message 419: by Sarah (last edited Aug 13, 2011 03:22PM) (new)

Sarah Dizon (sarahd828) | 1376 comments Total bummer! None of the books I have with me work for Alpha Male but I do have some on the list at home, I can get them on Tuesday.

My possibilities:

Slave to Sensation (Psy-Changeling, #1) by Nalini Singh A Hunger Like No Other (Immortals After Dark, #2) by Kresley Cole Desire Unchained (Demonica, #2) by Larissa Ione or Lover Eternal (Black Dagger Brotherhood, #2) by J.R. Ward


So ladies, what's your opinion? Which one should I read?


message 420: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments WOW! All good choices. I'm jumpin' in with my opinion, hope that's ok ;)
(1) S2S (2) DU (3) LE (4) Hunger like no other


message 421: by Sarah (new)

Sarah Dizon (sarahd828) | 1376 comments Steph, of course your opinion is allowed :D

Thank you for letting me know, I'm leaning towards Slave to Sensation but I don't really know a lot about the other books so I'm just trying to get a feel for what everyone thinks :)


message 422: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments ;) Enjoy whichever you pick. All good choices!

BTW I love all the acronyms :D


message 428: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments Steph, I'll jump in cause Dana's gone to Mars, all our stamps are correct.

Sarah, my fav of those listed is AHLNO, then StS, LE and whilst I've got DU I haven't read it yet.

So none of us that offered opinions were the same. LOL


message 429: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments My pick for Alpha Male is The Iron Duke (Iron Seas, #1) by Meljean Brook but I probably won't start it till tomorrow.

Rosina | 1714 comments Sarah

S2S. Is one of my favorite series. Good stories great writing.

DU is my go to smutilicious series. Just love demons getting it on

message 432: by Sarah (new)

Sarah Dizon (sarahd828) | 1376 comments Thanks Zina!

Zaanodes | 804 comments BTW, Sarah...

I really liked all of those books. It was hard to prioritize them!


message 439: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments I agree. LOL

I call those my 'duh' moments! I have waaay too many of those...

Zaanodes | 804 comments Alpha male: River Marked (Mercedes Thompson, #6) by Patricia Briggs Finished Aug 14th ★★★★

This is my favorite Mercy book yet. I feel I got to know Mercy better and I liked her more.

Why it was listed as Alpha Male, I have no clue. Samuel wasn't in it (he was mentioned). Adam didn't really 'ride to the rescue' really. hmmmm. Ah, well.


message 447: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments People sure do shelve weirdly. LOL

Half-way through The Iron Duke (Iron Seas, #1) by Meljean Brook , I'm liking it, but it sure is different.


message 448: by Zaanodes (new)

Zaanodes | 804 comments I have read one of the two shorts for The Iron Duke. I liked it. I don't think I have read anything real close to this. There are some simularities, of course, with other stories. But it sure does have a different take on things, enough to give me pause occasionally.

I will be interested in seeing what everyone thinks about it and if anyone can recall something similar.


message 449: by Dana (new)

Dana (erato) | 922 comments Sorry ladies, I've been off in the land of Patrick Rothfuss reading The Name of the Wind (Kingkiller Chronicle #1) by Patrick Rothfuss and it has been 'in the driver's seat' for a while. :)

So....now that I am back from the land of the lost, I will be reading Blood Bound (Mercedes Thompson, #2) by Patricia Briggs for my alpha male book this week.
