Two Alpha shifters join together to lead their pack and build a family.

Commitment, loyalty, and strength aren’t enough to make Wesley Stone’s birth pack accept an Alpha with a physical imperfection, even if it’s a meaningless mark. Putting the safety of his pack above his own wellbeing, Wesley trades himself for another Alpha and agrees to mate with a stranger in a mysterious, insular pack.

Alphas from Jobe Root’s family have led the Red River pack from the first day shifters walked the earth. Now the time has come for Jobe to fulfill his destiny, but to do that, he needs his mate by his side. Spiritual, easygoing Jobe reveres Mother Nature and trusts in fate, yet he can’t help being nervous about how his mate will react to his new life in Red River, his new life with Jobe.

Two Alphas with contrasting personalities, different upbringings, and divergent beliefs come together for the good of their packs. But to stay together, Wesley and Jobe must see beyond the surface and embrace every facet of themselves and their union.

Wow! This felt like a completely new twist on the wolf shifter stories of omegas, alphas etc. Loved these characters and watching them learn each other.

I'm a huge Cardeno C. fan and of course I love Shifter books so I couldn't wait to read the second book in the Pack series. While I can't say I absolutely loved it I definitely enjoyed the story of Wesley and Jobe. I am anxious for the next book in the series.

***Audiobook Review 8/6/2016****

Alpha wolf Wesley Stone has trained his whole life to be the next
Alpha of the Purple Sky Pack. Born with a scar on his abdomen that no
one can identify, he is alienated from the rest of the pack. When the
time comes for him to step up and his Uncle, the current Alpha, to
step down, Wes is shocked when his uncle says he’s found another Alpha
to lead them instead. His pack will never accept him, sohis uncle has
agreed on a trade with the Red River pack. An Alpha wolf from their
pack will be sent to Purple Sky and in exchange Wes will go to Red
River and mate with their Alpha’s son and become Alpha there.
Realizing he has no choice, that he has to put the good of the pack
first, Wesley agrees.

The Red River pack is different than most packs out there. Isolated,
self sufficient, and in tune with nature, they are extremely
prosperous but a bit of a mystery to other packs and especially
Wesley. If there was ever a place where Wesley is destined to fit in,
it is in Red River. Wesley will discover many things in his new home,
love, acceptance but most importantly he’ll discover his true self.

Jobe Root has waited his whole life for his True Mate since the Red
River pack has always been led by two mated Alphas. Having Wesley by
his side to help lead the pack is a dream come true, it’s not only
what he wants but what Mother Nature intended as well. He’ll have to
be patient and understanding, as Wesley is new to their customs and
beliefs. If Jobe can prove to Wesley that he belongs in Red River with
him, their pack will greatly benefit from it.

I'm a huge Cardeno C. fan and I love Shifter books, so I couldn't wait
to read the second book in the Pack series. While I can't say I
absolutely loved it, I definitely enjoyed the story of Wesley and
Jobe. I liked how unique the Red River pack was from a lot of other
shifter books out there. Not to mention that this is a very different
take on M-preg.

What I Loved: I truly loved both Wesley and Jobe. While Wesley could
be very stubborn at times, he was so devoted to taking care of his
pack. He was very focused on what it truly meant to be an Alpha and
the fact that his pack would actually turn their backs on him because
of an abnormality was irritating. They would rather have an unknown
Alpha come in and take over their pack as opposed to allowing someone
who had grown up in the pack, someone who loved his pack, take over.

I loved Jobe, talk about a man with a good heart. He loved his pack,
he loved his mate and it shows in everything he does. He and Wesley
are great together.

What I liked: I thought the story itself was good. The idea of an
Alpha that is shunned by his pack because of a scar on his abdomen and
then forced to trade himself to another pack for a Alpha that his pack
will accept sight unseen is definitely intriguing. I also enjoyed the
slow burn aspect. Wesley and Jobe don’t just jump into bed together,
there is plenty of buildup. Cardeno C. is an excellent author and I
haven't yet found a book that I didn’t like.

What I Didn’t Like: While I do not mind M-preg and I didn’t
necessarily mind it in this story, I was not a fan of the actual way
the pregnancy occurs or the method of delivery. It was a little out
there for my tastes. I also found the misunderstandings between Jobe
and Wesley extremely exasperating. I continually rolled my eyes at
the lack of communication as well as the lack of education for Wesley.
It was obvious Wesley was in the dark about many things, especially
the important issues and Jobe should have picked up on it earlier on.

I also would have loved for the book to be a bit longer. The ending
was rushed and I really wanted more. I definitely didn’t get enough
of Wesley and Jobe and would love to see more of them.

When it comes down to it, though, I truly enjoyed Red River Pack and
would definitely recommend it!

4.5 Stars!

Narrator: Nick J. Russo - Definitely one of the better narrators I’ve
come across. He has a very smooth voice that works well with the
story and kept me interested. I was not a fan of his voice in the
beginning of the book because I felt his portrayal of one of the
characters was a bit over the top, howeve,r other than that I had no
complaints.

This was a good story. It took me a little while to understand the world but I got it. And yes I’m gonna wish it was longer, only because their was so much potential to explore other avenues in this book. It could have been even better. Now this didn’t take away from the book. But I’m just saying how grand and deep the story could’ve gone. The writing was good the smexy was hawt and the side characters were kind surface. I would’ve loved to see him go back and confront his uncle I would’ve loved to see more of them becoming true Alphis and stepping into that role, more of other peoples observations of them. And truly them having some kind of conflict where it put their roles as alphas to the test. Like I said could have been so much more.

This is the second in the Pack Collection, I read both books today so they aren't very long. I enjoyed the story as it was going along and then all of a sudden, it was over!

I have read numerous books by this author, The Mates is one of my all time favourite series but for me unfortunately this falls well short of that series. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed it, but it wasn't long enough for me.
