This is book two of the Their Reaper series and the main character is a new reaper Jules, who has been finding all of her good work being undone by fellow and more experienced reaper Frederick. She tried to kill him and had her neighbours, Ajax who is a god, Connor a rogue wolf shifter without a pack and Brad a vampire, help her to bury him. She thought she had killed him and she even chopped his head off before burying him, but he turns back up and makes it plain to her that reapers aren’t easy to kill! He knows that somehow she has been managing to heal some patients, in her job as an alternative healer in the local hospital where Brad and Connor also work, as well as her reaper boss, Drake. He has been going behind her to reap most of her patients she has healed, in his words, to ensure the balance is kept! She can’t tell any of her three guys what she actually is, but two of them have finally revealed what they are to her. Brad and Connor haven’t managed to get her in bed yet, only Ajax and that was with the other two watching them! Both are keen to have dates with her, but theta work at the hospital takes a lot of their time.
Trouble has come to town, in one instance Brad gets pulled over by a ghost and told of an evil creature, they realise later is an Ankou, that has killed loads of them and they are unable to move on. In another, Ajax hears of a large group of hunters coming to town, which would put Brad in danger. Connor gets called to a supernatural ambulance admission of the local alpha wolf shifter, who has not healed after a battle for his position. Jules uses her ability to heal on the alpha, but finds out he has been poisoned by something supernatural that she has no idea where it came from. If the Ankou has tied itself to the hospital, it will keep killing people before their time and in horribly, painful ways! It is there to keep the balance between life and death, something Jules has been upsetting. No one knows why she can heal as well as kill. It is not something any other reaper seems able to do. But most have their past lives removed from their memories, whilst Jules kept the details of her past life with her and her humanity as well. She is still on probation as such and her lack of following orders has already been reported to the reaper council and she won’t like what they might do to her if she doesn’t follow the rules and fulfil her quota. If the alpha dies, then both Connor and a bitten wolf and nurse Aurora, will be in danger, as the next in line Riggs is an a***ole and would cast them out of the protection of the pack and send his men after them. This would break up the three men Ajax, Connor and Brad who have been best friends, lived and worked together for years. All three of the men are facing different challenges, as is Jules, with more trouble coming their way than they could ever have expected. They will have to work together to support each other and fight for what is right and for what they believe in! A dangerous time and it isn’t over yet, but a long shot. I can’t wait to see what they will get up to in the next book and what role Frederick may have, ally or foe? I received an ARC copy of this book from BookSprout and I have freely given my own opinion of the book above.
