Description from the publisher:
Step into a world of shifters, witches, ghosts and romance...

Ainsley Connor has turned her back on her past.

Her perfect life as a successful real estate agent in Manhattan makes her memories of growing up as the daughter of a werewolf seem like a dream. But when a tragic accident forces her back to her unusual hometown, she can't repress her inner wolf any longer.

Worse, the pack needs her to settle down and pick a mate. But how can she choose when the tiny college town is full of sexy shifters, all vying for her attention?

And the shifters aren't even the strangest thing about Tarker's Hollow...

˃˃˃ In Episode 1...
Ainsley Connor is on a mission to get back to the penthouses of Manhattan before the full moon. Will the pack manage to stake their claim on her before it's too late?

˃˃˃ In Episode 2...
Ainsley learns about the danger facing the pack, and discovers that someone she trusts is hiding a dark secret. Will she be able to restrain the beast inside as it struggles to break free?

˃˃˃ A Continuing Story...
Curse of the Alpha: Episodes 1 & 2 are the first novellas in the Curse of the Alpha serial. Think of them like episodes of a TV show. They tell their own story, but you will need to read more parts to get the full tale of Ainsley Connor, a female werewolf, and her struggle to come to terms with her past, and accept her true nature and her role in the future of the pack. It is romance with sex, and is NOT intended for readers under the age of 18.

If you don't like serials and/or romance with sex, then this is probably not for you!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

CURSE OF THE ALPHA, EPISODE 1&2 are the first two episodes in the first book in the Tarker’s Hollow series.  They do need to be read in the order of release.

The story is fast-paced, erotic, full of mystery, and filled with plenty of wolves.  I couldn’t put it down and kept sneaking away to read another page or two (or chapter or two).  It is written in old-fashioned serial style, and the cliffs are perfectly placed. I was thankful that episode 2 was an immediate continuation, but now I need episode 3&4!

I didn’t like Ainsley in the first episode.  She’s with the wrong guy!!!  I wanted to scream at her.  By the time I got to the cliff hanger of the second one, I found out that I had guessed his secret correctly, but now what?  I’m repeating myself, but I need the next book!

Narration:  The narration is easy to listen, but it is not suitable for work.  Don’t tell anyone, but I was listening during lunch break while nobody else was around – shhhh!  I like that she was able to give so many voices to the characters.

Note:  while I was given this book as a gifted audiobook copy, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
