This was a very nice, sweet, story.For those who don’t like sex scenes(who are you people??)this story will be perfect for them, because there is non-intercourse, cero, nada :(They make love many times mind you, but the readers won't get the chance to grab the popcorn and enjoy the action, because these guy's shut the doors on our faces and they didn't give us a chance to even looked through a peephole.Apart from that, it was lovely. REVIEWED FOR PRISM BOOK ALLIANCEAudio 3.75 StarsStory 3.75 StarsThis is a heart warming story. Usually when we read about a pack alpha in a shifter story he is powerful and strong. Brian has a very small pack and doesn’t really have many alpha duties to perform. He doesn’t have to spend all his time intervening between badly behaved wolves or throwing his weight around to make sure people follow rules. He is laid back and generally happy.When human Luke wanders into the moon ceremony, unaware of what he has walked into, Brian bonds with the man in order to save his life. Luke is scared, skittish after his encounter with the large wolf enforcers, and also at the end of his rope where his own life is concerned. Their plan is to separate when the ceremony finishes but the best laid plans don’t always work out!The pair falls for each other pretty quickly, as is often the case in shifter stories, but for me the story is not really about their relationship per se. For me the important thing was how they both grew as people once together and how they both needed and thrived when they built their family. People start turning up to join their pack once they are home. People who have been shunned by their packs for all sorts of irrelevant reasons. People who are not seen as ‘normal’ in shifter society. People who are damaged and have been treated badly and unfairly. Luke, now an alpha through his mating, builds this mismatched family and never turns anyone away. He gives them love, feeds them, talks to them and generally makes them feel welcome and in return everyone respects him and loves him back. Brian, who hadn’t even realised he needed all these wolves around him, grows into a competent alpha with a strong pack.By the time the next moon ceremony comes around something is wrong. It is clear and obvious what the problem is and there is only one thing that will resolve it. Brian comes to truly appreciate just what the heart of his family is and what it means to him. NarrationThis was my first time listening to Stone Canon and I think he did a good job. I found it very easy to just sit back, relax and let him take me through the story. Definitely someone I would listen to again.
