The Blood Legacy Chronicles #1
Alpha's Dream
Ages ago, the gods locked away a dangerous, powerful people... but the seal has been broken...
Clark, a bear descended from one of the original omega lines, has always known Kent was destined to be his mate, thanks to his visions. Clark's ability to see past, present, and future is powerful, but even he can't see a straight line out of the dark days ahead of them.
Kent, a descendant of the original alphas, has seen Clark in his dreams since they were children. He's been yearning for the day when he can finally touch his mate and not just walk in his dreams.
After the sparks fly between them and they unwittingly break an eons old treaty, the powerful couple must trust each other's gifts and a motley crew of shifters to save their new family... all while Clark is pregnant with triplets.

About the author
Susi Hawke
152 books1,063 followersI'm a total fan of M/PREG Paranormal Romances, first and foremost as a reader. I'm excited to share my own omegaverse(s) with you. What's not to love about adorable Omegas and the Alpha men who love them? If I'm not writing about men sporting baby bumps, I'm definitely reading about them!
I'm a native of Las Vegas, NV, so I'm pre-wired to love everything weird ~ although I don't find any kind of love to be weird. I'm a cis woman who's been happily married to the same lovable lug for 18 years. We have a 16yr old son, well, at least I think we do? Either that, or we have a ghost that eats all our food and uses up all wifi playing xbox while screaming into a headset.
As a new author, it's been amazing to find the amount of support that I've been given from readers and my fellow authors. Feel free to message me, I love to chat with fellow readers. Am I a reader? Heck yeah! In fact, I'm never certain that I can completely trust an author who isn't a fellow bibliophile.
I will try to update here when I'm doing promotional parties & chats. I usually do those on Facebook. If you haven't already signed up for my newsletter, you should totally do it! I only send out NL's to announce new releases or important announcements. I also like to note in my NL what I'm currently reading along with a cover shot and the link for anyone who is interested.
I look forward to interacting with everyone here!

Not feeling it....
Okay, so it’s probably just me but this story was a no go for me. First, I do love pet names. I think they are cute and heartfelt. However, after reading “honeybuns” more than once, it was driving me up the f*cking wall! I think I might of rolled my eyes every time I came across this. Oh, and if you need to know, that’s 22 times!
Furthermore, the two MCs have been meeting in dreamscapes for the last 15 years, and known since the age of 10 that they were mates. Even with all of this I still couldn’t see the chemistry between them.
All in all, every part that I felt would have been climatic was quite the opposite unfortunately. So, this will be another series that I will place on the back burner for now.

Yes, I got my story!!
3.5 stars
I am so glad that Ms. Hawke wrote the continuing story of the Den and Lodge. Clark and Kent have been sent on a mission by the Goddess Artio. Through their mission they meet Sean, Cody and Heath. So I see at least 3 more books in the works.
We still have editing errors, grammatical phrases that don't make sense but I am intrigued by where the storyline will go. Next book Sean and Heath.

Everything was too fast, I didn’t have time too feel for the characters.

I love a good mpreg story! This is a new series by an author that I’ve recently been really enjoying! The first thing you have to do is ignore the whole Clark Kent, Peter Parker thing… it doesn’t mean anything except the families have known each other so they named their children that way and though it seems weird, the couples end up together with the names matching.
I don’t think there is anything “ground breaking” in this series, but the blood legacy thing is kind of interesting and finding the other shifters from the original families is interesting. If you enjoyed the original series – https://www.goodreads.com/series/217322 - this is a spinoff and is very similar.

Clark and Kent have always known they were Fated Mates, they were just waiting for the right time to mate. Clark' s visions have shown him the time is now and Kent's brother has also said the time is right for Kent to claim his mate. And so destiny unfolds and their claiming leads to a break of a long ago pact. Now it's up to them and the rest of the Legacy descendants to find a way to save mankind.
Clark and Kent are adorable, sexy and hilarious together. The story is intriguing and entertaining, definitely one that keeps you wanting to read more. I can not wait to read the other books coming in this new series. Definitely a recommended book.

Loved it, except for the honeybun endearment. That was a little annoying. Loved the nod to the DC characters that was so cute. I can’t wait to follow them on their journey and seeing the family grow.

