Plan A: Lycaon's Kiss
Jensen was the perfect boyfriend - or so Morgan thought. Left as collateral for his gambling debts, Morgan finds herself held captive by a group of "Rabid" werewolves and their overly eccentric leader, Greg. As if things couldn’t get any worse, she finds herself accidentally turned into one of them!
Enter Braedon. Tall, dark, devastatingly handsome. Braedon is the Alpha of his own pack of wolves who are determined to make Morgan one of their own. After saving her from the Rabids he takes it upon himself to train and prepare her for his pack’s mission, Plan A.
As a new pup, will Morgan be able to hold her own alongside the Alpha pack? Will her feelings for Braedon get in the way? Better yet, what the heck is Plan A?

Morgan can't believe her boyfriend of two years left her with a weird group led by Greg for collateral because of his debt. Scared and wanting her boyfriend to come back, she doesn't get why Greg acts like there is more to the situation then there is. When an attack comes Morgan doesn't know what she saw or why she is now with Braedon, he claims he saved her from the Rabids, the group Greg led, but as she begins to learn about wolves and the history that mingles with mythology. Braedon is trying to guide Morgan into the wolf she is but it causes them to clash and feelings are getting confusing to both sides. With the Rabids still after her and a betrayal that Braedon never saw coming, who will survive and will the feelings building between Morgan and Braedon begin to make sense?
Entertaining read. I liked the concept of mythology mixing with paranormal. Was a bit angsty at times but I got why it was. I think the author did a great job of having Morgan question everything, your taking a human girl and mixing it with wolves and she has no clue what to believe, plus she was not raised within an Alpha hierarchy. Would definitely check out more from this author.

Ce roman est pile poil le genre de lecture que j’adore avoir et rien que le résumé m’avait emballée. Au final, j’ai été surprise par la tournure des choses, l’univers mis en place par l’auteure et ses personnages. Je m’attendais à une romance paranormale classique avec des loups (pas que ça me gêne), mais au contraire, les choses étaient bien plus poussées et complexe avec du suspens, de la mythologie et des amours compliqués. Et surtout, comme il est dit dans le titre et le résumé, on se pose une question continuelle : qu’est-ce qu’est ce foutu Plan A ?!!
Cette question, Morgan ne va cesser de se la poser et découvrir ses dessous de plein fouet. C’est une jeune femme à la recherche d’elle-même, qui a pourtant tout ce qu’on pourrait souhaiter avoir : une famille présente, un petit-ami parfait, un job intéressant dans l’entreprise familiale, mais tout cela n’était que des mensonges qui vont voler en éclats lorsque son copain va la laisser en tant que garantie pour rembourser ses dettes. Morgan va se retrouver entraîner dans un monde paranormal violent inattendu où les loups-garous survivent parmi les humains, tout en fuyant les Hunters et surtout la colère de Zeus. Morgan est vraiment intéressante dans sa façon de voir les choses et se battre pour ce qu’elle veut. Elle a un esprit large et tolérant, ce qui lui permet de vite s’adapter à sa nouvelle vie. Elle ne cesse d’évoluer en engrangeant tout ce qu’elle découvre, afin de devenir enfin celle qu’elle était censée être. Sa vie recèle de bien des secrets, même si certains sont assez prévisible, d’autres sont étonnants. Je l’ai vraiment beaucoup apprécié et je ne trouve vraiment rien à redire sur elle, puisqu’elle ne cesse de se remettre en question.
Bien qu’on suive l’histoire du point de vue de Morgan, les autres membres de sa nouvelle meute, ainsi que leurs ennemis et les chasseurs sont très importants et plutôt bien développés. Braedon, l’Alpha par excellence de sa race, évolue tout comme la jeune fille, d’abord froid et arrogant, pleins de mystères, il se révèle peu à peu et nous permettant de voir un jeune vraiment vraiment intéressant et touchant. Jensen est un petit con de première et il ne me revenait pas dès le début, tout le contraire du loup. Shannon est la louve qui se détache le plus, la petite sœur de l’alpha devient rapidement une excellente amie et alliée de Morgan. Et n’oublions pas Greg qui joue son rôle de méchant à la perfection, tout comme Beasley qui apparait en coup de vent et reste un mystère pendant bien longtemps.
La romance occupe bien entendu une place assez importante puisque c’est la raison pour laquelle Morgan se retrouve dans ce bordel sans nom et que Braedon ne peut pas abandonner le Plan A. Mais rapidement tous les deux vont être attirés l’un par l’autre, les choses vont commencées à chauffer et devenir sérieuses. Il y a bien entendu une question de lien d’union indestructible comme dans presque toutes les romances de métamorphes. Ce que j’ai apprécié, autre que la romance Braedon/Morgan, c’est qu’on voit les points positifs et négatifs d’une telle relation, cela change du destin nous promet un bonheur éternel.
D’ailleurs cela entre dans l’univers dépeint par l’auteure, un monde passionnant et qui a certaines notes d’originalités. Les loups sont ainsi à cause d’une malédiction donnée par Zeus et le panthéon grec a donc une grand importance dans l’histoire. Il en va de même avec les ennemis des loups, les Hunters qui eux obéissent aux ordres d’Artémis. On retrouve des similitudes avec Dark-Hunter, Alpha & Omega ou bien Bitten, mais je ne trouve pas cela gênant, ceux sont avant tout des inspirations bien utilisées. S. Briones Lim m’a convaincu avec ce livre qui était bien écrit du début à la fin, avec une belle maitrise de l’intrigue, des personnages et de tout ce qui les entoure. Je lirai avec grand plaisir un autre de ses romans et en attendant je ne peux que recommander de lire Plan A: Lycaon’s Kiss car il ne peut que plaire aux amoureux de ce genre de lecture !

