Quote to Sip
Tiny Navajo Reads says of The Enforcer Enigma:
Tags: Book Rec List“That is actually one of the best parts of this book and this series, is how much Alec [the Alpha] loves his pack and just how much his pack loves him back for giving them a safe place to be themselves. This is the beauty of found family stories, and G.L. Carriger is excellent at writing these stories!”
