.
His rejection was a betrayal of my feelings. I left, never to return. But now I’m forced back to our small town, because my dear daddy has a order to claim my inheritance, I have to mate with the Alpha who once broke my heart… It’s degrading to be back here, in the town where people mocked and humiliated me.I t’s even more degrading to have to crawl back to the Alpha and pretend to be his mate. He may be the mighty leader of the black ops. But I know what’s underneath his a rude and arrogant wolf. He’s the type of man that can destroy a woman, the man who destroyed me. Yet I’m ashamed to admit that in my darkest dreams, I don’t want him to pretend. I want to beg for him to touch me for real and do unspoken things to me. I want him to take my innocence and impregnate me. Is all of this still fake? Or will the big bad Alpha claim me for real this time? The Bellefleur Black Ops Wolves are ruthless beasts who will stop at nothing to destroy their enemies. But when they finally meet their mates, they show their true to protect the woman they love, or die trying.

This book was pretty well written, so I kept reading for a little bit longer than I normally would until I was 100% sure that this is the situation where the h would never have one iota of control over her own destiny, and one where the H played a combination of mind games whilst at the same time refusing to tell her anything about why he rejected her. I don’t care how cool the heroine is if she never wins a battle of wills or gets any real concessions.

Stupendously disappointing.

Nope. The blurb sounded promising, but didn't deliver. I thought it'd have more serious undertones, but it didn't. It was immature. Sorry

Oof. I’m glad I didn’t read book 1 of this series first, because I definitely wouldn’t have read any more. Having read the other 3, I expected this one might be a little weak since it’s the first, but this was just really bad. I’m glad to know they get better from here!

Started to read this then realized this is too much like Ruby Knoxx's AI written books to be a coincidence. No Thanks!

Bad conversations, introductions and just pure nonsense in the very first 2 chapters.

2,5 ⭐ and I'm very generous about it. It was like reading a draft for a book. Some things made no sense. It was fast paced and it was missing big portions of the story. Either it is a draft or someone said "you know what? Its way too big. Imma chop some pages cause why not?" Again, no chemistry between the characters and why does the FMC suddenly not hate him? No reason! It just happens. Like sex in this book. Poof! Sex! I don't know what's up with that but it had potential.

the writing could improve

I really want to like this book, but the writing could be better. It reads like a Wattpad story. An editor might help improve it.

Betrayed By The Alpha
By Blue Thorne

The blurb says it all, so I won't recap. Plus, it's on the short side. So it didn't take too long to read.

Zach is sweet, protective, a little naive for being an alpha wolf, and repentant for his earlier rejection of his mate. He doesn't really grovel, but considering we didn't experience the actual rejection and see the brutality of it for ourselves, I wasn't too upset about that. (And I'm BIG on demanding grovel.)

Hayley is beautiful, sweet, honest, and has mostly healed from Zach's rejection. I was glad to see there was no bitterness or stubbornness on her part.

The reason I gave it 3 stars instead of 4 is that it seems more like the story is a surface story instead of a story that delves deep into your emotions. The storyline was a bit predictable too. Besides those reasons it was an enjoyable book.

Great read

This is the first book by this author that I have read ..I will read more .. It was sweet , but I like my romance with heat and this had none . the main reason I have this 3 stars was the Alpha who in most books are supposed to be smart and impartial would let someone talk crap in his ear and believe lies and innuendo and reject his fated mate and have the bond severed .
When his ex fated mate now comes back he has a change of heart and she needs his help . so she makes a deal with him ..
She forgives him way way to easily

Alphas, yuck…

As usual, the alpha rejected his mate for a dumb reason. The gossip and bullying she received is what ran her out of town. Two years later, she’s returned for her inheritance.

The alpha is now the pack leader and head of the Black Ops. Clearly, he’s a werewolf. She is a witch! Her father, who was a very powerful wizard, was found dead in his office, so this is why she has returned home.

The lawyer and the new mayor are men to keep an eye on…

KU read, and good. Nothing really wrong with it, but it isn’t spectacular.

Solid 2.5 rating

This was a solid 2.5 dtar rating for me.

It was an alright PNR. The villain was pretty easy to determine from the get-go. The novel needed more depth and character building. The main characters made sense, but their interactions and dialog needed more. The whole book just needed more.

Overall, the whole novel just needed more world and character building to become a great novel. I did enjoy reading this, even if it was a quick read.

Not bad

This is the first book I've read by this author and it was because of the cover that got my attention. I'm glad I one clicked it because I really liked the storyline and it's characters.
I loved shifter and fated mates stories and this one was good in regards to the shifters mate was a witch .
The spice factor could have been more in my opinion , but all in all not a bad story .

Hayley returns!

Zach was in dismay after his father's death and blamed Hayley and her father for his father's death. Hayley left after her father's death and Zach's rejection, returning only to settle the estate. A clause requires her to reunite with her mate. Troubles multiply as a result.

Zach is pack alpha and head of black ops. He is also Hayley’s mate who rejected her. She comes back to town after two years. This story tells how the work together after disliking each. There is danger, romance and a happy ending.

Betrayed By the Alpha: Rejected Mate Pretend Romance (Bellefluer Black Ops Wolves Book 1)

Love a good Alpha shifter romance, some steamy scenes in the book towards the halfway mark.
Good storyline 3 stars.

Loved it!

This was a beautiful story. I was hooked from the very beginning. The emotional roller-coaster the characters experienced was spot on. The twist in the plot gave it an edge. The ending was absolutely beautiful.

Wonderfully written...

I loved the store but wish it had a little more action, I would recommend this book to witch and werewolf lovers. I chose this rating because i feel like it deserves more action. Thank you for the read.

Betrayed by the Alpha

I felt like the plot and characters were good but the writing I was unimpressed with. To be in one place in a paragraph and then the next the characters are some where else didn't make sense. A lot of the story felt unfinished.

I mean I liked it

It was good but I wanted more details that's why I didn't get too attached to FL and ML.

I choose this book cause I like when ML needs to beg for forgiveness but I like strong FL's who makes ML really work for it and in this case I think she was strong ngl

Fun Read

I enjoyed reading this book. There was a little suspense going on that enhanced the story. The love story was nice. I found myself pulling for them to get together.
