It was ok. I was disappointed. I had waited for this book to come out excited for another great read from Feehan. I was just sadly disappointed. I didn't connect well with the characters this time. Maybe if she would have started with the heroines story instead of just telling about it I could have connected better. It was just kinda plain. Not enough characters. Feel ripped off. I have read every single book Feehan has written and this is the only one to disappoint.

This one surprised me a bit. I like surprises. Life mates are drawn towards each other, as noted in the synopsis, if this is a first read for you. I like that they are evolving, even if these warriors are the oldest ones! Feeling that perhaps his life mate was untrustworthy, or devoid of integrity this warrior was willing to fight the bond, that through me for a loop. Made me love him all the more, and hurt for him. Julija, Mage and Carpathian, past contributes to the misunderstanding. What I absolutely loved was the shadow cats and how past stories played a part in the shadow cats. As Julija and Isai fight the evil that chases them on their appointed endeavor they learn to trust each other, and themselves. ** Possible Triggers:some of Julija past is a tad difficult to read, but its told as a past occurrence, same with animal abuse.** Thank you for the arc, Berkley and Christine Feehan. All thoughts and opinions are my own and given freely.

I will admit I have missed a few stories in this series but it's like I missed nothing. I have loved this authors stories in the Carpathian world and this book reminds me why. Julija comes from a long line of evil mages namely Xavier. Although a master of Illusion herself she isn't quite as evil as her lineage. We get many facets and beings in this story. Loved the chemistry between Isai and Julija. And I do hope Elisbeta gets a story. A fantastic part of the series and I highly recommend it.
