Brynn Brentwood and Finn Jamenson are representing their packs to the public scrutiny of the humans.

Pretty much the first word that came to my mind after reading this book was WOW. I loved this book. Carrie Ann Ryan does such a fantastic job of creating refreshing and exciting plots.

Finn was introduced to us in the Redwood Pack Series as a baby. It is astounding everything he has been through and physically suffered. Now he is in his thirties and still the heir to his pack. He is incredibly strong and cares for his people.
Because of his injury as a child, he has never been in tune with his wolf and has no idea what he is missing. Finn has quickly become one of my favorite characters.

Brynn has also suffered greatly. She is much older than Finn at over one hundred and fifty. She lived through a horrible existence during her father’s reign as Alpha. Thankfully, she has a good relationship with her brothers who are now leaders of the Talon Pack. My heart went out to her. She thinks she is purposely being rejected by Finn and has been hurting for the past year. She also feels that she has no place in the pack. She is a strong character that is admirable.

There is a lot of mystery in the story. The plot was interesting and believable. I love that important events from the Redwood Pack Series were pertinent to this novel. While Carrie Ann Ryan does an excellent job recapping significant events in prior novels, and this book would be easy to follow as a standalone, I recommend reading the Redwood Pack Series and the then Talon Pack Series. All the books are amazing, and the characters are so well developed I think you would have the ultimate reading experience. I love this series!

Our Review, by LITERAL ADDICTION's Pack Alpha - Chelle:

An Alpha's Choice was my first 'official' foray into the world of the Talon and Redwood packs and I must say... I want more! Passion, conflict, beautiful story arc... Carrie Ann brings it all.

Talon Pack is a spinoff of Carrie Ann's astoundingly successful Redwood Pack series. In Talon, Packs have allied and the secret is out. Shifters exist. The humans aren't completely comfortable with that yet, so the Packs are treading carefully.

Our heroine, Brynn, is an Alpha female with Submissive tendencies. She's had a rough life, and it seems that everywhere she turns things are working against her. The mate her wolf covets doesn't seem to feel the same way about her. Sure, he craves her as a man would any beautiful woman, but she doesn't have that connection with Finn that she feels she should have.

Heir to the Redwood Pack, Finn, is the definition of a tragic hero. He was literally killed and put back together by the Pack's Healer has changed him--both emotionally and physically. His duty to his Pack is first and foremost in his mind, so if he's forced to work with the beautiful and aggravating Brynn, he'll do it. Despite how she affects his libido.

When things with the humans hit a critical plateau, Brynn and Finn must work together to smooth things over and save their Pack but it is anything but easy.... Not only within the conflict, but with each other.

Carrie Ann gives us a beautifully written Paranormal Romance with tons of tension, beautiful back story, an arc that promises loads of goodness to come, and even some parts that will be a bit.... shocking (especially to long-time fans). Intense, wonderful, gripping... two thumbs up!

A Broken Wolf. A Fractured Bond. A Fate Denied.

Brynn Brentwood has spent the whole of her life protecting the Talon Pack through terrors only she will ever know. She’s never asked for more in life other than to live to take her next breath and to ensure her family is safe. Regardless of her selfless wishes and the atrocities the former Alpha committed, she has always known that fate would provide for her as it had countless others. Fate is what has carried her through with one exception—upon meeting the one wolf who could be hers, he doesn’t feel their bond.

Finn Jamenson has been broken more than once, left beaten and half dead—and that was before he was an adult and Heir of the Redwood Pack. When called upon to work with their allies, the Talons, he finds himself intrigued with a woman who his wolf doesn’t claim as his own. Though he knows there could be something there, he refuses to tempt himself with a wolf who could never be his when his own mate could waiting for him.
The world changed in a blink of time and now the two wolves must fight as one—ignoring the burning temptation between them—when their people are threatened. With one wrong move, their homes could be destroyed and its up to Finn and Brynn to save them all…if only they could save themselves.
