Mystic Renaldi might have been born to guard the border between the human and supernatural worlds, but in her mind she will never measure up to the other Renaldi Angelini. She can dance, mix drinks, play hostess, manage the music and even sing along with a band, all the things necessary for a good party — but not what's required of a hunter.
When she slips away from the Howl for an adventure in Las Vegas, little does she know she's stepping into her Angelini destiny. Her first hunt awaits, along with three alpha males who are ready to convince her she's the equal of any Renaldi female.
For Roman, Mystic is the mate who'll appease the gryphon he was before becoming vampire. For Hawk, she's the mate who'll gain him a pack of his own. For Christian, a lone wolf, she's the mate he never dreamed possible. But once she's theirs, she becomes so much more than they imagined. Nothing's left to chance when an Angelini takes a mate. And everything is claimed — body, heart and soul.
Jory has been writing since childhood and has never outgrown being a daydreamer. When she's not hunched over her computer, lost in the muse and conjuring up new heroes and heroines, she can usually be found reading, riding her horses, or hiking with her dogs.
Good read although the plot wasn't as strong as the other two Angelini books. Jory Strong still delivered great characters and hot writing.
Mystic is from a different Angelini family from the heroines of the first two books. It's set in Las Vegas again so the characters from the first two books make occasional appearances. [The Las Vegas they live in has only a nodding acquaintance with reality - but makes a good backdrop for the series.:]
Mystic ends up with three mates rather than the usual two - two wolf shifters [one of whom is a cop and raised as a human, one of whom wants to form his own pack:] and a very ancient vampire who was originally a gryphon... Sexual dynamics, power politics, and various crimes abound. And did I mention there is a wizard who digs the whole 'evil overlord' scenario?
The Angelini series 1 Skye's Trail 2 Syndelle's Possession 3 Mystic's Run
Lots and lots and lots of sex, mostly one on one as Mystic forges a bond with each of her mates but there's a couple ménage and one scene with all four. I really was interested in the story, would have liked more storyline.

Another Angelini. Mystic, raised by a wolf mother and her 2 vampire fathers, not in the traditional Angelini way. She has no fight training and no idea she had a wolf of her own. Roman: created and ruined by old magic. A gryphon before becoming a vampire. Now they are split. He is an eagle or a lion. Hawk a wolf, who let her have her freedom even though she was destined to be his mate. Christian: A lone wolf who grew up human. A police officer who was just passing through. A great story of rogue vampires and wolves created by a sorcerer. The taint and hunting bring all 4 together along with Mystics best friends, the twins Gabe and Gabby. Lots of action. A lot of m/f sex as they all get to know each other. Some m/f/m then at the last m/m/m/f. No m/m except Brann and Rafe. Hopefully there will be an Angelini 4
Love Mystic. Sweet. Gentle. Kind. She has her 2 best friends with her. They are on an adventure. She meets a cop who is wolf. Then she meets Roman who is very other. And Hawk. Well. What a surprise!! The twins get the adventure of a lifetime and Mystic finds unconditional love. Great story. Please tell me Altier and Gabby meet again
I loved this series it kept me reading, which doesn't happen nearly enough. The men were hot the sex scenes hotter. Not for the skittish though there is some serious freaky sex going on! I would recommend this book to those that like this type of book.
