From bestselling author Thea Harrison comes the first in an explosive new trilogy set in the Elder Races world.... Her past is a blank, her future uncertain.... Recovering from a shooting, LAPD witch consultant Sophie Ross leaves her job and travels to the U.K. to search for answers about her childhood. When she encounters a Daoine Sidhe knight of the Dark Court, she becomes entangled in an ancient hatred between two arcane forces. He has given his body and soul to fight for his people.... Barred from his homeland along with his surviving brother knights, Nikolas Sevigny is embroiled in a conflict that threatens everything he holds dear. Only by uniting his people's resources can they hope to prevail against Isabeau, the deadly Queen of the Light Court. He will do anything and use anyone to return home to Lyonesse. When Nikolas encounters Sophie, he sees a tool to be used. The insouciant witch might be the key to unlocking every passageway that has been barred to the knights of the Dark Court, even as a fascination for her takes root in what's left of his soul. Sophie has no intention of becoming anyone's pawn, yet the fierce Nikolas is so compelling, she can't deny the temptation that endangers her guarded heart. As magic threatens Lyonesse, Queen Isabeau unleashes her merciless Hounds, and Nikolas and Sophie become embroiled in a race for survival. Meanwhile, the passion that ignites between them burns too hot to be denied and quickly turns into obsession. Thank goodness they both know better than to fall in love...

This is the first in a fantasy trilogy centered around a struggle between the Light and Dark Courts of the Elder Races world. While it was a good read, I didn‘t feel as invested in its characters/storyline as I have in other fantasies (such as Kate Daniels or Mercy Thompson). The two mains (Nikolaus & Sophie) fell too hard and too fast with a fair amount of sex thrown in throughout. I was also a bit disappointed in the final battle scene of the 🔻

robinb book. But while I did have some issues here, many will be perfectly happy with it. I‘m giving it a pick even though it‘s probably between that and a so-so for me. 3/5⭐️
This was my June #doublespin and the second book in my #JoysOfJune. @TheAromaofBooks @Andrew65

A start to a new/spin-off series. As usual - I loved this book. Her characters are great and the action is non stop. I can‘t wait to read the next one 😍 #romantsy #romance

Really enjoyed this story set in the world of the Elder Races. No need to have read the Elder Race series but does help with a little understanding of the different races. I loved Sophie and her spunk. I was nice to have a heroine that already knew her magic, herself and really didn't need anyone else. Fun read. Looking forward to the next one.

Nik doesn't wear white. At all. That fact is mentioned several times. Other than that, the cover does a good job setting the atmosphere.

I really enjoyed this while I was reading it. Classic alpha hero butts heads with fiercely independent heroine. I enjoyed the mythology, a mashup of fae lore and your typical supernatural beings (werewolves, shifters, etc.) That said, now that I'm done it's easily forgettable. Well done but same old PNR.

julesG It's probably very light grey or cream. 😝 8y

"Just because I don't know something doesn't mean I can't learn it...Bigotry and fascism are flaws. Withholding information because you think you know better is a flaw. Ignorance isn't a flaw."

Heroine smackdown.

I put aside the other RT Award finalist in favor of this one. I've been trying to read for the past hour or so but only get maybe a sentence in before my 3yo says, "Mom," to let me know something of vital importance (?) every 10 seconds or so. I'm pretty tired of the word "mom" and it's not yet 10 am.

I haven't read the last few in her Elder Race series. Not really interested in those characters and just haven't been interested in paranormal romance beyond a few favorite authors in general. I'm glad I gave this one a shot. Loved the dynamic between the hero and heroine. And I liked the potential of the other new characters. Kind of makes me nostalgic for pnr.

I haven't enjoyed reading the last few Thea Harrison books as much as the first few in the Elder Races series so I wasn't sure if I should pick up this one or not but I'm so glad I did, I actually liked the beginning of this new series far more than I thought I would & will definitely be picking up the next one 🌟🌟🌟🌟

MrBook Nice pic 😊👍🏻! 8y
