by Gabrielle Evans

[Siren LoveXtreme Forever Erotic Fantasy Menage Romance, M/M/M/M/M/M/M/M, demons, BDSM, spanking, sex toys] It's not that Onyx feels sorry for himself. He just doesn't know where he fits into their unconventional relationship. Everyone has someone who complements them—everyone except him. He'd hoped Echo would be his saving grace, but he'll have to reveal more of himself than he's ready to if he hopes to win his mate's trust. Every day Echo watches Onyx struggle, and it breaks his heart. He wants to be everything the warrior needs, but when he discovers Onyx's secret, it won't be easy to overcome his fears and place himself at the demon's mercy. If he hopes to fully commit to his men, though, it's time to let go of the past. When the new moon brings with it their fiercest enemy yet, Onyx isn't worried. His love for Echo far outweighs his fear. Echo is his miracle, and he'd do anything to protect his mate. Anything. NOTE!

This book started off on Echo's housemates had been kidnapped.So he tried to find a way to save them,then he discovered that vampires were behind this plan.
Onyx liked to play D/s.He was convinced Echo couldn't fit for his fantasies, actually it's not like that, hence Echo tried so hard to be that guy for him.
Although the sex scenes were extremely hot,but I felt a bit off like nothing happened.

I know my problem with this book.The previous ones always focus on the war against Ares, this one doesn't like those, because of the issues Echo and his lovers tried to solve not related to their task on the new moon at all.

This seventh volume, as expected, focuses on Onyx and Echo’s relationship. For once, the majority of the book isn’t concerned with the demon’s test in the war against Ares. Instead, the focus is firmly on Onyx and his needs, how they relate to Echo and the other mates, as well as the entire building group dynamic between all eight men and their ‘houseguests.

Onyx has always felt like the odd demon out. He doesn’t want to admit it, but that has made him feel isolated on occasion. Even though the others do their best to give him what he needs, none of them depend on submitting like Onyx depends on dominating. Until Echo comes along and is able to admit that he doesn’t only submit to make Onyx happy, but actually has a need that is the complement to Onyx’s.

Through these two battling it out as well as some pretty scary outside intrusions and events, it becomes clear that this is no longer just about individual demons getting tested. The whole group is being challenged and scrutinized – as a group. They will either be found wanting or worthy at the end of it. With only one more ‘individual test’ to go, the final war is now getting uncomfortably close. I can’t wait for the final two volumes.

I liked it :)

It was more serious - so not as funny as the others.

I also felt that this story was 70% Onyx and 30% Myst. I would have liked to of seen a bit more time spent on Onyx's change of heart. One second he was OMG Im so alienated and the next everything was fine...I thought there could of been a bit more angst.

Over all I am still really enjoying the series

Me sigue agradando cómo se va enredando mas la trama; aunque las resoluciones fue muy rápido.

WTH? Where did this bdsm pop up from? *bewildered* Don't get me wrong, I like bdsm stories. But here it just comes out of the blue. Give us a little hint, a little foreshadowing. You can't just spring this on us.

The thing is it felt like this was just randomly thrown in. There needed to be some signs of Onyx's need to dominate before. And there really needed to be some sign of Echo's need to submit. Because suddenly after one "scene" Echo "needs" to be dominated. He just "has to be able to give up control sometimes".

*raised eyebrow*

Uh-huh.

It gave me the feeling that it was just thrown in there to give Onyx his "issue" and I felt like we were getting the bdsm company line or something. The over-used line of "I just need to give up control sometimes." I'm not saying the sentiment isn't a realistic one, just the dialogue used as they discussed it was rather trite. I had a very hard time taking this aspect of the book/series seriously.

typical gabrielle evans serial romance. nothing fantastic, nothing so bad it can't be finished. what is typical gabrielle evans? imagine a shorter harlequin romance but with no t&a (see, i was going to write no surprise pregnancies, but... yeah.).

out of sheer laziness, i will be using this as my template for all books by :
sunny day
lynn hagen
stormy glenn
scarlett hyacinth
carol lynne
gabrielle evans

unless otherwise noted. i'd apologize, but i'm not sorry. i figure it's about as much time as they put into their books. dammit! well, i made it all the way to the end being rather moderate in my assessment. that's a win.

just ok, didn't care for the bdsm all of sudden now, taking over the story.
And they still have not helped the others held in the lab that started in book One. Maybe if Echo kept his pants on long enough they might be able to help them, like they say they want to.
(I have found that I can't read them back to back in one sitting, cause Echo and the others get on my nerves)

Getting darker preparing for the end. Actually as I think about it, the sex and the fights are getting darker, harder and bloody, but the overall story arc didn't really seem to move at all. It feels the the author is just continually putting a new dress on the same plot device.

First read October, 2011. Reread in March 2016.
Still cheesy, but somehow likable.

[Miralinda · Rating 4 out of 5]

7 демонов и один маленький Эхо. Тут еще и БДСМ чуток присутствует. Начинает раздражать серия из-за того, что практически ничего не происходит, кроме трынь-трынь. Можно было все в одну книгу уместить.
