Patricia Briggs is amazing, and if you've not read all ofher
other books, you should. Her Alpha and Omega novels are
fantastic. In fact, they've contributed greatly to new works
in the paranormal romance field featuring werewolves. The
latest installment, FAIR GAME, has Anna Latham attempting to
get everyone around her to see reason: her mate, Charles
Cornick, is being detrimentally affected by being his
father's enforcer. Although he's done the job for hundreds
of years, new rules since werewolves came out to the public
make punishment more common than the traditional
rehabilitation. What's worse is that Charles won't confide
in Anna or let her help him. As the pack's Omega as well as
his mate, this angers and frustrates her. However, Anna and
Charles are given a distraction: to help advise in a
serial-killer case in Boston whose last three victims have
been werewolves. They are quickly surrounded by official
legal politics, wolf politics, and prejudice as they balance
the tightrope of werewolf PR, the investigation, and their
own personal emotional jungle.
The connection between Anna and Charles is excellently
depicted, as is their frustration with Charles' situation.
Although Anna's interactions with ancient werewolves Asil
and Bran are brief, those scenes are, as always, wonderful.
Go read FAIR GAME!
They say opposites attract. And in the case of werewolves
Anna Latham and Charles Cornick, they mate. The son-and
enforcer-of the leader of the North American werewolves,
Charles is a dominant alpha. While Anna, an omega, has the
rare ability to calm others of her kind.
Now that the werewolves have revealed themselves to humans,
they can't afford any bad publicity. Infractions that could
have been overlooked in the past must now be punished, and
the strain of doing his father's dirty work is taking a
toll on Charles.
Nevertheless, Charles and Anna are sent to Boston, when the
FBI requests the pack's help on a local serial killer case.
They quickly realize that not only the last two victims
were werewolves-all of them were. Someone is targeting
their kind. And now Anna and Charles have put themselves
right in the killer's sights...
