I have read every book in this series except for this one. So, to go backwards and read this one was very nice. It gave me a bit more insight into just who Konnor really is. He is someone that is filled with anguish but a great protector as well. It is evident in the way he cared for Blesk.

Blesk herself came with a past as well. Therefore, these two had a lot stacked against them but they fought their demons and were able to lean on each other. Although, Blesk had another person she could count on and that is Elise. Elise had me laughing with her witty humor. We all need an Elise in our lives.

My only "small" complaint is that it felt like it took longer for Konnor and Blesk to bring the heat. Yet, as this is a Nicci book, you can guarantee that the sparks are flying between Konnor and Blesk. So hot. If you are going to go for the older man than you do need to go for someone like Konnor. I am ready for more steamy times with the Butcher men! ( )
