Even the small need to be counted

Ok wow so much to unload. Let’s see Liena is great and just what Raven needs. The plot has thicken again and I know the next book is going to be just as good as this one. Be ready to meet some new and old friends. Also this series can not be read out of order.

Wow! So nice to revisit this cool world. Liena and Raven had sparks flying right from their first glance. Really nice that Raven found his one. Poor Liena was having PTSD from some prior trauma in her past. They had such a huge challenge with her aversion to mindspeak. This Xian world is fascinatingly built by this author. There is something shady going on in the Rings of Januar. They have to protect their people from the evil Kryptid General. I spent two days engrossed in this book. I highly recommend this book. Just be warned tell your family to leave you alone so you can enjoy this exciting adventure. I can’t wait to see what else she does in the next installment.

I enjoyed the story well enough but I flipped through a lot of sex, more than usual for this author. Admittedly it's possible that I just wasn't in the mood for it in my story as this is the third or fourth erotic romance in a row, which is a serious stretch of my tolerance level for that sort of thing.

That said, Abel makes interesting worlds and engaging stories. I am hoping her next book in this series will be Bane as that will provide so much opportunity to learn more about the "enemy" and the other side of the war.
