Sable
Dark Sentinels #1
by Dariel Raye
Goodreads blurb: Dr. Akila Marshall is a veterinarian with a
calling – save as many stray animals as possible. The only child of wealthy,
yet distant parents, she’s convinced that love is not for her. Until…
Sable’s search for his twin sister leads him to Akila. Born into a rare species of wolf shifters whose main purpose is protecting others, he has always been forced to fend for himself, but Akila’s loving, protective nature draws him – and not a moment too soon. Together, they must learn to trust each other enough to overcome a new, deadly enemy.

About the Author: Dariel loves books, animals, and all things
paranormal. The paranormal romance, “Raven’s Shelter,” one of five stories in
Taming of the Wolf, was her second publication, and her first with The Wild
Rose Press as a result of placing second in their “Got Wolf” competition -
prompted the new “Dark Sentinels” series. Dariel has written articles for The

Unicorns - I really liked it!!!
***Received a copy of the ebook for
an honest review
The
cover is awesome and is what got my attention and pulled me toward the book.
This
is the first book in the Dark Sentinels series, and my first time reading a
book by Dariel :) It is a novella about
80 pages long. This is for adults only
due to the steamy scenes.
Okay,
I really loved this book until the end, and then I wanted to throw the book but
it was my kindle….so yeah not happening!
There was a sexy wolf, action, drama, romance, and some mystery well for
Akila anyway :) But at the end, the bad
guy stuff was concluded, but nothing about Sable and Akila. I was floored. I thought maybe it would continue in book 2
but it’s about a new character. I was
completely screaming because I want closure or something telling what happens
to them…uggggg!!! This book was sooo
great, but I’m hoping that this did not happen in book 2.
Akila
is an awesome and caring vet who wants to take care of all the animals in the
world :) She has a really big
heart. Sable is a sexy wolf looking to
save his sister and seems very Alpha to me.
The staff at Akila’s clinic seem awesome and caring too!! I really loved these characters.
Dariel
does a fantastic job with her descriptions and storylines. I think this book could have easily been
expanded to a full length book with the awesome and complex storyline. I’m
definitely reading book 2 (well already started) because I really like the characters
and the start of the world created, and I have so many questions about
sentinels and their roles.
I
recommend this story to wolf shifter lovers because it is a fabulous story
:) Off to read some more!!
Interested in reading???
Happy you enjoyed it, Cassandra, despite wanting to throw it at the end because of the cliffhangers. LOL Even happier you're reading book two. You'll get more answers in each book ;-) Thanks for taking the time to post your review, and I'm taking your thoughts about making it a full-length into consideration.
ReplyDeleteAwesome :) Reading didn't happen this weekend like I wanted, so I will have to read it tomorrow :)
