BLURB:
Luke accompanied his Alpha to the fae court to do his job, nothing more. Since his mate’s death, he’s been fine with a few nights of solace here and there. He’s never needed anything more than that.
But his gaze keeps drifting to one fae in particular—Dane, the best friend of his Alpha’s newly found mate. When he finds out a human hurt Dane years ago, his protective instincts rise and refuse to be calmed. Protective feelings soon turn possessive as he learns more about the beautiful fae. Dane’s more than willing to come to his bed, but Luke wants more than that. Far, far more.
REVIEW:
I honestly think this is a cute little series. It’s paranormal so that’s a plus for me. But I’m really enjoying these characters. And after the way this book ends, I’m definitely ready to see how that’s going to turn out. It’s going to be a doozy of a book, if I’m reading it right.
Luke, is Gregor’s beta. Gregor is the alpha from book 1, coming to meet and possibly make a match with Jarod, the fae/wolf hybrid. You definitely need to read book 1, by the way, because these books coincide with each other. But while Gregor was getting to know Jarod, Luke was noticing his friend, Dane. And for Luke that was huge, since he’s lost his mate. But something about Dane is making Luke take notice and Luke wants to get to know the fae like never before. But he feels like he needs to take it slow, when Dane seems to want it to go faster. But Luke wants both of them to be sure and it not just be hormones, because Luke finally feels again like this could be a forever thing. Now it’s up to the two of them to work it out on how it’s going to go down.
I really liked these two. Luke was just a sweetheart. With the death of his mate, he had lost any hope of finding someone again. But Dane just captured him from the get go and I loved it. Because everyone fought to keep him going and when he saw Dane, he didn’t give up hope that Dane couldn’t be important to him. He still had hope that he could find love again. And that was perfect. But I loved Dane too, because even with what had happened to him, he didn’t give up either. He didn’t exactly get around much, but when Luke showed interest, he was interested back and for both of them, it was a very special thing. It was huge.
When tragedy strikes, it’s hard to want to move on from it. Both of these guys had had tragedy in their lives, but they overcame. With some help, but they still did. And they held on, even if minutely, they held on to hope that maybe someday, they’d find their happiness in someone else. And it is a big deal. So I really liked these guys because they had a hope for the future. It took communication and compromise, but they learned to work it out, because they knew what was important.
