Cry Wolf

Big Bad Wolf, Book 5

By: Charlie Adhara

Narrated by: Erik Bloomquist

Agent Cooper Dayton never thought anything could be harder than solving murders. Until he had to plan a wedding.

After taking down an old adversary, Agent Cooper Dayton of the Bureau of Special Investigations has earned a break. Not that planning a wedding to his sexy shifter partner, Oliver Park, is necessarily stress-free, but it's better than worrying about the ominous warning, delivered months ago, that Cooper's life is in danger.

When he's dragged to an event by his family, Cooper braces for an awkward evening but instead finds himself in the middle of an ugly feud between Park's ex and a rebel pack leader. What was supposed to be a quick outing turns into a full-blown murder investigation after the pack leader ends up dead, Park's ex goes missing, and Cooper and Park are sent a series of disturbing wedding gifts that are somehow connected to it all.

The list of potential suspects is long, and with the bodies piling up, Cooper must turn to the one person he trusts the least: the villain he's already put behind bars once and who has nothing to lose by lying and everything to gain if Cooper is out of the picture - for good.

Contains mature themes.

Excellent narration

I loved the storyline, the narration was superb, I hated the story to end and I hope Adhara decides to continue because there's much more to explore. Reader be warned, there are moments so touching, like me, you will cry. It's a mystery and a powerful love story. ❤️

Can’t wait for the next

I truly love reading and listening to the audio of this series; Erik has done a phenomenal job with his narrations he seems to be just enthralled with the stories, that to me when I hear him I can clearly picture these characters in my head. Charlie I thank you for continuing with the wolf series they have become one of my all time favorites and can’t wait to see where Oliver and Cooper end up next. Will he take up the mantel and be the moon or remain a neutral hero within the trust I just can’t wait to find out.

I love this series so much!!!

I need to re read the whole series now. Park and Cooper are so freakin adorable.

LOVED THIS SERIES

So glad I listened to this series. Loved the humor and the characters! Can’t wait to read more!

Still going strong!

There comes a book in so many series where you realize the content has become stale. The characters have stopped developing, and the plot twists no longer surprise you. This is NOT that book!

Cooper and Oliver continue to grow as people, and I really appreciate the way Adhara doesn't manufacture drama just to create conflict. As they grow and change, new challenges arise, but each one is believable, and is based on the initial character outlines and backstories we were introduced to in the first few books. I was fully expecting the Freedman plot to be wrapped up with this installment, and while it sort of is, we discover that there is more going on behind the scenes than the characters first new, setting up yet another installment in the next book! Yay!

To be honest, in general I am way, way over and done with werewolf books, as so many stories involving them are trite and formulaic. This series unfolds a more and more complex world with each new chapter, and as much as I have been eagerly looking forward to this novel, I am now eagerly awaiting the next one!

If you haven't been reading this series from the beginning, "Wolf At the Door", definitely start there. These books are not stand-alones. Seriously, go start from the beginning! These stories have humor, thoughtful character development, good world building, and just enough mystery/thriller spice to make them page-turners.

if you've been reading from the beginning, definitely spend the credit for this one! There are, unfortunately, a few editing errors, but while they are a little crazy-making, the content of the story is so absorbing that they won't distract from your reading pleasure.
