About this audiobook
Beth Ann Williamson is done with her on-again, off-again fiance, but no one believes it's really over. Beth Ann is determined to show Bluebonnet, Texas, that she can take care of herself. But when she gets stranded in the woods, she has to be saved by a handsome, if scowling, Marine.
Survivalist Colt Waggoner is not pleased when he's sent to rescue the pampered princess, and he's even more annoyed when Beth Ann isn't grateful for his help. He decides to teach the sexy blonde a lesson-a weekend alone in the wild.
But Beth Ann is not as spoiled as he thought. And when she propositions him for a one-night stand, he knows he should turn it down, because this alpha male might need more than one night to satisfy him . . .
Contains mature themes.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5*I gave this audiobook a B for the narration and C+ for the story at AudioGals.*Being a lover of alpha heroes, I took one look at this title, and knew I had to listen to it! Having previously listened to one of Jessica Clare’s prior titles, The Wrong Billionaire’s Bed, I also knew that I would enjoy Ms. Clare’s mix of contemporary romance with a bit of humor and steamy, passionate love scenes. The Care and Feeding of an Alpha Male, generally delivers on all these fronts, and even includes a little suspense and a few crucial plot twists, to add to its allure. But it also unnecessarily overdelivered in one of those aspects.Knowing that this was a small-town romance, I innocently expected a little heat. But what I got was so much more, that after a few scenes I found myself fast-forwarding through them (some of which were fifteen minutes or longer). These weren’t necessarily plain vanilla scenes either. It’s not anything I haven’t previously read or listened to before, but it was so unexpected, given this book’s description, and so gratuitous for this kind of story, that I felt it cheapened it for me. Without this issue, I would have given this story a B+.Beth Ann Williamson, the belle of Bluebonnet, Texas, is finally done with her “perfect” on-again, off-again fiancé, Allen. As the daughter of the small town’s mayor, she understands the value of discretion when it comes to her public life, so she doesn’t tell others about Allen’s philandering ways. Of course, this just means that the whole town believes that they are still together or will eventually reconcile.When she moves out of Allen’s house, she decides to be self-sufficient for the first time in her life, so Beth Ann opens up her own business – a salon. Things aren’t easy, but she’s learning to get by, even if everyone assumes that her attempt at playing the businesswoman will only be short-lived.Ex-marine and survivalist, Colt Waggoner, is the exact opposite of the type of person that anyone in Bluebonnet would associate with Beth Ann. Born on the wrong side of tracks, and having grown-up in a trailer, most of the town considers him to be “white trash”.Having gone to high school with Beth Ann, Colt has steered clear of her most of his adult life, assuming her to be a spoiled princess. One day that changes when during a storm, he gets an opportunity to teach her a lesson. What starts out as revenge, quickly leads to passion, and he neglects to tell her that they really aren’t stranded. One thing leads to another, and Colt and Beth Ann end up exploring a lot more than just the wild wilderness on their off-road weekend.Expecting nothing more than a one (or two) night stand, both are extremely surprised when they can’t stop thinking of each other, which leads to an attempt to date. But the small town of Bluebonnet is not going to stand idly by and let this great catastrophe take place, never mind that Allen has made it his mission to win Beth Ann back. Can Beth Ann and Colt beat the odds to find a HEA, especially when certain crucial truths are revealed?See the full review, including the part relating to the narration, at Audiogals at: www dot audiogals dot net/2014/09/the-care-and-feeding-of-an-alpha-male-by-jessica-clare/#.VA77i2NgFqg
