This is the conclusion to Alek's story. She has made progresses with her three mates. They all want her, but she's still a little bit reticent to let herself all go with them. She's scared of what they might think of her past, but when someone threatens their relationships, all bets are off. And her mates surprise her by showing her how much they love her and how far they are willing to go for her.

The story was so so, but there were a lot of sexy times.

Relentless is book 2 in the Prowl series.

She picks up right where Reckless left us. It was so freaking good. I am still in LOVE with the FMC she is such a bad bitch.⠀She stands up for the smaller people and she is always just concerned about learning the truth.

I hate Hades mom she is such a stuck up bitch. Sorry not sorry.

I love that the men are still constantly reassuring the FMC of her worth.

Also thank you @ajmerlinauthor for touching on that even MEN can be pushed beyond their hard limits in sexual situations by other men. It was a short scene but I love that Hades had limits and stood his ground and stuck up for his friends Sexual limits as well. A+++

I so enjoyed the conclusion of this duet. I just had to know how our main characters would solidify their relationship. Although it was a shifter novel it was more contemporary problems with a side of shifter. It was a good combination.

I loved seeing the relationship evolve between the four main characters and how they overcame the obstacles in their way. The media, those against their relationship, a monster-in-law… It was a good combination. I also loved the side characters, especially Alek’s family.

I feel like I was completely engrossed in this novel and was cheering them on throughout everything. Other than a few obstacles encountered, it was a really sweet love story. I’m so happy that this was made into a duet because I think the author had a great progression of the plot and the characters and concluded the story perfectly.

Relentless ❤️

I'm so sad this is a Duet. I really would love more on Alek and her guys. I actually enjoyed the storyline and never found myself bored or struggling to stay interested. I love that she took time to really know what she wanted and went for it on her own terms. I also loved that Hades, Wilder, and Roman respected that. I loved the guys dynamics. The MM was hot

Inconsistent storyline

Pros:
Diversity in shifters
Characters were OK the one I liked best was Roman.

Cons:
I felt Wilder fell bit flat like the author needed to put a bad boy so she threw him in there
Inconsistencies and I mean by alot
The first book the mother was killed by suicide by cops but here she is alive and well
The FMC supposedly looked like her dad reasons her mother didn't like her but long and behold she looks just like her mother when they see each other
And did the author not remember they already said I love you in the last chapter and made it seem the characters said for the first time in another?

The story felt it was written just to have another book just because. The author needs to read her own books to remember what she wrote. First book wasn't bad they didn't need to add to that.

I really liked the way the author wrapped up Alek’s story here. There were some minor grammatical issues and typos throughout the book that could use some TLC. Overall though, I’m happy that I came back to read this book despite having read the first one months ago.

Alek is forced to face her past, but with her alphas standing behind her, she can make it through anything.

I FLOVED this book so much. This author has such a way with words. We learn so much more about Alek and her background and we get to understand more of why she is the way she is. Her relationship with her Alphas is growing and their bond is getting stronger. We get to see just how much they care for and want to protect her. Alek's growth as a character was amazing to see. This is one of my all time favorite PNR series and I am dying for more.

I feel like we have barely scratched the surface still and I am so looking forward to what comes next!!

I cannot wait for the next book
