Reyes’ Story

www.read-that.com book reviews

Reyes is a Lord of the Underworld and houses the demon, Pain. He aches for only one woman, Danika Ford. Reyes met her when she was kidnapped by the Lords since Aeron was told to kill Danika and her family. He was refusing to kill them but the blood lust came and he had to be locked up. While Reyes was trying to keep one of his best allies from killing the woman that he loves dearly, he seems to have some feelings going on that he has no idea what they are.

Danika has been plagued with dreams. Some were delicious about Reyes but others were about demons and hell. She hasn’t had a wonderful life and now that she is on the run because the Lords want her and so does the Hunters. The Hunters want to know why she was captured for so long and not killed. The Lords want to know what her dreams mean and wanting to keep Aeron from killing her. Once the Hunters have Danika kidnapped, Reyes decides to move the earth to find her and bring to the fortress to be with him and safe.

While all the warriors are fierce and willing to kill for each other, they are loyal and caring and have a humanity about them. Even though they are part demon and are immortal. Danika realizes that for some reason she only feels safe around Reyes and wonders if she could give him the pain that he requires to keep his demon content. Can Reyes control himself enough to give in to Danika?

I felt so much emotion with this book. I felt sorry for Pain and for Danika but also wanted to smack some sense into them as well. I guess having a hard life makes you second guess everything and as for Reyes, I’d bet that women in general are just foreign to him. This storyline runs about like the others but there are twists and turns that will catch your breath and throw you off your guard. I loved it!
