I'm a big fan of Jeff Violette and this series was amazing from start to finish. Jeff's Acting was spot on. Anna and Jeff had amazing Chemistry. The storyline was great. Whoever directed this series deserves an award for bringing together an amazing cast. In fact I think this whole team deserves all the awards from acting to editing to cinematography.. The scene with Jeff standing outside the restaurant in the rain so romantic and the scene where Anna and Jeff are outside in the rain talking dynamic. This whole series was so good. I totally recommend it to people. I loved every second of it! Good Job Guys!
First and foremost can we have a standing ovation for Hunter Deng as this was the first vertical series he has directed and is, as I will say a few times, the best vertical series I have seen to date.
Returning to New York after leaving abruptly 7 years ago, Zoe Lopez (Anna DeRusso) is shocked when she immediately runs into her ex fiancé, Alex Blackwood (Jeff Violette) at an art gallery. Leaning on her friends, Lukas Anderson (Tate Doppler) and Elle (Carrie Terraccino), Zoe has been raising Alex and her son Casey (Aris James True). Having left without a word, due to Alex's father, Henry (Ashton Wolf), revealing to her that Alex is actually an Alpha Werewolf and that she does not belong in their world days after she had accepted Alex's proposal. Alex has spent the last 7 years searching for her, all while his father and mother, Beatrice (Maude Bonanni), have been trying to set up an arranged marriage with Sabrina Huntington (Jennylyn Caterina). So what happens when 7 years of distance has not dulled the love Zoe and Alex hold for each other? With Lukas vying for Zoe's heart and Sabrina vying for Alex's, can these two really make it work? Can they overcome the patriarchal domineering and demanding man that is Alex's father? And how will Alex feel when he learns the truth of Casey's identity?
This series has it all, and so much more. I cannot articulate accurately in one post just how fantastic this series is (that is why I broke this down into 3 posts for my instagram page!)
As a whole, this series hits every single mark, giving each character a multi-layered complex storyline that allows the viewer to understand just why each decision was made. The typical "villain" trait of being evil for the sake of being evil is thrown out the window. Enabling you to understand motivations behind actions and empathise with the antagonists.
The relationships established in this series also have a depth I have not seen in another vertical series before, with utilisation of flashbacks to give the viewer a full understanding of each relationship in the series. Of course, the main relationship in question is the one between Zoe and Alex, however, there is depth given to each and every grouping - with beautiful friendships, strained family dynamics, unrequited love, love that can only be described as written in the stars and of course parent/child love and protection.
The fact this is a werewolf series is almost a subplot to the entire storyline, which I truly appreciated - it was not all about alpha/beta/gamma/omega dynamics and brought the werewolf world into the human world. There was no need for growling or overuse of the titles given in a pack, but it was there and was given the perfect amount of screen time in this series.
I also have to call out 3 more things that were standouts for me in this series.
1. The way the arguments weren't based in anger but in fear and deep emotion 2. The transformation from wolf back to human form in the fight scene - I have never seen this done better in the vertical space 3. The storyline, it is unlike anything we have seen before, I cannot find a single fault in it.
Anna DeRusso as Zoe Lopez, Anna is a star in her own right, with a remarkable filmography thus far, however, as Zoe Lopez Anna managed to capture the very essence of the character, truly demonstrating just how spectacular of an actress she is. The tears welling up in her eyes as she speaks, the distant stares demonstrated in moments of reflection and sadness, the shake in her vocal-chords as she would become angry, hurt, scared, or sad. Every expression was perfectly timed, every line exquisitely delivered - Anna allowed the viewer to put themselves in her shoes and feel with her, that is a testament to her!
Jeff Violette as Alexander Blackwood, Jeff has come so far in such a short time, everyone needs to be reminded this man has a degree in construction management, gave up his comfortable life and stability to chase a dream and look at him now. This is Jeffs best performance, this is his best character. Every single aspect of this performance was delivered perfectly, the inflections in his voice, the furrow between his brow, the expressions on his face, the body language - I could go on. His portrayal of Alexander with outstanding, and I believe we have a new Alpha King in our presence. Jeff is going to go so far in his career and we are truly so lucky to be watching him flourish as an actor.
