Shut up, Garreth MacRieve. You are a dream boat Lykae and I love you.

With what may be my favorite of the Immortals After Dark books yet, I adored this journey into the heart of the Amazon with Garreth and his fated mate, the best archer in the world Lucia the Huntress. Garreth is just the best, from his attempts to stop himself from claiming Lucia with a bewitched cuff of silver, to his attempts to protect her despite also trying to chase her down.

Again Cole plays with edging, as Lucia refuses to break her vow of chastity to the goddess who helped save her life from a mortal wound, as doing so will mean she loses her archery skills. What these two get up to in the mean time is whoa, hot.

I'm interested to see where the series goes from here, as while Garreth and Lucia receive their happily ever after, other characters we've met along the way have been kidnapped...by humans?!


This series is just so much fun, and I'm enjoying every minute of reading it and hearing it discussed on the Fated Mates podcast.

Also, I'm so glad I live somewhere that freezes every winter, because hard pass on the giant piranhas, spiders, and SNAKES. No thank you.
