We have seen lots of Prophet Lily and Caleb in previous books and i am so glad that they get to have a happy ever after, especially as Lily was only mated for two weeks three hundred years ago. A long time for her to be celibate.

Caleb was perfect for lily and knew just how to push her buttons so the fire in her personality came out which does eventually end up being a good thing. After this book i am really looking forward to seeing how things pan out in Janie's book and how the whole war ends up finishing and the factions end up.

Vampire Caleb Donovan and Prophet Lily Sotheby have a history together. Ancient history. Well, a couple of centuries anyway. Way back when, she and Caleb had a thing that could have turned into a lifetime commitment except Lily’s dad chose her to marry Prophet Miles Sotheby and Lily chose duty over her heart. When Miles died, the mark of the Prophet transferred to Lily and she's been one of the three prophets ever since. But now Caleb is a Prophet, too and with the Kurjan-created virus wiping out Lily’s mating mark, she can have sex again. Caleb intends to claim her body and maybe her heart, but he’ll have to wait for a cure before mating with her. Assuming she also wants him. Silly question.

Quick and steamy, this short read is a perfect snack between longer books in the series. It gives Lily and Caleb’s backstory as well as their present and a sticky situation involving dark prophecies and the upcoming peace talks between the vampires, Kurjans, and the demons. The steamy scenes are extra delicious and the characters are wonderful. The plot is a bit short-changed and I think that’s only because it’s such a short book. Otherwise this is a great addition to the series and brings us one step closer to the series end.

Love Rebecca's storytelling and perfect for my readers who like the hotter end of the spectrum.

4 star

You can always count on Zanetti to give you a wild ride. You have thrill, raciness and just plain hotness!

This is a novella which I wish was a full length book because both characters have been developing over the course of this series and deserved such. However that did not override the over all story or the enjoyment of reading this book.

Caleb and Lily have been circling around each other pretty much since the beginning. She chose duty over love, with an arranged marriage via her father. Now that she however is widowed, was infected by Virus 27, and lost her late husband’s marking, Caleb intends to win back the lost love of his life.

It was nice to see both of these characters come full circle and developed even more. Another awesome installment to an already great series.
