Alpha and Omega is a short story by Patricia Briggs, it's the first story in her "Alpha & Omega" series about wolf shifters. This story is chronologically book number 0.5 in the "Alpha & Omega" series.
I really wanted to like this story, I have an issue with the harsh treatment Ana was forced to go through before the events of this book. Ana and Charles are very cute together. I'll suspend my disbelief and accept that they fell for each other very quickly because
I also wanted to pay attention and make sure that the author wasn't being insensitive in any way while writing an Indigenous man character (Charles).
There is no spice in this novella. The two main characters talk about sex but there's no spice anywhere to be found, heads up.
Overall I enjoyed this novella, but I knocked a few stars off because
2 stars out of 5

And just like that, I am obsessed. I've been cooling my jets reading a novella compilation in the Mercy Thompson world and while I'd been planning to move onto this off-shoot series later, I couldn't resist reading this. Result...I loved it, immediately.
Anna was such an interesting character, who'd been through so much. The omega concept was excellent and I just loved what happened on hers and Charles' meeting.
This novella is a really complete story, rich and deep but promising so much more for the series starter, Cry Wolf. Guess what I'm reading next?
