Alpha Deceived

Waking the Dragons Series, Book 3

By: Piper Scott, Susi Hawke

Narrated by: Colin Darcy

After thousands of years, they’re back…

Proud dragon warrior and healer Sana has a secret…one that may forever turn his friends against him, and one that he’ll do anything to keep. He’s worked too hard to keep who he truly is from the world, and he refuses to let the charade drop, even after waking up thousands of years in the future. But when Peter walks into his life and wakes his heartsong, he knows it’s a secret he won’t be able to hide much longer. With his muscular body and incredible strength, Sana is decidedly alpha in appearance, but Peter is no omega, and that means…

Human lie detector and reformed dragon hunter Peter will stop at nothing to figure out why there’s music in his heart whenever Sana is around…and why that music makes him feel like he’s known Sana his whole life. Peter’s been with other alphas, but the way Sana makes him feel is unlike anything he’s experienced before. But as his attraction to Sana builds at breakneck speeds, so too does the danger they face. The Master Guardian is still on the loose, and the hunters are still under his control…and as a former hunter, Peter may be the key to taking them down.

Can fated mates still so new in their relationship survive the perils of the Hunters’ Guild and rise victorious? Buckle up and let our dragons take you on a ride you’ll never forget…straight into the Alpine Compound, and the dangers therein.

Alpha Deceived is the third book in the Waking the Dragons series and features men as hot as dragonfire, a life-changing secret, a prehistoric version of a certain laundry pod challenge, and a HEA just as legendary as the dragons in it. This audiobook contains mpreg and is 18+ only… did you really expect anything less from Susi Hawke and Piper Scott?

Sana, Peter & Surprises

Great book in this wonderful series. Really enjoyed the storyline, did not expect what was revealed about Sana and the plot twist that was revealed in this installment. Peter is the perfect match for Sana and I love watching them grow closer. With all the twists in this one, I really can't wait for the next one to come out in audio! This one is full of action and lots of romance too. The narrator was excellent with all of the character voices and with the story itself. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Terrific!

This is a great story, I was quickly drawn in to the story and didn’t want to stop listening. The narrator does a great job of bringing the characters to life. I do recommend starting this series from the beginning for the most enjoyment. It’s a great series and worth it.

Alpha Deceived

Well, this book had all kinds of twists to it I did not see coming…

I have to say that book two is still my favorite and might just stay that way, but I really did like this addition to the series too. This whole series has been fantastic so far, made even better by the Audio narration we get from Colin Darcy. He just puts so much obvious effort into giving us a performance and not just a basic narration for each of these books its really astounding. We get such a wide range of voices from him each and every time I am seriously impressed by each audiobook I’ve heard from him so far.

Sana is one of the “Alpha Dragon warriors” who finally meets his Heartsong in Peter (Sam’s brother we meet in book 2) Sana does everything he can to keep from getting close to Peter. He tries to keep from forming a bond and pushes his mate away for a lot of this book. My heart really hurt right along with Peter, feeling like he wasn’t good enough for Sana to be with. I just didn’t understand where Sana was coming from and it made me kind of dislike him. I am #TeamPeter all the way. Then getting into the twists in this book, the “villain”… I mean we all kind of saw that coming, finding out who he is. But the things he did to these two, Peter and Sana and the other omega that they find who’s been held hostage are really horrible things. I don’t understand how he could do those things and think the way he does when he himself was a dragon, and to have duped them all this whole time, for dozens of years just sounds crazy to me. I’m glad that in the end Sana realized that he could be open and honest with his friends about who he really is inside without any ramifications and blowback on him, Peter and their baby. This book had a ton of action packed into it, we are really getting to the heart of the overall storyline with this one and learning a lot more about the Hunters Guild. This book was great. I really enjoy everything about this series.

Excellent series!!!

I absolutely love this series. The dragons are awesome and the way this series is written is wonderful. The heartsong between the dragons is definitely a new way to describe a fated mate and I felt that it was well done. Sana and Peter's story was a little different from the other ones in this series. The thoughts that Sana battles with about his status can be so easily compared to how some men in modern times feel about being gay, femme, or just different from what they are expected to be, which I guess could go for just about anyone, not just men. I like that the authors gave this angle a part in the series. It was like when you see an important lesson being taught in a child's story, it's there but it's just enough under the surface. Peter's absolute support of Sana and the way he is patient with him until he is ready to deal with things in his own way is awesome. Sometimes in a series you feel like you are reading the same story over and over but with a different set of MCs but this series didn't make me feel like that because the underlying story was carried from book to book. I hope these two authors co-write again because they do very well with their story telling.

Colin Darcy's narration is spot on, the voices are all very distinct throughout the series. In each book I knew exactly who was talking at all times because he carried the voices throughout the entire thing.

I loved it

I love it I really hope the next one will come out soon and be as good as the other 2 I’m really interested in it I love this series keep it up

Best one yet!

Alpha Deceived is book 3 in the Waking the Dragons series and it needs to be read in order as it follows a continuing storyline. Trust me, you don't want to miss a second of this fantastic series.

So, I had an idea of who the evil guy was, but I had no clue of the extent of his betrayal. I can only hope he'll get what's coming to him in the last installment because the guy deserves everything these two authors can come up with.

I adored Peter, he was easygoing and laidback, taking most of what was happening to him in stride, but at the same time, he was supportive and protective of Sana. I liked Sana a lot, but he frustrated me a bit, with his fear of letting his fellow dragon warriors know what he really was and jumping into doing things his way, putting Peter and himself in harm's way. Of course, there's the fact that if he hadn't he wouldn't have learned of the bad guy's deception, so there's that.

This series just keeps getting better and better with each passing book, the authors have done an outstanding job with world-building and the heart song's theme. I think Alpha Deceived is my favorite so far, not only because of the main couple, but because of how much the plot moved along with the reveal of the big bad. I'm eager to find out how it'll play out in the last book.

Colin Darcy did a great job narrating the book, he gave each character (main and secondary) a distinctive voice that made them easily recognizable and the inflections to his tone made for a fantastic experience listening to this audiobook. I said before that this was my favorite of the three I've listened to so far in this series and that is, at least in part, due to Mr. Darcy's voice.

Great

Loved this book the narrator is fantastic. can't wait to read the next book. wish there were more.

so very fiercely written

the chapter in the series was amazing we finally find out who the bad guys are and love does concur all.

Absolutely amazing

I love the narrator, his voice change for the different characters was amazing and flawless. The story was also fantastic and sweet. a definite must read.

A powerful pair

I love Sana and Peter they are such a great pair. Sana is wise and sweet and also so strong. Everything that makes him him is nothing short of amazing. Peter is trying to make sense of how drastically things have changed for him in his life and is still trying to figure out all of the details. I love how they work together to find out what is targeting their friends and family and how they can best defend them. I think that the narrator did a great job with them all and making the story pop.
