Heather Peters is recovering from a kidnapping at the Spencer ranch in northwest Texas. She needs it, after seeing and experiencing things no one should see. Marcus Cunningham is watching the ranch closely he wants to make sure that this refuge is real and he can find the peace from his family he so wants. He wants a place where he will not be BETRAYED.
Marcus' family, especially his grandfather is the leader of Romulus, a subversive shifter organization. He will not be part of this and is seeking refuge himself, but he's not ready yet but when Heather goes down with a snakebite he can't just leave her there he must help. It's not just the good guy that he is ... she's his mate and she's in danger.
He must find the strength to face the Spencer's and his mate with the information he has. It could cause a war between those who want to preserve their way of life and those like Romulus who want to rule the world. Good versus evil and it will take everything Marcus' has to protect his mate and the people he has grown to love.
BETRAYED is an endearing, page turning paranormal romance. I say endearing because the romance between Heather and Marcus is a sweet one with just the right amount of spice to peak interest. I liked how he was a cross between a nerd and alpha and she was strong but didn't come off as know- it- all. In other words just right for each other. I have read a number of Becca Jameson's books (in fact I loved Tarnished, Book one of this series) and usually they are fast past this one is also but it did seem a little on the rushed side with a few too many lose ends that were tied in knots at the end or not tied up at all. As always Ms. Jameson has written a story that will keep you reading and wanting to get more of her Wolf Gathering series.
In a battle between good versus evil, right will always
come
out on top. Or will it?
Heather Peters is recovering from her recent kidnapping at
the sprawling Spencer ranch in northwest Texas. After
witnessing more in the last few weeks than anyone should
see
in a lifetime, she needs the relaxation the Spencers and
their ranch provide while applying for nursing jobs all
over
the country.
Marcus Cunningham is hovering on the edge of the Spencer
ranch, watching closely to ensure the place is indeed a
refuge where he might find peace from his family, the
leaders of the Romulus, a subversive shifter organization
run by his grandfather.
When Heather is bitten by a rattlesnake and goes down hard
right before Marcusβs eyes, he has a moral obligation to
approach and ensure the woman is okay. Not only is she in
danger, but sheβs his mate.
As events unfold, Marcus must face his mate and the
Spencers
with the information that will implicate his grandfather
and
cause a necessary battle between shifters battling to
preserve their way of life, the North American Reserves,
and
rogue criminals, the Romulus. The future of all shifters
depends on Marcusβs skill and knowledge.
