Continuing my read-a-long with the Fated Mates Podcast, No Rest for the Wicked takes one turned-against-his-will vampire and the emotionless assassin Valkyrie who wanted to murder him, but turns out to be his bride. Oh, and this vampire has never had an erection until he meets Kaderin the Cold-Hearted (his bride) and she hasn't felt sexual desire until he kisses her. So delicious.

I liked the addition of the legendary scavenger hunt contest, a contest Kaderin has competed in, and one, at least five times. Seeing her at turns foiled and helped by the lovelorn vampire was super fun. And wow, the sexual tension is for reals in this book!

I'm loving how Cole includes so many awesome secondary characters, and I'm really looking forward to learning more about Bowen and his quest to save his long dead mate, which Kaderin foiled in this book.

Slight spoilers:

Bastian is a virgin (see above). He's also 6 1/2 feet tall. Yum.
Hot plane sex, which thankfully isn't ruined by all the lightning somehow.
Bewitched chains is the new BDSM
The time travel aspects confused me a little bit. Hoping they'll be discussed in the podcast.
