Reaper comes out of a long hibernation into a world that is
changed, but the first thing he sees is Greer a
healer/dragon shifter and someone he wants badly. Too bad he
feels a DARKNESS RISING that has awoken him and many other
ancients. He must find out the danger, learn this new world
and become the mate of Greer. Simple for an ancient dragon
shifter. Too bad he irritates the heck out of Greer.
Greer has, for many many years, used her abilities to heal
and feels she is the total opposite of the ancient irritant
that dared to breath fire at her. But when he needs to find
the other ancients and the reason for his sudden awakening,
her alpha sends her to New Orleans with him. It must be true
love because the ancient fire breather grows on her. The
simplicity of her life is about to blow up in her face, and
the world will be forever changed in just a few moments.
I have been trying to find the proper words to express my
feelings for DARKNESS RISING. Wow and OMG doesn't do it
justice at all. I am left with saying that DARKNESS RISING
will blow you away! It begins simply enough - an ancient
rises from hibernation, adding a couple of unintentional
hysterical moments and moves on to the world forever
changed. In between these things we watch as Reaper and
Greer come to terms with their feelings, fight with and for
one another as well as facing the new world. The setting is
New Orleans, one of my favorite places to read about and
perfect setting for this paranormal. We see a number of
other beings from past Katie Reus Darkness
books including Nyx, King (the wolf shifter alpha), Justus
and Cynara, who finally admit their feelings for one
another. An absolutely amazing book that will have you
enthralled to the last page.
This is Ms. Reus' finale of her Darkness
series but we have been promised that we will not lose this
world. She has spinoff plans with new characters and some
from this series in the new one. Thank you, Ms. Reus, for a
fantastic series and look forward to the next offering.
If you are looking for sexy dragon shifters, a snarky dragon
shifter, wolf shifters, demons, hybrids, good guys doing
their best to beat the bad guys, love, laughter, steamy
amazing moments then I suggest you get your hands on
DARKNESS RISING and enjoy.
From USA Today bestselling author Katie Reus comes the
final story in the sensual, pulse-pounding Darkness series…
When a bringer of death…
Awakened after millennia, dragon warrior Reaper is ready to
fulfill his destiny…until he sees Greer. With one glimpse,
everything Reaper has ever known throughout his very long
life is irrevocably changed. Greer’s his mate, he feels it
in his blood, in his soul—but convincing her is another
matter. The dragon clan healer finds him obnoxious and
annoying, but he knows a woman’s interest when he smells it.
And Greer smells like one word: mine.
Meets a giver of life…
Greer has spent hundreds of years using her healing
abilities for the good of others, making her the polar
opposite of Reaper. The ferocious war general may be an
ancient, but his arrogance proves he hasn’t spent any of
that time learning about women. Greer is displeased when her
Alpha sends her to New Orleans with the insufferable
warrior—then she sees him in action against a menace
threatening to tear the city apart. Fierce, protective,
magnificent…mate-worthy. Maybe opposites do attract, but if
they want to live long enough to find out, they’ll first
have to save the world teetering on the brink of obliteration.
