Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. This is another one of my favorites in the series. Vikirnoff catches up to Natalaya, and discovers his lifemate is a mouthy part-Carpathian part mage tiger shapeshifter who travels with an arsenal and fights vampires (and wins). This books is all about the important series story arc business - absolutely crucial to the overarching plotline. Vikirnoff and Natalya are both wonderfully complex characters, and both strong. They do hurt each others' feelings, but not on purpose, and we end up simply happy that they're together. Mostly, we want to see Nicholae laughing at Vikirnoff. Good romance, good plot, good characters - don't miss this one. This is Vikirnoff VonShrieder and Natalaya's story. no reviews | add a review

Vikirnoff Von Shrieder has been searching for Natalya for a while and finally finds her in the midst of battle, but she isn’t the lifemate he expected. She’s brash, funny, stubborn, and doesn’t obey him. In other words, she drives him crazy!
Vikirnoff and Natalya bicker a lot, but it’s hilarious playful bantering. He was bossy, sure, but he wasn’t cold and harsh to her. She was strong enough to handle and flabbergast her man, which makes her one of the best heroines in the series.
A great cast of secondary characters played big roles in this book. Jubal, Gabrielle, Falcon, Sara, Mikhail, Raven—just to name a few.
This book definitely had a lot of villains and action scenes, which was great. Xavier, the evil and powerful mage intent on destroying the Carpathians, is probably the cruelest, strongest villain yet to be introduced in the series. Sweet and brilliant Gabrielle meets an unexpected fate, her future with Gary temporarily shelved. Razvan, Natalya’s beloved twin, has turned evil, or so everyone believes. So much stuff happened, and more will be revealed in later books.
This is definitely one of the better books in the series.
