What a great new direction for a favorite author!
I love paranormal books and I love NR Walker – so this was an excellent combination!
Since Alec and Cronin are fated lovers – another tick on my box of likes – we get to see the “insta-attraction” that makes vampire/shifter books so compelling.
In the nature of NR Walker books, I know that there will be more “lovey dovey” moments in the sequel – so I am holding off judging the overall “feels” for now.
Suffice it to say that this book sets up the back-story and puts our two MCs together and (I expect) book two will wrap up their love story and give us the ooey gooey happy ending I know NR Walker delivers.

What a great team are NR and Joel! It would take someone of Joel’s immense talent to voice all these widely different characters and he does so very well. He’s not only a gifted "mimic" (someone with an ear for accents and able to reproduce them) but he’s also a gifted voice "actor" (able to use the right timing, inflection and emotion to help portray the words he’s reading). I feel like I run out of superlatives when I write a Joel review, but really, he makes me want to listen to books that I might otherwise avoid. And since this is a book I already enjoyed, you can only imagine what a great pairing this is.
HIGHLY recommended!
