Lash was stunned to discover that he wasn’t in the Netherworld getting tortured for eternity. Dumped in the Louisiana Bayou, he thinks he has gone and went to heaven…except he is already dead and damned. Enjoying the way the wind whispers in the air, cold ice water and the company of Teva, the woman who found him, naked and alone. Then Lash finds out the price for this freedom: corrupt Teva and introduce her to sinful pleasures or be back in the Netherworld, being tortured for eternity. Can he find a way to save the gentle Teva before Satan comes for his prize? The ultimate battle is coming and Teva is smack dab in the middle of a war that has been brewing for centuries. Can she save the one man who holds her heart for all infinity?

DARK SENTINEL is the next book in the Netherworld series and it was a delight to read about Lash and Teva. This reviewer was engrossed with their story from first page to the last. With captivating characters, sexual tension that will melt your panties and many twists and turns to keep you guessing what happens next. Ms. Lopez delves back into the world of Netherworld and this time we meet Lash, a condemned man who has spent centuries being tortured and never breaking. When he wakes up in the Bayou and discovers that he has a mission to do, Lash is caught like a deer in a headlight. Does he dare corrupt he one woman who gives him compassion and understanding, to follow the master who holds his soul, over the woman who holds his heart? With intriguing twists, Ms. Lopez gets to the heart of both Teva and Lash, their struggle to deny the sparks that are flying back and forth between them and to do the right thing, even if it means fighting hordes of demons, and the master himself.

Ms. Lopez does a great job delivering a complex story that will leave you breathless and wishing for more once the last page is read. I was clamoring for more on the Netherworld and with the wonderful new characters in DARK SENTINEL; I am hoping I won’t have to wait long for the next book in the Netherworld series.

If you enjoy some intriguing characters, magical elements, nasty demons and other baddies then grab DARK SENTINEL and get thrust in a place where demons rule and all shall perish at their whim.
