This is book three in the Rougaroux Social Club. This book focuses on Bobby who is the older, retired alpha of the pack. We have gotten to know him from both of the first two books. Bobby was married to a woman for many years as this is what his wolf wanted. The man always knew he was attracted to men. (This is a really unqiue aspect to this series. The man and his wolf may not have the same sexual orientation leading to all kinds of problems). Bobby sneaks away to gay bars sometimes and this one weekend he meets Mark who is a professor at a local college. The men have what is supposed to be a no strings weekend but they both leave with stronger feelings than they would like. It gets more complicated because Mark's area of research is on wolves and proving that wolves do live in the bayou. I think this was my favorite book in this series. The characters are a little older and more mature. They have an interesting story going through the book and their relationship took time to develop. These two were great together and the sex scenes were really steamy. We see all the other guys from the previous books as well as some of the side characters like alpha's kooky mom. She causing trouble again in ways only she can. This was a really enjoyable and super steamy read. If you're a fan of the series it's a must read. While these books are probably better if you've read the prior ones it is not a must. This can be read as a stand alone. I really hate to give a 1-star to Lynn Lorenz, because so far her books have all been pretty decent in the comfy 2-star zone. This one though... For almost 60% of the book the MCs weren't together. For the 40% that they WERE together, they were having sex, sex, and more sex. The first 20% was all sex before any attempt of a story even appeared, and then they were separated for most of the book.This makes it so that there's zero development to their relationship. Not only are we supposed to take it for granted that they are in love, we're not even treated to scenes of them BEING in love. They just are. So what do you read about instead?- Bobby running a festival- Jesus-crazy pilgrims- Mark's research- Mark's dead dad- Mark's dean- Scott fending off Jesus-crazy pilgrims- Scott's crazy mom encouraging Jesus-crazy pilgrim- Bobby trying to talk his church into selling beer for profitIf in nowhere in that do you see 'Mark and Bobby sitting in a tree', it's because they never were.
