Paranormal Romance published by Lyrical Press 08 Jun 21
Benjamin Reese takes one look at Karma and his mating mark is invoked – she’s his mate and a prisoner in his enemy’s stronghold. Nothing will hold him back from venturing once again into the maw of the lion to rescue his mate. But….
Karma has lived for so long that she’s forgotten her origins for the most part. She was briefly mated, but her mate died and she’s lived ever since in the Kurjan stronghold, treated like a servant. She’s caught the eye of one of the leaders of her people, who is determined to possess her and sire strong sons with her. When Benjamin comes to rescue her, she escapes with him so that her mating marks from her first mating can be removed, using technology that Benjamin’s people possess. She’s also embedded with spyware that allows her to see and hear what’s happening in Ben’s environment.
Life, however, is rarely simple. What Karma sees is so far from the Kool-Aid that she’s been fed by the Kurjans that she wishes she could make her home with the immortal guardians. However, she has two children whom she cares for and who are hostage for her good behavior and guaranteed return. The story is an interesting mix of prophecies and a vast cast of characters. While I have not read the earlier books in the series and was able to follow along with this story, I believe I might have enjoyed this much more if I could have understood some of the character references, etc.
All in all, this is a fast-paced action story which I enjoyed very much. I’m hooked. I want to see how it all will finally come together in the end.

Summary:
There’s no denying destiny . . .
For too long, Benjamin Reese has masked his deadly skills and temper with loyalty and humor. A vampire-demon hybrid, he fiercely protects his family, guards his brothers, and destroys the enemy without mercy. But when he discovers one fragile, beautiful blonde—a woman once mated to a Kurjan, no less—every primal instinct he has buried for centuries roars to life. With the mating mark she roused on his hand entwining their fates, no one will prevent him from keeping her safe and making her his, forever . . .Or desire . . .
Karma wishes she could remember her last name. Or if she even had one. All she has in this confusing new world is a desperate duty to save the innocent. That means destroying the dark, dangerous, and desirable Benjamin Reese and everything he loves—an impossible task even before his touch arouses a passionate hunger she can’t afford. She’s certain a deadly enemy watches her every move, but it’s not until Benny kisses her that she tastes true danger…
