review 1: Noah is the Alpha of the Dillon family and is conflicted between finding the one female who can sedate all of his packs needs and finding out who is trying to destroy all that is important to his kind. The decision to introduce Eve MacMillan, their destined mate, to the shape-shifter world has spun each member of the pack into their own delirium. Noah blames his lack of self control when it comes to Eve for the consequences of the wolves in Passion, Alaska being slaughtered, as well as his brother, Ethan being attacked and left for dead. He needs to bring order back to the pack and for him to do that is to push Eve away and deny his true feelings.Eve is getting herself deeper involved with the Dillon pack and more and more questions are being unanswered or even avoided... more. She feels Noah pulling away from her and she has no idea of how to stop it. Eve knows that if she let's the Alpha go she will lose the only love she has ever had and that would be soul destroying.This novella carries straight on from where Seducing Their Mate finished and has the same tempo and sexy fun. The Alpha's Fall is another quick read that adds a bit more to the continuing story, but mainly focuses on the relationship between the pack and Eve. The erotic scenes between Eve and her Dillon men are well written, sexy and hot, but my favourite scenes are when it is just Eve and Noah. The intensity of Noah's lovemaking is such that there is noway Eve can disrepute how he feels about her. There is just enough of the background story to keep the momentum going and prevents it from just being page after page of pure erotic indulgence.
review 2: This is Book 2 of the serial series 'Great Wolves of Passion, Alaska'. It's available at Siren/Bookstrand in monthy installments.I like this monthly serial about scientist Eve McMillan and the Dillon pack that's trying to convince Eve that she's their destined mate. Eve is there studying wolves in the wild.The Dillon 'pack' consists of Noah - the Alpha - his brother, Ethan - also a scientist - and their cousins. They control a vast section of Alaskan wilderness that also is home to bear and arctic fox shifters.We also are introduced to Noah and Ethan's parents in this installment. Their very handsome father is the ex-Alpha of the pack.In this installment, Eve is bothered by the emotional distance she thinks she is experiencing from Noah since the attack on Ethan. She just doesn't have much experience with men and doesn't understand Noah's responsibilities.For Noah's part, the inattention he has been having because of Eve has left him feeling guilty that the attack on Ethan was his fault (Alpha angst, lol). As a human, Eve reacts differently to almost everything than Noah thinks she should - she is too independent and argumentative.At least by now, they have fallen in love with each other, and Eve is beginning to understand what makes the Alpha act as he does. For his part, Noah is beginning to understand Eve - if only a little.Very dramatic ending to the installment and we were given a small glimpse of the attackers and their possible motive.There is sex of all sorts in this book (group, oral, anal, mild spanking), but it's less pervasive than the story line, which is wonderful, and the sex scenes don't take up an inordinate amount of pages that one tends to skip through after one or two scenes.Eve is a likeable heroine, intelligent and not a 'feisty, crude' woman. Noah is a likeable Alpha that is suddenly having to deal with a crisis on top of a new mate. The brother Ethan functions well as the intelligent Beta that is a go-between in the Eve/Noah relationship as does Shane, the affectionate and playful cousin.Kiera West is doing a great job with this serial series, and I would hope that she compiles it into a single book at some point. I'd buy it again. less

I did not like this one. I hope that the next one is better because this one was disappointing.
