This was different from the previous Breed novels. Again, characters were unfamiliar and it's like a side story. Megan is an empath and she reminded me of Nalini Singh's "Psy-Changeling" series, and Braden is your usual alpha male - dominant, arrogant, possessive and protective.

The story pace was agonizingly slow, the mystery worked out well though. It started with Jonas Wyatt's thoughts and ended the same way, much like opening and closing a book. Sex scenes were few but the heat made up for it. The setting was different, the only time Megan and Braden were at the Sanctuary was the end part, mostly they were in the desert.

The military equipment like vehicles and gadgets were cool though, it's obvious Ms Leigh did research on them and the advanced technology. I liked the empath angle, it made Megan different from the other heroines, but her spunk, attitude and independence put her in line w/the other females in this series. I'll keep on reading.
