Raven can’t believe he’s found his mate. The only trouble is, Kovachi has bewitched Raven, and now he feels a compulsion to kidnap Caleb and take his mate to the enemy. The new leader of the Hunters is in Raven’s head, and the only way to stop him from controlling Raven is to put a wall up in his mind. It’s a temporary fix, but one that allows Raven to show Caleb that he’s not alone in this world, that he has Raven in his corner as Caleb mourns his loss.

Review: Each book in the Dark Knights collection features a new romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order. This series is actually one of the branch off of the Brac Pack and several others so I would suggest starting with the first book in the Brac Pack.

Caleb’s brother Jacob had been killed in a car bombing that was meant for his boss. He wanted answers and decided at the funeral was time to get those answers. To bad he didn’t actually have the guts to go up to the man, just follow him for hours in his car.

Raven knew right off the bat that he had been followed by not one but two vehicles. The first one was definitely noticed. The kid was not made for it, but he still needed answers. What he found was his mate. To bad the hunters found out about Caleb, because he will kill anyone who comes after him.

The first thing I am going to say is that I hope that Jacob isn’t dead but that is just a wish. This story was pretty cool and I enjoyed reading it. It gave me everything I could want in a story and so much more. The characters made it rock, although in a way it does leave you hanging. Which means I can’t wait to get my hands on the next book.

Blurb: Declan Royale has the shittiest luck ever. Seriously. He was just standing there, minding his own business, killing a Hunter, and the cops show up. Worse, when the Ultionem hires Declan an attorney, in walks Saul Capezio, the man Declan hates with a passion. This is their first time so close, and when Saul takes a seat, a thick, musky, tantalizing odor slams Declan in the gut. Saul’s his mate. Declan is totally screwed.

Saul takes Declan’s case because he was paid handsomely, but he can’t deny he also wants to shove Declan’s face in the fact that now the loud-mouthed jerk’s freedom is in his hands. He just didn’t expect to fall for Declan, or to nearly get blown up by a car bombing…or two.

As Saul fights to keep his heart intact, Declan reveals his deepest, darkest secret—a secret that could get Declan killed.

Review: Each book in the Dark Knights collection features a new romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order. In this case you should start with the original series “ Brac Pack”. That introduces you into this amazing world, and is cut off in to many different series. So a lot more reading in your future.

Lynn Hagen was one of the first m/m romance authors that I came across and knew that she would be a favorite of mine. Her stories are funny as hell but do have a underlining of serious attitudes. In this case, Declan killed a hunter and was caught by the local police, the human police. Now he was in trouble, and leave it to the one lawyer he hates to be the one to rescue him. To top it off the man is his mate.

Saul is pretty much in agreement wit Declan. He can’t stand the loud mouth, but there was something about him that turns him on just as fast. Now to find out what deep and dark secret his mate is hiding from him. Well that is after they find out who is trying to kill them.

I get a crack out of these books. There is a serious tone to parts of it, but humor out matches it. I love the characters and how they seem to be able to stand up to their rough and snarky mates. Their mates will kill any and all just to protect them. I had a lot of fun reading this and can not wait to get my hands on the next book.

Review: Each book in the Dark Knights collection features a new romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order. This series is a branch off from several series, starting with Brac Pack. This includes Brac Pack, Brac Village, Christian’s Coven, Zeus’s Pack and many more.

Joelle had basically led a boring life. He loved to read and hang out with his mother. He was still that way, well till Ryan dragged him out. To bad Ryan’s best friend was a bit prickly. Then he met Kivani and his life is about to get a bit more exciting, but he wasn’t really a person who like excitement. Kivani is going to have his hands full.

Kivani, like the other knights, had led a nasty past life. On top of that he was also keeping a secret, his cousin was a hunter. Kivani is an assassin who kept the paranormal’s and their mates safe. Now he has a sexy mate, and danger just keeps on a coming.

Lynn Hagen was one of the first m/m romance authors that I started reading and actually kept on reading. The characters are fully developed and damn hot. They are alpha males with sexy little mates that have had their own problems. They are action packed with quite a bit of danger in them, but don’t worry there is some hot sexy time also.

I loved this book but I knew I would before reading it. This story caught my attention from the start and kept it all the way to the end. I had a blast with it and can’t wait to get my hands on the next book.

Henry has the worst taste in men, the latest was in an open relationship. To bad the man had never said a word to Henry about it. Then he goes down to complain to his best friend, only to be abducted by a sexy bear shifter. A bear shifter who says he is his mate, to bad he has no clue what that means.

Nyx has had a very rough life and a darkness inside of him. He is an assassin for the Ultionem and protected the paranormals and the mates. He has finally found his mate and as it turns out the hunters no who they are. Things are going to get hairy real fast.

I loved this book but I knew I would before reading it. I am not a fan of the series name, but it only took me to the third book to remember where it came from. This story caught my attention from the start and kept it all the way to the end. I had a blast with it and can’t wait to get my hands on the next book.

Review: Each book in the Dark Knights collection features a new romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and cross over characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order. This series is a branch off from Brac Pack, Zeus’s Pack, Christian’s Coven, Brac Village, Demon Warriors, Wolves of Desire, Brac Pack Next Gen, and so forth. I would start this series by reading the first Book in Brac Pack.

The Dark Knights were formed to get rid of the hunters and now that the leader of the hunter were dead, things are getting harder. Devil is one of the knights but he only took the job to save his life. His pack had wanted him dead and the chance was a good one. To bad he wasn’t really a killer and one of the names on the list was a man he owed. A man who saved him, and the man who was his mates ex. Should make it easier I suppose.

Ryan had been dating Jeff for a few months, till Jeff dumped him by text. His best friend was the one that decided to get him out of the house and straight into Devil’s arms. However there are many surprises that Ryan doesn’t know yet, and boy can you imagine his expression when he does find out.

I came across Lynn when her first book for Brac Pack came out, and she was a favorite ever since. Her stories have quite a bit of humor in them, especially when Cecil gets involved. It is like a ride that never ends. They have a serious tone to it, but more humor then serious. I get a kick out of them and always look forward to the next one. Now if only there were humans who treated their love like the men in these books treat theirs.

I got a kick out of this and would definitely recommend it.
