The High Mountain Court by A.K. Mulford

Did not finish book. Stopped at 80%.
I was enjoying this until
Remy and Hale have the Fated mates revelation and there is not a sentence that goes by without mentioning being 'Fated'.
It had been pretty readable until this and I enjoyed the plot, but this plus the fact I knew the series didn't follow the same central characters made me decide to cut my losses.
