Pendragon Gargoyles #3
Primal Attraction
He'll stop at nothing to claim her... If she doesn't kill him first.
A lethal huntress, Sorcha lives to track and eliminate rogue immortals-until her latest assignment turns out to be a sexy, gargoyle shape-shifter. From the start she's shaken by the lust his touch awakens inside her. Not only that, but the cat is convinced she's his mate, and for the first time, she's unable to kill her target. Still mourning the loss of his mate,
Cale is stunned to find Sorcha alive. Yet the woman he aches to possess doesn't recognize him and is after the only thing that will save his brother-a mystical weapon that will lead to Excalibur. Determined to protect his family and reclaim his mate, Cale ruthlessly takes advantage of Sorcha's one weakness-her desire for him. Desire that could unlock their past...or cause him to lose her all over again.

Sorcha’s latest assignment is pretty straight forward – hunt down Cale Callaghan, a shapeshifting gargoyle, retrieve the dagger he has, and kill him. This mission is not unlike others she has been assigned as a huntress. Rhiannon, Scorcha’s “boss,” and King Arthur’s mother needs the dagger along with five others, which would then lead to Excalibur for a chance at bringing Arthur back to life.
Complications arise when Cale gets a look at Sorcha and can’t believe his eyes. His mate, his true love, one he saw die eighty years ago is standing right in front of him. Problem is, Sorcha has absolutely no memory of him. Rhiannon cleanses the memories of the immortals in her charge every hundred years so they don’t gain strength to rise up against her.
Cale needs the dagger to free his brother from a curse that has him permanently in his gargoyle stone form. Sorcha being pressured by Rhiannon to finish the job is in a bind. Although she doesn’t remember Cale, her heart does, and when Cale tells her painstaking memories of their past and time together, her heart starts to beat for Cale – and Sorcha loyalties and love is put to the test.
I had never heard of Primal Attraction until Sydney Somers asked for me to review it and it turns out I have been missing out on a darn good book. Sydney Somers does an excellent job setting up a pretty complicated world – weaving in the tale of King Arthur, shapeshifters running amok, and a very erotic love story.
I enjoyed the twists and turns of the complex love Sorcha and Cale have for each other. Cale belongs to the cat of the gargoyle clan, which means he can shift into a cat at will, and when the sun shines he needs to take his gargoyle stone form. It provides explosive dynamics to have Cale so in love with Sorcha, and her to have no idea who he is. It is not just the human in love, but his cat has claimed her as a mate, which adds an extra dynamic to their relationship. Cale pretty much has no choice but to figure out a way to win her heart back.
I love that Cale has the alpha protective thing going on with his cat always coming to the surface, but he is not one of those overbearing, colder, alphas. He is pretty light hearted (except when in comes to Sorcha’s safety) and he has many funny moments. Also thrown in the mix is Sorcha’s best friend and fellow Huntress Nessa who is extremely dry and sarcastic and will have you laughing throughout the book.
The biggest sticking point I have is many times Sorcha gives into the physical call to Cale, and as soon as they are done sexin’ each other up, she pushes away and decides she can’t trust him. I can understand doing that once or twice, but it is constant throughout the book. She trusts him enough when they are in the midst of sex not to hurt her, but as soon as it ends, the trust ends, and she is back in huntress defensive mode. There are also a few times in the book where big confrontations are skipped – Cale of Sorcha go running off to fight the enemy, but as the reader we only see the result, not the battle and I kind of felt like we missed out.
Otherwise, Primal Attraction is a really great read. There are plenty of love scenes with a very possessive “cat” and a very alpha female. It leads to quite the passion in the bedroom. I really enjoyed this one and the ending leaves a big opening for the next book.

