This one was actually closer to 2 stars, but I bumped it up to 3 because I liked the secondary character's stories and enjoyed the progression of the overall series story arc. I found this highly disappointing after completely loving the first book in the series. I did not care for either the H (he was whiny--and nothing is worse than a whiny HERO!) or the h (who was just mostly distracted and feeling sorry for herself throughout the book) and didn't believe their HEA.

I admit that my interest in Shannon K Butcher's books was initially sparked from my huge fanship of her husband's writing. But I have stuck around and continue to read this series because I like Ms. Butcher's style.

The mythology behind the Sentinel Wars is interesting and from my experience in the PNR genre -- unique. PNR for me is hit or miss. I tend to get bored after the resolution of the romance. I get bored with the use of the same trope -- big tortured guy meets virginal tiny woman and sa ...more
