    About this audiobook

    Hugh and his men are faced with fighting creatures only thought to live in legend but which have been brought to Earth by evil bent on annihilating all the realms. That is Hugh's life-and he loves it. At least he did until he found himself staring into the angelic, innocent face of Lady Mina of Stone Crest.

    In all the time he has led the Shields Hugh has trusted his instinct to keep his men alive, yet now he doesn't know what to believe. Everything points to Mina as the evil summoning the creatures, but she proclaims her innocence. He should be able to see through her lies, if she is indeed lying, but his attraction to her blinds him to even that. The last time he found myself so drawn to a woman, it nearly cost him the lives of his men. Hugh cannot allow that to happen again. He won't allow that to happen again. Yet every time she looks at him, begging him with those blue-green eyes to believe her, he finds himself sinking further under her spell. Her mouth is a temptation mortal men will never know, and her love will either bring him the peace he thought he'd never find-or the death he's managed, thus far, to avoid.

      As a first-time reader of this series, I felt a lot was missing in terms of the back story which may have been helped by having an epilogue that linked the two series together. I'm sure people who have read the series this is a spin-off of, may have been able to follow easily since they were familiar with the background of the Sheilds and their secondary characters. As a first in series, I felt this book tended to drag a bit. The books started out great but then the pace just dropped and seemed to get caught up in non-issues. Hugh to me, seemed overly suspicious of Mina, even though his attraction to her was clear. Her sister on the other hand my antennae clicking she was so obviously suspicious but none of the Shields considered so. But all in all, I'd say that this book had enough for me to keep on reading and even checking out the other books in the series so for me that's potential.Advance Review Copy provided for voluntary review consideration.
