Cassa Hawkins is a reporter who is trying to make amends for a terrible error in judgment eleven years ago. Back then she was married to an abusive guy who used her to destroy the Bengal tiger breed. It was thought the only survivor was Cabal St. Laurents who told her on the day of the massacre that he owned her and one day she would pay. So for 11 years Cassa has been living with the guilt and trying to support the breeds with positive public relations and telling the truth. The problem is on that fateful day Cassa and Cabal became mates. They both try to ignore it each going their own way and avoiding one another. Now the time for running has come to an end, a rougue breed is killing people and for some reason Cassa finds herself in the middle of the game without understanding the stakes.
Let me begin by saying that I did enjoy this book. What seemed weird was the Cabal from Tanners Scheme seemed different in this novel. I also think the plot where a couple has been mates for years and years and ignores one another is getting old. Cassa also was tiresome with her I must investigate this story to help the breeds. It was also irritating to watch her throw up the past in Cabal’s face. I guess this speaks to the part that is a bit disjointed for me, you have been jealous for over a decade and now is the first time you have something to say?? Another issue was in Tanners Scheme I thought it was stated rather clearly that Cabal did not have a mate and this is why he was such a playboy but now he screams he will kill anyone who touched Cassa but he left her alone and touched other women for a decade?? This does not make sense. Their relationship was also off it was all ‘damn you’ ‘you make me loose control’ and then they need to cuddle. Like why? Where is the conversation, laughter, intimacy?? Also why not more of Tanner?? Or even the other breed wives??
Moving on I liked the introduction to the new characters. This book dealt more with past vendettas so I am curious about what is going on with the council. There were some other curious hints about Rule and Lawe nice to see them back and of course we are leading into the story of Jonas which I am super excited about.
