Ash is about to discover that her nightmares are real, ancient Irish myths are larger than life and roaming the streets of the medieval city, and she has become the prey in their erotic hunt. A step back into her past is about to become a high adrenaline race for survival.
Connal Savage, outcast, assassin, and living, breathing hunk of ancient mythology, has lived a thousand years servicing a debt of revenge. Dead inside.

My Thoughts - 4 out of
5 unicorns - I really liked it!!
Okay when I
first started this book, I was confused, and the book seemed pieced
together. I read parts that were worded
awkwardly, and I thought the two authors did not write well together. BUT (and it is a big one because it all
changed!!) and I’m not sure when it changed, that awkwardness disappeared, and
you couldn’t tell it was two authors writing it. I'm not sure if part of the awkward could be contributed to this being the first book in a new series! This story is awesome, and I would totally
have given it 5 stars if it wasn’t for the beginning confusion. The back story is tragic to both the female
and male lead, but it helps draw you into their lives. The drama, battles, and connections between
the characters are exciting. I was not
happy where the ending left you hanging, but I will definitely be reading the
next book which I’m sure was the point :)
It is definitely worth reading to all PNR fans!! :)
