From the blurb:
Tobias Greene is dead. Or, at least, he was dead, before his ex-boyfriend woke him with news of his missing sister.
I wasn’t supposed to be here. Death should have been the end for me. A quiet erasure of all the terrible things I’d done in the almost thirty years of my first life. But then I was awake, and those memories came flooding back in, destroying the peace that had saved me in the crushing dark. To make matters worse, Bastien, the man I loved—and lost—was the one who tore me from Death’s icy grip. I couldn’t remember how things ended between us, but judging by the contempt in his eyes, I would guess it wasn’t pleasant.
Lynette was missing. My twin—my better half—vanished the night before she was to succeed our mother as Head of the Magi Council. I was the last one to be seen with her. Then I was murdered. Now, I had to piece together those moments leading up to my death if we were to have any chance of saving Lynette.
I wanted to forget the man I was in my first life. But with every step closer to Lynette, my past stalked ever closer. The hearts I’d broken. The lives I’d ruined. The men I’d left behind.
I thought I knew who I was, but I was wrong.
DEAD WRONG.
DEAD WRONG is a plot-driven, magical realism, harem-style M/M romance with plenty of action, lots of magical men, and just the right amount of spice.
Angel's review:
I'll start this off by saying Alexander is a new to me author and while this is his first debut into the adult M/M fiction world, he has written YA previously, which I have not read,(Yet.) After reading this incredibly intriguing book though, I'm most likely going to be looking into more of Alexander's work.
When I first read the blurb for Dead Wrong, I was intrigued yet concerned, mainly because when someone tries to put too many things or characters into the same book, often times the story gets muddled. I can happily say that didn't happen here! While there is A LOT that happens throughout this book, it all eventually made sense and felt natural to the events taking place during the course of the story.
I was not expecting the intricacy with the level of depth each character ended up having, not one character was one dimensional or felt lesser than the others. Each one felt whole and there was so much to learn about each of these characters, this felt much more than just two MC's, I could argue that the men who are technically side characters, are main characters in their own right as well.
I thought each character was fantastic and with the information that slowly got revealed about them as Tobi remembered his past added an extra layer of depth to all of them, which I found to be really interesting. This book is equal parts mystery, action, romance, and suspense all wrapped up together. I enjoyed reading all of the twists and turns that came about as the story progressed and the pacing of the story itself was so smooth!
While there IS some romance within the pages of this book, it is definitely more subtle. I can't say too much without spoiling the plot, but let me just say I feel as though there is more than one love interest...
I really enjoyed reading this book, I was completely immersed into this world right alongside Tobias, Bastien, Azrael and Cirian. The plot twist the Lynette was immensely shocking and I love when an author can be sneaky about what's going to happen, I did not see that coming at all. Very well done to you Alexander! All in all, a terrific way to start a brand new series and an amazing book to debut with. I'm very curious to see what's in store for these characters as they continue their battle against a certain someone... And I'm also wondering if eventually all of the characters will have a romance together? Or if they'll be individual couples? I'm very curious about that! (Also my favorite character is Azrael, he's so sweet yet fierce!)
