Alpha Hero

Wolf Protectors #2

by Terry Bolryder

Jordan Vale can’t believe he’s been assigned a PR coach. As a mixed martial artist who also happens to be a wolf shifter, Jordan wants nothing more than to train alone and defend his record. The last thing he needs is a forced break and some suit following him around insisting he mind his manners. But when he meets curvy Senna Christy, the wolf in him takes immediate notice. And not just because she’s smokin’ hot. Senna is hiding a secret, and without Jordan’s help, she might be in real danger.

Senna Christy has seen a lot of difficult clients, but she expects Jordan Vale to be the worst yet. With his tall physique and cold, intimidating gaze, Jordan is as well known for being undefeated as he is for being surly and unpleasant to work with. But the Jordan Senna meets is different than she expected. And even though Senna knows she can’t afford to get involved long-term with a fighter, she can’t seem to fight the intense attraction she feels when he’s near.

But as secrets unfold and one forbidden kiss turns into so much more, Jordan and Senna can’t help falling into a hot affair that neither wants to admit might be more than a fling that ends when their work is over. But with mysterious forces threatening Senna, if the two aren’t willing to play for keeps, they might lose each other forever.

[April · Rating 3 out of 5]

I liked this book, but didn't connect to the characters as well as I usually do. The female lead character fell a little flat with me. I felt like there was something missing, I just haven't figured what it is yet. I have enjoyed the books from this author and will read others. Maybe I'll figure out what was missing and edit my review,then.

**SPOILER ALERT**

This entry in the series was not as well thought out as the other two, and lost a star.
1) To get better in PR relations, the heroine should have explained things to the hero, but never did. Instead, his image is apparently all fixed in two weeks?
2) The heroine lost her parents when she was young, yes, but it is never explained why her lack of wolf knowledge would effect her scent. And why after so many years of working with shifters the whole time, is Jordan the only one to smell her?
3) Lastly, why the hell would the bad guy leave her a stalker's note? Why make his intent known and lose his advantage?

I really enjoyed this addition to the series. It was fast paced, sexy, had some drama, and some action. I liked both the lead characters and see them change for the better because of one another. I liked the little twist that was thrown in as well (I won't say what to avoid spoilers)!

Sweet

This is such a sweet book. It is a fast and fun read. It is the perfect book to curl up with in front of a fire with chocolate! Jordan's character is just so sweet underneath is bad boy MMA persona. Highly recommend.

Middle children

Ah, the trials of the middle child. Jordan had all of the classic middle child hang ups multiplied because of the shifter thing and he, allegedly, isn't an alpha. Could be why this book *yawn* lacked fresh story ideas. Still an okay bedtime story. Happy dreams.

Alpha Hero...

Wolf Protectors book 2. A short but good read. This book was hella angsty and highly dramatic. This is Jordan story. I read this a while back. It still is worth reading.

Love is the Key, it Conquers All

I love this author, she makes me very happy. At one point I wasn’t sure which way the story would go, then, surprise, it went the way I was hoping it would. Yaaay! Thank you for making me happy.

Quick read

The story moved fast and was entertaining. Not a stellar production but good for an hour by the pool or curled up in a drive.

She fainted on the spot.

