The Blurb:
Eden Green can’t remember a time she
didn’t believe in monsters—her cousin was born one. Her family’s dark
past casts a long shadow, making it hard to make friends and harder to
commit to a lover. She lives a quiet life in small-town Clover,
Tennessee, but she’s always waiting for the other shoe to drop.
Tired of the city packs’ corruption, yet
too alpha to be a subordinate in a sanctuary town, Jay Ancheta
satisfies his need to protect by serving as Clover’s Chief of Police. As
much as he’s drawn to Eden, he can’t offer forever to a woman who
doesn’t know what he is—or trust himself to let her go after one taste.
When Eden’s cousin and his battered pack
stagger into town, their tormentors hard on their heels, Eden is bitten
in the chaos. Now Jay not only has a traumatized pack to deal with, but
a newly turned wolf with enough hungry alpha power to consume them
both.
With their combined strength, they can
create a new sanctuary—if their passion can survive the ghosts of the
Green family’s legacy.
Warning: Contains a newly turned
werewolf heroine who enjoys a little rough dominance in bed and a badass
alpha wolf hero who’ll fight bad guys, ghosts and even the past to
protect what’s his. Be prepared for violence, death and heartbreak on
the way to a happily ever after.
The Review:
I loved Moira Rogers Red Rock Pass
series, so when Moira Rogers offered ARCs for this one, I requested
it on the spot. And I am glad I did.
This was a sizzling, yet heart
wrenching paranormal romance, set in small rural town that felt
believable. I enjoyed the nuances in small town life, which made it
feel believable. One factor that I liked was the historic feel of
the farm were the pack settled. There were also hint of other
things,more darker events, through the book which was a touch that I appreciated .
While the focus on this book was Jay
and Eden, their romance was heavily intertwined with the apperance of
Zach and his werewolf friends. The pack brought with them a lot of
problems, which felt logical. But, I liked how they were
determinded to create a better life, and everyone pitched in.
Eden and Jay had been attracted to each
other for a long time, and I liked how their allowed their casual
friendship develop into something more, despite the chaos their life
turn into.The plot gripped me from
the start, and the feeling of danger kept creeping higher and higher until it reached the breaking plot. I loved how the pack dealed with the final confrontation with their enemies. It was the perfect, and logical, sollution.
The problem with all that tension was
that it overshadowed Jay and Eden's relationship at the end of the
book. Not much, but enough for me to notice it.
