New York Times bestseller Kresley Cole introduces The Dacians: Realm of
Blood and Mist, a new paranormal series following the royal bloodline
of Dacia, a vampire kingdom hidden within the Lore of the Immortals
After Dark.
Shadow’s Claim
features Prince Trehan, a ruthless master assassin who will do anything
to possess Bettina, his beautiful sorceress mate, even compete for her
hand in a blood-sport tournament— to the death.
HE WON’T BE DENIED
Trehan Daciano, known as the
Prince of Shadows, has spent his life serving his people—striking in the
night, quietly executing any threat to their realm. The coldly
disciplined swordsman has never desired anything for himself—until he
beholds Bettina, the sheltered ward of two of the Lore’s most fearsome
villains.
SHE’S BOUND TO ANOTHER
Desperate to earn her guardians’
approval after a life-shattering mistake, young Bettina has no choice
but to marry whichever suitor prevails—even though she’s lost her heart
to another. Yet one lethal competitor, a mysterious cloaked swordsman,
invades her dreams, tempting her with forbidden pleasure.
A BATTLE FOR HER BODY AND SOUL
Even if Trehan can survive the
punishing contests to claim her as his wife, the true battle for
Bettina’s heart is yet to come. And unleashing a millennium’s worth of
savage need will either frighten his Bride away—or stoke Bettina’s own
desires to a fever pitch. . . .
Rating 3/5
As usual Kresley Cole excels at her writing craft. Hot guy's that are all Alpha and are in serious need of saving. Trehan Daciano meets all of these qualities and is super hot hero. However, Bettina is not exactly a likable character. Her shallow, silliness and disregard for the fact that Cas is womanizing annoyance goes beyond the pale. I never could relate as to why she would want the other guy to almost the bitter end. A guy that didn't want her vs. the Trehan who lusted and general gave up so much for her.
The writing is great but the heroine is much to be desired. Still a good read just not what I'm used to from Mrs. Cole.
