Merissa (14194 KP) rated His Mate by Allegiance (Lunetti Pack #3) in Books
Jul 14, 2025
To show the Council that they're all playing nicely together, Marco and Blaze have arranged a wedding between the MC and the Pack. Emilio is the one taking the fall for the Pack, and Rocco for the MC. Emilio was quite happily planning his future husband's demise when the worst thing (for him) happens. He realises Rocco is his fated mate, and he really, REALLY, doesn't want one of those! As for Rocco, well, he's planning on being as in-your-face as he can be to push Emilio away. So you get that neither of them is on board with this, right? Yeah, well, that all changes once they meet. Trust me, they burn up the pages!
The story is more than just their relationship, and I loved how the story progressed. For me, though, it was all about Rocco and Emmy. I loved these two so much. One of the best parts was the slow and gentle realisation from Emmy that it would be okay to bond with Rocco. They really were a perfect fit! I loved how it wasn't some big bang realisation, but rather one that crept up on him, no matter how hard he fought it.
If there was one thing I wanted more of, it would be Emilio topping Rocco! It only happened once, and although it was off-the-charts hot, I would have liked it at least once more. But then, that's me being greedy and wanting more than I was given, which was absolutely good enough! And that is why I've rated this as 5/5. I'm certainly not going to knock a star, or half-star, off for something that would have been a bonus!
I can't wait for the next book and hope that Marco gets his HEA too at some point. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED by me.

Merissa (14194 KP) rated The Cryptic Prophecy (Etherya's Earth #6) in Books
Apr 7, 2022 (Updated Jun 26, 2023)
Although other characters are in here, the focus is on Callie and Brecken, plus their families. No worries though, because that also includes Callie's parents (in case you were having Darkrip withdrawals!). He's a bit of a one here when he goes in 'I'm your father and I know what's best for you' mode, but Arderin and Callie soon shake that notion from him. Those scenes were so much fun to read!
Brecken is the sole male in his family, his father having died years before. He adores his mum and will do anything for his sisters, including writing the most beautiful love letters to Callie, on behalf of someone else! I don't want to talk about 'the other man' though - he doesn't deserve the page space!! Brecken is well-deserving of his nickname Shakespeare and made my heart melt with every letter!
Tatiana plays a bigger role and finally picks a side, which opens up the way the following books will go. I did wonder where we'd be going next, but now, I'm fully on board and (once again) can't wait to read more.
Callie and Brecken are steaming-hot, whilst also being caring, loving, and romantic enough to make anyone's cold, dead heart beat again. I have absolutely adored this series but I think Callie and Brecken are my new favourites.
Oh, and that prophecy? It's fulfilled but not in the way you suspect, and that's ALL I'm going to say. If you want to know more - read the book!!! Just remember to start at book one though, so you get the full experience. Trust me, you won't regret it.
