The H in this book definitely wasn’t as bad as some reviews make him Out to be. Sure he makes some stupid mistakes but even though he’s out for revenge he’s always got that love for the h still locked inside. The h Braelyn rejected the H Saint 10 Years ago to save him from Being murdered by her evil father... Braelyn is special because she has the blood of an ancient god wolf…:Now Saint is back for retribution as her father is a shifter trafficker and sold the H and his friends into sexual slavery instead of letting them go like he promised Braelyn. Alpha Saint kills her father and takes over the pack. Braelyn is an altruistic alpha who sacrificed her self for her pack over and over. Saint doesn’t see this and thinks she could be guilty of trafficking too. He thinks she’s a slut until he takes her V card. After she helps save trafficking victims He leaves her in the holding pens so she can see what it feels like. He leaves her with his mistress and Lucas who is evil. They are supposed to take her home after a few hours but torture her with knives for a week with no food or water and chained by her hands hanging in the cargo holder. She almost dies By the time Saint returns and frees her. He’s so sorry etc. yeah right…Meanwhile since the beginning Saint and his friends have been looking for Jane Doe who Braelyn father has been torturing since she was around 6 yo.we’re talking about 20 plus years of being skinned alive and other horrendous ongoing torture. Wonder who that could be??? Saint and his expert tracking friends who have freed thousands of victims are too dumb to figure it out. Duh! Instead of coming to the conclusion of every reader of this book they assume Braelyn is pampered
By Daddy Dearest and call her Princess as an insult. After some more angst they finally figure it out. Then throw in a return of evil Lucas and the push for the hea. This was way better than I was expecting and I really enjoyed it despite some Of the plot holes.

Dark, sexy and wonderfully addicting.

Do not be fooled by this beautiful cover full of colors. This romance is very dark and can be difficult to read. Authors are human, they writes with theirs lives all around them, sometimes we can feel it and this is the case here. This story is worth reading if you like dark romances or are in the mood to read it. I love everything Amelia writes, yet I rarely like standalones .. but she has managed to create an entire, rich and compelling universe in one book by creating an addictive story with deep characters.
Must read !

Great, as always

I love Amelia’s writing and Alpha’s Claim is no different! She gives trigger warnings right at the start, so those who ignore them.. that’s on them. She writes complicated characters and great chemistry. Saint and Brae (and Chaos!!) were a wild ride but worth it!

Another good read by Amelia. It was nice reading a stand alone, knowing all the rage in my heart directed at a particular alphahole would resolve in a few chapters versus books *looking at you Knox*

I enjoyed the story, a refreshing take on wolf packs. Of course this follows a very typical Amelia layout, so if you haven’t liked her other books you probably won’t like this one. If you don’t like bully romances/possessive men/dark romance you won’t like it. If you love Amelia’s books? I think it’s worth a read. Was it my favourite? Not really. But I enjoyed it anyway.

I can’t wait to read Enzo’s story, which seems to be set up at the end of this one. This book ties in with Bulletproof Damsel, and I cannot WAIT for the next book in that series. PLEASE tell me we get more of cole

Almost unreadable for torture and angst and horrible treatment by the hero— seriously, the group around him too and all his friends threatened to do- it was just ugh.
