Review: Becoming Alpha

Becoming Alpha by Aileen Erin
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Synopsis:

One stupid party. One stupid boy. One stupid kiss. And my life was virtually over.

Tessa McCaide has a unique talent for getting into trouble. Then again, it isn’t easy for a girl with visions to ignore what she sees. Luckily Tessa and her family are leaving California and moving halfway across the country, giving her the perfect opportunity to leave her reputation as “Freaky Tessa” behind. 

But Tessa doesn’t realize that kissing the wrong guy in her new Texas town could land her in far more trouble than she ever imagined. Like being forced to attend St. Ailbe’s Academy, a secret boarding school for werewolves. 

Even if the wrong guy did accidentally turn her into one of “them” and doom her to attending the weirdest high school ever, Tessa can’t help her growing attraction to the mysterious Dastien Laurent.

When vampires attack St. Alibe’s and her visions pinpoint an enemy in their midst, Tessa realizes that boy drama and her newfound canine tendencies might just be the least of her problems.

My Thoughts:

After I read the synopsis of this book, I couldn't wait to read it. I wasn't disappointed. I was pulled immediately into the story. I loved the characters and I only put the book down because my body said it had to sleep (bah! who needs that? LOL). I was pulled back into it once I resumed reading. I loved the werewolves. The reader doesn't really get much insight into the vampires but the witches did make a brief appearance. I hope the witches make a bigger appearance next time. With the MC in common, they could work together. Overall, I really enjoyed this book. It was a great intro into the series and I can't wait to read book 2.
