Alistair is almost five centuries old and although he’s had a good life, it’s always been lacking something important. His One. Like a shifter’s mate, a warlock’s One is the most important person in their life, and they’d do absolutely anything for them, including sacrificing their own self for the needs of their perfect match.

River’s life changed drastically after his mother died when he was a teenager. Given away to an alpha that wasn’t his mate,
River spent years locked up and abused until one day he somehow managed to escape. A chance meeting with another alpha would change his life and cement his future.

Alistair and River have to figure out the dynamics of their claiming while trying to thwart the looming threat from those after the ones from ancient lines. Will they come out the victors or do the fates have other plans?

Alistair’s One is the third book in the Timber Valley Wolf Pack Series. Because of the continuing story line these are best read in order. Each book focuses on a different couple, but the back story is ongoing. This book is intended for adults only as each book contains a fated mate pair, Mpreg, knotting during howly sexy times, and babies. These alphas will do anything for their mates, just read and see.

Love this author’s work. This is the third book in this mpreg series. This crosses over with her other mpreg series and they need to be read in order. This book is about Alistair the warlock and River a wolf shifter and Alistair ‘s one. Lots of extra characters in this story, we have met before in the other books, sometimes gets confusing. Can’t wait to read the next book in the series.

Alistair's One

Ha! Those people were dealt their karma. They were given the opportunity to change their ways and declined. It was perfect.

A Warlock, a wolf, and the Fates walk into ...

This series keeps getting better! All my old friends welcomed me back into their lives. This book has it all: reunions, resolution of an ongoing problem, fated mates, lots of teleporting, really hot sex, visions and babies. Oh, did I mention the Fates intervening? You are gonna love this book!
Alistair has waited a long time to find his One. Once he sees River he has to claim him. But River has been horribly abused and doesn't trust alphas. But his wolf tells him to trust this Warlock. Smartest decision ever!
River & Alistair are perfect together. Even when the dream visions start revealing the war to come to River & the other pregnant omegas, they stay strong. The coven, pack & den will unite as one. The old lines will meet the Fates, who will surprise everyone with their solution. HEA is assured.
This is a continuation of the first books. Please read them in order. You will be glad you did. I cannot wait to read the next book.
This book contains adult themes and language, mm sex and is intended for mature readers only.

River (Omega, Wolf) has a sad backstory BUT him and Alistair (Alpha, warlock) are perfect for each other. It truly was such a fun and cute book.

I love these types of books after I’ve read a dark romance novel. Because these books make me think of sunshine and rainbows.

Now, I’m not 100% sure this is the last book of the series. I’m trying to think of any unmated characters we’ve been introduced too and nothing comes to mind.

If it’s the end, these series has been fun.

SPOILER QUESTIONS BELOW. IF YOU DON’T WANT TO KNOW STOP READING HERE.



A few unanswered questions: Who did Gage and Jules meet at the other realm? Why was Jules upset?

I know their story is not going to be easy from what happened at the previous book. But I was kind of still surprised that River easily accepted Alistair.. maybe it was because they're mates and he knows he can't lose him even if he was still distrustful and afraid. With Alistair's love and patience, they started their wonderful adventure together. From saving a young wolf, to visiting the fates, they had a lot of action in this book to the end of the threat -- Gordon. I'm also glad that River finally reconnected with his brother and a wonderful surprise... that Sterling's brother is going to be the mate of one of the characters.

Lots going on in this book. The focus is on Alistair, a warlock grandson of Edison and Wallace, and his One, an abused young wolf omega, River.
River was one of the Alaskan refugees that found their way to Montana. Given as a mate to a brutal older wolf, Eric, he has suffered much abuse and self doubt. Unable to understand why such a powerful warlock would want such a nothing, it takes a lot of reassurance and love before River is able to realize that he's a very strong, able omega.
Just desserts is handed out to River's abuser. And the problem with the rogue alpha, Gordon, is resolved most satisfactorily.

LOVELY

I love this series and this was again a lovely story like the rest of them . River had a tough life but when he meet his one is was sweet and love they had some issues but then Alistair stepped up and was an amazing ALPHA to his OMEGA . The war is over hopefully for now. I hope we get to meet the new comers like Cameron and how he is doing with his one ☺☺. I started reading and could not out of down until the ended sigh i wanted more lol I hope everyone enjoyed it as much as I have. Have a wonderful read you will love it.

3⭐⭐⭐

Me gusto, sinceramente me gusto mas que otros, fue un buen libro la personalidad de Alistair me gusto mucho, fue muy paciente con River y siempre lo ponia como su prioridad, cuidaba de el y de sus sentimientos, sinceramente lo ame. Es uno de los pocos libros donde ame a ambos protagonista, creo que después de Arin y Ryker ellos han sido la pareja mas madura y bonita que ha habido en todos los libros, River era hermoso, sufrio mucho y aun asi pudo salir adelante y ser feliz por Alistair y su pequeño Benny.

Alastair tinha oferecido sua ajuda para encontrar a família de um novo membro da matilha, mas ao retornar ele encontrou seu único. E bom sabendo um pouco sobre seu passado ele fez uma escolha, porém a dor e a decisão fez o que era melhor, pois seu companheiro veio para seu resgate e tudo correu bem. River estava seguro, e agora tinha um companheiro, ele tinha superado o pior e conseguido vencer e encontrar seu ligar seguro e com um baby a caminho. Seu pesadelo ganhou um castigo. O mal ganhou seu castigo e tudo estava bem. E mais alguns encontraram seus companheiros. Bjo.

This was a very enjoyable and fascinating read. River was mated to a warlock (which really had its perks) :), Alistair, and together they were simply enchanting and extremely passionate. I was very intrigued with the characters in the story and I'm really looking forward to reading the next book in the series. This was fun and very imaginative, especially the punishments that were dished out and well deserved. Awesome.

Great addition to the series

I loved this addition to the series. River and Alistair made a great couple. I loved how Alistair left it all up to River to claim him or not, and even though River was scared, he put his Alpha first and pushed past his fears. This was a wonderful read, and I can't wait till the next one.

💜💜💜💜💜

This is a paranormal queer romance with mpreg, the third book in the “Timber Valley Wolf Pack”series which comes after the “Honey Creek Den” series that should be read in order. Alastair is willing to sacrifice himself not to pressure his One, River. They are so good together and their story is worth reading!

Best one in this series

This was definitely my favorite in this series. I found that the story was much tighter and more consistent than the previous two books. I also loved the justice that was delivered, both by Alistair and by the Fates.

Surprises

I'm so in love with Alistair! I love, what he did to that no good Eric. He deserve that and so much more. River was so strong even if he didn't think so. What happens to Gordon and his so called pack. Was so worth the wait.

Perfectly Deliciously Sweet

These two were so sweet even with the little bumps in the beginning and boy were they sexy. Alistair's punishment for Eric was perfect.

I do wish we knew what the gates shared with Jules and Gave though

River had gone through so much abuse at the hands of his brothers supposedly best friend. He has trouble trusting alphas.
Alistair is a warlock and River’s mate. Things at first are a little bumpy. This is such a sweet romance.

A brilliant book

I really loved this book but definitely a tear jerker I was happy that all the young omega found their perfect alphas'. This author is new to me but i love the story and the characters constantly revisit other books.
This was an easy 5 stars from me.
