Book Blurb

Garret Abbot is an alpha wolf amongst a clan of dragons, and the gorgeous healer, Kristoff, has caught his eye. Now he can't go back to his pack.

Garret is driving himself and his wolf insane by keeping away. He hasn't been interested in more than a one night stand since the death of his mate and child, and now here is someone else he feels the mating call for.

Garret feels it so intensely that he comes on too strong during their first round of fabulous sex, and he bites Kristoff without his permission, sealing them together forever.

Kristoff was forced once before, and he never wants to be in that position again. If Garret doesn't want to lose his new mate, he will do everything in his power to make up for his mistake, including giving his life to make sure hunters don't harm the only man he's come to love in years.

 

Book Review

Wow! And that is for two reasons. First, the pairing in this book of the series is fascinating, with the dragon clan healer, Kristoff, and the wolf alpha’s eldest son, Garrett, finding out they are mates – except neither of them wants to be mated to the other and they each have more than excellent reasons. The second reason is related to the shocking event that took place at the end of the last book – well, I am happy to report that the author has, indeed, found a way to fix it. I am not going to be able to give any more details, since that would still be a spoiler, but rest assured, all is okay again on that front. At least almost well, there are still a few obstacles…. But it looks as if that secondary story line will still continue in parallel with the main one for a while, and I really like that idea.

As for this book’s main story, let me begin with Garrett. He is Conner’s eldest brother, and destined to become alpha of the Black Mountain pack one day. He had a mate over fifty years ago, but she died in childbirth as did Garrett’s baby. Garrett loved her a lot and is determined to never love anyone like that again. Never mind that he doesn’t think he will ever find another mate, and definitely not one of the dragons, so he was excluded from the peace treaty that means as many wolves as possible should mate with dragons. There is only one problem: as soon as he finally makes it up the mountain for his nephew’s birth, he falls in lust with the dragon healer. And no matter how determined he is to call it lust, not a mating, he cannot deny it forever. But when he finally gives in, it is not his proudest hour, as he completely misses all the signals from Kristoff and ends up giving him the mating bite without the dragon’s consent. Uh-oh! And even though he is a very proud alpha, he soon realizes that he will need all the help he can get from his younger, dragon-mated brothers to fix this mess!

Kristoff has his own set of issues. Not many dragons know this, but he was raped by alpha wolves a few years ago, and the one thing he never, ever wants to do is even have close contact with another alpha. The list of nasty names and nastier feelings he has for the overbearing idiots is long and detailed. When Garett comes to his room, clearly wanting sex, Kristoff is surprisingly tempted. He only goes ahead with it to prove to himself that he isn’t “broken” from his previous experiences, and he figures having sex again will be good for him. But when Garrett bites him and mates him he is livid. How dare he! Needless to say, he will not give in easily, no matter how considerate and romantic Garrett suddenly becomes.

If you like this series and want to know what’s next for the various dragons and wolves of Black Mountain, if you enjoy reading about two men who are super-determined not to find a mate but cannot help themselves when they meet, and if you’re looking for a read that is exciting, interesting, and contains some very hot bedroom action, then you will probably like this novella. As ever, I can’t wait for the next book!
