I can already tell that I'm going to love every book in this series, because I really really enjoyed this one. I will say that the plot and main character relationship felt very formulaic, but I do not think that hurt the book. If it ain't broke, don't fix it, and this "prince/bodyguard romance but make it paranormal" was definitely in no need of fixing. Jeremiah was a character that I really enjoyed. He was stern and he took no shit, but he took protecting Remi seriously from day one, even though Remi was acting like a spoiled brat. Jeremiah's background prevented him from believing he was able to have a mate, and also made him feel like he didn't deserve to find love, which made a good amount of this book feel slightly frustrating. And no one was more frustrated than Remi, who was less resistant to listening to his feelings, but still battled feelings of inadequacy himself. I loved to see the characters growth throughout this book as they both slowly embraced their feelings for each other and let their bond grow like it wanted to. The big mystery in this book felt really obvious to me, and I figured it out pretty quickly, but that also didn't lessen my enjoyment in the story. I really liked the rest of the Trident Agency guys, and I can't wait to read the rest of these books!
