Faith(Running withtheAlpha's Book #5)
**** Recieved an ARC from the Author in exchange for aHonest Review.****
**REview Previously posted on Amazon**
This is the fifth book in Viola Rivards' Newest serial Running with the Alpha's.
This is justmy opinion, but I thinkout of all of the Running w/ the Alpha's installments this has to be my favorite.It's Jam packed with Angst, Raw, Heartbreaking emotion ,War,Action & Adventure,Romance and Intrigue.
Oh and lets not forget the sizzlingly,Hott love scenes!
Now that Taylor has gone through the Mating Thrall with both Alder and Hale.She ahs become Pregnant.She knows she has made Alder the Happiest Alpha Alive, but she now knows she has the hard task of learning to deal with being a first time mom to be .While living in the wilderness,with a pack of wolves and Two male Alpha's she has feelings for ,but is not sure one of them returns said feelings and he may be the babies father.
Oh wait a minute , Taylor just realized ,she won't be having children.
They will be Puppies!!!!!!
Hale has been MIA since after the Mating Thrall.
He knows he has deep feelings for Taylor and cannot lwet her go that easily.
Quote "Giving Taylor space to come to terms with her feelings for him and how he will fit into their cozy little love triagle."He Finally realizes she is already Pregnant with what he hopes deep down inside is his pup, not Alders'.
Alder is Exstatic that he will finally have a family and Taylor will bare his child,but he has a Horrowing secret, that he should have told her before the Mating Thrall.Once that living ,Breathing Secret shows up at the Halcyon den, it may spell Danger for the whole pack or the end of this new growing family once Taylor finds out .
Viola had me a little worried in one scene.I thought she killed off a favorite charactor of mine , but he was just injured in that scene. I am looking forward to a book or serial about Fenix the hawkever since that Yummy Mid Air shifting Scene in Choices (Running with the Alpha's Book #3)
The running with the Alpha's series can be read alone ,but there are charactors that have jumped from Viola's other serials.
If you want to read them, they are,
Claimed by the alpha's (Mina ,Caim & Ashe)
Mated to the Alpha's (Mina Caim & Ashe)
**(Claimed & Mated can be bought in a 7 book Boxset on amazon now )
Bound to the Alpha (Cain & Sarah)(bound also has a 3 book boxset)
Check out the New Anthology out for a limited time.
Kiss of Christmas Magic:20 Paranormal Holiday Tales
(Includes Viola's New book LOST IN WINTER)

I was given this book to reveiw. I have read all of Ms.Rivard books, after reading one series she had written it made me read all of her books and I could hardly wait to get this, the fifth book to read it. I immediately downloaded it , because I really love reading this author. Of course I was definitely not disappointed. Alder, Taylor and Hale are characters that is easy to enjoy and make you laugh. Alder and Hale have hot ripped bodies that Taylor finds lots of pleasure with, and they both treats Taylor like hot house flower that so erotic and sweet. There is a some jealous between the brothers that only thing with a look from Taylor settles them. There is some tension still with some of the pack that time will take care of. I can't wait to see Taylor have her cubs I can see Alder holding the babies but Hale will loved them but think they are to small, but to see how their life will be with the babies and the pack. Could you imagine barbacues with the pack and two little boys running around but the whole pack looking on them? I can imagine all the laughter it would be.
I recommend this book to all who like to see how one woman handles two handsome Alphas. THERE IS ONLY ENJOYMENT TO BE HAD HERE!! READ AT YOUR OWN RISK OF LOTS OF ENJOYMENT

This review is from: Faith (Running With Alphas Book 5) (Kindle Edition)
Oh boy, this is the best one yet! In the fifth installment of the Running with the Alphas series, I was on the edge of my seat. Oh, and the twist at the end had me screaming. Don't leave me hanging like this.
Hale has really grown in this book and I found him to be quite endearing. I think he's ready to be a family man, but just doesn't quite know how he will fit in. Alder has kept quite a huge secret from Taylor and I think this pushes her even more towards Hale.
There is quite the showdown with Whiteriver and the epilogue will leave you with more questions than answers.

