Lovers — Julie L. York

A Male Were Is Only As Good As His Parents ~ Especially One Destined To Rule A Region. Decades before Solomon Aleph became the North American Regional Alpha, his path and destiny were set by his parents ~ Jethro and Sarah. Because of them, he grew up to be the most powerful Regional Alpha on the planet. In the middle of nowhere South Dakota, Jethro Aleph met, fell for, and mated a feisty red head named Sarah. Bravery and strength are requirements for the Alpha pair, and the two together became an unstoppable combination. Knowing that their pup would someday be in charge of North America, they hid little, about life and leadership from Solomon. Regional Alphas don't openly adore their mates. Their Alpha females do not tell their mates what to do. Fathers do not laugh and play with their pups. Without question, pups are to be put into their place. But Alephs do not follow rules. Poignant, life altering moments happened often to their small family. But in order to survive, they learned to thrive during devastating lessons of betrayal and loss. Lessons Solomon never forgot. This remarkable series starter novella showcases those unforgettable - and sometimes unforgivable - moments in the lives and world of the Aleph family. Julie's contemporary world of modern day shifters ~ werewolves, werecats, and other weres ~ is based on science and DNA, not unknown magic. Enter the world of the Aleph Series Stories.
