Description:
INTRODUCING SWAT: SPECIAL WOLF ALPHA TEAM
They’re tight
They’re on target
They’re as alpha as men can get.
The Dallas SWAT team is hiding one helluva secret . . . they’re a pack of wolf shifters.
The team of elite sharpshooters is ultra-secretive—and also the darlings of Dallas. This doesn’t sit well with investigative journalist Mackenzie Stone. They must be hiding something . . . and she’s determined to find out what.
Keeping Mac at a distance proves impossible for SWAT team commander Gage Dixon. She’s smart, sexy, and makes him feel alive for the first time in years. But she’s getting dangerously close to the truth—and perilously close to his heart…
Review:
Hungry Like the Wolf by Paige Tyler is the 1st book in her new SWAT series. SWAT stands for Special Wolf Alpha Team. Lucky for us, these men are most definitely Alphas, and very hot. Gage Dixon is the SWAT team leader and our hero, and the first of what promises to be a fun time with quite a few hot men, who will be getting their own stories told.
Mac is our heroine, and an investigative reporter, who is determined to find out the truth behind the Dallas SWAT team, who are so perfect. They are strong, bigger, and faster than normal cops, but no one knows that underneath it all, they are werewolves. Each was picked by Gage to become part of this SWAT team to help fight the bad guys.
After getting a tip that something is not right, Mac suspects perhaps they are using enhancement drugs. Mac sets out to find out, and comes face to face with Gage, during a daring rescue attempt. He moves her to their truck, as she was getting herself into danger too close to the scene. It doesn’t take long for both of them to feel the heat, which was not from the fire at the site.
Gage convinces his team to allow Mac to hang around for a few days at their compound, in order for her to learn what he wants her to know. The men are not happy about this, but they go along with their leader, as wolves, they can sense the attraction between Gage and Mac. Is Mac the ONE for Gage?
What follows is not only a romance that slowly begins to sizzle, as their chemistry is off the wall, but an exciting story that threatens those on the team and Mac. The focus of the story is a well connected villain, who blames Gage for the death of his bad son. Gage must try to be a step ahead to stop this villain; keeping his team and Mac safe; and try to control his growing feelings for Mac. When a situation gets out of hand, Mac will learn the truth about Gage & his team. What will she do? Write her story that would be a major scoop, but destroy Gage and his team in the process? You need to read this book to find out.
This was a fun, exciting and hot story by Paige Tyler. I look forward to reading more about these hot men of the SWAT team, as they all get their chance.

“We dropped Corporal Riggs off a few blocks out from the scene. He hoofed it
in over the rooftops while we were getting into position outside. He went in
and set up the remote cameras and microphones while everyone inside was
focused on us and the other police officers.”
Riggs and Taylor stared at their commander, clearly shocked by how open he’d
been about their tactics to a member of the media. Mac was stunned, too.
She’d been fishing when she’d asked the question. She hadn’t expected them
to actually answer her.
Dixon chuckled. “You don’t have to look so alarmed. It’s not like I shared
state secrets. Besides, Ms. Stone will be coming by the compound later today
to take a look around and see how we operate.”
Mac did a double take. “Seriously?”
His amber eyes met hers. “That’s what you wanted, isn’t it? An in-depth look
at a day in the life of a SWAT officer?”
She was more interested in finding out if they were hiding something, but
she didn’t tell him that.
“I figured if I didn’t make the offer, you’d only hang around outside the
compound for months until I agreed to let you in. Or until you tried to
sneak into the middle of the next hostage situation,” he said. “This way we
can do our job without worrying about you popping up out of nowhere, and you
get to do yours without risking your life.” She opened her mouth to thank
him, but he held up a finger. “There’s one condition, though.”
“Name it.”
“You agree not to detail any of our tactical procedures or techniques like
the one I just told you about. You print those and you’ll get my team
killed.” He lifted a brow. “Do we have an agreement?”
Mac nodded eagerly. “Yes.”
She’d agree to whatever he wanted if it got her in the compound-even if it
meant going back on her word later. Although, after today, she wasn’t sure
there was a story. She seriously doubted these guys were doing drugs,
regardless of what Marvin said. But that didn’t matter. No way was she
passing up an opportunity like this.
“I’ll see you at the compound this afternoon then,” Dixon said as he opened
the door for her. “Say three o’clock?”
She smiled up at him. “I’ll be there.”
Mac had to resist the urge to do a little happy dance as she hurried back to
the news van. She wasn’t sure how it had happened, but somehow she’d gotten
herself an engraved invitation to get up close and personal with the
country’s most elite tactical unit-the Dallas PD SWAT.
