⭐⭐⭐⭐ Was I hooked by that book? Yes, lots of action, intrigue, sexual tension, explosions, and witty banter made for a great read that I couldn’t put down.

BLURB

Sam and Honor meet when Sam finds himself in an interrogation room at Homeland Security with the intriguing Honor asking the questions. Sam is in hot water because he has recently started setting off explosions, a big no-no with the government. Presumably this new ability is linked to his role as Keeper of the place where the Seven is supposed to perform their ritual to rid the world of Ulric once and for all. Soon Honor finds herself tied to Sam trying to find a way to control his new pyrotechnic-ness.

MY THOUGTHS

On a sidenote, I want to say I love the titles of the books in this series, well, mostly the later ones dealing with the mysterious Seven.

Sam has always been a bit of a mystery up until now. We didn’t know much about him, other than he is Zane’s and Logan’s brother and he seems really sweet. But his world was thrown upside down when he took on the role of Keeper and developed scary new powers. And Sam continued to be sweet, but ultimately, he was just like the others of his kind, a possessive control freak. I have a bit of a love-hate feeling towards this character trait. Depends on how I feel on a specific day, I guess.

I loved that Honor had significant power and that she had the chance to use it in meaningful ways. Nessa and Bear played a big part of the story, and it was great seeing them again. Hope is a bit older now. She is very knowledgeable, but still quite naïve.

The plot thickened, or rather, it heated up, way up. We found out more about Ulric and the ritual and I loved seeing everyone work together. Even Dage and his brothers seemed a bit more open to the Seven. Only very slightly, mind you. There were more questions than answers left at the end. I’m definitely not stopping here.

This is a great series if you like paranormal and bigger-than-life characters. But I would recommend you read them in order. Things will make more sense that way.

Thank you to Netgalley for providing me with a copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
