Review: This is book ten in this series and they should be read in order. It makes it easier to keep the characters straight. I loved this series and this book is no different. Marcy always gives me characters that show their strengths and weaknesses. You cannot help but fall in love with them.
Ryland had sold twenty years of his life to the vampires to keep his father alive. He started out as a feeder and a sex slave, but when the vampires realized, they kept the werewolf hoping they would turned him into an assassin. It was not something he wanted to do, but he would do anything to save his father. What he had not expected was when he went after his target, the man he was talking to on the computer and the phone was also a werewolf.
At the time he went after the alpha, he had noticed the other man but not realized who it was. He had a hot date with Hil, and had not realized that Hil was the other werewolf that he had taken a shot at. It wasn’t until after sex when he couldn’t help but not only see Hil’s fangs and claws but that there was a knot connecting them both. He had ended it right then and there and kicked Hil out of his home, but not out of his heart. He couldn’t stop thinking about him. So when the vampires wanted the alpha killed he knew that he had to protect them.He would do anything to protect the man he had fallen in love with even if it had meant his life.
Hil realized that this was the assassin everyone was talking about, angry did not overcome the love he felt for Ryland. Nor the fact that his mate was pregnant with his pup. They had many differences to overcome but with the love these two men had, they could win this war.
I love a book that is not only paranormal but a romance story. When you add in danger that makes it even more exciting to read. I would recommend reading this book, because once you pick it up you won’t be able to put it down. It caught my attention from the very start and kept it all the way to the end. I cannot wait to read book eleven.
