Book Description:
Being a Succubus has its perks…until the hunter becomes the hunted.
For half-breed succubus Ava Hawley, hunting supernatural foes is worth all the risks and rewards. But when a wolf shifter is responsible for kidnapping her sister, the mission becomes personal. Ava is ordered to track down the bad boy and turn him over to her boss. That is, until she meets the dangerously sexy shifter and realizes her charm—the kiss of death—is no match for the charms of her opponent.
Alpha werewolf Killian Reid is on the run from a demon mistress, but someone else is on his tail—a stunning seductress with more sex appeal than any woman ought to have. And Killian can't resist her. Proving his innocence will be a challenge, but with every moment that he spends with her, Ava’s self-control weakens. And as their attraction grows, she knows she’ll have to rely on the shifter she'd been sent to capture, or they’ll both become victims to another predator…

“We don't have time, love.” He took hold of her
chin, running his thumb over her bottom lip. Not giving it too much thought—and
because she wanted to—she thrust her tongue out and licked him. The taste of
mornings in spring and mint burst into her mouth. She gasped softly and his
eyes darkened. “Save it,” he growled low. “I know what you're trying to do.”

She couldn't help but wonder if he was referring to
them again. The thought of them together had crossed her mind a couple of
times, but she couldn't envision being with the wolf. A possessive shifter was
dangerous all around. The man's aura radiated nothing but danger and violence.
The telltale hint of darkness and dominance gave it away. Besides, wolf

My Review
Oh Holy Hawtness! This is so much fun, and it's steamy, and there's some excellent characters :) I love that. So, Ava is a half succubus, and she is also seriously set on capturing Killian. He's a shifter, he's hawt, and he's definitely the bad boy. She is dead set on blaming Killian for kidnapping her sister Shia, but if it's not him, it's someone he knows and she will make him help her. She will do whatever it takes to save her sister. And though she has her heart set, she doesn't realize she's gunna lose her heart to the same one who stole everything else, or so she thinks. I seriously liked how this one played out.
Ava is pretty bad ass. She is courageous, and brave, and loyal. She's also got a fun attitude. But Killian is a force she was not prepared to battle. She wanted to hate him, but he's got something that pulls her. And the fun part, Killian knew Ava was after him, he even liked her for her tracking skills and keeping up with him. But like Ava, he was totally knocked off his feet when he met her. Oh my goodness, their meeting was just awesome. And he's set on getting her to bond with him. They need to work together now to figure out what happened, rescue Ava's sister, save themselves from the ones who are really after them, and find the bad guy. Man that was an epic countdown and fight at the end too. I loved them together.
The plot was definitely a fun one. The romance was also steamy and hot. But really, the characters kept me glued to the pages. I am really hoping that though this one wrapped up, there is going to be more to this, like a series. I would LOVE to see that. The writing was well done, and it had a little bit for everyone. I will totally buy the next book, if the author gives me that little gift! I couldn't put this one down, and I want more. so 5 PAWS!!
