Like all paranormals Clove is waiting for his mate but until then, he sees no problem spending time with Elan.  When Elan needs a little emotional support as he reunites with his brother, Clove is right there with him, and so is Clove’s mate.  To make things even more intense when Clove and Kinkade show up at their new home, they are meeting with another mate, one who just happens to be a Kappa.  While Clove is thrilled, Kinkade isn’t, which makes things hard on everyone. 

Clove Sutherland is the seventh book in the Beyond the Marius Brothers series.  The story is fast paced and will keep the readers interest; however readers really need to be reading this series and the Marius Brothers series together to keep from getting a little lost.  This story centers on Clove, a vampire warrior readers have met in previous stories.  While readers will be happy to see him find his mate, they also know that the author will most likely not make their pairing an easy one.   This of course, is when Jordy shows up.  I was glad to see Jordy as one of the mates as I really felt bad for him when we last saw him. 

The men have many obstacles to overcome and, while their issues are tough, I like that all the men, including Kinkade, are willing to try and make things better.  Of course, no book in this series would be complete without members of previous stories showing up to help.  Even with the issues that they face, the men are determined to make sure they are claimed.  The passion that exists between Clove and Kinkade, as well as Clove and Jordy, is intense.  It also gives the readers a glimpse of what will occur when all three men finally come together.  

Clove Sutherland is a great addition to this ongoing series.  Not only does it draw the reader into one mating, but also gives you a glimpse of another.  Like other stories in this series, this book is sure to hold your interest and leave you wondering about what is next.
