This could have easily been a five if there had been a little more storyline enhancement--there were all these plans and then the big "surprise" and then instead of everyone wondering what is going on with the convenient "surprise" they run off and have mating heat sex. Ok, I understand you just can't stop that--or this is what I surmise from the two novels I have read so far...I just felt that a little more background into the other characters would have not come amiss. Still enjoyable--and heads over heels better than Coyote Mate, not that it wasn't good, just depressing. I am still trying to make my mind up about this series, it will probably take a couple of more examples before I decide. I read this book back when it first came out but have reread it so MANY times that I have lost count (just got finish reading it again).. This is one of my FAVORITES in the series. Love, love Mercury and Ria was great! I have loved almost all the "Breed" books by Ms. Leigh and always have trouble waiting for a new one. I believe that this is the 16th story in this series and they just seem to get better with age. If you love HOT (and I mean HOT) paranormal love stories you can't go wrong with this series..
