BLURB:
Bear lays with human, not bear.
Or so the old bear law has always said. It was beaten into Declan and his brother bear, Ryder’s heads since they were small, just like every other cub in school. Yet when they find their mate, an omega, sneaking a dip in the mountain’s spring, Declan can’t ignore the need he feels, bear or not.
Ryder feels the same lusts, but he’s much more concerned about an omega being their mate. He knows claiming another bear could get them exiled. He stops Declan before things go too far, but even that isn’t enough to stop them from being sent off bear lands.
Gage knows his mates when he sees them, but also knows they can never be together. As an omega, he’s the lowest chaste in the bear world, an invisible slave to those above him. The fantasy is too scary to imagine, no matter how much his body yearns to be claimed by the two handsome males.
It’ll take the bear world to be flipped upside down for the three of them to find a way to be together.
REVIEW:
I’ll go on record as saying I’ve always liked most everything I’ve read by this author. This one though was towards the lower end of my like chart. There was really no warning that this book was a set-back to tell the story of Declan and Ryder, much of the story taking place before where book three ended. I was totally confused when Traylon all of sudden showed back up. I was like, what the hell? He’s dead. Then I realized it was a side story to explain the background of the two bears who were exiled because of Traylon and Oberon’s machinations.
So then I started understanding more about what was going on, but this book still didn’t seem quite on par with the previous three in the series. I still liked it, just not as much.
Declan and Ryder have been exiled from Bear Mountain because of Traylon and Oberon. As we knew from the previous book, Traylon and Oberon have been behind most of the bad stuff happening on Bear Mountain for years. When Gage, the Omega who Declan and Ryder recognize is their mate, was attacked, the only bears he saw that night were Declan and Ryder. Traylon convinced him they were his attackers, and Gregor, Declan’s dad and the Alpha of the pack, had little he could do other than to exile him. Ryder wasn’t exiled, but he went with his brother bear into exile.
Now they are back, and it is just in time for the events near the end of book three. What will happen after the fateful night that Gregor was killed?
Hopefully I didn’t give too many spoilers. This was a hard review to write, because book 3 is a total spoiler for book 4. The reader already knows almost all of what happens in this book, and that was why I didn’t really care for it much. Oh well, you can’t please everyone all the time, and this was my time not to be as pleased. I’m off to read another book by the same author in another series. I’m expecting to be much happier with that one! I’m going to leave this one with a rating of 3.0 out of 5.0 stars because of the massive overlap of stories.