PLAN A: LYCAON'S KISS by S. Briones Lim is an exciting adventure. Morgan Koudapolis' boyfriend, Jensen Callahan, gave her as collateral for his gambling debts to Greg the rabid werewolf leader. While imprisoned, she is accidentally turned. She is then rescued by Alpha, Braedon, who wants to use her for Plan A. This werewolf PNR is suitable for adult audiences.
Morgan is an interesting heroine. She is put in a horrible situation by her pathetic boyfriend, Jensen. She is turned into a werewolf and needs to learn their lifestyle, while training to be used in Plan A. She is a strong individual. She has a lot to process and handle throughout this story. She conducts herself well.
Braedon could sometimes come off as an insensitive jerk. The further we got to know Braedon’s character the more I liked him. He is conflicted. He admired and respected his father and feels he has to live up to his standards. He has good intentions. He cares about his pack. He wants to be a good Alpha.
I really liked Shannon. She becomes a good friend and pack mate to Morgan. I love that she calls Braedon out when he is being unreasonable.
This is one of those stories that just got better the more you read it. When I started reading this book in the first few chapters, I thought it was okay. However, the more I read, the more invested I became, and the more I enjoyed the book. The story had an amazing ending. The plot was interesting. There were some stimulating conflicts, especially where Beasley was concerned. Greg, New Alpha, and the Hunters are interesting opponents. I love the mythological aspect of PLAN A: LYCAON'S KISS. I thought it was clever and well executed. There were many fascinating twists and lot of excitement. The story is full of mystery, and you are never quite sure who is trustworthy. I wouldn’t mind seeing a sequel to PLAN A: LYCAON'S KISS.

Morgan never expected her perfect boyfriend to leave her with some criminal as collateral for his debts. But when she finds herself in a world and a part of a war she never expected she will have to learn fast if she wants to survive.
Enter Braedon. As Alpha he is expected to do what is best for the pack, and that includes figuring out if Morgan can be used to learn more of the threats against his wolves.
What will happen when the full moon rises? As tempers flair and passions heat up will these two end up killing each other or something else all together. One thing is for sure though just when you think you've got the story figured out a new twist comes into play.
The storyline was interesting, pulling together mythology and paranormal elements to give you a unique twist on things. The flow was great and kept me interested, but unfortunately where things went flat was with the main characters.
Morgan was a very weak character. Constantly talking about her faults instead of growing from her experiences when things went wrong she kept reverting back to the weak, insecure person she was. When things were calm she would have thoughts that showed sparks of a stronger character but then when things got tough it was like that strength was never there. She did finally get better, but it was at the very end.
Braedon seemed strong and sure of who he was and what needed to be done, but as the story unfolded he became more and more unsure of himself. I know every character can't be perfect all of the time but it seemed that by the end he was just going with the flow rather than taking responsibility because he wanted to and knew what needed to be done.
Overall it was the idea of the story that got me through the more annoying bits with the main characters, but I would have liked it more if the characters were stronger.