Primal Attraction is the second book in Sydney Somers ‘Pendragon Gargoyles’ series. A series filled with shaprshifters, fairies, dragons, wraiths, huntresses, goddesses and so much more. I for one am really enjoying it.
In book one, Primal Hunger, we quickly met Cale. But then, he vanished. *queue spooky music* And by the end of the book…we still don’t know what happened to him. Well, Primal Attraction is all about where he was, who he was with and why.
Cale was once mated to Sorcha. Eighty years ago, she died right before his eyes. A gruesome death that still haunts him. (There was a beheading involved. Yeah…not pretty.) All the while, Cale’s brother Cian has been cursed and is permanently set in his stone form. But a mystical dagger can help him. Cale has the dagger, but isn’t the only one who desires it. A huntress is sent after him to recover it. Now you see, huntresses are dangerous women and when you come face to face with one, you rarely leave alive. Cale should fear this huntress who faces him now – he normally would – but he doesn’t. Why? Because the huntress is Sorcha. Yeah, WTF right?!
As a huntress, Sorcha’s memory must be cleansed every 100 years. She has so recollection of Cale or of their mating. But that is not going to get in his way. He is determined to help her remember what they meant to each other and how strong their bond was. Socha may not remember Cale, but her body seems to have committed him to memory. There are some pretty steamy scenes in this book, let me tell you! Fun and steamy scenes.
I liked how Cale and Sorcha’s relationship was handled in this book. It could very easily have been cheesy with the whole “I don’t remember you but you remember me” scenario. Sydney brought much emotion and passion to this book. The characters were great to read. Their chemistry is wonderful and how their HEA was written was actually not predictable! Just when you think you’ve figured out their path you are left scratching your head.
I like the Pendragon World very much. It’s modern and credible but with a touch of whimsy. And I like how the immortal characters can go from their world to ours. I also find the supporting characters to be delightful. I especially liked Sorcha’s best friend Nessa. She’s fun and giggle worthy.
I plan to continue on with this series. The stories are entertaining, the world strong and the characters fun to read. There’s a lot a good stuff in these novellas. Primal Pleasure is the next book and it’s available now.

When Your Past Catches Up with You
Being a Huntress has its perks, but are they worth losing the love of your life? Outstanding story, with absolutely wonderful characters. The characters give you depth and meat of the story. I enjoyed the interactions between the main characters as well as Sorcha's interactions with her best friend Nessa. I recommend this to lovers of Mystical and Fantasy Romance.

Cale lost his mate decades ago, he watched her die in battle, unable to get to her in time. He will mourn her loss for eternity. Sorcha is a human turned lethal huntress in exchange for immortality. To keep her mind on her job, her memories are wiped clean every one hundred years. She is assigned to slay an immortal rogue gargoyle who has stolen a prized and sought after ancient artifact. Sorcha finds her prey and prepares to end his immortal life, but something stirs within her. Cale is stunned to find his mate alive, and trying to kill him, but she has no memory of their life together, still, there is a carnal pull that cannot be denied. Will Sorcha be able to kill this handsome gargoyle who she can’t seem to resist? Can Cale prove to Sorcha he is her mate?
Primal Attraction by Sydney Somers, the lady with the scorching hot pen is hot! The tension between the two main characters is off the charts, whether they are arguing, bantering, or giving in to their carnal attractions, the moments of quiet are few and far between in this fast-paced tale. Sorcha is strong, but something is missing in her life, is it Cale? Is this why she is so prickly about everything? Cale is often over-bearing, is it a part of his alpha nature? These two are like the clash of the Titans both out of bed and between the sheets. Their personalities didn’t seem to fit the lost love theme. Of course, Rhiannon may have something to do with that.
I do wish there were more story, there is a lot to cover, so much untold, but the chemistry between these two characters seems to take up a large amount of the story. Is it because they have history, a familiarity from their past? A wonderful and solid addition to the Pendragon Gargoyle series, just not my favorite.

Nice story
All the completely related - Read in order. Long story arc related to a special dagger and a family of supernaturals of all kinds. Sexy and violent, the stories are full of adventure and fun interactions as the overall story is advanced in each couple's romance. Enjoyable.

This series is out of the norm for me, but I have to say I am hooked. Cale and Sorcha’s story is sexy, exciting and at times scary. I could keep reading these books for a long time. Hope author plans on more.

Good read
Intense and action packed, my favorite kind of read. Loved Sorcha she is defiantly a kick butt girl and her character was great. I think I will read on to the next brother's story.

