Description:

Some nights never end.

Some desires never die….

She ventures where no one else dares—into realms of peril and pleasure. But will this next journey be her last?

Shape-shifting werewolf and vampire Riley Jenson is through with death–causing it, solving it, surviving it. Her soul mate, Kye Murphy, is dead–and at Riley’s own hands. Not even the seductive embrace of her vampire lover, Quinn, can fully ease her mind, for she has begun questioning everything that makes her Riley–including her job at the Directorate.

Now, the ritualistically slain bodies of ex-cons have started turning up. Reluctantly, Riley takes the case, but something even worse is waiting in the wings. For a vicious enemy from her past is determined to strip Riley of everything that gives her life any meaning: her lover, her brother–and even her own identity. Can Riley survive this ultimate assault? All she knows is, she must fight one last time to find answers, before everything goes dark forever…

My Review:

Riley is mourning her soul mate Kye's death at her own hands, and the death of her friend Kade. She starts to realize her dream of having a family and leaving the violent life of a Guardian behind. Then there are the changes to her body because of a drug that was given to her.

A killer is at work leaving slain bodies of ex-cons around, Riley is back on the job. But an enemy from her past is apparently clear on making her life a living hell.  Her life will never be the same and now she risks losing everything.

Although I was happy with the ending of the series Moon Sworn, confused me at parts and for some reason I just could not get into the story.  With Moon Sworn being the last in the series, it had me crying out for more of Riley and Quinn. 

My Rating:
