Paranormal Romance | Series
When Mariska spots Ruger at the Celtic festival she knows
she has just one night to be with him, to be with a man who
does not fear her strength, with whom she can be herself, no
holds barred. She neglects to tell him she is scheduled to
join his Sentinel team the next day for fear he will refuse
her desire to be with him that night. As expected, Ruger is
angry when he encounters her at the mission briefing the
next day, but more than that, he seems to feel betrayed. She
didn't expect his reaction to hurt that much. It was only
one night, after all. Ruger is not truly healed from the Atrum Core's explosion on
an earlier mission when he has a new irritation to contend
with. He can no longer reach for his healing power without
passing out from the pain. Even the brute force fighting
ability his Kodiak bear shifter powers give him is evidently
no longer enough for the team. Why else would the tough and
curvy black bear shifter Mariska be assigned? She has very
little field experience, her resume shows she mostly snags
body guard assignments. How can he trust anyone who would
play fast and loose with the truth as she did? They only had
one night together, why does the betrayal hurt so much?
Regardless, going on a dangerous mission with someone he
doesn't trust endangers all of them. The Atrum Core has new horrors in the works. The prescient
visions of Sentinels are ringing warning bells and hinting
that the steps taken in secret now may be enough to destroy
the Sentinels forever. Mariska and Ruger must put aside
their conflicting feelings and focus totally on the job at
hand or no one will survive. Doranna Durgin is a prolific author published in multiple
genres. With her Sentinels novels she has written an
entertaining series of books that fit together almost
seamlessly, giving the world she has created a great deal of
depth. I highly recommend the books be read in order to gain
the fullest possible enjoyment. KODIAK CHAINED is book
five. She has also written two novellas that fit into the
series earlier in the timeline.
SUMMARY
A mighty Kodiak shifter, Ruger is more than a Sentinel
warrior. As a Healer, he willingly risks everything
defending the sick and helpless. But after an ambush nearly
kills him, he can do only so much—until a sensual lady
black bear shifter arrives to provide him backup…. In human form, she is called Mariska. Feisty and self-
assured, she has finagled her present assignment helping
Ruger chase down a rising new threat. The moment Mariska
scents the heroic, battle-scarred grizzly she knows he will
be her only weakness…and greatest desire. Mariska will do anything to aid Ruger—even if confronting
the enemy puts everything she holds dear in jeopardy. A mighty Kodiak shifter, Ruger is more than a Sentinel
