Lacey Szdoka stays busy as the hyena queen, but after her fiancé’s death, nothing seems to matter. She wants to finish off the evil pack outside the city, hunt down the mastermind behind their dark crimes, and drag the hyena clan into legitimacy. Even the grinning Nick, with his smooth pick-up lines and bad boy attitude, isn't enough to distract her from her duty. Until he claims to be her mate, which is impossible -- her mate is already dead.
Nick prefers life as a lone wolf until Lacey walks into his life. His last mission, to free his employer and finally kill the man behind all the crimes in the city, should have been a piece of cake. Instead, he finds himself dealing with witches and sorcerers and an ill-tempered leprechaun, and fighting to convince Lacey that he's her mate. As they attempt to free the victims trapped in between worlds, old enemies return to finish what they started. Nick will give anything to keep Lacey safe, including his own life.
Lacey must face an unnerving choice: stay on as the hyena queen and die young, or do what has never been done before -- abdicate, walk away, and start life over. She aches to break free and find out what adventures the world holds, but can she really walk away from her family and responsibility? Can she trust Nick when he promises the world?
The problem with writing a series is after you give everyone their individual book, you have to tie up all the loose ends. Add in a climactic fight scene and you have a long draggy story.
I love the City Shifters Series. They are so much fun to read and are packed with emotion and danger and heat. I love that we see a resolution to the many bad guys from throughout the Pride and the Den series...finally. I highly recommend this series to anyone who enjoys paranormal romance books with a ton of heat and danger and emotion. However, I highly recommend that these books be read in order of publication so you get the best experience possible.
Was happy to read this story it tied all the loose ends. Loved the storyline of Nick and Lacey romance and how it turn out. All the characters from other books were in this book. Got to read about old characters and some new ones. Great story. Best book in the series, that's why I gave it 5 stars..
So! Guys know their mates. They have to convince their mates that they are their faithed mates. That lore is universal. But why is that? I like the ending. Wish there was more to this entangled series
If you want the full story then you must first start with the trilogy the Chase family of lions !You get to know the names of the characters and believe me you will not be disappointed!
