With the Second Rebellion raging in the city, Curtis Geary, the Keepers’ tech guru, receives a Compulsion for Jordan, a Betrayer ousted by her brood and left for dead. … guru, receives a Compulsion for Jordan, a Betrayer ousted by her brood and left for dead. His orders? Obtain information from her that can save his clan–before it’s too late. Plunged into a war zone, cut off from his clan, Curtis quickly discovers this woman is no ordinary Betrayer. Not only does his Vitality energy inexplicably save her life, she may be the missing link in the Keepers’ quest to restore Similitude–the Betrayers’ manufactured weapon deadly to Keepers.
Despised by her own brood, Jordan’s mysterious ability and a wicked set of street smarts have kept her alive–along with the havoc she’s been forced to wreak on humans as a means of creating dark energy. Against his better judgement, Curtis is helplessly drawn to this enigma of a woman, who defies the logic of his trusty computers.
Despite a lifetime of mistrust and her soldier’s survival instincts, Jordan can’t help falling for this at times awkward but genuine man who offers her what she’s always yearned for–love and an opportunity for a better life. But in a race against time and a brood master hell-bent on destruction, love and loyalty will come under fire–within the brood and the clan.
Can Jordan find the courage to embrace her future and find love? Or will she betray the clan and herself as the Keepers wage what may be their final battle to save the human race?

The Crossing Realms Series Book 3 is another winner. It’s our world but the supernatural beings kept us safe until the Betrayer became stronger. Now they are trying to make Chaos reign. What is their goal and are the Keepers strong enough to repel them? We are again trust into a brutal world of mayhem and madness. Each book gets better and better. This book is Curtis and Jordan’s story and it is the most unlikely story in this series.
Curtis is a Keeper; his specialty is computers. He runs all the logistics for the clan. He has been working in the warehouse helping the others convert dark power into Similitude. The Betrayers have found them though and raided the warehouse, stolen their Similitude and left Jordan for dead. As Curtis and Zane scramble to clean up the warehouse and flee, they discover that Jordan is not dead after all. They put her into the van and head to a safe house.
Jordan is a Betrayer. She is a spy for the Betrayers. However, she has never really been accepted by them because she is a half breed. Being a Betrayer is all she has ever known and when she wakes up in the presence of Curtis at the safe house, she panics. Her whole life is about to change. That change will affect not just her but also the Keepers. Is Jordan strong enough for this mystery?
You’ll have to read this fast-paced thriller to find the answers. I thoroughly enjoyed this series and recommend for young and old. Maybe the author will continue this series as there are still a few questions unanswered.
I like to read paranormal romances. But I had become burnt on them. Too much of a good thing. But when I saw that The Betrayer was going to be available, I decided to jump on it. I had reviewed the other books in the series. I am glad that I did because this book was a perfect addition to the Crossing Realms series!!
I liked the romance angle of The Betrayer. The whole opposites attract theory worked well in this book. Curtis and Jordan couldn’t have been further apart. I liked how the author took those differences and made them work.
There were a couple of sex scenes. To be honest, I didn’t think that Jordan and Curtis would actually have sex. There was so much going on. But they did. It was hot.
The paranormal angle of The Betrayer was interesting. I liked that there was more insight into the working of the Brood. Also, Magpie and Jordan’s relationship was explored. As was Jordan, Abel, and her father’s relationship. I did enjoy seeing how Curtis’s Vitality changed Jordan. And Jordan’s secret. Oh wow. I wasn’t expecting that.
The end of The Betrayer was great. I liked how everything was resolved. But, it did make me ask more questions. Like is Zane going to be like Dev? And what about Jordan’s mother? I am also interested to see if there will be another book in the series.
This is the third book in the Crossing Realms series and I’m a huge fan!
I’m not real familiar with this author’s work and was intrigued by the synopsis for this story and am glad that I snatched this one up to read! This can be read without reading the prior two books since that’s how I read this, but I’m definitely planning on going back and devouring the first two books now!
This story is about the war raging between the keepers and the betrayers and is a perfect illustration of the fact that love knows no bounds. Jordan and Curtis are on opposite sides and can’t deny the connection they feel towards each other. I loved the chemistry between these two and was rooting for them to work out from the moment they met!
This story has a little bit of everything for everyone, from tons of action and danger, to tender moments that literally brought tears to my eyes. This amazing story is perfect for fans of the paranormal genre, which is my personal favorite by far.
I highly recommend reading this to anyone and I look forward to much more from this author in the future.
I reviewed this for Reviews from the Heart.
