I think Gordo and Mark are my favorite pairing in the Green Creek series. Truly, a love story for the ages. They fall in love as youngsters, grow apart through circumstance, and come together again as bitter, reluctant old men. I love how the story is told from Gordo’s point of view. I love the spooky, ethereal use of the Raven, flapping it’s wings whenever his magic starts to gain control. And Mark. Mark, Mark, Mark, is so loveable, so hunky, and you can really feel how emotional, how deep his love for Gordo has been, how much sorrow he carries for choosing his pack over his mate. It’s my second time reading this book, and I was WRECKED when Mark came back for Gordo, only to get his heart broken, and be given back his wolf. Ow! 

But the story, the sorrow of their past, and the trauma they’ve been through, and the race-against-the-clock element of Mark getting infected by the mysterious Omega disease. It’s just so well done. I didn’t know how to feel, even though I was rooting for them to find a way to save him. 

As always, I love these wolves with all my heart, but Gordo is one hell of a witch, and this story shines so bright from his narrative. An excellent story, even the second time around. I loved every minute of it.
