Nathan Donn is exactly where he should not be.

He’s two months into an Arranged pairing that isn’t going to plan. His Pack has been dissolved by the Elders, he’s lost his rank as Second, and he’s failed to form an attachment to his mate, Delta. They can get out of this on a technicality and go their separate ways, and it’s the best thing for the submissive beauty. Pairing up was not what he had expected, so he’s taking her to drop her back into her old life, only when she finds out, he has hell to pay. Delta isn’t the female werewolf he’d thought she was, and now she’s showing him just how badly he’s messing up. The only sanctuary for them is in a Rogue Pack, but war is headed for them, and their bond is dead. He has to prepare his Pack for what is to come, but Delta is consuming him like a fire. His mistake will change the course of their lives and the lives of their Pack forever.

Delta Harrington is exactly where she should be.

She is the mate of the Second in the newly formed Rogue Pack, she has found a best friend, she is slowly breaking down her mate’s defenses, and she feels safe for the first time in a long time. She’s happy. So when Nathan exposes his plot to get rid of her, Delta’s wind is knocked out of her, and her heart is shattered. She has a plan. Her life has a purpose, but all of a sudden she’s alone and has to make it in a shifter world completely separate from the humans. Being a submissive female werewolf isn’t for the weak, and she is about to show everyone in her newfound Pack exactly who she is. Including Nathan. Delta is about to burn everything to the ground.

Protective alpha males with heart, independent heroines with sass, and a Pack of rowdy werewolves just trying to find their normal in an unending string of misadventures. You won’t want to miss this hot-as-fire lovers-to-enemies installment and second book of T. S. Joyce’s bestselling Same series.

Notes for me

Nate and Delta

They are mates due to contract only. He hasn’t bonded with her.

Opens with them on the phone with previous Alpha who is starting a rogue pack.

Delta wants to go so she’s near her friend Nory. Also Nate could be Second again.

Nate is secretive and hiding something. 7% in he drops her back with her dad and her ex Decker who is now Alpha. N didn’t realize Decker was an ex.

26% this makes my heart sad. Delta released Nate from their contract. He wants to be relieved but finds himself missing her. Of course he can’t admit it.

Beautiful ruin.

You get to see the implosion, the hurt. You always get real emotion in any of T's books.

You see the build up... We're all seeing the build up of this pack and it's been a wild ride so far and I'm anxiously awaiting the next one as always.

These two were right people wrong time till he lost her.. you get to see him struggle through his own feelings...

Heartbreaking

Good lord I bawled my eyes out. But it was so good Delta really grew into herself and Nathan took notice. Loved it and I'm looking forward to the next one.

Nathan and Delta❤️‍🩹

The next book in this series is here❣️ Same difference is Nathan and Delta’s story and has me itching for more of these werewolves. They have an Arrangement in place and have just decided to join Liam and Nory at a property Nory has purchased for them all…lots of space to Change and for them to form an informal Pack. Unfortunately, Nate has started putting other plans into action which causes consequences for them both💔

Delta is a female werewolf and submissive, which is a rare combination - when she discovers her mate has put a plan into place that she doesn’t agree with. It causes undue angst and eventually a break down of relations between them. Is this the end of them or can they work together to fix this?

Messy couple are in love, but are traumatised by their previous 'pack'. They are settling in a new place but can't trust their feelings, yet. The h is brave, and takes actions that help them both see their future. Loved it

I will still always try her books, let's get that out of the way. This series, however, is no good. I couldn't finish the first book. I powered through this one but it's not really a romance. It's so depressing and not believable. There really isn't much pack bonding. It's her and Nory being besties but not really. Nate is practically disgusted with her during the first part. He has no respect for her and didn't care about her at all. He knew absolutely nothing about her and never talked to her. His change makes zero sense. He held no affection for her whatsoever. Since they weren't forced to be together his turnaround is forced and not believable. His entire personality changed and I was just as confused as she was.

And I loved that she stood up for herself... sometimes.. but mainly she just said what she wanted and he did the opposite and she was just like, "ok". I guess her backbone was symbolic? I didn't buy them as a couple and I'm with Dodger, I'd discourage that trainwreck, too. Things happened off screen that would've been nice to be included in (like job interview, the alpha fight) but then we got major page time dedicated to things that added nothing (car lot scene). Hopefully I will enjoy the other books that she'll be putting out.

