Charlie
was kidnapped by his stepfather when he was eighteen because he’s a werewolf
and gay. He was abused and tortured for three years when he managed to escape
and get back to his mate Perry.
Perry,
pack alpha, has been missing his mate ever since he disappeared. When Jason, a
member of the pack, finds Charlie stuck in a bear-trap he rescues him and takes
him to Perry.
After a
long recovery Charlie is finally doing better and wants his mate to claim him,
but Perry keeps his distance. Charlie finds a listening ear with Jason, telling
him everything about his years of captivity and torture, not knowing Perry is
hearing the whole story too.
Perry is
shocked when he hears all that his mate has been through and finds help to
rescue all the other paranormals that are still being held captive.
Eventually,
it takes another pack member to get Perry to move along the relationship with
Charlie, even though he’s scared of hurting Charlie more than he already has
been.
The story
is the first one in a series and I liked the way the author is introducing pack
members. You get the feeling that they all have a story and I hope she will
write them all.
There is
a lot of angst and excitement in this story. I liked the whole atmosphere of
the book and the mention of other paranormals. The relationship between Charlie
and Perry is a struggle in the beginning, but develops very nicely. It’s
romantic but hot at the same time.
The only
thing I might say I didn’t like, is that it sometimes goes a bit fast from one
scene to the other. I would have loved an even slower and more detailed
romance. But I can’t wait for the next book in this series.
This
is not an endorsement of this book. This is an objective unbiased review.
