Devlin rescues the young woman whose been tormenting his dreams and making his soul cry out with hunger but Chantel Ducaine’s secrets may ones that he doesn’t want to uncover in this exciting paranormal fantasy romance.

Chantel knows the time has come to fulfill the legacies but when she’s finally reunited with her Shadow Warrior, he’s tormented by confusion and the belief that she is someone else and The reader can’t help but get caught up in this story as Chantel and Devilin slowly rebuild a relationship as they uncover truths and secrets long held.
The steady to fast paced and smooth flowing plot keeps readers shivering in expectation with suspense, excitement and romance and these strong compelling characters captivate readers and capture their hearts from the very beginning as their attraction to each other has desires flaring out of control with frequent hot and steamy sex scenes but their relationship must struggle against the past and the present.

There is never a dull moment as Devlin and Chantel have to piece together memories of the past and stay one step ahead of Jonar who seeks to destroy them all. Excitement builds throughout the story as the danger escalates and betrayals cause emotional mayhem keeping readers on the edge of their seat. The well written scenes and details capture the imagination and bring the story to life as the well orchestrated suspense and events ensure that the reader can’t put the book down until they have read every last page.

This passionate and fascinating world is full of interesting and unique elements and intriguing and sexy immortal warriors that kept me enthralled from the very beginning and I can’t wait to find out what happens next.

BOOK 2:

All I can say is that I loved this book. It picks up where the last one left off. The characters are now in the present time. Devlin is still living in the castle, he is well over a thousand years old now. He and his warrior brothers are still fighting Jonar, trying to defeat him. Meanwhile Chantel has been reincarnated, and is too fighting to bring Jonar down. She works in a special agent task force with her father and brother. She has these shadowed memories, and she knows her life is meant to mean so much more. Just like the last novel she has dreams of Devlin, but this time doesn't know exactly what he means to her. Devlin too has the same sexual dreams. That is his only pleasure in life, for he has not had sex for a thousand years because he is impotent. Devlin has felt lost for the last thousand years and nothing makes him happy; and he cannot figure out why. Meanwhile, Chantel finds her earth crystal necklace and puts it on, and then is captured by Jonar's men. She manages to escape Jonar's hideout with help from the earth crystal. She somehow is able to call to the man in her dreams(Devlin) to come rescue her out of the town she is in. He does, and when he sees her he is shocked. She looks just like Antea(he has no memory of Chantel because her dad, Galen, put a curse on him to erase his memories of her), but at the same time he is fiercely attracted to her. He can't explain it beacause he hated Antea so much. He then brings Chantel to the castle to keep her safe. He is torn with his feelings for Chantel. His soul wants to love her and cherish her, but his mind does not. His mind is telling him that she is the evil Antea.

Chantel's memories and powers start to come back little by little, which in turn help her use her crystal to do good. Just as Devlin's shadowed memories are slowly coming back. I loved watching Devlin's struggle to remember. Even though his mind couldn't, his soul definitely could. He loved Chantel so much, more than anything. The love scenes were hot and erotic. He was so tender and loving with her, but at the same time strong and protective . And when their memories finally surfaced completely it was amazing. Chantel's love was just as strong. I think she gave up alot in the beginning, so she and Devlin could have a real future together. And even though he did not like it, I think he understood. I loved the part in the book when he said his soul could not survive a second time again without her. This book was weaved with so much emotion and plot. I cannot wait to read the next one.

This is a very different subject. It's still very sexy, but it's divided in before and after between the 3 books. I just wish I could find the conclusion of those 3 Legacy books!!
