    The Alpha Option by Vivian Arend

    The learning curve just grew fangs and claws…

    The out-of-the-blue opportunity to take over a wilderness eco-lodge in the Jasper wilderness is the fresh start Cassidy Rundle and her friends have been looking for. Except the roof of the grand Timberwolf Lodge needs fixing, the rental cottages need to be overhauled, and the seemingly incompetent caretaker who comes with the place is sexy enough to make Cassidy’s brain stutter. Still, she’s determined to ignore all distractions and make this work. When Jace Carter discovers his auntie has given him the Timberwolf Lodge property, but not the building, he expects mayhem to follow. Now he’s back home, dealing with memories, multiple cousins, and an outstanding death threat from the local Alpha. (Who is also a cousin. Go family!) But nothing can compare with discovering his new “boss” is a petite woman with enough attitude to take on a bear—and she’s his fated mate. Cassidy wants to reach for her dreams? Jace will be there to make it happen, even if that means taking over the Jasper pack leadership. Once he explains shifters to his very human mate… The author about the novel’s characters and what to expect:

    “It’s been too long since I last walked on the wild side with the wolfies and other shifters. Writing The Alpha Option was a little like coming home. And this time there’s a brand-new theme to explore. A challenge to achieve, as the new owners of the wilderness lodge only have so much time to prove that they can make. That they belong… The Carter pack of the Jasper area is a big family you’ll get to know more over the series. Which means some great bro-mance banter (cousin banter…would that be cuz-ance banter?) as the pack deals with past troubles and moves into the future. And the heroines you’re about to meet are friends and family to each other in such a deep way that packing everything up and heading all the way across the country to try to run an eco-lodge together is simply the right move. Cassidy, Stephanie, and Stacy are going to be a delight to introduce to you as they find out about shifters, pack, and fated mates.”
