Back Cover Blurb:

Hannah Welch doomed were-cougar Sean Foye to spend the rest of his life in his animal form when she refused to accept him as a mate. But an attack at the Foyes’ New Mexico ranch ended with Hannah becoming a cougar, too. She strikes a bargain with the goddess who cursed him: Sean will be freed from his furry affliction if Hannah can find him a more suitable mate.

Then the two are paired on a mission to root out a group of troublemakers, and as they work together, their icy feelings end up thawing quickly. Soon, Hannah’s not so sure she should give Sean up. He’s the only man who’s ever made her feel comfortable in her own skin—and her own fur, too. Can she prove to Sean that destiny deserves a second chance?

My Review:

What a fun and exciting addition to this unique series. I loved how Trent continues to build the world in which her characters live as well as the concepts of fate & free will. The tale is well written and thought out. The plot is imaginative and well rounded. I had a great time being pulled back into this world with the fast paced and at times comical action of the story..

I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know the main characters better. They’d intrigued me when I met them in previous novels in the series, and they were fantastic here. Seeing them actually take the time to get to know one another as individuals, rather than using the preconceived notions that they had, was a lot of fun. Surrounded by their friends and family, this was a cast that I won’t soon forget.

Trent once again had me hooked with her seamless and creative storytelling as well as her vivid world. This was a fantastic novel that I’m sad to see end.