Would had given this a 4.5 to 5 rating if the same proofreading errors as the previous installments hadn't occurred, Otherwise, Faith was the best installment so far in the series. The action that was missing in the other installments was present in this novella. Also, new characters were introduced in the form of Alder's daughter (Snow) and nephew (Caim) who will become a future alpha. There seems to be some major drama brewing with Lark because there is someone working against the pack from within. My bet is on Holly the fox shifter as the guilty party. Looking forward to the next installment in the series.

I was gifted this book by the Author Viola Rivard for an honest review.
Taylor is alright with her pregnancy now and even Hale is starting accept that he loves her and shows signs of love towards her and the baby.
But Alder's past has come to haunt him and now war may likely be the result as his daughter has been kidnapped by the Whiteriver pack.
There is an even bigger surprise as they learn that they have a traitor among them, but what's the biggest part of the surprise is who it is!
This series only gets better!

The fifth book in the Running with The Alphas series continues the story between Taylor and her two alpha males. Taylor finds herself in love with two men. Alder who is gentle and loving and Hale who is all rough and tough. Combined the perfect male. Can this threesome work? Can Taylor live with the secret Alder kept from her?? Can Taylor reconcile her feeling for Hale?? Can't wait for the next book so we can find out more answers.
November 17, 2014
Unbelievable just can't get any better.
if you are going to read this series I recommend you read Viola's first alpha series with Cain and Sarah which will help but you don't have to it fills is some details threw out the book this was another great read. I just wish sometimes it was one whole book and not short reads. but we readers do what we do for our favorite author. thanks again Viola your the best.

This installment is filled with emotion and action. Taylor meets someone important whose existence had been kept secret from her by everyone - Alder and Hale being the guiltiest parties. Enemies prowl the woods causing mayhem and injury, and even trusted friends may be guilty of betrayal. So many more questions brought up in this part - great job Viola!
November 16, 2014
Taylor is pregnant! Can Hale, Alder, and Taylor be a United happy family? Taylor hopes so. When everything is going perfect, a surprise visitor throws their relationship into turmoil. Kidnapping and betrayal ensue. Was shocked to realize there was a tie in to the Bound series that I hadn't caught. This serial keeps leaving me wanting more and anticipating the next release!

Book 5 in the Running with Alphas series.
A good continuation of the story of Taylor and her twin Alphas Hale and Alder. Things aren't very comfortable for Taylor being the only human in the pack. The threat is still there, and not going away.
Quite a bit is packed into this short book.

For the exact same reasons I have for the first book in this series. I maintain that only the first two parts of this incomplete book series gets three stars. All chapters published periodically get less.
My previous review applies here as well.
Except:
Originally I was set out to give this title at least a 3.5 or higher due to the lack of editing issues, a well flowing story line, and at 104 pages it's almost forgivable for being an incomplete story (a practice seeming to be the trending thing lately to milk readers out of money).
The following books in this series maybe all priced at $0.99 but the page number shrinks. I don't know if this is an intentional deceptive practice but it has been discovered by this reader and at least I didn't purchase the last three books before I caught on. As it is the book count is as followed:
Book 1, 125 pages - Free
Book 2, 104 pages - $0.99
Book 3, 97 pages - $0.99
Book 4, 82 pages - $0.99
Book 5, 73 pages - $0.99
Book 6, 59 pages - $0.99
Book 7, 55 pages - $0.99
Where did the content go? Did this writer just lose steam and can't write any more. I am not sure if this series ends at 6 parts (books) but if there is a seventh, well it goes to say that it will have fewer pages with each addition book.
As for my original rating, I decline to give an unfinished story a star writer who doesn't produce an actual full book a rating above 2 stars. I take no measure of malice because this author does have the talent to write a fairly good story. Just cannot bend on these bikini parts being sold in pieces instead of a whole.

