Blurb: A drunken bet with his boyfriend leads Noah to the Wolf Den and a night of wild sex he’ll never forget. But he gets more than he bargained for, when he ends up in the middle of a war between Lycans and vampires.
The pack Alpha orders Kade to seduce the human male drinking in the Wolf Den. Noah is easy on the eyes and Kade agrees, but sparks fly and the Lycan finds himself wondering if he’s been seduced as well. When the Alpha reveals his plans for the blue-eyed blond, Kade wonders if he’ll be able to carry them out.
Review: Hmmm, well errr… Noah lands in more trouble than he thought possible when he is goaded into a dare by his lover and he visits the Wolf Den. Kade is given the task of taking care of the human but it doesn’t take long for him to realize that he cares what happens to the little human. Jesse is worried about his lover when he doesn’t come home and goes looking for him only to find trouble.
This is a great story that is hot in all the right places and keeps you wanting more. Noah feels a connection to Kade but feels guilty for cheating on Jess. , Jesse admits that Kade is hot and Kade admits that both these men turn him on. We have a kidnapping, drugging, danger, a chase through the woods and then a bit of conflict with vampires and I enjoyed all of it.
But… even though this is set in Arcadia City and the Colony, it is more like a side story than a true Symbiotic Mates book as I thought only Lycans and Vampires could have a Symbiotic bond (if I am wrong please let me know). I have a feeling that there will be more of these three men’s story still to come as I really can’t see Christophe leaving it like it is now.
My recommendation is… a definite must read for paranormal fans, those who love hot sex and a semi happy ending? (As they are together but… what does the future hold for them?)
Hi Pixie, thanks so much for the great review! You’re right. This is more of a side story. Kade, Noah and Jesse aren’t symbiotic, just they’re just lovers who are caught up in the intrigue. Have a great week!
Hi Gale Stanley, Glad you liked the review, and I look forward to the next book in the series.
Pixie.
I’m not much into this paranormal stuff, but the excerpt made me interested enough to purchase. I was not disappointed. Go story Gale.
