Shattered Alpha by Erin R. FlynnMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Slowing Down and Taking Stock
In this series there are a lots of times that Sera is overwhelmed and worked to exhaustion, she goes through traumatic events and people she loves let her down. Through it all she keeps on going, until one day, the final straw breaks and she needs to stop. Just get off the merry go round and deal with everything.
There is a build up to this breaking point and though Sera has been through things that seem worse sometimes its a cumulative thing that causes the snap. One of the things I like abut this series is that it acknowledges the effect trauma can have and who it effects each person differently, sometimes the same person differently at different times.
I love that Sera is a this badass alpha/FBI agent who can fight crime and the bad guys of the paranormal world, but still gets hurt by a careless word or phrase from a boyfriend. I like that can compartmentalise like nobody’s business but we see the aftermath of that shoving aside of the bad stuff. I also like that Sera has strong female friends and adopted family and support her and help her work through her problems and protect her to the best of their ability.
This is slower on the plot front than previous books, but emotionally it is still satisfying.
