The story continues as Gillian gets closer to Tenebris. Shayne has said that he can't be close to her and still do his job, so Gillian is hurting. Their guide shows up and it quickly becomes clear that he and Shayne have a history. However, there is an intriguing connection between Gillian and Mathias that neither of them understands.

People are still trying to stop them from reaching Tenebris, but instead of the Templars, they now look like "Desert Ninjas" instead. Are they one and the same or is someone else joining in the 'fun' now too?

Well-written as always, with a smooth pace and one heck of a steamy ménage scene, this instalment continues to titillate the senses and leave you wanting more. Definitely recommended.

This is a novella that tells the story of an African tribe, their origins and traditions, and how that affects the first pair of fraternal twins born to the ruling line. It was always assumed that it would be the princess who would mate and live with the water god. However, this time, it is not the princess who is receiving the dreams, but her brother.

This story is based over a couple of weeks, but you still manage to be given all the information needed in a good way. There is no info dump here. Well written and with no editing or grammatical errors that I found, this was a short but steamy read that came to a satisfying conclusion. Definitely recommended.

In a fast-paced ghost story, Kami is ecstatic that her friend Mona has returned home from university. Kami is bi and has always liked Mona, but has been afraid to say anything. Now she decides that is enough is enough, and tells her. This leads to some girl-on-girl action before they move off to a different location.

This is only a short story so it's really not worth me giving you the whole rundown on the story as you may as well read it for yourself! It is steamy and mysterious with a twist that is obvious once you've read it, but you would never see it coming.

Absolutely recommended for a quick (dark) read.

Enthralling (5 more)
Great Character development
Easy to relate to (more so for young adults).
Very consistent, you don't see crazy out of character, makes no sense, kind of actions.
Very Emotional, you will be all over the place and love every minute.
Clean, though it has a passionate romance, this is not a steamy book, perfect for YA and people simply not interested in those kinds of things.
There is a side to 'very emotional' that can be a little unsettling for some. I loved it though! (1 more)
Not Steamy - For those who would want it.
Whats not to love?!
*No Spoilers*

I loved this book, though I read the series when I was young, having the 15 novels constrained to a few bigger books instead of a bunch of tiny ones is a huge plus for me!

Years and years after my first read, this book still pulled me in and kept me there. Cate Tiernan really grabbed the bull by the horns by offering us a MC Heroine who is not perfect or a knock out. At 16 she is down to earth, she has her flaws and insecurities which really is what makes her such and intresting character to come and relate to. And the best friend who she can't help but relate herself to. Cate brings the world of teenage angst and adds in magick and danger for a thrilling mix that will pull you right in.

This book takes over the span of roughly a year. With plenty of twists and turns, ups and downs and all arounds. Morgan and Cal have a very interesting journey, along with a group of...we will call them friends. Its such a diverse group of personalities.

Its definitley a book I would recommend to any YA. My little sister has just read it and is also in love! But if you are not YA don't turn it away so quickly, it's a book to be read! I never got to finish the series before and am so excited to follow more of Morgan's story!
