Rate this book
Merri loves her job as a librarian in her hometown but, lately, her magic has been restless, pushing her to leave. Uncertain what is causing it, she takes a leap of faith and visits her sister in Rockfort. When she’s given a mating dream about a man with brunet hair with a white streak, she recognizes what was pulling her to the town.

Gawain, a peregrine falcon shifter, is an archeologist specializing in paranormal history. He finds joy in discovering lost things and helping preserve the past. A friend’s call for help leads him to Rockfort, where he discovers information about shifters believed extinct. 

As Merri and Gawain set off on an adventure to find the long-lost shifter settlement, will they unearth a world-changing discovery? Or will digging for the truth put their lives at risk?

Linked in History Rules!

Linked in History is the 5th book in the
Nightwood Clan series. Ot is very interesting to see how the History of paranormals set beside humans. This book reads exactly like a history book.
It is a very serious book that mixes with Gawain and Merri's honeymoon. The house and all the men's mates is a family that keeps getting added too. The storyline is intense as more and more people come together. The secrets thst have been kept through the years have to come out. There isn't a written history and they are going to try to change that. Character development is intense because you have current history and past history and the secrets each species kept from other's. This book has much to the storyline and helps you see how they came about. It also lays the groundwork for the future and how they grow into a bigger family. This series is intense and the world building is uniquely fascinating. I highly recommend this author because she takes her work seriously and her books are better for it.

Linked in History by Harper Dakota is book 5 of the Nightwood Clan series, a paranormal romance with vampires, shifters, witches, fae, and more.

This is archeologist shifter Gawain and librarian witch Merri’s story as they travel in search of the history of unicorn shifters. They set on a path to try and discover the true past only to find themselves instead in danger. Will they uncover the truth and make it back safely?!

I’ve said this for every review in this series but I’ll say it again… I love that this story is about friends of all different kinds that come together to form a Clan that care for each other like a family would. In theory you could read this book as a standalone as some things are repeated and explained, however I would suggest reading the first four books to get the most out of the story.

This is book 5 in the nightwood clan series, letting us into the story of merri and Gawain, and what a story it was! I was glued to the pages, not wanting to put it down. I have loved and I mean loved this series and how each addition is making the family grow bigger and bigger, with different paranormal characters.

The way the author has wrote their world is unique and beautiful. The journey we get taken on through history there secrets was fabulous.

This series was definitely intense full of twists you don't see coming. It's packed with so much action, spice, mystery, secrets and so much more. I can't wait to read more in this series. Highly recommend!

Linked in History is book five of the Nightwood Clan Series.

This was one of the more fun and adventurous books in the series. We get Merri who is a librarian that is getting restless and wants some adventure, as well as Gawain who is an archeologist who is looking for a lost shifter settlement. These two pair up together and discover they are fated mates. There is a lot of spice scenes between these two as they travel on the road having an adventure.

We do eventually reconnect with the Nightwood Clan, but this book was more discovering new places and meeting new people.

Merri and Gawain are the characters highlighted in this Nightwood Clan series. They are both very interested in history and decided to go check out a site that Gawain has been researching to find some evidence of historic animal species. It took a little while to get to the heart of this book, but once things started happening it was hard to put down until the end.

Merri and Gawain finally get their honeymoon, sort of.

Going on a dig on a trip at the same time.

Both of them getting a chance to do something they both enjoy and see a bit of the country at the same time.

Along the way they meet up with old friends, make new discoveries and new enemies but being alone out in their RV and getting closer together.

Nothing beats coming home.

Especially when you never know what's out to get you.

Another great edition to this series.

I really love getting to know more of how this story unfolds as well as getting to know each character more even if the focus of each book is on a different mated pairing.

This one was especially fun because we got to go on an archeological dig with Duncan and Marge.

I love this series so much and I’m not usually a ONR fan but this one works so well!!!

Merri and Gawain are so amazing. And their story kept me interested when I usually get bored and read in little spurts 😜 harper is an amazing writer Nx kept my attention the whole way through! I didn’t not see some of the twists coming. I’m so sad there’s only one book left in the series. 😭😭😭

I’ve been enjoying the books in this series and this one was just as good. It was great to see the story evolve a bit more in this one and I really enjoyed getting to know more about Gawain & Merri. Their relationship is very sweet and that comes across on the page, just seeing them enjoying being together is great. Enjoyable read.

Let's travel

This book made me want to take a vacation. The whole time they were on the road made me think, any minute now a hunter is going to get them. But in a way that never happens. Thank goodness. Can't wait to read the next one.

Another great adventure in this fated mates series. It would appear no matter where in the world you go things can be very dangerous for paranormal in the human world.

Brilliant read.

I enjoyed Merri and Garwain's story. They were a cute couple. It was very interesting and detailed with the descriptions of the settings, information about the digs, and all the places they visited on their trip. A little splash of danger lingering, and as always, I love when the Clan is all together.

I'm looking forward to the next one.
