Description

All New from the #1 New York Times bestselling author.
As brutal as the undead he hunted, Zacarias De La Cruz was a master executioner. Now his stark and savage journey has ended. For his brothers, Zacarias had walked to the edge of madness, but with centuries as a killing machine now left to the past and without a hunt to define him, Zacarias wonders, for the first time in his life, who he really is.

The answer awaits him back home, in Peru, in the betrayal of a woman who is readying her trap, in the vengeance of an old enemy, in the inevitable consequences of a bloody family legacy-and in the deliverance of a lifemate he never could have imagined...

From the Hardcover edition.

    We have waited and anticipated the story of the last De la Cruz brother finding his lifemate. This was a let down. I was rooting so hard for this one. Spent a lot of money for a hard cover copy. No ma’am Mrs. Feehan. This could have been so much better. Where was her gift? He didn’t take her to a cave and even try to court her. She had no backbone at all. And push come to shove if she had no material there could have been a small brothers reunion and their lifemates. Great vampire fight tho. Only he could have destroyed that one. Ahhhh!!!!

    Not as strong a story as I'd hoped for this character. Very repetitive, like readers would forget what and who he is. Excellent fight with the vampire.

    By the end of the first chapter I wanted throw this book in the fireplace. Only two things stopped me: 1. The obscene amount of money I paid for the hard back and 2. I don't have a fireplace. The Delacruz brothers have always been one of my favorites. And her previous books about them were amazing. But this one was such a huge disappointment. How could she write such a horrible story for a man who had gone through so much. As a result of this story have had yet to read the others; even Skylar and Dimitri's and I've been waiting years for that one.
  • Awesome Book!!!

    I really enjoy this series, but I have to admit that this wasn't my favorite. Parts were very good while other parts that I would have expected the author to flesh it out based on past books were bland and not as clear as usual. However, if you enjoy the series I would recommend this book. If this your first attempt at reading the series read an earlier book first or much of the story line will be missing.

    I truly hope this is not the end of the series but the story of course gets three out of five stars. We all should not be surprised by the violence. Zacarias has lived so long, gone through such troubles and has kept the light of himself. His lifemate has done something that no one else could, she is keeping him from the darkness, even if it comes with a price. He deserves love, happiness but truth be told, as good a job as Christine Feehan tried to do with this novel, she did not touch the base of the man we all expected a great story from. Having read all the novels back to back, I'm astounded she made such an unruly mistake as to give him someone who's not perfect for him. She's disobedient yes but he needs that, she simply forgot to give the woman a backbone in which she needs to stand up to the unruly predator. It's humdrum but I sat through because I needed something to read on my iPad during a flight. OVERALL: 3/5 stars Miss Feehan did her best but she had mistakes. More than once descriptions change as did this magical old language. It needs a rewrite with hard editing but not so much that it changes the story. A woman with such talent should know better than to give this man a woman who does not suit what he needs. *~*~*~*Miss Black*~*~*~*

    There are shining moments in this book, but sadly not enough to redeem it. Zacarius is not so evil that he cannot be redeemed, he will never be whole because his lifemate will never be. It is great set-up for maybe his downfall in a later book. As a stand-alone book, not so impressive. There are some beautifully emotional moments, but moments don't make a whole book. Worth reading, but maybe borrow from the library.
