Author Summary
Jessica McClain has
just discovered she's the biggest threat the supernatural world has seen in
over eight hundred years, but there's only one thing on her mind - finding her
mate. Rourke's been kidnapped by a wicked goddess and his only chance of
survival lies in her hands.
Finding Rourke and
defeating the goddess proves to be difficult enough, but when the Underworld
comes calling and Jessica discovers she's accused of crimes she hasn't
committed, the entire game changes. The price they are demanding for her
freedom is too steep. There is no way she can ever pay it back.
My Thoughts
Good gods,
my heart rate didn’t slow down throughout the entire read…and it was awesome!
The
author has given life to a fierce and uncompromising society of werewolves
where Jessica, our heroine, is not supposed to exist. In this series, there are no female-born
werewolves and haven’t been for a very long time. Until Jessica. Superstition is rampant among the Pack and
most fear her. Some believe she is the one
spoken of in the prophecies. The true
Daughter of Evil who would eventually destroy the entire race.
Needless
to say, Jessica’s life has been about struggling to survive under the constant
threat of death. Even with the protection of some major players in the Pack,
she still lived in fear. She’s a survivor and one kickass heroine, but more
importantly, she has a heart bigger than most. That compassionate side of her
is what endears her to me and why I just love her character.
The worldbuilding
in this series is unique, the characters are relatable and believable even in
this fantasy world of supernaturals, and the entire storyline is compelling.
All of it expertly delivered by the author.
Hot-Blooded is a fast-paced read with non-stop
action throughout. Once I started reading this novel, I wasn’t able to stop
until it was finished. Even when I had to pause, I wished I had the Audiobook
to listen to as I handled what pulled me away. Prepare to miss out on some
sleep my lovelies. But it’ll be so worth it.
If
you’re an Urban Fantasy fan or a fan of werewolves and shifter tales, you’ll
definitely want to add this one to the top of your To-Be-Read list. I am so
looking forward to Cold-Blooded coming October 8th.
Happy Reading!!
