I’ve decided after reading Searing Ecstasy I’m a fickle pickle. Actually, I always knew I was fickle when it comes to heroes, but this just reinforces it. When I started this series I did the unthinkable and read the second book, Ecstasy Claimed, first. For awhile there Gregoire and Alyssa were my favourite couple. He was so bossy, protective and devoted I couldn’t help but love him. She was sweet but didn’t mind going head to head with him when they didn’t agree. These are some of my favourite traits for a hero and heroine. The other couples were great too, but just not AS bossy, protective and devoted. Noticed how I talk about couples and then only mentioned bossy, protective and devoted. I can’t help myself. I find most times if the hero sucks, the story will suck. Anyways, Greg and Aly were up there as my favourites…UNTIL…Bastian and Tasha rocked my world. I loved Bastian and Tasha, they were awesome together and their connection was beautiful. I think the other reason Binding Ecstasy worked so well for me was beside Bastian and Tasha’s mating we see Sander and Nasty (Nastia) lock eyes, feel the earth move and start growling at each other. Oooh, it’s the FRENZY!! We also see Drake having serious meltdowns because his destined mate is a thing of nightmares.
Delia’s character is broken when we see her in the beginning of Searing Ecstasy. She had been used in experiments by the evil Cyril. These experiments included mating her with a wolf shifter and with Cyril himself. Both matings left her with beasts fighting it out inside her wanting to take control. The beasts have also given her incredible powers. She is one STRONG chick. When Delia and Drake find out that they are fated mates, things don’t fall into place naturally. Drake’s dragon wants to claim her but with all the experiments done on her, Delia is scared she might hurt or kill him. This is devastating for the both of them. Their mating problems take an unexpected turn when a surprising source lends a helping hand.
I love this series and now I have the problem of a three-way tie for best in the series. Drake who has been a cranky pain in the butt is so sweet around Delia. The mating between Nasty and Sander (even though we didn’t get to witness it…peeved) was explained quite humorously. P’s Dad made me chuckle a few times with his arrogance and self-importance. Sirena is still exhausted, but I think things might improve for her soon. So now three Ecstasy’s have rocked my world. Gregoire, Bastian and Drake…get in the ring and fight it out. I’d like to see that….
Searing Ecstasy was filled with action, mystery and adventure. The sexy times were steamy and I loved that Delia was Drake’s Temptress. This series is one of my favourites and I can’t wait to read more.
Sascha you poor bugger. I wouldn’t wish him on you in a million years. Can’t wait for you to wake up and see who’s FRENZYING for you :-)