Shit. Not the response he was going for. HOLEY HOTNESS BATMAN!! WOW! I don't even know where to start! This is by far and away THE BEST EVER book by Terry that I have read so far! I have read a few of Terry's books and I have loved every. single. one. But this one? The Alpha Hero? It is the most intense, the hottest, the most FURRIFIC book of Terry's so far FANGS DOWN!! I can't even explain to you why because I can't even explain it to ME! It just has this raw, emotional, powerful vibe to it that held me imprisoned in its paws right from the very start! (Jordan could keep me imprisoned in his paws any time! *naughty grin & wink* OW! Senna! I was kidding! Well sorta! OWWW! You know it will never happen and a girl can dream can she not!?) I mean what’s not to love?? This book has it all – humor - Social lubricant, snicker -, Shifters, HOT HOT HOT bedroom action (although it is not limited to 'just' the bedroom!) suspense, mystery, and that is just a taste of all of the yumminess that is Alpha Hero! There are so many bits, pieces & parts I want to tell you about to help explain just why I love Love LOVE this book but a) there are too many to share and b) I don't want to ruin it either! I fell for Jordan right away, who wouldn't?!? He is all sexy, muscled, mysterious, tough guy persona and ALLLLLL ALPHA!! He definitely makes me howl! *naughty grin* (OW! Geez Senna! CHILL! Sheesh! Possessive much?) WHEW! Jordan has me all worn out! Lucky Senna! I love the Shifter parts in this one! I love it when the 'animals' are given personalities, a voice and the chance to show it! In my opinion, this is Terry's best book so far! Of course, like I said, I have read only about 6 of her books already, but they are all her latest & greatest ones. All I can add is that I cannot wait for more from Terry, particularly in this series! I am not a fan of MMA, but these are just such terrific books! Luckily I have her previous books to read while I am waiting!

I am always excited when a new Terry Bolryder book comes out. Alpha Hero is no exception. As I read about Jordan, MMA champion, at first I wanted to smack him and his cocky, attitude. It didn't take long for me to want him, really want him. As I got to know him better, the urge to hit him was less frequent than other urges. This hot alpha, has been a loner and didn't need some hot, curvy, smart woman following him around to get him more crowd pleasing. Of course the idea of having her around wasn't all bad.

Senna was good at what she did, and PR was her business. She changed their public appeal and had little problem keeping her clients under control--until she met Jordon. He introduced her to new feelings and introduced her to a totally unknown part of herself. However, an old threat came back. Could she do her job and stay safe?

I loved the relationship ups and downs even though I felt Senna's frustration. Jordon had his own battle and it wasn't in the ring. He battled his wolf, his and what he knew but couldn't admit--until something makes him face his feelings. But is it too late? For Senna? For them both.

The steam is visible, and the feelings those you share with them. An all out recommend. I am anxious for the Asher story. The younger brother is next. Maybe we'll find out more about their history. One thing I know. I can't wait to read it.

I was provided an ARC for an honest review.

Another great book by Terry Bolryder!! Jordan Vale is a wolf shifter and a pro MMA fighter. He has a bad boy reputation which earns him a forced temporary hiatus from fighting and requires him to work with a PR manager or get kicked off the team. Senna Charity is his assigned PR manager and is a rare female wolf shifter, but doesn't know that's what she is. Senna' one hard fast rule, don't ever date a client, goes up in some hot sexy flames, as Jordan and Senna's chemistry sparks off the charts. Senna doesn't want to be involved in a temporary fling but can't resist Jordan and Jordan can't see how a long term relationship will work with his MMA career but can't bear to think of Senna with anyone else. Senna has some danger that emerges in the form of a stalker ex-boyfriend and Jordan has to choose between Senna and his MMA career. This story was great and I can't wait for the next one, my only complaint, if you want to call it that, is the stalker situation was never clearly addressed. Was she being stalked by her ex or was it just assumed it was her ex? If it was her ex, what happened with him, he sort of just disappeared. It didn't take away anything from the story but was just a random question left hanging. I'm excited to read Asher's story and can't wait for it to come out.

[Monica · Rating 2 out of 5]

There were a few things wrong with this one. Where was her stalker we never get closure on him. Also, I sorta had a lot of doubts considering Jordan's feelings toward Senna. Also the fact she so quickly accepts shes a wolf shifter? He shifts right there in front of her and you'd think she'd at least scream or cower or something? Oh yeah your a wolf shifter...shes like oh ok. Um wha? Just his treatment of her just baffles me. He wasn't mean or anything just his cavalier attitude after he sleeps with her. He's so dense to not be able to tell shes just a BIT upset at his reaction? Uses her pretty much to slake his lust and thats it. He really thought she'd just go along with things and just end it when their "time" came to an end? How disrespectful can you get considering she just found out she's a shifter. He was THAT ready to wash his hands of her? Not that SHE was putting up much of a fight. I found her character to be fairly weak. Yeah he admits his feelings later but I just didnt buy it. They had all this sexual chemistry which is great but we need a little more than that. I find this series to be just a little rushed and not thought out as well as her other work. Hopefully the next will be better.

