Alpha Underground Trilogy (Unabridged‪)‬

Fen and Hunter Green ( such great names) so good!

We meet Fen in the WOLF RAMPANT TRILOGY. Then we get more of Fen's story and learn more about her psyche and motivations in TOUGH AS NAILS (a short story in the THIRTEENTH WOLF anthology).
Hunter's story begins in his book, DARK WOLF ADRIFT. (Both of these stories are great!) Some books I read, and some I listened to, and I enjoyed things about both mediums. I read HALF WOLF, the first book in this series, a couple of months ago, but didn't feel that I knew enough about the characters' back story to understand their motivations as well as I might.. But I really liked them and wanted to get to know them better. So I immersed myself in the above-mentioned books before listening to the AlPHA UNDERGROUND TRILOGY, which I received as an Audible review copy. I would highly recommend starting at the beginning with BLOODLING WOLF (Wolfie's wonderful story) and continuing through the above list, in preparation for this story.
If you are a fan of Ilona Andrews and Patricia Briggs you will understand that to get the most out of a series it is so much more enjoyable to get to know Aimee's characters from the beginning than to start in the middle. Then you will be able to appreciate that Aimee Easterling deserves a place right beside I.A. And P.B.
To introduce you to Fen, you should know that she has some pretty big abandonment issues to deal with. Her Mother is a human who couldn't deal with a werewolf pack. So because Fen lost both of her parents at the age of 9, she treats her wolf as a liability. She has had to be very strong during periods of time on her own, just to survive, and she's barely an adult. So she has a lot to work through during this series to learn to trust herself, her wolf, and Hunter.

Hunter sees Fen's potential and is willing to help her build her confidence and is very patient with her because, by the beginning of this book, he knows she is his true mate. Hunter has left the Navy, where he was a demolitions expert, and is looking for his purpose in life where he can do some good and make a difference. He will have to rethink some of his decisions on this journey in order to grow into the person he wants to be. Hunter also had a brutal childhood, because of being a bloodling wolf and has some abandonment issues of his own to work through.
As always, there is fast paced story telling with a cast of great characters, a lot of whom are experiencing children's and teen's growing pains. At times you'll have to remind yourself of their youth when watching their blunders and antics.
There is a lot of action and twists that you'll never see coming on this enjoyable ride. So rest up before you begin, because unless you are a lot more disciplined than me, you'll find yourself staying up way too late.
I hope this is not the end of the series because I would like to revisit them after they've settled firmly into their roles as adults. I would like to see what the bloodling pups are up to, and for Fen's mom to have an HEA as well as for Gray to have his own story.
Aimee is such a great story teller that she always leaves you satisfied while still wanting more.