More Meat, More Satisfaction
Eighty years ago, Cale watched his mate die at the end of a wraith's blade. For eighty years he's mourned that loss, until one night a goddess' huntress comes for his head, branding him a traitor to Avalon and shooting poisoned tipped arrows at him to put him down. Cale doesn't defend himself. He can't even run from the threat. All he can do is stare as life as he thought he knew it alters in front of his eyes. The fierce huntress, the goddess Rhiannon's immortal servant, is Sorcha. His mate. And from the wicked way she's kicking his butt, it's obvious she has no memory of him at all.
He's got to get through to her. Has to get her memory back. The cat in him is roaring for his mate. Now all he has to do is convince a dedicated warrior on a goddess' mission to not make him all slicey and dicey, hold onto the dagger she's come to collect so he can save his brother, and live happily ever after. Piece of...really difficult cake.
This second entry in the Pendragon Gargoyles series is a bit more robust than its predecessor, Primal Hunger, while maintaining the level of skilled narrative and originality of mythos. My largest complaint with Primal Hunger, in fact, was that it wasn't long enough and it focused too much on the sexual relationship of the romance and not enough on the surrounding plot. I'm pleased to say that wasn't the case here. Somers gives the reader a much more balanced story that fleshes out the world a bit more and gives us a greater understanding of the series arc while offering up Sorcha and Cale's romance alongside it.
I thought Sorcha and Cale were fun characters to spend time with, and I'm really starting to enjoy Sydney Somers' writing style and her ability to create strong characters with flaws, peccadilloes, and insecurities in a realistic way that appeals when mixed with some quick witted dialogue and zippy repartee. And she does angsty drama pretty well, too.
Again, though, I found myself wishing for a longer story. There were several instances where scenes jumped in time and left out scenes that didn't directly include Sorcha and Cale - like Cale's pursuit of the sorceress to help with the spell to free his brother and Sorcha's search for him when he'd disappeared without warning that, had they been included, would have added depth and dimension to the plot and increased the substance of the tale. I also thought the exposition and explanation in this book didn't quite go as far as it could have describing the world, nor was it as detailed as I would've preferred. I would have liked a more comprehensive exploration of Rhiannon and her huntresses, too. I'll freely admit I'm greedy, but I recognize Somers' ability to create an original backstory with imaginative mythology surrounding fantastic creatures and I want to see that realized in a full, rich, vibrant novel that widens the scope of the series and further increases my enjoyment of it. Still have no complaints about the very erotic and emotional physical relationship between Sorcha and Cale. Somers doesn't disappoint in any way in that area.
I'm still hoping for more with the next in the series, Primal Seduction, but like I said for the previous book, I very much enjoyed what this book is...I just wish it was a bit more.

Sorcha is an immortal huntress for the goddess Rhiannon. She is blessed with immortal strength and powers but it comes with the price of losing her memories every 100 years. She is cool, collected, and intimidating…. until she is assigned with killing a shape-shifter named Cale.
Cale is a shape-shifting gargoyle. His mate was killed 80 years ago and his brother is forever trapped in stone unless he can use a magical dagger to release him. This same magical dagger has a goddess and her huntress set on killing him. His world stands still when he comes face to face with the huntress set on taking his head off his body, Sorcha, his mate.
Now before you start thinking…. shape shifting gargoyles? what the heck? Let me explain. Sydney Somers has created a fun new paranormal world set in the world of Camelot. The Goddesses Rhiannon and Morgana wrestle for control over this supernatural world, both looking for Excalibur for very different reasons. The shape shifters in this world shift to animal form like any other shifter, but they are cursed to shift to stone gargoyles during the daylight hours.
I thoroughly enjoyed all the characters in this story, including Sorcha’s friend and fellow huntress Nessa. Even more than the characters tho, I enjoyed the romance. Cale was steadfast and strong in his belief that Sorcha was his mate and that he could convince her of it. He was passionate, strong, dominating, yet trusting. Sorcha wanted desperately to deny she was his mate but couldn’t deny the effect he had on her heart or body. The emotional chemistry between them was smoldering and the physical chemistry was sizzling hot.
My only disappointment was that this book wasn’t long enough to give do the story justice. The action plot wasn’t fleshed out enough in more than one spot and left me wanting more. The ending felt incomplete as the conflicts surrounding Cale’s brother were glossed over and the reader is left with only a vague idea of what happened.
Primal Attraction is a great read for paranormal romance lovers everywhere. Fans of Ilona Andrews will love the stubborn and witty character interactions while fans of Kresley Cole will fan themselves at the sizzling passion. I will be picking up the first book in this series and look forward to more!

