He’s cool, calm, and collected. She’s looking for excitement and adventure. Do opposites really attract?

Inigo knows there’s going to be trouble. It’s in the air. It’s seeping out into the pack and through the Protector Council. He’d rather not fight but he’ll do what he needs to do. His wolf will shut any aggression down.

Addisyn needs to get out of the house. The pressure there is unbearable. Stopping to pick up necessities at her local 24 hour market she witnesses a brutal fight. It’s messy and aggressive and… hot as hell. The whole situation is laced with danger and it draws her in. The man left standing is the one she’d just met in the refrigerated section. That made him all the more enticing.

Despite what they both know about each other and themselves - that this can never be - the pull between them is magnetic. Addisyn needs his power and danger. Inigo is intrigued by this human woman and her scent drives him crazy.

Alpha Wolf is one of those books where you’re reading like, “Okay, this is fine,” and then suddenly you’re in the refrigerated section watching a man beat the absolute snot out of someone and you’re like… babe… why is this hot?

Inigo is that guy who looks calm until you realise he’s only calm because he’s one bad vibe away from unleashing his wolf and ending someone’s evening. He’s got that “I don’t want to fight but I absolutely will” energy — you know, the kind of man who sighs before he snaps a neck. And honestly? Fair.

Addisyn, meanwhile, is doing the classic “I need to get out of the house before I scream into a pillow” routine. She goes to the 24‑hour market for snacks and sanity, and instead she gets FRONT‑ROW SEATS to a brutal shifter fight. And babe… she likes it. She’s standing there clutching her groceries like, “Oh no… oh yes… oh absolutely yes.”

And the kicker?
The man left standing — the one radiating danger and sweat and wolf energy — is the same guy she awkwardly met in the fridge aisle five minutes earlier. I swear, this woman’s life is a paranormal rom‑com written by someone who hates her.

The pull between them is ridiculous.
Addisyn wants excitement, danger, something that makes her feel alive.
Inigo wants… well, he wants to pretend he doesn’t want her, which lasts approximately twelve seconds before her scent hits him and he’s like, “Oh cool, I guess I’m feral now.”

And babe, the whole “this can never be” thing?
Yeah, they say that.
They say it a LOT.
They say it with the conviction of two people who are already mentally picking out baby names.

The tension is messy, the danger is spicy, the vibes are chaotic, and the plot is basically:

girl sees wolf fight

girl gets horny

wolf gets confused

destiny says “lol okay”

everyone suffers beautifully

It’s not deep. It’s not complicated. It’s not trying to win awards.
It’s shifter nonsense, and honestly? Sometimes that’s exactly what you want.

A 3.5–4 star read — fun, feral, dramatic, and absolutely the kind of book you inhale at 2am while muttering, “Addisyn, babe, please stop making terrible decisions… actually no, keep going, I’m entertained.”

ONE SCRUMPTIOUS WHIRLWIND!!!
Flaming delight! Sammie wound this baby up, tightened the grip and kicking it to the curb, lighting it up and watching it burn, blasting this little fella into the eye of the storm, blowing it into a tailspin with an astonishing culmination. One tumultuous whirlwind with a bevy of unforseen events and vexing circumstances, thrusts those swirling emotions into play front and center. Exhibiting incredible, well rounded scenario's, ramping up the exuberance and adrenaline with such intensity and precision, blasting this gem to life spectacularly. Add drama, intrigue and soaring suspense, along with thrilling situations and a boatload of trouble, you have one mind-blowing adventure. Bumbling through the trials and tribulations, witnessing the struggles and hardships our characters endure, along with a slew of shocking twists and unexpected turns, tempting our characters in ways they could have never anticipated. The attraction and chemistry sizzles from the pages, alluring and mesmerizing, binding them together perfectly. The characters are authentic and genuine with depth and qualities that blend into amazing personalities. The scenes are so vividly detailed it gives the illusion you were right there in the middle of ground zero with them. Fantastic job Sammie, thanks for sharing this bad boy with us.

I found this to be a very interesting read. It had several twists and turns, but it never failed to keep my attention. I literally couldn't put the book down. The challenges that the protectors had to face was just one of the things that kept me wanting to read read read. I just had to find out what happened and what the outcome of the next challenge was going to be. I think that this is a must read and HIGH recommend this very interesting and intriguing book.

Alpha Wolf

I think their counsel members are manic, especially Nia. I thought Inigo would end up fighting her at some point, how crazy she was. It was just funny to see that what was making Cronin crazy was a woman. Not just any woman, the friend of the woman Inigo was in love with.

too short cut

I’ve read some shifter stories which I loved completely. This one left me missing something. It cut from one part to the next. Does mean I won’t read the other ones but use them as fillers.

Slow build up

I love the book but hated the ending. This book gave an intro into many characters. The major hiccup this book has is its ending. I really wanted to know how the main characters worked out their issues in this book.

This is the first book of the Full Moon Protectors series, and it looks to be a good start, with both new and old scenarios for your reading pleasure.

This was a bit of a letdown. The story needed more content, it began and ended without really grabbing interest.

Too short

I would have liked the story to be longer. I feel like the story was rushed at the end. Could have gone deeper into the main characters.

Decent book

The storyline and plot are decent. The two main characters are a shifter and a human woman.
It is worth reading
