An anthology containing the novella Alphas: Origins
Official blurb:
“When a young woman is taken captive by a dangerous male, she is pulled against her will into a world hidden from humanity’s view, where those with superhuman powers fight a bloody civil war. Now she must make a choice: to submit and become a pawn or to take hold of her own destiny.”
Unofficial blurb:
Alphas: Origins introduces readers to a new world of people with shocking powers who live on the fringe of our society. It’s a place where telepaths wage vicious wars, where withers spread their wings of fire, and men wrench bones out of the bodies of their opponents with a single thought. It’s a place of darkness, where an ordinary woman fights for her survival against overwhelming odds.

I looooooooooooooooved “Alphas”. It was my favorite story in this anthology. I hope there will be more stories from this group in our future???!!! Thanks so much for all the great entertainment. I love the Kate Daniels and the Edge Series too. – Maybe I should just say that I love all your work and “Alphas” is a great addition.
I love the Alphas story and am hoping that there will be more to come. I really like the idea and the characters. I do have to say the the entire anthology is really amazing and well worth the read.
Just another follow-up to the e-mail sent earlier. I enjoyed reading this. Please continue this story. I really would like to know what happens between Karina & Lucas.
I absolutely love Alphas: Origins. I am totally hooked on Kate and the Edge both, but Alphas blew me out of the water. I can’t keep it out of my head. I really hope there are going to be full books in that series. I’m sure it is difficult to write two series at once as it is, but I really hope to see more from the Alphas world.
The Alphas story knocked me on my butt. It was very very dark, but wow, what a story. Fantastic. I sincerely hope that I get to read another some day from this series. Fabulous writing as usual.
Loved this story!! Please, please, please write more. I am fascinated by Lucas and Karina…
I loved the story as well and I am waiting for news regarding a follow up … please tell me there will be something soon
I now read all of your books and loved all of them – my latest read was the Kinsman-books and they were fantastic – so I am out of reading material till July till Andreas Story comes out. Can’t wait!!!!
Please write more in the Alpha world…I loved this story and everything you have written…
Definitely a world that needs more of it’s stories told. This was the best of what I love to read; science fiction and urban fantasy with some hot relationship potential thrown in. Please come back to this!!
this alphas thing associated at all with that new tv series of the same name? seems similiar premise but i have yet to read the book yet and am waiting on the series to start next week
Love this story!! The idea of this whole world of the Alphas is so fascinating ….. Want more!!!!
Vorrei sapere se questo libro giungerà mai in Italia?
Can I have some more please? Alphas rocks! Love all your stuff and can’t get enough. Love the fast pace and can hardly put your books down. Thanks for the not-in-your-face romance. I really appreciate rooting for instead of retching. Your characters and worlds are among my favorites. Alphas is begging for more stories, or is that me? Better yet, Alphas deserves more stories. Thanks so much.
Just finished reading Alphas, came onto your site for more &… I can’t believe it. There isn’t anymore? I’m so disappointed.
Loved Alphas! I can’t stop thinking that this would make a great series.
Love all your books. The books have helped me dealing with my lost and
loniness. Can’t wait for your Magic Dream and Gunmetal Magic. Thank you both for your books. Mary
Just ordered Angels of Darkness in a rush of procrastinative energy. Read alphas: origins in the laudromat and had to finish before I could go home. Reread ending. Wanted to swoon. You guys to the very un-mushy, undramatic, sane and yet palpable romance very well. My heart is aching of happiness. (I, obviously, can only write in extrem drama) Now I am wide awake and unfit to go to bed :-\ BUT! Proof that anything you write is gold covered with a lot of diamond to enhance its value. Can’t wait for next installment!!!!
Lovedlovedloved it. Yes, it was gritty and kind of darker than usual, with the rather casual mention of icky subjects, but it felt very real. I love the unusual idea (not exactly fantasy!!! :3) Also, loved the very adult (in the sense of mental maturity) protagonist and somehow thought that Lucas was beyond cute. Even when horny. And now I feel screwed up… xD
I went through the blog looking for Alpha hints and saw that you might not continue it, which is a pity for me. (I felt like Bad Luck Brian: Finds awesome read – it’s a novella that won’t be continued)
Anyway, digressing here… Spent the day daydreaming about it. Like what other awesome powers might be possible. Like whether poor Daniel is going to find someone. Like how awesomely cute Henry is in his attachment to the food Karina makes. (It made me want to cook) and I could go on and on and on…. But I should be working.
Sooooo… bottom line: I hate it that people might not have liked the novella, but I loved that you guys came up with it and I would cry small tears of happiness if you would consider creating more of it. Ebook, novella, full-length… aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanything!!!!
