I found this book hard to read as the author kept repeating herself over and over... it was a great storyline and the first in a series..

A DARK MISTRESS BECAME HIS DESTINY...
Plucked from the depths of hell, former military sniper Reno Manchahi was hired by the government to kill a thief, but he had a mission of his own. Descended from a family of shape-shifters, Reno vowed to get the revenge he'd thirsted for all these years. But his assignment went awry when his target turned out to be a powerful seductress, a woman who risked everything to fight a potent evil.
They had a combustible connection, yet he struggled to reveal the truth about himselfhis Apache upbringing, his Jaguar pride, his death plot. Soon, Reno had to transform himself into a true hero, accept this new love and conquer the enemy that threatened them. He had to become a Warrior for the Light....

This wasn't a favortie for me. The writing was too formal for my tastes.
I liked the story however. Worth the credit.

While the story was simple (less than 5 characters), the plot and writing was totally boring and unoriginal. Boy meets girl and within 20 pages, all the world is butterflies and bluebells and lovey-dovey forever. There is no fire between the main characters and they speak to one another with the sappiest dialogue I have ever read in an adult book. The story includes such sugary sweet sentiments as:

" Surely forgiveness is a tenant of creating peace in our world. If we forgive one another, how can there be revenge? The belief in 'an eye for an eye' would disappear forever. That would be lovely, wouldn't it?

"Yes, it would" said Calen.


I am disappointed that Nocturne would choose this book as the first in its series.

Better than average offering from Silhouette. It did repeat itself, but I found the story line very interesting. Boggles my mind how people come up with these kinds of story lines.

I couldn't get into the story line at all with this book. I do enjoy Lindsay McKenna's other work, so I'm sure it was just a difference of voice or style that made the book unlikeable for me. Don't hold that against this book.

This book was a bit hard to get into. But once i passed the first 100 or so pages the story finally picked up. It was good. Lindsay Mckenna does have very good books however this one wasn't a favortie of mine. However the nocturne collection itself is amazing.

A bit exposition-heavy, but the setting among the esmeraldos of Ecuador is interesting, and the shapeshifting hero and heroine play a lovely game of cat and cat before they find and heal each other.
