Review: This is the second book in this series but you need to read book one first. That is where you will meet Caleb and learn about how he got to where he was now. Now I love paranormal stories but this one was a disappointment.
In the first book you will find out about how Caleb had been with Amaya but met and fell in love with Gabriel. In the three years he was just trying to make it through life. That ended when he met his cousin. He had killed almost all of his pack and had not known about Natasha or the others. He had not even known that everyone had thought he had been killed also.
Through Natasha he finds out his mom is still alive but is in danger. He goes back to his Uncles to find out that he was a father and hooks up with Amaya once more. Deciding then that he needed the past to be fixed, he goes in hunt for not only his birth father, but the man who was holding his mother hostage.
Dmitri was an evil wolf who leads by fear and pain. Caleb needed to take the man down. H needed to make him feel the pain that he has caused all the others. He had not counted on falling in love with Tyson. Tyson was his mate, yet Amaya was his also and let’s just say it gets pretty confusing. Pretty much he is cheating on them both, but they love him all the same.
Now this is not your normal romance novel because it is not a threesome like most but they take turns with each other. It would have been a five star book had they left Amaya out of the relationship part. I can’t stand books with cheating and that knocked this book down a step. Also I can’t stand a romance story that has a female in it. I had read the first book and was pleased by it. So I took a chance on this story and found out that Amaya was in it. So I was a bit grossed out.
There is a lot of this story that was good though. It has a great story line with a perfect plot. I loved the danger that they were going through. It is like a detective story that has gone the way of the wolf. Even with Amaya in it, the story itself was quite a surprise. I was pleased with the way it was told over all. The first parts of the story tell about Anna who is Caleb’s birth mom and her husband Marc.
Then it goes into Caleb’s story which is actually where I started getting confused at. It has a twist to it that in most stories is a pretty cool thing, but it did the exact opposite for me. There was a lot of dialog and description that could have been left out. There is also a lot of darkness to the story and not a hint of humor to it. So this story like I said is good but it is missing parts that would make it perfect.
Overall, the story is pretty good. I must admit that had Amaya been taken out of this sexually it would have been better. If you are into stories that have male on male plus a female added in then this is your type of story. Once I got passed the sex scenes, which I might add I totally skipped over, I couldn’t put the story down.
