“Her Alpha Protector” is labeled as the first installment of the Cave Bay Shifters series. However, I wish I had read the Burning Falls Shifters series first, and this was labeled as a spin-off. I had several instances where I was verifying the number in the series because I was missing large pieces of information. On page two, our hero Max talks about how happy he is to have his life back to normal after the events at the neighboring town. I wanted to know those events and felt I missed out because I liked the action scenes that were in this book. I wanted the whole story.
Our main character, Heather, is an emissary of the Fae who is acting as the town’s new archivist. I loved her prickly nature and strong personality. I also loved her maternal skills in this paranormal-Brady-Bunch. She made choices that were not only best for her budding relationship but also for her kids. The kids were more than props which I greatly appreciated. Daisy, Lily, and Rose had distinct personalities and purposeful roles in the story. I was confused about the relationship between Heather and her sister, Lisa. Heather hates her but after one phone-call leaves her kids with Lisa overnight while she visits Max’s mentor. Since Lisa lives in Burning Falls and knows Max, I am guessing that anyone who read this after the other series would know Lisa is a good guy. I loved the magical aspects of Heather, Lisa, the Eldress, and the Fae. I wanted more magic and answers to the town’s sinking mystery.
Love Interest Max is a tough guy with a vulnerable, softy center. I loved his interactions with Heather and all six kids. I would have loved to have read the spaghetti dinner scene where it is the first meal shared by all eight characters but sadly that was cut. Max is conflicted on settling down because of his legacy of absentee-parenting due to alpha duties. I was confused as to what those duties were since most of the town is human. The only pack meeting described is a meetup at a bar between Max and his four friends with the promise of a midnight howl. I would have loved to see what was keeping him from having time for Heather. Max and Heather refer to his strong alpha side, but there were not any alpha activities performed by Max in her presence.
Overall, I liked Cynthia Wilde’s writing style and world-building. I am curious about the mystical elements beneath Cave Bay and want to see more Fae scenes. So many questions linger at the end of the book that reading the sequel becomes a necessity. I will be trying book 2 after I read the Burning Falls series so I can enjoy the intended mystery.

I voluntarily reviewed a copy of "HER ALPHA WOLF PROTECTOR" This was a very interesting, intriguing, mysterious, unique story, with magic, danger, steam, my fist read by Cynthia Wilde I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
Heather Sanchez is a single half FAE mother with three children who left her nasty ex to start over in Cave Bay gets a job as an Archivist working with Pack ALPHA of the town.
Max Strata as ALPHA of his pack & small town of Cave Bay has his hands full dealing with a sinkhole offshore with something dark & dangerous in the waters working with new Archivist Heather.
I definitely recommend to get this amazing well out together story with interesting characters following Max & Heather's journey to figure out the ancient legends of the sea the strange mysteries & dangers can they get a HE'S or will what's happening destroy the all you have to get this book to see what happens.

Unexplained dark sink holes, algae filled water, rumors of strange creatures in the water and an increased feeling of danger....Can Heather and Max save this town?

I liked Max's honesty with Heather from the start. It was refreshing and lowered the angst level. I liked how easily and quickly the six kids bonded! Warm and fuzzies! When Max left the three kids drive off, I was shocked and cried. Heather started strong, but became a disappointment with her lies of ommision. Not telling her kids they were shifters. Then, her decision to go back to Arizona like a weak coward. WTH !! And, she ran from Eloise and her questions! That's a coward not a heroine. Hopefully the next female lead is a real heroine and not a coward or liar.

Brilliant
Her Alpha Wolf Protector by Cynthia Wilde. If you haven't read Burning Falls Shifters I would recommend you do. This sets the scene for Cave Bay Shifters. Something is horribly wrong in Cave Bay. Once a thriving town now everything is falling apart. It is up to Max, the alpha and Heather, the Fae Archivist to put things right. Probably with a little help from their friends in Burning Falls.

Fantastic
Heather and Max were so funny when they met and didn't know how to respond to one another. Then Max was responsible for the 3children who had received a very short rope from even their own parents. He wasn't prepared but he was a good man and he fell in love with those kids and Heather and her kids too. I give this book a really good rating.

After Burning Falls
Love that this follows a character from the Burning Falls series and that it continues to try to resolve the mystery. The characters are interesting with lots of interpersonal issues to resolve which makes everything so much more interesting

Her Alpha Wolf Protector
This book has a very intriguing story line to it. It has very likable characters, many I hope will get their own story. The ending felt a bit abrupt and disjointed, leaving a lot to be answered in future books of the series.

Very good book
Very good story but Lost a star due to the issues in cave Bay that ran throughout the book were not finished. The love story was good but the end did not reflect the contents of the rest of the book unless there is a second part to it.

Intrigue start to the series
Well thought out storyline. Enjoyed the characters and supporting characters. Plenty of twist with an ongoing mystery that is not completely resolved but is definitely a hea for this couple.