After finishing PRIMAL HUNGER (my thoughts here), I decided to dive straight into PRIMAL ATTRACTION. Cale doesn’t have a lot of page time in PRIMAL HUNGER since he disappears part way through — and now we know why! I don’t often find books that take place simultaneously (at least for part) with other novels in the series so it’s an interesting development. In fact, the only other series with something similar is Kris DeLake’s Assassins In Love series, which I’ve talked about before (here and here). It’s a neat device and I enjoyed having the missing information filled in, while watching Cale and Sorcha fall for each other (again).
Side note: I feel like the name Sorcha keeps coming up in books I’ve been reading lately. There’s this one, plus Philippa Ballantine’s Order of the Geist series and P. J. Schnyder’s SING FOR THE DEAD. I realize three characters don’t make it a common name but it feels like they’re coming out of the woodwork for me these days. :)
I found Cale and Sorcha’s relationship really interesting because it’s not your typically meet-cute-and-fall-in-love story. Cale’s already in love with her, and Sorcha used to be in love with him but doesn’t remember it because of her deal with Rhiannon, which involves having her memories erased once a century. Cale spends PRIMAL ATTRACTION trying to help Sorcha remember/convince her that their love was real and Sorcha spends the novel conflicted between her duty and her attraction to Cale. According to her information, Cale has stolen a dagger that Rhiannon wants but she doesn’t have the full picture — that he needs the dagger to free his brother from a curse. It’s a genuine conflict that places Sorcha in an awful position, which makes for an engaging read. Plus the two of them have some insane chemistry so the sexy scenes are super sexy! And Cale and Sorcha do end up together, it’s not the tidiest ribbon. It’s a tidy solution but it’s not so pat that it’s ridiculous.
With PRIMAL ATTRACTION, I’m sure that Somers’ Pendragon Gargoyles series is definitely one to keep up with. There are two more books available now and I plan to dive into them in the near future.

The second installment of the Pendragon Gargoyles series is red-hot! It seemed like every time I turned a page someone was getting it on. This novella is lighter on the story-side of things than the first book. I was a little disappointed because the plot is intriguing but this tale is still a nice, light read. Primal Attraction will get you turned on and you'll stay that way until the end!
Sorcha and Cale are reunited after nearly a century apart. Cale thought she was dead and she doesn't remember him. Quite the pickle! You can probably guess how such an encounter would play out... Cale can't believe his eyes while Sorcha is mystified as to why this cat shifter is all up in her personal space. To make things even worse, Sorcha is a huntress and her current target is Cale. While he's trying to jump her bones she's trying to kill him. Talk about mixed messages!
My favorite element in this novella is the primal "mate" instinct that drives the two main characters. The hopeless romantic in me wants to believe that we all have a special someone who we're destined to be with. That their pull is stronger than gravity. Cale and Sorcha's relationship illustrates this theory to a tee. Even though her mind doesn't know him, her body recognizes him. Kinda corny but it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
When Cale and Sorcha aren't going at it between the sheets there's still a decent amount of action unfolding. Even though most of the fights seem to end in bed. There's an alley encounter that's particularly toe curling. I highly recommend it! On the downside, I thought Sorcha wasn't the best name choice. I had a hard time getting past it and as a result wasn't a big fan of her as a character. Shallow much? Maybe.
Primal Attraction wasn't as good as the first installment but still a nice diversion. This novella is great if you want a small vacation from reality. The sexual escapades are delicious. If your man's idea of foreplay falls short, try reading this first!

Sorcha is a Hunterss in the service of and loyal to the Goddess Rhianna. She job is to target any immortals that threaten to expose their existence to the human race. Now tasked to take out a gargoyle shape-shifter accused of treason, Sorcha has no idea that her past, a past that she cannot remember, is about to collide with her present, and may well change the course of her future.
For over 80 years, Cale has mourned the loss of his mate, the mate that was killed before his very eyes, the mate that he failed to protect. To say that he is shocked that not only is his dead mate standing before him, but she is trying to take him down would be an understatment. Realizing that the only way to try and stop her is to bargain for the dagger that will release his brother Cian from the stone that has trapped him for over a century. Now Cale is in a race against the clock to try and save his brother, while trying to remind Sorcha of the love that they shared.
This is the second book in the Pendragon Gargoyles Series, and it overlaps Primal Hunger. In this story, we meet up with Cale again and learn what happened to him after he disappeared. What I loved most about Sorcha and Cale's story is that is was about a second change at love, a second chance at rebuilding a life. Though Sorcha will never be able to remember her past with Cale, as here memories are wiped every 100 years, the connection between these two characters is indescribable. The pain that Cale had over losing Sorcha was so real that it leaps off the page and grabs you. The fear that Sorcha feels at knowing that she no matter how much she might want a life with Cale, it all seems so impossible makes you want to cry. But at the heart of it all is the way these characters grow through the story and have to learn to trust each other and themselves. The fights, the sparing and the insult slinging between these two was just as engaging as the love that they had for each other. Their chemistry is so HOT it burns up the pages of this story and leaves you breathlessly wanting more, more, more.

