Awwww Mason, the werewolf king that constantly fights everything that's natural to him. He snacks on berries and hunts for pinecones, but that's enough to sate his appetite, when what he really wants is meat and something he craves even more, blood. Already having one mate who died, he believes there's no chance for another mate ... it just doesn't happen that way. But you can't deny when he sees Serenity, a vampire, for the first time his blood calls to her and vice versa.
Fighting against the fact that werewolves and vampires never mate, Mason fights so hard to keeps his distance. Serenity was found at the house's front gate, badly beaten and the need to be healed. And that's where Mason comes along, he's a healer. No matter how hard he tries to fight the pull towards Serenity, it's only a matter of time before the both of them give in.
Solitude used to be my peace, my...serenity. I jolted away from the counter as gasps fell from my mouth. Serenity. It was gone. My comfort in my loneliness was gone. Replaced with... Her.
And boy when they do, it's steammmmmmy. Who knew what grocery shopping could do to people ;-) That's what happens when you let things build up for so long, you'll be surprised with the fact that they don't give in earlier.
I loved that there was a bit of mystery to Mason and Serenity, we're constantly unraveling new things about these two that quite frankly surprised the heck out of me! But it worked out perfectly for this book and it flowed together quite nicely. Being a huge fan of the PNR genre, I appreciate it when the author adds their own personal touches to it creating a world where all immortals serve a purpose.
Every immortal has a created purpose. Wolves heal, we communicate with the stars. Vampires are better with their hands, able to seamlessly insert themselves in the human world and protect.
I'm such a fan of this series and Rachel Van Dyken, and she needs to do more PNR because they would be 1-clicks for me!