Love the New Series

I call this book an old fashioned love story and I absolutely loved it. Nathan and Delta were an arrangement but they didn't really know each other. Instead of opening up Nathan closed himself off and eventually Delta did the same. The last straw is when Nathan tries to send her back to her father and her old pack and unknowingly her old ex. Delta is heartbroken and decides then and there to dissolve their arrangement. Best decision she could have made. It allowed both of them to grow, to get to really know each other and for Nathan to appreciate what he was so ready to give up. This story has all of the feels and I recommend it highly as an excellent read.

This one was rough, so emotional. I hated the place that Delta was in at the start, but loved that she stood up for herself. Sadly Nate kept putting his foot in his mouth, time and time again. Just when he would end up not on the shit list, something he said would be overhead by Delta and he was back on the shit list. It didn't help that the time the two were together, both were hiding so much from each other. Maybe if they had been truthful from the start things would have been better. In the end, they managed to make it through all the awful to find a place where they were happy, but it was a tough fight to get there for them.

Determined submissive!

Delta was being returned to her old pack without any fore warning and was not going to accept it. For the first time, she fought against the submissive side to accept that Nathan was rejecting her and decided to accept that she had to set her own course.

This is a good story and I look forward to seeing how the Rouge pack changes and challenges the pack establishment.

2nd in this series, wolf shifters, confused like all of us…

Takes two to have a loving relationship, even arranged ones. And if one gives up, for the other the ground is suddenly shifting beneath their feet. Then what? 😡🥺🥵😍
Good series. Love wolf shifters. Packs. T S Joyce writes so well, and shifters? Chef’s kiss!

Same Difference by T. S. Joyce.
The start up of the Rogue pack is rocky.

Read this story to find out how they find their way together.

Same difference

T.s.joyce, books are always the same. Well writen, can't put the book down. Stories are page after page turners. There is always a down side to this writer though. You have to wait on pins and needles to see what she writes next or what her characters will get into.

2.5 stars. I really hate to rate it so low because I love this author and 99.9% of the books/series, but Nate/Nathan and Delta's story wasn't my cuppa at all. I tried. I honestly liked the epilogue better than the rest of the story. Obviously I'll continue with the series, but this book just seriously underwhelmed me. There wasn't any connection with the two mc's at all.

complicated arrangement

Great follow up. An arrangement that just did not move forward and the best intentions to make it right completely BACKFIRE. Learn how a decision breaks walls down and builds people up. There is always antics but sometimes that pushes things along so they can find themselves and their path. Enjoy.

Love this series

Confused feelings and hurt reign in the beginning of this series, as an arranged pair of wolves make mistakes that cost almost everything. As the mistakes are fixed, they find they never knew each other at all, and the new people are much hotter. Can't wait for the next one.

I read this in one sitting, immediately after finishing the first book in also one sitting (with a break near the end of book 1 to grab food to eat while reading). I am going to have to take a break before book three, but I really enjoyed this as well. I enjoyed that Delta didn't just roll-over and let him back in to her heart just because he appeared contrite about what happened.

Loved it! New series, new location, however still the same loveable characters that this author continues to create. You can guarantee that T.S. Joyce will deliver pure escapism on every page, even through the angst and roller coaster of emotions you get to experience.

I certainly enjoyed reading this book. It’s the second in the series. I really enjoyed getting to know the characters in this book and seeing the previous characters and what they’ve been up to. I’m wondering where this rogue pack is going to eventually end up.

Epic Story

I had the full swing of emotions while reading this one, I thought Nathan was a dumb ass until he finally took his head out of his ass. But in the end, they ended up right where they belonged all along. Looking forward to seeing who’s up next !

I loved all of the books set in Damons mountains but these last few books have been very boring. They read as a human story line not a shifter story. Not enough action boring interaction between characters just not her usual caliber of writing. It is almost written as a after thought.

Oh boy this one was a little bit harder of a read with all the emotions and hurt that came for our characters!

This is the thing that makes a good story- heart, hurt, love, laughter and growth! Alpha gives us this every single time!

Cute story

I love me a good TS book. I love the humor of some of the characters. This was a different story with them being arranged. I liked it and am ready for the next book. I feel like we are warming up for something awesome.

Another Good one, loved it!

I don’t get why some people thought this one was depressing or dark. It mirrors life and the difficulty of relationships. It all turns out good in the end, and both Delta and Nathan grew. Great book!
