What makes for a kind alpha, and are we starting to see more of them in recent paranormal/fantasy fiction? Okay, sure, there's still some manipulation at play here, but it's all for the greater good and growth of our heroine's arc... so that's probably okay, right? In this episode, Lisa and Jess look at Commander Rip from The Plated Prisoner series by Raven Kennedy and Rhysand from A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas.
