I've heard stories about the Alphas. Violent soldiers, bred to kill both humans and mutations, whose sole purpose was to balance our survival against the infected.

Until they turned on their masters.

Held as subjects of the Calico research facility, they were forced to endure the gruesome experiments that transformed them into callous savages with hearts as impenetrable as their defenses. More terrifying than the monsters that decimated our world with disease and famine.

In the aftermath of Calico's collapse, many of the Alphas fled, only to be hunted by our own Legion army. And in their absence, the balance has shifted.

I thought they no longer existed.
Until I met him, the god of monsters.
Now I don't believe in the stories anymore.

To fall in love with the unyielding heart of an Alpha is said to be impossible.

But to fall in love with a god would be a tragedy.

If you haven't started this series yet... WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR???

This was the story of Titus and Thalia. I said that the first three books of this series were scary. Well, this book... it was horrific! I don't even know where the author came up with all the things that these characters had to go through, but the horror show that was Titus and Thalia's life... it was graphic, obscene, and terrifying. My heart broke for these people and I couldn't believe what the dregs of society were willing to do to entertain themselves.

The author did an incredible job of showing glimpses of beauty during all of the pain. And there was a lot of pain! But what grew between Titus and Thalia was inspiring. To live through the tortures they endured, to all but lose hope of anything, to get to where they were in the end... strong, battle-scarred, and appreciative of all they had...they were beautiful.

I don't know what tickled the author's mind to create this series, but whatever it was, I'm grateful to it. It allowed her to create a world of ugly wonder that delved into the depths of what makes us human, what divides us in the worst of times, and what truly makes a hero. The Juniper Unraveling series is one I will always be happy to recommend!
