Publisher's summary

Only passion can soothe the beast within....

Known only as Jag, he leads the Knights of White against the soulless Darkland Beasts who took his wife and his life. Jag is immortal, destined to live with the vengeance he feels in his heart and the dreams that haunt his soul. Sensual dreams of a woman. Dreams that threaten to unleash the beast within....  

Karen Gibson is an innocent mortal, unwittingly thrown into this millennia-old battle, and - unwillingly - under Jag's protection. She and Jag are about to discover they have met before - in the dreams they share.  

Neither trusts the other. Neither can survive alone. The secret of those erotic dreams may be all that saves them - if Jag can only accept it. At risk is Karen's life and Jag's immortal soul....

"Oh Plot where art thou!"😭

no story here at all, just angst and sex. moody immortal meet clueless damsel, and they sex every second of the day, literally. Same dialogue and monologue over and over again. I had to stop 1/3 of the way, not worth my time

Waited days between readings

I tried for weeks to get through this, hoping it could call to me however the only thing driving the story is sex so far and honestly, that isn’t my cup of tea. I wanted more from the characters but I wasn’t able to find it. Sigh...another one bites the dust

Goodish.

It was a little hard to follow. The story idea was good could have used a few more chapters and changed some of the character names so they don't all sound the same it made it very confusing. Again the story plot was interesting just felt like some of the story was cut or missing.

Wanted More

The ending was a little anti-climactic to me. The story was okay, but the dramatic/action scenarios were just a little boring to me.

Liked this alright

This was a nice soulmates fantasy romance. It took a while for me to get invested but the beginning was a good hook.

An intriguing, captivating and thrilling journey to go on. A definite page turner that will keep you on the edge of your seat. I enjoyed this story immensely. Eric Michael Summerer did a fantastic job bringing this story to life.

Good start to series but lacking a little

I found this book interesting but lacking in detail and description. the second book does a better job of explaining what the beasts and the knights truly are. While the hero is somewhat emotionally tortured, he does finally give in and come around with a strong female. Looking forward to further books.
