My Book Summary : Dupree has been with the Order for years/centuries now. The Order is a place where hybrids (half-demons) work to fight full demons and try to keep the peace throughout the land. However, with the new animosity that has started, ever since Dupree's old leader, Ben, went rogue and now councilor's are starting to turn up dead, things for the Order have gone from the everyday norm to complete chaos.
To top that off ... Kara, who Dupree has known since she was a little girl and who is also his potential bond mate, has come to the age when she can decide to become a hybrid or not. Even after long counseling sections (something that's always required before it happens), and even against Dupree's wishes, Kara decides to become a hybrid. However, with her new powers coming in place, attacks against the compound they are located in and the Order itself, will anything start becoming right for them once and for all? Or is there someone on the inside who has plans to make things a whole lot harder for them?
My Book Review : 4 out of 5 stars!! This novel takes off where "Kiss of Darkness" (Book 1) ends, while still being a novel that has the potential to be read as a standalone novel. I was really happy and appreciative about that since I hadn't read Book 1 in this series yet. Anyway ....
This novel has three plots going on...
First - is the plot that connects everything. It's about Ben being a rogue, what he's doing and how they can kill him and what is going on within the Order and its people.
Second - (and most important, I think) is about Kara and Dupree. Their love for each other. Their personal wants. The push/pull effect Dupree puts in their relationship because he wants to do the right thing for Kara, yet he's not sure if he is the right guy for her.
Third - (I think these two are going to be the lead characters in Book 3 in this series) is about Gia and Luke. Gia was kidnapped by Ben, and about how everyone can find her or if she escapes on her own. Luke and Gia had a relationship going before she was kidnapped but after Gia was gone, Luke finds out that their relationship was more serious than either of them originally planned.
All together, it is a very interesting novel that has great potential as an addicting series!! I recommend this story for those who are interested in novels like J. R. Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood Series, because even though their plots are very different they have the same feel of writing behind them. =0)
Book Teaser(s) :
Teaser #1
“She was out alone?”
“Near as we can tell.” Dupree sighed. It didn’t make more sense now than it did then.
“Was that unusual?”
Dupree snorted. “You let your woman run around alone? Neither did Ben.”
“I don’t get away with telling my wife what to do anymore than you do.”
“I’m not married,” Dupree pointed out. Beside him Kara got very quiet.
Gray grinned. “Yet?”
“Like I told Winter. My business. Not yours.” He wasn’t discussing his personal life with Gray. He didn’t trust the Grand Master and he wasn’t about to say or do anything to put Kara in more danger. Or make her angrier with him than she already was. ~ within Chapter 17