a great second book in the series.
This one follows Cale, The brother from the first book, Tristan.
Again, the background storyline is about Avalon and the daggers hidden and to find and to bring King Arthur back to finish the battle that started all those years ago.
But, as in the first book, the strongest storyline is about the Gargoyle in question finding his mate.
Cale's story isnt as straightforward as Tristans. His mate "died" 80 years ago...well, thats what he saw...
But here she is right in front of him....trying to kill him.
Sorcha is now an immortal huntress who under the goddess Rhiannon, is trained to be an assassin for traitors. Rhiannon sends her after Cale, telling her hes a traitor.
Not smooth sailing, Sorcha as a huntress has her memories erased every 100 years, so she cant remember Cale. Its up to him to convince her, and show her that theyre mates.
Sorcha has to fight with the inner huntress that should have killed him the instant she saw him as directed, and is failing this, and with her growing feelings for Cale.
Im really enjoying these books. Theyre not too heavy. The steamy scenes are written well and not crude, and has humour in them that has you smiling along.
Im already on the next book and again, totally enjoying it!
As a paranormal fan, this hits all the right keys with me - shifters, romance, strong storylines (although id like a bit more of the background Avalon story to start moving along now. Two books later and they still only have one of the six daggers that are needed - but this makes me think that the author has more than the four books already out in mind - which im more than happy with if they carry on being written in the same fashion!), humour, likeable characters, and just fun to read!

This past weekend I got back into the world of Avalon and gargoyles, and it was great. Sydney Somers does a fantastic job working through the siblings, and this book focuses on Cale Callaghan. Now, if you've read any of the series, you know he is the brother who lost his mate nearly a century ago and just hasn't been the same.
Well guess what - that's Sorcha, and she is very much alive. And to top it all off is that she has no clue who he is, other than her target given to her by the goddess Rhiannon. But of course Cale recognizes her and doesn't mind a challenge. So he sets forward to not only make her remember, but to make her love him all over again. Sorcha definitely feels something different going on here, but she is a bit of a stubborn woman and doesn't want to acknowledge what her heart already knows.
This book was definitely a quick read. I love Cale to pieces, he is everything I look for in a shifter. As for Sorcha - I enjoyed her, and I appreciated her own lethal side. But if I am honest, I still harbor some resentment over the past. I don't want to do a spoiler here, but let's just say that once all the facts are out, she isn't exactly as innocent in Cale's shattered heart as it would first appear.
This is a really good series with a lot of twists built in to keep you guessing. That's really good for someone like me, who is just a bit burnt out on shifters. The intimate times are very sexy, and Sydney Somers can write a kiss that will sear you to the core. *sigh* How I love a good kiss!
So yeah, if you haven't checked this series out, I think you should. I also have it on good authority from some friends of mine that it gets better and better. I'm excited!!

2.5 stars!
A lethal huntress, Sorcha lives to track and eliminate rogue immortals—until her latest assignment turns out to be a sexy, gargoyle shape-shifter. From the start she’s shaken by the lust his touch awakens inside her. Not only that, but the cat is convinced she’s his mate, and for the first time, she’s unable to kill her target.
Still mourning the loss of his mate, Cale is stunned to find Sorcha alive. Yet the woman he aches to possess doesn’t recognize him and is after the only thing that will save his brother—a mystical weapon that will lead to Excalibur.
Determined to protect his family and reclaim his mate, Cale ruthlessly takes advantage of Sorcha’s one weakness—her desire for him. Desire that could unlock their past…or cause him to lose her all over again.
Sadly no matter how much I enjoyed the first book I couldn't get into Primal Attraction. My main problem was I couldn't connect with the heroine Sorcha, I found her to be annoying and too aggressive for my liking and Cale was a bit of an idiot too! However what kept me reading were the other character's involved in Primal Attraction which I really loved and thought they were well written. It's not that I didn't like the book or the storyline it's just I wasn't keep on the characters.
Overall, an interesting addition to the Pendragon Gargoyles.

