A troubled witch and a handsome warlock unite against an evil coven in this paranormal romance by the New York Times-bestselling author of Everwylde. The power of Helena’s magic has made her a target for the Coven. She wanted no part in the war of the witches, but it’s out of her hands now. She must make a stand–and she does that by helping the Hunters and their allies against their common … and their allies against their common enemy. And now, the witch who ripped Helena’s future apart is coming. Sybbyl’s vengeance is swift and terrible, pitting the two against each other. But Helena doesn’t have to fight the Coven alone. A seductive warlock offers his aid. Helena is hesitant to give her trust to him–because it’s more than her life on the line. It’s her heart as well.
As the most feared and respected warrior of the Varroki, Jarin is used to being on his own. But with the Coven’s quest to locate the bones of the First Witch escalating, he finds it increasingly difficult to retain his solitary existence. When Jarin encounters Helena, he is helpless to resist her. She’s everything he didn’t know he wanted, and with her help, he’s convinced that maybe his people can finally defeat their foe. But there’s so much more at play than they know―ties in blood and sacrifice―and the loss that’s sure to follow may be greater than any of them can bear.

Helene has been running from the Coven for a long time. While she plans to keep avoiding the Coven as much as possible she does help the Hunters when she can. At least until a handsome warlock changes her mind and is willing to stand beside her against the Coven.
“I will stand with you in the most violent of storms. I will stand with you to face the deadliest of foes. I will stand with you in the calmest ocean. Because you are in my heart.”
I adored Helen and Jarin’s story. These two were adorable and heartbreaking at the same time. I loved the choices these two had to make and their openness with each other. Helene was one tough cookie. Her past is heartbreaking and she never really had time to mourn the trauma that happened before she went on the run. Helene is a strong heroine who you can’t help but love.
Jarin has been the Varroki we have seen the most of in this series. He is a quiet soul that is filled with a surprising amount of compassion. While he is very powerful he isn’t arrogant about it or flashy, which made me love him even more. I loved Jarin’s “friends”, Valdr and Andi as well. They made perfect companions in the fight against the Coven.
The overall story progressed a lot in this book. Sybbyl dealt a huge blow to the Hunters and Varroki at the end of this book and it changed everything. This was unexpected and heartbreaking and I both loved it and hated it. I really can’t wait to read the next book because I need to know how the Hunters deal with all the changes that happened.

I loved it. She is one of my favorite authors. Cant wait for the next book
Helena finally has her day and it packs a punch. Her story is tragic and her fight is long and hard. She may seem like she runs from danger but that could not be further from the truth. Jarin is use to fighting alone. As a warrior of the Varroki he knows how to fight but what they are up against with Sybbyl is way out of his league. They are both strong and taking out the evil that is Sybbyl is their number one priority. A beautiful pairing, a match that could not be more perfect for each other. This one really takes things to the next level and be forewarned, it will hurt.
A continuation of the Kindred series. A story of unknown destinies, bonds of love, villains you love to hate, and tragedies that will break your heart. Jarin has met his match in Helena, a witch who has spent her life avoiding the Coven. A woman who he is drawn to because of her intelligence, compassion and strength. When details of her life are revealed her days of running are over. She must face the Coven before she loses everything, again. An adventurous story that kept me ensnared and longing for more
Everbound is the third book in the Kindred series, and so far my favorite. I’m so glad that this was Jarin’s book, he had intrigued me every time we met him. He turned out to be a wonderful character. Jarin and Helana’s story was beautiful. Good progress was made with the storyline with the coven. More is revealed with the Malene and Armir as well. I truly hope that the next book is theirs.
The Hunters, The Coven, and The Varroki all want a piece of Helena!
Helena is still hiding out from the Coven, shying away from using her magic when she can to avoid giving away her location. But when a Varroki stumbles upon her, she has to stand her ground and take down the Coven once and for all.
There twists and turns, red herrings and more than one WTF moments I’ll admit! I got a lost a few times and had to backtrack to make sure that I had kept everything straight in the old noggin. There are more new characters added and I’m sure that there must be an off-shoot series to accommodate all my what-about-this threads!
Helena is a strong character, she has had to be with the life she has led. Jarin for his part is also emotionally and physically strong but with a contemplative outlook that belies his warrior rank.
No cliffies as such but I really want to know what happens next!
