Book Blurb

Ryce Hunter has been mated to Saul for five years. He truly loves Saul. What he doesn't love is that every Friday, Saul goes into town to find some young stud to fool around with. In a bid to feel wanted, Ryce goes into town to find his own stud. What he finds is Cary, his other mate. Ryce is ecstatic. He feels that if Saul can't be happy with him, maybe Cary will come to love him instead.

Cary is a tri-omega mate and knows it. Finding Ryce is a dream come true. When Ryce tries to claim him, Cary says no. He knows that he has to have two mates or he will die. Ryce assures Cary that his other mate is Saul. Assuming both of his mates have been found, Cary allows Ryce to claim him. But what happens when Saul refuses to claim Cary?

But all is not as it seems. Saul is driven to protect his mates at any cost, including sacrificing his own happiness.

 

Book Review

I will admit to being a little wary before starting this fourth book in the Tri-Omega Mates series. I had read the blurb and, frankly, I wasn't very impressed by Saul and his willingness to cheat on his mate. I didn't even know the characters yet and I was angry. I'm sure you can understand how I felt.

Poor Ryce has been dealing with Saul going out every Friday night to get himself a little "young thing" leaving Ryce feeling betrayed and devastated. Ryce truly feels that he needs Saul far more than Saul needs him so he makes the decision to go find his own Friday night hook-up. What he finds is way more than a casual hook-up. He finds Cary, a gorgeous Tri-omega, and Ryce's other mate. Ryce claims him and takes him to wait for Saul to return and claim Cary also. Well, Saul comes home and finds Ryce in bed, asleep, with Cary and Saul freaks out. He says horrible, mean things to Cary resulting in Cary taking off, Ryce finds out, and he and Saul come to blows. Wow - it was pretty drama queen there for a bit.

Interestingly enough, Saul has some major baggage and secrets that he's never shared with Ryce in the five years they've been mated. Yeah, I know, it sounded pretty darn selfish to me, too, but it's a pretty big secret and Saul is convinced he'll lose Ryce over it. Of course, silly man that he is, it doesn't seem to occur to him that he'll lose Ryce anyway over the Friday night "playthings"!

I ended up really liking this story and, in fact, I almost think they're getting progressively better. If you like shifters, hot men, hotter sex, and intrigue then this is the book for you!
