About this ebook

A trained assassin…a man even the deadliest of warriors fear. To cross him is foolish. To steal his heart is pure madness.

Sachin, head advisor to the king of the Accipitridae realm, has been forced to put his trips to Earth on hold. He’s not been honest with himself or King Kabril about his need to visit the primitive planet. The king thinks him to be a womanizer, out to bed as many human females as possible.

In truth, a woman he should have been able to woo with little to no effort—his mate—has found someone else to fill that void in her life. She wasn’t supposed to be on Earth. She wasn’t supposed to be human. And she sure the hell wasn’t supposed to agree to marry another man while Sachin was away.

Sachin must make a choice, give up the one woman he knows to be his true mate and let her live in ignorant bliss of what walks among her people, or fight for what’s his, taking it at all costs. A trained assassin…a man even the deadliest of warriors fear. To cross him is foolish. To steal his heart is pure madness.

Ratings and reviews

Well, the storyline was good but there were questions left unanswered, at least for me. The female protagonist was questionable, it's difficult to explain while not writing spoilers, but she will make your head shake. Sachin, the best friend of Kabril and leader of his guard, has run in to a situation on one of his many visits to Earth realm. The story is basically a novella on the results of his actions. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Another great story that I enjoyed reading and it kept me entertained throughout the whole story. The story is very well written and the cover of the book is awesome. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

4.5 Stars This second installment to the King of Prey series was well written with an engaging story line and endearing characters that kept me reading from beginning to end in one sitting. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
