This first book in her new series showcases Ms. Taiden's talents as a world builder and story teller. Very strong well developed characters carry this story from beginning to end. I loved the interactions and the dynamics between all of them.
Melinda Caster is our heroine, a betrayal back when she first joined the CDC by the man she thought she loved has hardened her heart to anyone really loving her. Along with a very religious upbringing that has caused her believe only what she sees and can prove scientifically. She does not believe in the paranormal world, gods or demons. But she lives in Uganda now, and somethings are as much a part of their lives and beliefs as breathing. Will the Demon king win her body?
Parish Hamel is an A.L.P.H.A. jaguar shifter. He has been sent to protect her from threats the home office became aware of. The first time he sees her his whole world is turned upside down and inside out as he knows he's found his mate. When he informs his boss, he is told he has to stay on the job because they have no available other agents that can take over. But to keep his head on his shoulders and keep both of them alive. Can Parish find his way out of his dreams and save his mate?
This story is a blending of demons, science, paranormal, and dreams. Dreams of happy ever afters, and dreams within the demon realm. A nasty, but small, demon king with Napoleon sized dreams of his own. Can a woman who has been hurt so badly before that she willing to believe the worse thing she hears out of a man's mouth without any thought or possibly it might be something else and a man that is more than a just a man make it work? Can they admit their feelings to themselves and each other before the sun set on the demons world? You must read to find out. I loved it, five stars and I cannot wait for the next book.

not awful and kinda fun but copyediting is important folks. I enjoyed the way in which the story was resolved with an authorial handwave (legitimately, no sarcasm because I appreciated how unapologetic it was) . Bonus points for not being weird about setting it in Uganda. Which is hard to explain unless you've been present for my real life rants whenever authors treat the African continent like it's fucking desert Narnia. I'd probably rate it two stars if it weren't for that and the sheath bit. I grew up reading sword & sorcery so that made me snicker. Solid Taiden book and I'll likely read more in the series.

Cute and fun. Enjoyed the characters, worldbuilding, and storyline, but the end felt a little rushed.
