Look, I never meant to get knocked up by the enemy's second-in-command. That wasn't exactly in the spy handbook when Callan sent me to infiltrate Ironclaw Pack.
But here I am—six months pregnant, on the run, and hiding in a mechanic's garage when Elias walks back into my life. The same brooding, devastatingly hot alpha who never wanted to claim me. The same wolf whose child is now doing backflips in my belly.
The look on his face when he sees me? Priceless. The fury in his eyes when he learns I was sent to betray his pack? Terrifying.
And now I'm stuck with him in wolf territory where half the pack wants me dead, my former alpha has put a bounty on my head, and the father of my child can't decide if he wants to protect me or strangle me.
Oh, and did I mention Elias still looks at me like he wants to devour me? Because that's really not helping matters.
So yeah, my life's a mess. But one thing's for sure—this baby is coming, and I'll do whatever it takes to keep them safe. Even if it means trusting the alpha who broke my heart once already.
Let's just hope I don't end up dead before I can push this kid out.
The Traitor's Baby is a steamy slow burn, second chance, M/M shifter romance featuring an omega spy who fell for the wrong wolf, a protective alpha second-in-command battling between duty and desire, enemies-to-lovers, surprise pregnancy, forced proximity, hurt/comfort, and a love that defies pack boundaries. This third installment in the Ironclaw Wolves series delivers pack politics, primal claiming, and a hard-won HEA guaranteed!
Elias and Jace's story was, I think, the most interesting so far. I liked how the story starts months after the second book and with an established relationship or breakup. I feel that since these books are so short, having Jace and Elias already in a relationship, or in this case, a post-breakup, was more convenient. Jace is super smart. I liked how we didn't have misunderstandings, and he was more straightforward with his thoughts and reasoning. He wasn't completely good, at least at the beginning when he was feeding information to Callan, but then he chose and didn't put Elias in a place where he had to choose Jace or his pack. I also liked Jace's connection with his baby. Overall, it was more fun than previous books as we start seeing how bad Callan's pack is, which moves the plot.
The premise is good execution not so much. So much repetition of plot points and dialogue. First he didn’t know he was pregnant when he left then it became the reason he left. Every time the alpha touched his belly was written as if it was the first time and always followed with strong, like his father. Why does the alpha sound like a robot. Could it be because a computer wrote this not an actual person?
