When
Braxton fell in love with Xander two years ago, he knew this was the man for
him. When he allowed the shifter to
claim him, he knew that for all intents and purposes it was for better or
worse. He just did not realize that the
worst meant he wanted to kick the shit out of his mate.
When
the author started the Moonlight Breed
series, she did so by introducing the readers to Xander and Braxton. Xander was a shifter who, because of his
white pelt, had a target on his head. He
is also the Alpha of a makeshift pack with a variety of other shifters, all of
whom have white pelts. Braxton, a human
with an abusive ex, is also an author.
The young man falls instantly for the hunky shifter and, after many
obstacles, the two finally find their happily ever after. In Leap
in the Dark, Ms. Evans brings back these two characters and introduces a
whole new mess of problems.
At
the end of book seven, Xander is injured during a rescue attempt. This newest
book picks up shortly after, with Braxton learning to deal with Xander’s
attitude surrounding his injury. I could
understand the actions and reasoning of both men and found this particular area
of their relationship realistic. That
being said, I did have a little trouble accepting how fast Xander overcame his
attitude after only a few words from Spiro.
While
this story is about Braxton and Xander, many previous characters show up. I love the interaction between Keaton and
Braxton, as well as his interaction with several of the new characters. I also can’t wait until the new moonlighter’s
(shifters with white pelts) get their own stories.
