Graphic has the book cover and a quote: "I could never figure out why you were so insistent I was the alpha." "Because I knew the truth, even when you were too stubborn to see it," Van said. "No one else but you could have been our alpha. You are the heart of Willow Lake." Asshole. He was trying to make me cry. Graphic has the book cover on a background with a wolf howling at the full moon and the text "The wolf who refuses to be alpha."

The wolf who refuses to be Alpha. Hayden Walker might be trapped in Willow Lake by guilt and duty, but he’s no one’s alpha. It doesn’t matter how many times people call him Alpha, with a capital A like it’s his name, he just isn’t—just ask his last pack. They had no problem rejecting him to follow his traitorous brother, Robbie, twelve years ago. Hayden thought he’d come to terms with what happened back then, but it turns out some things don’t get easier to accept with time. After discovering his brother’s latest sinister activities, Hayden can’t hide from the truth anymore. He has to stop him, particularly when Ryley Bell, his fated mate, is his brother’s latest victim. Hayden can’t let his brother harm anyone else. Robbie won’t take anyone else from him. Not again. Never again. Tags: MM Fated Mates Paranormal Romance, a wolf who refuses to be Alpha, a faun who doesn’t put up with his mate’s nonsense, let’s pretend a kick in the face is a sign of love at first sight, the Eternal Magic is a persistent diva, the confrontation between brothers we’ve all been waiting for, Hayden has a pack whether he wants one or not, he will also get his happily-ever-after whether he wants one or not, wolves should listen to their clever mates, and, most importantly, not all fauns play flutes. Willow Lake Supernaturals Series Note: Books in this series are best enjoyed when read in order. Book 1 - Hellhounds Never Lie (Ash and Dillon) Book 2 - Wolves Always Bite (Jeremy and Adrian) Book 3 - Oracles Always Win (Jake and Gage) Book 4 - Cats Never Fly (Simon and Ogden) Book 5 - Alphas Never Hide (Hayden and Ryley) Alphas Never Hide is the fifth and final book in the Willow Lake Supernaturals series, but DON'T WORRY!

Everyone turned to face me and a wave of soft, reverent whispers of "Alpha" swept through the room.

Aw... I love Ash and Dillon! Have you read Hellhounds Never Lie yet? (Blurb is in the ALT text)
www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...
#mmparanormalromance #mmromance #kindleunlimited
A mage without magic. A hellhound without a home. A greedy wolf pack in the hills. Ash is technically a fire mage, but he can’t do much. Turning his bedroom lights on and off without having to get out of bed isn’t exactly awe inspiring, not when anyone with the right gadget could clap and do the same thing. Worse, sometimes he senses something bigger and brighter lurking under his skin, and it feels so familiar he knows it has to be his magic, but then he burps or sneezes, and the feeling passes. So it’s probably just allergies… or gas. Yeah… Not exactly brimming with magical oomph. Not anymore. It sucks. But things start to change when he finds Dillon, a hellhound, being chased through the woods by an angry wolf pack. He is instantly smitten and it’s like something inside him unlocks. What’s even crazier is Dillon seems to think Ash still has magic… and now Ash isn’t sure what to believe. What he does know is he’ll do what needs to be done to protect his friends and the little supernatural town of Willow Lake from the dirtbag wolves in the hills. Even with his magic on the fritz he can help, right? And, with Dillon at his side, what could possibly go wrong? Tags: MM Paranormal Romance with Fated Mates! A hellhound looking for a home, a fire mage without magic, a talking cat, a small town full of supernatural beings, size difference (BIG hellhound, small mage), fated mates, Ash has scars inside and out, Dillon wants to hurt people who hurt Ash, Ash is always cold (hello, big fluffy pink sweaters even in summer), and a curious human BFF who knows nothing about supes but has a very active imagination.