There is so much more to the bad boy

Taking a job on the standoffish undefeated bad boy of the MMA world was what Senna was brought in to do. As a Personal relations manager, she has worked with lots of fighter but none that draw her in without even trying like Jordan Vale! She has a rule about never getting involved with her clients but Jordan makes that rule want to jump out the ring the closer he lets her in the more she wants him for herself but trying to figure out if it is one way is more than what she is trying to figure out he is too!

Jordan knows there is more than meets the eye to sassy, intelligent, and steadily curvy Senna but he wasn't prepared for just what or the reaction it would bring out in some people. This was a great read and threw in some twist you never see coming.I highly recommend this book!

[**Elle**Bee**Double U** · Rating 4 out of 5]

Jordan Vale is the middle brother. He keeps to himself and wins his fights. But now he's being assigned a PR coach to help improve his public image with his fans. He sees no reason for a PR coach and makes to effort to hide his displeasure. But then curvy Senna Christy walks in and he can't help but wait to see what she has in store with him.

Senna has made a name for herself as the best PR among MMA fighters. But Jordan may prove to be a challenge all it's own. He's surly and unpleasant on the outside, but after spending time with his she gets to know a side that nobody ever sees.

But there are secrets on both their parts that have to be revealed. When their time comes to an end they must also decide if what they have is a fling or or will they try to make something forever out of this.

[Tammy Sargeant · Rating 2 out of 5]

Another meh read for me. I think I like her Bear shifter series better. There wasn't much character development and the stalker plot made NO sense whatsoever. Plus the conclusion was so anti-climatic, like it was just put there to carry along the story. Loved Jordan as usual because I know my bad boy had a heart of gold. Senna, well we didn't get much of her, just that she's a wolf shifter, no sort of back story, nothing. Just another insta-love thing. Now to finish this off with Asher. I kinda liked Laurel. Hope that one is better.

[Addison · Rating 3 out of 5]

This installment introduces Jordan Vale, a brooding MMA fighter and wolf shifter, paired with Senna Christy, a strong-willed woman with secrets of her own. Their chemistry crackles with heat and tension, while the external threats add suspense and stakes beyond romance. The mix of athletic grit, paranormal elements, and emotional depth elevates the story beyond typical shifter fare. Senna and Jordan’s journey feels both raw and heartfelt, making this one of the standout novellas in Bolryder’s work.

One Hot Alpha

Jordon is so hot. You just can't get enough of him. Senna is the kind of woman that can take care of herself. What they find together is amazing. While alone they can handle themselves together they are great. I'm still waiting for Asher's story I hope it's worth the wait.

[Tanya Brown · Rating 5 out of 5]

Book 2 ALPHA HERO is about Jordan & Senna. Jordan is an MMA fighter getting a reputation for fast nights and short interviews. Needing better publicity, his manager hires Senna for PR. These two get hot & heavy as she helps Jordan gain a better public image but someone is after Senna and Jordan knows a secret he must tell her afraid of how she'll react.

I hope I get to read Asher's story soon. This was really very good, i think just as good as book one. I never thought he would find his mate before Asher as he was always the distant brother.

Good Read from a great Author

As always with her books it was very well thought out. She is so imaginative with her plots and follow through. I always feel like her in characters have some depth to their personalities.

MMA Alpha love

In some ways I liked this one better than the 1st one, and they're very different from each other. I loved reading about Jordan and Senna and how he told her what she is. I liked seeing his softer side. Good book!

[Maria · Rating 4 out of 5]

Loved Jordan

Jenna and Jordan Vale's story was great! I was happy with this story because there was shifting. The only thing I can criticize is that it left the stalker situation unresolved.