**********Contains Spoilers**********
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and think it’s a great start to a new series. Seer Clark and Dreamwalker Kent have known their whole lives that they’re true mates but have only seen each other once when they were 10 years old. Even though they didn’t know for sure if they’re mates but had a knowing using their legacy powers passed down from their dads they still had never thought or touched another person as they felt like it was betraying their true mate. After completing their bond, they dreamscape to a glen which happens to be in Ireland and encounter the goddess Artio spirit and she gives them a message saying that when they sealed their bond and got pregnant with 3 super babies since they’re both from legacy families, their babies conception broke the hold placed on the portal to the fae realm that was sealed eons ago and it’s their mission to save mankind along with the other legacy descendants. They’re the first to go to visit Goddess Artio’s companion the Phoenix Effie, the Brownie Maon and the Gargoyle Protectors Enzo and Hugo to get the next clue. I’m really looking forward to reading Sean and Heath’s story which should be interesting as Heath doesn’t believe he is that cool to have powers but since he’s a halfling he only has the ability to partial shift but I don’t think it’s on demand, and I’m looking forward to meeting the other legacy descendants and following along on their collective mission to save mankind from the Fae if the portal fully opens. I’d definitely recommend this book, series and author to everyone.

DNF @45%
There was just so many things that did not work in this book, that there was no way I could finish.
So, the prologue, completely unnecessary because that whole plot concept could and should have been written better. It's almost like the author thought that more is more and having all these characters and trying to wrap the conflict up in them would make the story interesting.
The MCs met once. Do these people have no technology ? Oh the two MCs haven't seen each other in years - so no phone calls then. Why not ?
The Alpha behaves like an omega. The omega does not seem like he takes anything seriously. They're supposed to be finally mating, after having waited for over a decade, and he's smirking, making fun of his mate whom he basically renames Romeo, and then, THEN (this is bad), he actually says something like "I have the right to know what's going up my a$* yo !"
Oh yes, you read that right. Is this book from the 90s? And the whole "yo" thing came up more than once in the first 1/2 of the book. And yeah, the cringe worthy Honeybuns. Also, throwing random words in Spanish in there does not give the story a feeling of being in whatever country this is supposed to take place.
Nope, sorry, no way I can finish this book or think it's short of mediocre.

I liked the characters and I easily got the Easter eggs of the names Clark and Kent, and Peter and Parker. However, the story was thin and short. For a reader well-versed in the world of the MPREG, the Alphas, the Betas and the Omegas, this could be a well liked story that makes sense.
As a still new reader of MPREG I'd like to know more about the world that accepts shapeshifters and same-sex relationships. I know the series goes more in-depth about the Founders and the families origins and legacies but for me a little more was needed. I felt like if this were fanfiction I'd need to know the original story written by the author before reading it. As it was, quite a few times I got lost or confused.
I'd really like to hear from other readers what they thought of this story.

I'm giving this book 3.5 stars. It was a good, quick read. I loved seeing the children from the first two series and the plot for this series being outlined and started in this book. I had a hard time keeping track of who was who's children since it was Clark and Kent who are the mated pair for this book. So that was difficult for me and it may not be for others. There were also some editing errors and in one chapter, it just ended mid sentence. I bought the book from Amazon (ebook) so I don't think it was an edition issue, I think it would be there in any version. It was a good start for the series and I'm excited to read the rest.

I really liked this book, but for some reason I had such a problem keeping my names straight. I would flip back to the beginning and be like “Sean. Have we met a Sean...oh...OH SEAN” idk and I felt like some of the scenes were a little choppy and I had to read them twice, but now I think I have a better understanding. I love Clark and Kent and I didn’t even register their super name until someone said something and then I was cackling. They’re a super sweet couple and I loved them. I just wish it was longer so I could enjoy their lovey-dovey time more

A great beginning to this series!
This series is a spin-off to the Northern Lodge Pack and the Northern Pines Den series '. I would highly suggest that you read the previous series prior to starting this one. They're both available in bundles, and are fantastic stories that will help you understand this series more. There's a lot of unexpected twists in this book, and obviously a lot more to come! I can't wait to read the rest of this series!
I would definitely recommend this book, series, and great author.

Worth more than 5 stars. Susi out did her self. If you like paranormal than you will love this book. It is paranormal in a paranormal book. Not just shifters but you get acient forklore with fae, and Bear goddess....
You will get so wrap up in the journey these off springs of our favorite wolf/bear/ jaguar groups have to go on. You will see when and how they find their fated mate and how they save their people.

Brilliant
Been long time awaiting for Kent and Clarks books and for them to be fated mates a total plus. Their mannerisms and the way the are together are so sweet and natural and hilarious. I would totally recommend starting with Omega Stole from Northern lodge pack and then follow on with the next series Northern Pines Den series as this is the first book after those series . I know I be right on buying as soon as new ones are out.

