Lajos has always been a loner, but now his heart is longing for the wild human that captured his wolf.
When Meisha comes home and finds a strange man in her kitchen, she does what any sensible person would do. She beats the crap out of him first, then asks questions after. When he explains her best friend is in mortal danger, Meisha knows the whole mess—including a recent murder and the threats on her friend’s life—may be her fault, and she’s determined to get to the bottom of it. And no sexy stranger is going to stop her.
Lajos Farkas isn’t expecting to meet a spitfire martial artist when he’s on a mission to figure out who’s stealing from Dark Wolf Enterprises, and he certainly doesn’t expect her to insist on butting in on his investigation. But getting rid of Meisha is seemingly impossible, and when his wolf decides she’s his life-mate, suddenly he realizes he’ll do anything to keep her close and grow old with her.
If they can just stay alive long enough to make that possible…
4 out of 5 (very good)
Independent Reviewer for Archaeolibrarian - I Dig Good Books!
This is book two in the Dark Wolf Enterprises series and runs almost parallel to book one, so you don't need to have read that one before this. But you should, not least because I said so, but THAT book is a five star read.
This one, not so much.
Oh, don't get me wrong, this is still a solid 4 star read. But we don't learn anything new about who is stealing from Dark Wolf, or more importantly, WHY.
And Lajos' imprinting on Meisha isn't immediate, like Kristof and Trudy's is. It kinda creeps up on him. And I found myself missing that sucker-punch to the solar plexus feeling.
I did enjoy Meisha's back story, her history. When it all becomes, why she breaks Lajos' nose, finding him in her kitchen, it makes total sense. And you do feel her frustration when Lajos leaves her behind.
I'm assuming the elder brother will have a story, because you can't have his two baby brothers mated and the Alpha not. But you just know he's gonna fall hard, and fall fast. And his brothers will make sure they dish it out good and proper!
Whether he is NEXT though, I don't know. I'd love to read whoever is next, and any other books, because I have an inkling as to the WHY and I think the clues are starting to come through. I wanna see if I'm right!
A solid, four star read, just not as good as book one.