Tate Doppler as Lukas Anderson, firstly can someone please give Tate a lead role where he gets the girl! Tate is unbelievably good in this series, playing the caring best friend and stand-in father figure, he doesn't miss a beat, even though this was a supporting role, his performance left me wanting more of Lukas' character and to see where his life takes him! Fantastic work as always from Tate and as I said, someone please give him a lead role!
Jennylyn Caterina as Sabrina Huntington, OMG this girl, having to play an antagonist when you have the sweetest face and delivering a performance this good is truly remarkable! Jennylyn gave Sabrina dimension and allowed you to feel empathy and sorrow for, what is supposed to be the lead villain role, which is not easily achievable. Taking away from the script and focusing in solely on her performance, Jennylyn's performance was outstanding utilising her skills to really drive home the understanding that this is just a woman in love with her protector and saviour.
Other Special mentions in casting: Arie James True as Casey, Carrie Terraccino as Elle, Ben Whalen as Mason, Ashton Wolf as Henry, and Adam Chisnall as Mr Davis all gave stellar performances in their supporting roles no matter how big, the casting in this series was fantastic and every actor gave 110% making this series even better.
The use of lighting and weather to reflect the emotions of the characters was a stroke of genius in this series, with darkness and rain right at the beginning of the series when our 2 leads meet outside the bar (I will come back to this) right through to the final episode where you have what can only be described as golden hour lighting casting across the faces of the actors as the storyline resolves. Again we see scenes of Alexander emerging from the darkness into the light, almost as if a parallel to his realisation of Casey's true identity. And finally, although I could rant about this all day, the fight scene lighting, unequaled in the vertical space, with the mood set for a battle before anything even occurs - truly outstanding in every single episode of this series.
Quickly jumping back to the scene out the front of the bar, the two standing out the front facing away from each other in the pouring rain with a red and a black umbrella, I cannot put into words how this scene made me feel - the rain falling around them like the emotions they were holding back in that moment only to collide together in a burst of passion. Truly remarkably shot and production/post production did an outstanding job here.
Special effects - THE WOLVES LOOKED LIKE REAL WOLVES NOT CGI - I could cry with how happy this made me! The specs of werewolf given to the view through this series climax in the fight scene, but each special effect given, whether it is the glowing eyes or the parental link between Alexander and Casey, everything is done in such a way you don't feel taken out of the moment because of cheap special effects - allowing the viewer to remain completely immersed in the series.
Soundtrack - again, every time the soundtrack is played in this series, it is expertly timed and THE CORRECT VOLUME, the song choices, while yes have been heard in a vertical before still add to the value of the series and are not an afterthought to the series.
Choreography - THE FIGHT SCENE CHOREOGRAPHY WAS THE BEST FIGHT SCENE IN A VERTICAL, that coupled with the hint of the "spicy" scenes without needing to be overtly explicit in nature. Every scene was perfectly staged and gave the actors a jumping off platform to deliver their outstanding performances.
Congratulations to the entire production/post production crew on this series.
This series has raised the bar in the vertical space with production, performance, and storyline - this is the best vertical I have seen to date and therefore I cannot in good faith give it a simple 10/10, so as if this is *insert country of choice*'s got talent - I am pressing the gold buzzer, straight through to the top. I know the verties voting for 2024 has just closed, but this may very well be the strongest contender for vertical of the year 2025, couple of the year 2025, and King and Queen vertical Legends 2025. Every single star in this series should be nominated for academy awards, alas they may have to settle for verties next year.

Billionaire Alpha Won't Let Me Go may follow a familiar vertical format, but this one brings its own energy-with a compelling storyline, strong performances, and on-screen chemistry that keeps you engaged from start to finish.
Zoe Anderson is captivating as the devoted mother, torn between past choices and present consequences. She brings warmth, strength, and a protective edge that grounds the whole story. Jeff Violette delivers a powerful performance as Alpha Alexander- burdened by the weight of family legacy, business pressures, and a love that's always just out of reach.
Tate Doppler as Lucas, the steadfast best friend and stand-in father figure to Casey, is one of those characters you quietly root for-his loyalty to Zoe speaks volumes, even when it goes unnoticed.
And of course, no story like this is complete without a villain, and Jennylyn Caterina makes Sabrina deliciously easy to despise, doing whatever it takes to push Zoe and her son out of the picture.
It's not heavy or overly emotional, but it has just the right amount of drama and intrigue to keep you watching episode after episode. No spoilers here-just know this one is absolutely worth the binge.
