Synopsis:
It’s scary what a smile can hide.
Remmus conceals his horrific past behind a veil of charm, loyalty, and strength. When his unique expertise lands him at the center of a dangerous mission, he is forced to partner with a werewolf beta who despises him. Remmus has never met a more captivating woman, but his future is far from secure. As his mind begins to unravel, the secret he harbors risks ruining him forever.
Poisoned by betrayal, Ava has loathed Raeths for centuries. She detests Remmus’ presence in her den, but the Raeth intrigues her wolf. As hatred slowly dissolves into desire, Ava will either live for today or let the past dictate her destiny.
Together, they must discover a way to tear down their enemy from within and secure a victory for the immortal world. When fate ties them together, the truth will either set them free—or destroy them both.
My Review: 5 Stars
A Raeth and a Werewolf. Both with traumatic pasts. Both searching for something, anything to free them from the horrors of their childhoods. Both trying to regain all that they've lost. Both desperately needing the love of each other before it's too late.
Speechless. I am speechless. Where do I even start to tell you all about the journey of Remmus and Ava? Broken. Wrecked. Shattered. Betrayal. Pain. Tears. Traumatic. Unconditional love. Forgiveness. Laughter. Redemption. Family. Trust. Strength. Heartachingly beautiful. Those words. All those words are just part of what made their journey unforgettable and worth every single tear I shed for them. I'm not going to sugarcoat it, this journey was definitely not an easy one to get through.
Remmus and Ava will forever hold a special place in my heart. My heart literally broke into a million pieces for them, and was slowly put back together, bit by bit, as amends were made, and their love grew. After all these two have been through, they desperately needed a HEA, and the icing on the cake was they found it with each other.
I have been procrastinating this series because the closer I get to the end, the worse it's going to be. I've known this for months now. It has taken me 11 weeks to even pick up this book. But once I picked it up, there was no going back. I was hooked. Am I going to pick up the next book in the series right away? I have no clue. I'm still reeling from all things Remmus and Ava.
Ms. Hawke is extremely talented when it comes to writing. I am in awe of the worlds she can create and the unique twists and turns she throws into her books. Even though I know she's going to rip my heart out, shatter it into a million pieces, stomp on it for good measure, and do a little happy dance at my pain, she's still a favorite of mine. If you haven't read any of her books, I highly recommend you give them a try! You won't regret it.
And of course I can't forget my casting. *dreamy sigh* I just adore these two!
