I do love this series. I love how she has come up with something like the Royals.
I tried to put myself in Anton’s shoes. Here he was one that sit on the seat of the Shifter Council. He wanted to be there to fight for his people but he chose such a lonely life. He chose to never be with his mate if he ever found her. He chose fighting for his people over his happiness, over love. This had to be a very lonely road.
I just loved Nyx. She might of been young but she had this fire about her. She was a strong sifter for not being a Royal. She had dreams and wanted to chase them. She did not want to be tied to a mate and give up her dreams.
I love how she came in like this storm in Anton’s life. She did not fear Anton even though she knew the rumors that surrounded him. It was like she had this 6th sense that told her he would not hurt her.
I can only imagine what it was like for Anton to realize he found the one thing he felt he could never have, his mate. I loved reading the inward battle he was faced with, to keep her or to let her go. He wanted to be this unselfish man but part of him wanted to be selfish and keep her.
I loved we got to see what kind of person Nyx was. She had a good heart and wanted to do what was right. She had this inward battle of her own. She wanted to get to the bottle of things and find the truth.
There was a lot of steamy parts in the book and I loved no matter how much Anton tried to come off this cold person that Nyx saw right through him and knew what he was doing. She call him on his crap and did not care going toe to toe with him. Just loved it.
Great story and glad I got a chance to read the book.
Oh my! This author has done it again. I just can’t seem to get enough of these Royal Shifters and their extremely primal/dominate site.
Although this can be read as a stand alone, I will be referencing things that happened within the series prior to this book in this review. Still no spoilers though…
Anton Alexander is a Councilman who’s dedicated his life (literally) to protecting through the law. Advocating for woman’s rights, as well as other issues, have become a focal point to him ever since Molly joined his pack. Even though he doesn’t see his pack often, protecting them is the most important thing in his world.
Nyx Mercer is the niece of a Councilman who is out for revenge. She’s always been in the shadows, bowing down to men and their primitive ways of treating woman less than. But now she has a chance to fix that. All she has to do is produce proof that Anton killed his former secretary. Once she does that, she can take the vacant seat on the Council, becoming the first woman to ever sit there. But she’s starting to find that not everything she’s been told holds truth. In fact, there are many things that don’t add up.
The plot only thickens when you add in the fact that Anton recognizes that Nyx is his true mate, even though she has noticed yet. Councilman having a mate is extremely dangerous because they can easily be used against them. But he’s having a very hard time dismissing her. Pushing her away has only made it that much harder to distance himself. And you’ll never guess how Nyx deals with being pushed away.
I feel like it’s been a while since I’ve read this series. Maybe is has. But once I started reading this, it all came back to me. And it was nice to visit with Kane and Molly again. The chemistry between Anton and Nyx is super hot. The anticipation built so much that it’s no wonder there was an explosion. Obviously, there’s a HEA, but now I’m looking forward to the next one.
Oh man I loved the latest from Nancy Corrigan and her shifter world!! When Nyx walks into Anton’s world it will change everything. Nyx has her reasons for showing up wanting to work for Anton and he has his reasons for not wanting her to stay, but the pull they feel won’t be denied no matter what it may mean. Nyx is such a strong female character and she matches Anton is so many ways while complimenting him in other areas. Anton knows that he has a strong female for his fated mate in Nyx. These two could be an unstoppable force when it comes to making necessary changes for the shifter world.
It’s been a while since I was able to visit the Royal Kagan world, thankfully it hasn’t changed much it still has powerful, dominant alpha males and sometimes even stronger females. For the most part the males dominate this world but that’s all about to change if Nyx has her way, she was brought up to strive for a place on the Council. Anton is a shoe in for the next eldest being the oldest shifter on the council. For years he has been searching for the book his namesake has written as he believes it better protects the females and will allow the Council to mate. All that changes when Nyx applies for the open secretarial position and he discovers that Nyx is his now more than ever he must find the book.
I thoroughly enjoyed this story as it has a bit of everything I love while being well put together and a page turner. I would definitely recommend this to all the shifter loving people cause they will get quite the “meat” to chew if you know what I mean.
I voluntarily read an advance copy and have not been compensated in any way for this opinion.
