He has sex with Claire so that she won’t be so afraid of it because of what happened to her in Reborn. But, now we know! Shepard saved Claire and raged at the doctor who was there because Claire was so medicated and the doctor is worried about what will happen to her. The way that Reborn was left was with an open ending, so no one was entirely sure what the end was. She leaves her room, walks out into the snow, and jumps off the bridge into Shepard’s waiting arms. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, or more properly, Tholos, Claire hears and feels Shepard calling to her. When she gets out, she gets grounded and has nothing to do, so she just kind of wanders around the dome. Inside the dome, she is put into quarantine to make sure that she isn’t sick, and spends several days locked in a room all by herself. She manages to drag herself up the side of the dome and back inside. The control people want to cut her out of the rigging, but it doesn’t happen. She ends up hanging from the rigging and hurts her shoulder. She is out working on the dome when a rogue gust of wind knocks her off the dome. She presents as a Beta and works on the dome, maintaining it, on Bernard Dome. It’s free on Amazon, so if you want to whet your appetite for the rest of the book, go check it out. Go past this point, you may regret it.Īddison made the first bit of the book available in a prelude called Absolute Power. If you want to stay completely unspoiled, this is the place for you to stop.

I will put anything big after a pretty picture, just for added protection. I will do everything I can to keep them to a minimum, but they are going to happen. I can’t wait for the next one, which will be sometime next year since Addison is finishing up a personal exapansion project. I had all the feelz, and I think the book created more feelz just so that I could have them. And then I was sad because I had finished it and had already had that brand new book feeling happen and the adrenaline let down from looking forward to it and reading it. I may have called Addison evil and sadistic when I was finished reading it. Addison really hit it out of the ball park.

I think the series is one of the best things I’ve read, indie author, romance author, mainstream author, whoever, one of the best, hands down.

I have read it over and over and over, and can discuss it for hours. Seriously though, I adore the entire Alpha’s Claim series so hard. If you loved the Alpha’s Claim series, you need to read this book, the first one in the Alpha’s Control series. Because Addison Cain and her PA, Courtney McDaniel, love me, or at least like me somewhat, and I have my awesome blog, I was able to get my hands on an ARC of Stolen really early! And now, I get to share bits and pieces of it with you! Stolen is currently available for pre-order and comes out on the 26th.
