If you haven’t read Nicky Charles’ Laws of the Lycans
series, go start it now! All her books
are available FREE for download from her website, and they are too good to
miss! Her latest instalment is Betrayed: Days of the Rogue, and oh, did I ever
enjoy this one! I’d have to say it is my favourite so far.
When I started this book, I thought it would be more centred
around Damien, the werewolf who has gone rogue after the loss of his mate. While it is in fact a continuation of Damien’s
story, the book belongs truly to Eve – a young woman who not only recently
discovered that she is part Fae, but also has begun to come into her gift as an
empath. Escaping the busy city and all
the noisy minds there, she finds herself in Grassy Hills, renting a cabin in
the woods from the gorgeous Rafe McCrae. As far as she knows, Rafe is an impossibly frustrating man busy
fixing up a series of cabins in the woods to rent – when in reality he has
taken a sabbatical from his work rehabilitating rogue werewolves. When he
realizes the rogue Damien is sniffing around Eve, Rafe immediately takes action to both protect
her and get to the bottom of what Damien is up to – but can he do it without
falling for Eve, a dangerous prospect for more than one reason, in the process?
As I said, this is my favourite book of the Laws of the
Lycans series. It was very involved with many twists and turns, varied
connections between characters, and a story line that kept me guessing everyone’s
motives right up to the end. Not only
did it have great suspense, this book in
particular I found had me feeling deeply for many of the characters as I hoped
they made the choices I *knew* were in them. The romance, as always from Nicky Charles, is
top notch with lots of build up and steamy scenes. (I will never look at a front entrance wall
the same way again. ;) )
Even if this book was regularly priced I would be
recommending it, but since it is free,
you have absolutely nothing to lose! Give the whole series a go – while it is
heavy on the romance, it is more than just
an indulgent read. Four solid stars from
me, for both the book Betrayed and the entire series. Click on the book below to be taken to Nicky Charles' website and get downloading!
