BLURB:
Arne Miller’s security company was his pride and joy. He treated his employees like a family, did his job with dedication, and found the time to have fun while performing the most dangerous of tasks.
When Levi literally runs into his arms and looks up at him with fear-filled green eyes, Arne’s entire world flips upside down and finds a new focus. But his mate is hiding a secret that could tear them apart. Can Arne find out what it is before it’s too late?
Levi Parker was a prominent member of the Kriila society until one day he mysteriously vanished. Years later he was thrust back into the cruel world he had tried so hard to escape.
He didn’t expect to be met with a media frenzy, prying eyes, and questions that threatened to uncover more than he was willing to reveal. And he least expected to find his mate in Arne.
But can he look toward his future with Arne if his past still haunts him?
REVIEW:
I am so excited to be reading this amazing series. These wonderful authors create a universe so real and poignant.
Levi has been hiding for so long from Him. His prominent parents fled their circle and recreated their lives within the new circle they landed in with the humans. The only person who knows of who they really are is the boy that they brought in as their own when his parents died…Jude. Jude is now the mate of Council Leader Kiran Castillo and the media are still on a frenzy over the Council Leader choosing a human for a mate. When Jude accidentally slips up mentioning Levi’s name to Arne at the inauguration party it turns out it didn’t go unheard. Now Levi is in danger from the one that hurt him so badly before and Arne is making sure his mate will be protected at all costs.
If you are looking for a hot, steamy, sex-filled book this isn’t it. This wonderful novel shows the loving, nurturing and caring side of committed mates. It truly demonstrates, through Arnie’s strong mate connection, his self-sacrifice for the welfare of his mate. Even though Levi rejected their mating, which was extremely mentally and physically painful for both men, he truly felt he was broken and unworthy of Arnie’s love and commitment, Arne remained steadfast to making sure Levi, his true and only mate, was protected and cared for. This is the story of hope and of men of honor who will literally do anything to protect and care for their mate. Yes there is a couple sex scenes but this isn’t erotica but a romance novel filled with love and caring.
I particularly like the new character introduced in this book. Doc is not only Arnie’s dear friend but also his security company he owns private doctor. Hearing Doc’s back story and why he went into medicine, particularly specializing in wing care, was heartbreaking. He was the perfect doctor for Levi and the trauma he endured from the hands of his ex.
I will say I wasn’t the least bit surprised who Him was. He was and continued to be a slimy excuse for a male. He was sadistic and narcissistic…just like his dear old dad. There were enough hints given through the book that I figured out who he was really fast. And I was thrilled with the ending to his story but also Arne and Levi’s too. Good triumphs over evil will always be a great read for me and this book does that in spades!
I highly recommend this amazing story and series. I will admit that it pushed my fantasy boundaries a bit but, once I adapted to these new creatures and their written universe, I fell hard for these men and their mates. I can’t wait for Doc and Bailey’s story next. That’s bound to be a doozy!