Title: Primal Attraction
Series: Pendragon Gargoyles Book #2
Author: Sydney Somers
Rating: B
Review: While this one was another great addition to the series, I didn't like it quite as much as the first one. It almost had a different tone than the last one, I guess because Cale and Sorcha have all this past history with each other. I did get a bit frustrated with Sorcha at times, because she refused to admit how much Cale meant to her. She was so set on being a huntress, it was like she couldn't see the forest for all the trees. She was a tough huntress though and an interesting character. Of course, Cale made up for her stubbornness with his determination to win her over. His sheer happiness that she has really come back from the dead - at least from his perspective - is so sweet and touching. However, it was kind of sad though that she would never regain those memories that she once had had with him.
The story was still original and in line with Sydney Somer's writings though, and I find myself once again looking forward to her next book!

I presume you know what the book is about. I'm letting you know what I liked or disliked about it.
Another great read by Ms. Somers. As usual they're too short :)
I liked Tristan and Sorcha. I liked their chemistry and the well written angst of "will they or won't they be together". Though I woul dhave liked toknow more about Sorcha's past - well everyone's past really. Sorcha's seemed a bit more mysterious. Lot's of room to add more to the story. There I go again - need more words.
I was really really bummed when one - maybe a short paragraph was dedicated to a very important element to the story - the hunt for the sorceress and getting the dagger from her. I'd love to know more about the daggers too - what do they symbolize?
Yes - so the story and plot lines for this series are awesome. It's just too short. These books could be twice as long and become even more significant pieces of work.
Well on to book 3. Can't wait. This has been a fun series to read. Perfect actually for my current frame of mind.

Not sure which is more traumatizing... discovering the mate you thought long dead is actually alive, or making the discovery while she's hurling arrows into your flesh.
While book one, Primal Hunger, catered more to making you laugh in between getting one's libido up and running, Primal Attraction aimed more for your heartstrings. It starts off very emotional with some action for flavor, then things get a bit drawn out and the story loses some of its appeal. But wow, when Cale and Sorcha go Mr and Mrs Smith everything gets catapulted. I laughed. I teared up. I even got a bit nervous. There's definitely some apprehension to be felt from the suspense.
And once again, just as the first, the ending did very well in preparing the reader for the next installment. Yays for Primal Attraction!

***WARNING*** This book will literally set off the fire detectors in your house. I could not put the book down but had some baking to do so I figured I would read a couple of pages while waiting for the timer to go off..timer went off...just let me finish this page...just one more page until low and behold an ear piercing BEEP BEEP BEEP ok I should have put it down when the timer went off but I just couldn't. This book was a great addition to the series. This book put me on such an emotional roller coaster! I was so heartbroken by the loss of losing a loved one and then finding out that they are still alive. Don't forget all of the hot steamy sex that every woman longs for. I think I will go start reading book 3 Primal Pleasure out on the deck while the smoke in the house clears!!

Again, 3.5 stars for book #2 in the Pendragon Gargoyles series. At times I thought I liked this one better than the first one, and sometimes not. I think I like Sorcha better than Kennedy. She has more personality and depth. Cale, despite his decades of grieving his "loss" of Sorcha, isn't all that distinguishable from Tristan in the first book. I like the way Sorcha's dilemma is resolved, but did not like the fact that one main stumbling block could not be.
And the quest for the daggers continues. Quite some time until book 3, though...

I loved this book. It is a great addition to the series, but had such a sensual feel for me. Cale was definitely a lover, oh momma, was he ever. Granted he was a fierce protector too. He and Sorcha ignited when together. I loved loved loved their chemistry. Sorcha was a total badass woman that I enjoyed reading her in action - totally right up my alley in girl power! The action was fantastic and I could envision each scene in my head (especially Cale's advances on Sorcha - hot!). I love the closeness of Cale and his siblings. Definitely looking forward to Brianna's story.

Sorcha is torn between desire and duty. Her love, Cale, is admirable for all his efforts of allowing her to be who she wants to be. However, there's one thing he won't allow her, to forget his love for her. I felt Sorcha's story was original which is nice to see something different come along. Meanwhile Cale's story was your typical male going after his fated mate. Not that I have a problem with that. It all played out beautifully. Can't wait to read the next!
February 22, 2015
Ms. Somers continues her Pendragon Gargoyle series with the steamy story of huntress Sorcha and Cale the were-cat-gargoyle. Sorcha has been sent to kill Cale but he is not an easy mark due to past history that they both share and only one of them can remember. There are plenty of twists and turns and much to overcome before the soul mates can achieve their happily ever after.