I admit it, I’m a 1-clicker and I may have problem. Even though admitting this is the 1st step to recovery, recovery is something that I’m simply not interested in only because if I wasn't, I would have never stumbled across gem!
This story follows Morgan, a woman who is in love with her long term boyfriend, as she steps into a world she did not know existed, nor wants to be a part of. A world that she fights to be freed from. A world that contains werewolves.
Without revealing any spoilers, this book takes you on a roller coaster. You think you know where the author is going with the story line but S. Briones Lim completely takes you out of that mind set and continuously throws curve balls at you to keep you guessing. And you know what? I appreciated that. Not once did I get bored with this book and I really did feel all of the emotions Morgan went through while trying to understand her place and those who she is associated with. May I also say, of course there is a leading male man and holy hotness. He’s an ultimate alpha!
Ultimately, this is a great book and a fantastic read! I can’t wait to see what else comes out of S. Briones Lim’s brain!

Morgan has been left as collateral while her boyfriend goes to get the money he owes for a gambling debt. But he never returns for her, thus leaving her as payment. Morgan expected him to return, after all they were in love. But she was thrown to the wolves in more ways than one. In fact, she was left with a werewolf and along the way she is turned into one herself. Braedon, the leader of the pack, becomes her keeper and they start to have feelings for each other. But Braedon also has a need beyond that. He needs her help to complete “Plan A”.
Is Morgan up to the challenge? Can she handle her feelings for the Alpha? And will the mission work out?
I want to start by saying I am a huge fan of S. Briones Lim. She is spectacular! Her Life Force Novels were absolutely amazing. As was Plan A. I couldn’t get enough and I want so much more! The author gives us some mythology lessons in Plan A regarding the Origins of werewolves and keeps ya hooked through the entire book. I would recommend this story to everyone that enjoys a good book. Paranormal, fantasy and romance….you get it all in this book.

What a pleasant surprise this book was! S. Briones Lim has written a fascinating, action-packed, romantic, paranormal thrill ride!!
Morgan was just an ordinary girl...until she wasn't. She was traded as collateral to pay for her boyfriend's debts. Really? What a jerk! While she's there, her life changes forever. She is rescued by a pack of wolves. What ensues after is a fun ride of danger, romance and betrayal.
I'm a picky reader when it comes to my paranormal reads. I don't like paranormal books with too much weird detail. Don't over-inundate me with freaky details, give me enough and then build a world or creature for me. Briones Lim does a great job of giving just the right amount of details without making it too clinical. The tension between Morgan and Braedyn was perfect. The supporting characters added just enough.
Kudos to S. Briones Lim for a fantastic paranormal romance/urban fantasy novel! I can't wait to read more of her books.

I was given an ARC of this book by the author in exchange for an honest review.
This is an impressive book with great characters. It is an intriguing and ingenious take on the werewolf story. The way the author introduced mythology into the story was both fascinating and enjoyable.
Morgan is an interesting character. I thought she was foolish to have any feelings for Jensen after he intentionally dumps her with some really bad people. Fortunately she is saved by Braedon, a pack Alpha and that's when her life changes forever. I love Braedon. He is strong but also full of insecutities. The interaction between Braedon and Morgan was very entertaining.
There is a great plot with unexpected twists. Fast, easy read. Terrific writing style and the story moves at a great pace. Awesome for adults as well as YA readers. I will be reading more books by S. Briones Lim.

If you like a bit of werewolf crossed with some Greek mythology this is def the book for you . A fantastic take on the werewolf theme that has plenty of twists & will keep you guessing. I loved all the charcaters but did find Morgan a bit wimpy , i felt she had a feisty side but was just scared to use it , same with Braedon , most un-alpha wolf ive read about in a while but as the story progresses you can see why they both hold back .Great build up & ending , im hoping there is going to be more from this wolf pack family .
i was given this book as an arc in exchange for an honest review
