Nesting Instinct: Book III: Delphine's Destiny

Rate this book
Delphine was abandoned on the steps of a church as an infant, and spent most of her life alone and abused. At a young age she turned to drinking, drugs and sex to numb the pain of her lonely existence. In a drug induced haze, she wraps a stolen car around a tree and sets a series of events into motion that will change her life forever, one way or another.

Angus has spent his entire life fighting for one cause or another, as a warrior. He never anticipated that this fragile, half dead woman who would sell her soul for her next hit, was destined to be his mate.

What happens when Delphine's shocking past is revealed and nothing is as it seems to be? Will she find the strength to kick her lifelong habits and accept the love of the people around her?

I've been plowing through this series because the characters are so great. Book 3 had a few more formating errors and just plain typos than the first two books, but I've fallen in love with the world that this author has created so I am overlooking all that. I hope she'll eventually get an editor who can clean everything up because the Nesting Instinct universe is just so damn fun to live in.

Delphine's story is by far the darkest of the books thus far. But as with any romance, there is a happy ending.

Entertaining Story

This is the third book in the series that follows a new nest of vampires. This story follows Delphine, a drug addict, thief and prostitute. Left outside a church shortly after her birth she went into the system with just her name. After many years of truly awful experiences, she now drifts from place to place, selling her body, stealing enough to keep buying enough drugs. This time she ended up impaled on a tree when her stolen car hit a pothole at speed.

When the doctor recognises her as a half-breed vampire, he gets in touch with the local nest as it’s their responsibility to care for the young woman whilst they try to find her family. Predictably enough, one of the vampires from the nest, Angus, recognises her as his mate and instantly takes over her care whilst they try and track down her family.

Delphine is a very damaged young woman and has spent a long time relying on drugs to cope. She never wanted to get clean until she was found by the vampires and then the love and care they gave started to heal a little hurt, bit by bit.

Angus is a larger than life, man mountain, Scottish warrior type. He’s also incredibly sweet with Delphine.

I also like how this isn’t just about Delphine finding her mate, but also her family and new friends, something she’s never had before. She also gets some serious talk therapy as well as the blood of her mate. It’s not an instant fix for everything and I like that she has to work for it.

There are quite a few typos and grammatical errors in this book, but it doesn’t spoil the flow too much. I just thought I’d mention it in case it drives people nuts.

I like this easy to read series, that doesn’t shy away from difficult topics but kind of glides across the top of them so they don’t go too dark in the descriptions. I’ll definitely be reading more.
