Scottish Lycans?! I'm Game...

Picking up where Book One left off, we find Luca, the tortured half-crazy brother of Ren in a deep depression after living centuries without finding his fated mate.

Just when he had given up all hope and decided to put on a happy-face at his younger brother's mating ceremony (sort of like a wedding), he locks gazes with his mate, Ainslee, one of the guests hailing from Scotland, attending with her vampire mother, Lycan father and Lycan triplet brothers.

Unmated for centuries mentally, Luca is one sandwich short of a picnic. So, when he finally finds his mate he tries to claim her in the middle of the reception, in front of everyone and doesn't give a damn about protocol or his brother's ceremony. Unfortunately for him, having a conniption in a room full of Lycans and Vampires isn't very cash-money. So, in an attempt to protect their innocent daughter/sister... the half-Vampire/ half Lycan baby of the family, they wisk her away to the private jet back to Edinburgh. Of course, tthis isn't received well by Luca. He is a man consumed and determined after waiting centuries. If they think they're gonna take his mate away from him, they are in for a rude awakening.

This book was very good. It held my attention from start to finish and I really rooted for this couple. Ainslee had to break out of her shell and be the woman she was meant to be by standing up to her overbearing father and three brothers. These brothers stopped at nothing to keep their baby sister from this lunatic lycan and the irony of what happens during the confrontation will leave you like... "Hi Mr. Pot... meet Mr. Kettle"!

If I had any complaints about this book, it would be the author including words to convey the Scottish dialect. Please... there is need to do this. I think many of your readers have watched enough Outlander episodes to grasp what a Scottish dialect sounds like. I found it sort of distracting and at times laughable!

Another wonderful book from Jenika Snow. And her wonderful writing has led me to move on to her next one... how could I not go on after the Easter Egg dropped in this book! Happy reading!
