Healer Caleb O'Flare, member of the Para-Ops team
put together to keep the peace between the felines and the
vamps, has the hots for team member Wraith. Wraith pretends
she wants nothing to do with Caleb. Wraith is an immortal
who can't be touched without experiencing pain although
sometimes the pain can be made pleasurable with the right
man. She found out immortality is not forever and her
symptoms lead her to believe that her time in this world is
limited. After seeing the sign of death on Caleb, Wraith
quits the team but Caleb does not give up easily. He
convinces her to return and help them find who is
responsible for drugging and raping female werewolves.
Wraith hopes she can find a way to keep Caleb safe while at
the same time try to find out who she was before becoming a
Wraith. Caleb knows he has a small window to show Wraith
how much he cares for her and if he can't he is sure she'll
disappear from his life forever. Between a hired hit on
Wraith and the tenuous relationship he shares with the
wolves Caleb walks a tightrope that may snap at any time
leaving destruction in its path.
I loved Caleb, he is a
true alpha yet his sensitivity to the heroine's needs
pulled at the heartstrings. Wraith is strong with apparent
vulnerabilities that you can't help but to feel her pain
although her woe is me attitude wore on my nerves halfway
through the book. It was not enough to keep me from
enjoying the book with its suspenseful atmosphere. All of
the characters are intertwined and important to the plot
and subplots mixed in. CHOSEN BY FATE is a sensual
paranormal tale with hidden depths where some answers are
given and others will be part of this continuing series
about other wordly beings living in harmony with the humans
and each other. Kudos to Ms. DePaul for creating a world
for readers to indulge their love of spicy romance,
continuous action, and the supernatural with people who are
memorable,
Although he keeps company with a vampire and a were, human
Shaman Caleb O'Flare can definitely hold his own. But
neither his psychic ability nor his healing powers can help
his sexy-as-hell teammate, Wraith-a ghost with no memory of
her human existence, who cannot experience touch without
pain.
No wraith has managed to exist past its tenth year, so
her time is about to run out. She wants only two things
before accepting her fate: to learn her human identity, and
experience one night with Caleb...
