Ayral is a harpy, a sentinel in the service of Dragos the
dragon leader of the Wyr demesne. Quentin Caeravorn is part
black panther and part mystery and also has recently earned
a spot as a sentinel. There has always been something about
Quentin that Ayral didn't trust; in fact she has been
investigating him in the hopes that she would find anything
that could get him kicked out of the sentinels. The man has
this harpy completely KINKED out of shape.
After an explosive bout of violent fighting between them
Dragos has had enough. He banishes them from New York and
sends them on a mission together. Dragos wants to make sure
there is no looting going on at Numenlaur, the place where
not long ago a High Lord had managed to enthrall Elven
people and force them to attack their own kind in his
desire for power, emptying out the whole town. He just
wants them out of his hair for awhile and hopes they clear
up whatever it is that is eating at them or they are both
out.
Ayral and Quentin actually go on the mission with the same
plan, only one of them is going to come back, a terrible
accident will happen to the other. They find there is
unexpected danger in this recon mission, and not only are
their lives in danger but the Elves who were sent to guard
the passage to Numenlaur have disappeared too. The danger
they face must be dealt with together. As they work to
survive a stranger truth hits them ... there is no possible
way they could be mates. The gods wouldn't do that to them,
would they?
KINKED is the continuation of author Thea Harrison's
compelling and intriguing Elder Races series. This
one is
filled with nonstop action, amazing magical beings and a
lot of steamy sex between two beings that have to learn to
depend on each other if they are to survive. Ayral starts
out determined that Quentin is a criminal and Quentin is
sick of being her target and having her spy on him. I
enjoyed the witty repartee between this mismatched but
perfect for each other couple, as they traveled to the
Elven land. Then as they grew closer and learned to relax
with each other they were actually very funny. There was a
special tenderness that Quentin showed when it was possible
that Ayral's damaged wings would not allow her to fly
again, even if he did push her off the rooftop. That is a
scene you will understand when you read KINKED. I have been
thrilled at all of the Elder Races books and look
forward
to many more by Ms. Harrison.
Two opponents must confront the cause of their obsessive
fury in the latest Novel of the Elder Races?
As a harpy, Sentinel Aryal is accustomed to dealing
with
hate, but Sentinel Quentin Caeravorn manages to inspire in
her a burning ire unlike anything she's ever known. Aryal
believes the new Sentinel to be a criminal, and vows to
take
him out as soon as the opportunity arises. But the harpy's
incessant wrath has pushed Quentin to the limit, and forces
him to make a deadly vow of his own.
To put an end to the conflict, Dragos, Lord of the Wyr,
sends them on a reconnaissance mission to the Elven land of
Numenlaur. Forced to work together, Aryal and Quentin's
mutual antagonism escalates. Each fight draws forth more
passion?culminating in an explosively sexual confrontation.
But when their quest reveals real danger, Aryal and Quentin
must resolve their differences in ways beyond the physical,
before the entire Wyr is threatened.
