Cooper and Oliver go undercover to a couples therapy retreat/resort to investigate a missing former alpha wolf. Even surrounded by suspects and with the danger increasing, Cooper is growing increasingly worried about the power dynamics in his and Park's relationship. What better place to sort that out (while solving crime) than at a counseling retreat? 

I'm still very much loving Cooper and Park! (Cooper always calls him Park, not Oliver, so I just call him Park). Even being together for a while now - eight months? - they are still coming into themselves and working on being their best for each other. Cooper is worried about their dynamics with the alpha-ness, not for himself but for Park. Park never has had someone care about him in this way, and as grumpy as he is Cooper cares immensely for Park. They are always taking the other into consideration. Even though they still make mistakes, their communication and honesty has grown exponentially since their early days. I love this journey for them. 

While not my favorite of the books, I still liked it. I just wasn't as invested in the mystery/crime plot as the other books because it seemed to be so separated from their story arcs. The main plot was definitely more along the lines of Cooper and Park figuring out their relationship dynamics - coming to terms with some more of their buried feelings while also taking the next steps in their relationship. I love them as a couple and they've grown so much from book one together and separately. This was the only book (so far) where I might've shed a tear. I don't want the series to end, but there's only one more to go!
