Synopsis:
Bad boy Jonas Wyatt’s personal assistant, Rachel, has had a child; an innocent new life that has been put in grave danger because of Jonas’s perilous games and calculations played in the shadow-world in which he lives: the dark and sensual world of the Breeds. Now, Rachel is making only one demand of Jonas—that he finally take responsibility and deliver on the protection that only he can give.
Jonas has known for a long time that it is destiny that Rachel become his mate. He can sense it. He can also sense her reluctance. And for that, he refuses to claim her. He wants her on love alone and not because of the urge of the mating heat. But it is Jonas’s destiny to claim her. And he will have his way…
Review:
I waited for this book to come out because I REALLY loved the Breed series that Lora Leigh put together and the other books were spectacular. This one, however, is a bit of a disappointment. Don’t get me wrong, I loved the story, just not as Jonas’s story. At the end of chapter two I decided to continue reading it as a Breed story rather than Jonas’s story and as such it did not disappoint. I think the best way is to break it down and tell you why I gave it the marks I did. Read more
They’ve won their freedom, become the new alpha couple in town, struck a deal of equality with the city’s vampires, opened a new restaurant (aptly named New Moon) and now Kitty and Ben are going to make it all official—the human way at least—by tying the knot. Deciding they are overwhelmed by all the matrimonial hoopla, the couple make a plan to elope in, where else but, Las Vegas, Nevada—the city of neon temples, Wayne Newton, drunken mistakes and Elvis impersonators.
Kitty’s best friend has died and now it looks like her life is next on the chopping block. Nothing left to do but run, and take The Midnight Hour with her by doing the show from various different locales in hopes of avoiding her old pack which she rebelled against. Kitty then gets word that she has been requested by the Senate to testify on behalf of all supernatural beings in Washington D.C. So, it’s to the capital she goes.
