Eve Blake is a vampire
who writes suspense-but even she couldn’t
dream up the contents of the crate sent to her by a friend; a naked man in a
cage-a gorgeous naked man. Logan Callahan is an eagle shifter whose own
brother lied and betrayed him to their clan. The result: until Eve’s
friend stumbles across him, Logan has been locked in a cage-for 50 years.
It doesn’t take Logan long to talk his way out of the cage, but once he has, all he can think about is getting into Eve’s bed-even though he knows he should be hunting down the brother who betrayed him. Sydney Somers is an author who I’ve only recently become acquainted with; already, I love her work. Resurrection, the first work of hers I read, was like a catapult ride. This installment in the Talons series by Samhain, while not quite as turbulent, is a more than satisfactory read in an already very satisfactory series. Her dialogue is fresh and well-written, and her characters are too. Logan is so delicious you just want to take a bite out of him. Eve is a confident lady, who makes the perfect match for Logan. While the story’s length is short, nothing about the character’s encounters seems rushed or forced-an all-too-common flaw in stories of this length. Both Logan and Eve come across as warm and likeable, and their relationship as believable and enjoyable. This is an author I fully enjoy reading, whatever pace she sets. I look forward to her next book with pleasurable anticipation.Reviewed by Lee M
