When Apollo Roman woke to a gorgeous man cooking breakfast in his kitchen, the thought that the two were mates was the farthest thing from his mind. The only thing he was thinking about was being claimed by the bear of man, especially when Grayson spreads him out like the guy's own personal buffet. But happiness comes with a price. Apollo learns this when Grayson disappears soon afterward.
Grayson Sanchez snuck into Aberdeen Valley so he could speak to Alpha Khenti and convince the man to give him and his surviving pack sanctuary. What started as a scouting mission soon turns into a fantasy come true when Grayson not only finds the man of his dreams, but claims him.
But in order to keep his dream, Grayson will have to fight an unknown enemy, defy the council, and commit to something bigger than he's ever imagined. And even then, there is no guarantee that the two will have anything more than a moment in time.
Ahhh, I went when I saw this book appear on the coming soon pages, finally I get to read Apollo’s story. As the third brother of the three somewhat mysterious elite enforcers brought in to support the Aberdeen pack’s security, he remained unattached until now – when he ends up mated to Grayson, a total stranger and cannot even remember mating him. If it wasn’t for the mating bite they both have, Apollo wouldn’t even be sure he was mated at all. What an interesting start to a story! Add the ongoing wolf council machinations and evil plans, a deathly threat of unknown origin to Grayson’s pack, and some very hot bedroom activity, and you’ve got the ingredients for a very entertaining novella.
Apollo has never really thought about finding his mate, but now that he has one, and cannot remember their first encounter, he is determined to get to know him. His desperation and anger when Grayson promptly disappears is understandable. But, being a determined warrior, he does not give up easily. The quest for justice that follows makes very good use of Apollo’s abilities as a fighter, and I loved how he supports Grayson through everything the unseen enemies throw at the new couple.
Grayson is desperate, but finding his mate lets him forget everything for a little while. He berates himself afterwards, and he ends up really torn between his newfound lover and the duty to the survivors of his pack. He may not be an alpha, but he is a determined and very strong man who fights for the ones he loves with everything he has.
If you have enjoyed the first three books in this series (best read in order) and are a fan of the Aberdeen Wolves struggling for their right to live, if you like reading about men who end up mated but are total strangers – then have to deal with it, and if you're looking for a read with tension, cruel enemies, and wolf shifters who become passionate lovers as they survive the threats against them, then you will probably like this novella.