No more, yo.
If you read the book you'll get my review title. I would have rated this 4 stars except for the multiple times "yo" was used. Ugh! I get this is a new series based on the children of the previous series so maybe the author was trying to add younger generational language but to me it was annoying. It also felt like it jumped around to new scenes without good transitions. However, I did enjoy the story and will read the next one in the series.

Cute and not too long. I think I'm going to like this series!
The beginning was a little hard to get my head around but once Clark got to Belize, things picked up and I really ended up liking their story. The play on names is cute. And there are some cute moments. I'm sure the further the story goes and the more that is revealed, the more I will like it. But definitely a cute start to the series.

Okay book
This book was well written with only a few grammatical errors,and the characters....all of them , we're very well developed. But Clark and Kent were seemed very young and immature to me throughout the book, and the family was too much in their relationship. There were very little, if any, boundaries at all. I struggled to get through this book. It just didn't hold my interest despite being well written.

Amusing new start to a new series
I like this concept of a long journey with many different couples along the way. If I know anything about this author is that she is good at making a long plot line work. Even if this is mostly feel good stuff, things can get emotional. No complaints from me though.
Clark was amazing, tough and levelheaded
Kent was an adorable dork but I thought it was interesting what he and his brother could do.
Absolutely loved! 8.5/10 🐆

This is going to be quite the interesting series! We are introduced to the goddess Artio, brownie, faes, gargoyles and a Phoenix. We are now meeting the children from the Northern series again as they are now adults. Clarke and Kent always knew they were fated mates and chose not to tell their dad's until they decide it is time for them to complete the mate bond. We meet more species of the founding families. Hold onto your hats folks as this is going to a nail biting series.
December 4, 2017
I really liked the start to this new series and the new generational continuation of the Northern Pines Den series. Very funny and lots of new characters introduced. Will need to read the prior series to understand some of the previous characters and inside jokes with names and things, though. Wish it was longer, but overall great start to the new series!

It’s the next generation!!
One of my favorite shifter mpreg series (Northern Pines Den and Northern Lodge) and continues into the next generation. I love all of the characters from all of the books. This first installment was a solid book and I love the mystery aspect to this series. Great mythology and world building

Good start to the series. Loved the storyline. Kent and Clark knew they were mates since they were little. But they never formally scented each other, since the time wasn't right. Now they're older and ready to be mates officially. As magically as they're mating was, it causes some issues that have to be addressed. Looking forward to the next book.

Susi the way that you connect all Of your books and character's is nothing short of a miracle. I love your books and I finish one book then I have to wait until I get the next. Thanks for letting me come along on the journey. Anyone that wants to read any good books I recommend getting this series.

Another in a series of fun, sometimes silly, and romantic stories.
Susi Hawks has an amazing way of bringing her characters to life and giving them fun personalities. This is another of hers series that I didn't know if I would like, but turns out they are going to be fun and a little knotty with a romantic drive, but a little mystery too. Oh yes, also a happy ending.

Liked this a lot
I love the naming theme using superheroes. I also love that there isn't a species divide. This worl seems pretty normal besides shifters being unknown in the world. There is some world building but there isn't a sense of where their money comes from or if there is a concern with humans. I enjoyed Clark's and Kent's first night together. It was hilarious.

This was such a delightful and enchanting read. Clark and Kent are mates who have seen each other in dreams, but have never told their parents that they are mates. I found this story to be extremely cute and very imaginative. I'd like to continue on with this series and see how this legacy goes. Great characters and exciting plot. Loved it. =)
April 30, 2020
Oh wow, so I started this new (to me) series and it has everything one could wish for: shifters, an ancient prophecy, quests and trials and adorable Alphas and Omegas finding their mates!
Book one is about power couple Clark & Kent (really) whose bond sets in place all the endeavors this series will follow throgh the books: a reeally good start!

*WARNING* story contains explicit m/m adult content.
It seems these is going to be a series that needs to be read in order, but it's off to a great start. This story has a variety of paranormal species and this very first mating starts a quest or mission to save humankind. I'm interested to see where all of these odd clues lead.

This was really cheesy and a bit immature. I liked reading it because it was easy and light. I wouldn't say this was a good book though. It just is too simplistic. I had not true feeling for the characters. I am a little curious where the plot will go but I don't know about continuing the series.
January 17, 2024
I would give it a 5 but for me, the plot in moments was a bit too chaotic mostly regarding the Legacy gifts and storyline. But I adored the pairing! I waited until I got my hands on this book because I knew from the previous series that they would be together. And I wasn't mistaken about that and how fun and refreshing this pair had been!