With each book I've liked the series more. All of the books in this series are quick reads and you need
to read them in order. When I read the first book I was like hmmmm, okay. Now that I'm reading book 5 the story is leaving its mark.
Even in the beginning Taylor has annoyed me, I may can say I kind of like her. I'm still all for the bad boy brother Hale. All three of them really need to learn to be a tri-couple, instead of fighting each other. If they step back and look they would see that all three of them bring something to the couple-ship.
The scenes are still hot not as often but hot never the less. I like them all together.. they like each other more when they’re all together (smiles). They will be tested again, when Alder's pre-teen daughter shows up unannounced. It was a bit low how Hale delivered the news of Alder's daughter Snow, but its Hale so yeah.
Just when Alder was relenting on Taylor's guard coverage all hell breaks lose, when Taylor and Snow follows the young wolf out in the forest. Its funny how impending danger can make one re-evaluate what you think of life.
A bit of a twist I didn't see coming... danger will come, choices be made.... who will pay the biggest price of them all. I really enjoyed this book and anxiously wait for the next. If you like shifters try it out be like mikey and likey. (smiles)

Disclosure: I received this book as an ARC.
So where we left off with Hale, Taylor and Alder was the completion of the mating thrall and the departure of Hale. Taylor our main female lead is in love with both twin wolves Hale and Alder for the qualities that they are different, despite all her efforts to avoid loving them both she couldn't resist.
That being said the segway from Safety into Faith leads us through the navigation of the post mating pregnant Taylor adjustment period. Hale takes a more lead role in this one, so as a reader we can see his love blossoming with Taylor despite the intense drama in this episode. As to keep from spoiling it for you, I will say that it's definitely shorter than safety so it turned out to be a lunchtime read for me, but packed quite a bit of drama into the short read.
I would definitely recommend this series to anyone who enjoys serials and werewolves.

Is not telling someone something a lie?
Well Taylor is pregnant and Alder or Hale is the father. Hale is MIA in the beginning of this book and Taylors mad about that Then comes a few older Pups from the brothers pack and one happens to be Alders daughter that he never told Taylor about. Let the dissention begin. At the end of this book is a real unexpected possible traitor. Lots of action and excitement in this one. Well written and very entertaining.

I'm still not totally hooked to this serial and read it because it's available via kindle unlimited. I've liked Hale since Cain and Sarah's story, so I do like following him. It was also interesting to see Caim and Snow in the story. I liked that addition and the fight between packs heating up is also intriguing. However, I'm still not sold on Taylor or her relationships, so I'm not as invested as in other series by Viola Rivard.
February 21, 2015
This series for me just keeps on getting better. Hale, Taylor and Adler are now faced with new challenges. I am still totally digging Hale, the typical bad boy though over Adler. But we'll see what happens. It is a very fast read. Really I started and couldn't put it down until I was done. It was a good continuation of the series.

Kindle Unlimited - Book 5 in series - cliffhanger and you have to read first 4 books before this one. This book makes me fall in love with Hale. He shows that he cares more than he said he does. Snow shows up and there is problems now that couldn't come at a worse time...now that a new baby is on the way.
September 13, 2015
ith is a great continuation of the story of Taylor, Alder, and Hale. It's a quick, but engaging read. Once I started reading this installment, I didn't stop until it was finished. The only bad thing is the wait until book 6 is going to difficult. Just like the other books by Viola Rivard I've read, Faith is definitely worth the buy!
March 7, 2016
Omg...in this part Taylor and Snow get to know each other, i am very glad they do that. I almost had a hart attack when stuff began to complicate...badly.
I just think that this part is too short,but with all importances..It is so good story i think i was so impatient when i read it, it took me 15 minutes ... And now we have to wait to see what hepens next...Thank Good the december is near :)

Loving Hale
Adler had forgotten to mention a few things, like a mate and a teenage daughter. Hale is developing a good personalitywhil e Alder seems to be finally showing his true colors.

Sexy but the heroine in the story is about to piss me off!! Her ass should have moved in the Den in the first book and saved a whole lot of trouble!! Ready for the last book or at least I hope it is the last one!!
November 15, 2014
I'm just mad at Taylor in this one ... I feel she is selfish and not nearly honest .... Talk with the two you love woman!!!
November 17, 2014
I've said it once and I will say it again. TOO DAMN SHORT! But I really enjoy this series never the less.
November 18, 2014
