“Ah, fuck,” he uttered raggedly against her lips.
“This wasn’t supposed to happen. You weren’t supposed to happen, Devony.”
She hadn’t been prepared for him, either.
“You’re not alone anymore,” he uttered, his deep voice raw with tenderness…and desire.
“Make me believe it, Rafe.”
I received this book for free from Publisher in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.After the ending of Claimed In Shadows, then reading the blurb for Break The Day, I was seriously worried about Rafe. He had faced a lot and I was scared that he was going to be scarred for life. My fear was quickly assuaged within the first chapter or so, and I felt a ton better.
We are still after the elusive Opus Nostrum, and the investigation continues. Rafe is determined to find out who nearly killed all he loves. Then he finds a female who's goals are the same but she actually did lose everyone she loved to this group. They meet up investigating the same group of criminals. Devony is a day walker so she can hide her true nature a lot easier than Rafe. I thought that if this group they were looking into was working for Opus, that they would refuse the help of a Breed, but they accept him easily enough. Although that might be for the wrong reasons.
I felt like we jumped into the action fast and that while there was definitely the romance portion between Rafe and Devony, the intensity of the fight against Opus was at the forefront. I was kind of disappointed with just how badly Devony took Rafe's situation and really didn't expect her to go as far as she did. I'm so glad Rafe did not give up on her and we do continue onto an HEA after some terribly tense moments.
Hillary Huber does a great job on this series and I enjoyed listening to this installment of the Midnight Breed. I'm feeling much more comfortable with the characters. I was initially a little strange with them because they were all children of my favorite characters, but I seem to be over that and am seeing them as the adults they are. I'm excited for the next book and see how much the Order grows and how close they can get to Opus. Opus has some wicked dangerous tricks up their sleeves and my worry for all my Breed favorites is at stake!This review was originally posted on Rantings of a Reading Addict
