Blurb/Summary:
An older woman, who thinks she’s done with Love…
Can they come together to save the Earth…and each other?
What’s the worst Christmas present imaginable? A
cheating husband? An angry mob outside your front door? What about Menopause?
Minister Emilia Oxley has gotten all three this Yuletide season and she could
do without them all, thank you very much.
Enter Chief Commander Rarev, the leader of the
Monstrum Kindred. He’s had his eye on Emilia from the start. Her courage and
determination are incredibly attractive to him, as are her lovely full curves.
Also, he can tell by her scent that she’s entering her Second Mating Period—the
time of life when a female is most attractive to a Feline Monstrum. Since Rarev
is a Lionus Monstrum, he can’t help but notice that Emilia is ripe for the
plucking.
After he rescues her from an angry mob, the two of
them find themselves on a mission to Rigellen Five. There they must compete
against three other couples in a series of Trials to earn the right to mine
Yillium. The rare mineral is what the Monstrum need in order to defend the
Earth from the Darklings, ravenous creatures from another universe which are
threatening to overrun the planet. Only if Em and Rarev win the Rigellen Trials
can they gain the rights to the Yillium. But since the Rigellen people believe
in public displays affection, the Trials are an intimate affair—extremely intimate.
Can Em and Rarev come together to save the
Earth…and might they find love in the process? Read Loved by the Lion to find
out!
*Author's note--there is a scene in here that
might bother anyone who has ever been attacked before, but I promise it comes
out all right in the end. Please read responsibly!
Review:
This is the best time to jump into this series if you haven’t been following Evangeline Anderson already. Although this is book 40 in the series the author has introduced a new type of Kindred called Monstrum and this is still very early on in the development.
I really enjoyed the journey between Minister Emilia Oxley and Chief Commander Rarev. They are both brave, self-sacrificing, and loyal servants to their people. Their willingness to sacrifice themselves and make the best decisions for their constituents is what brings them together.
Loved by the Lion has a lot of smoldering suspense that leads to burning desire between Emilia and Rarev. The Kindred type may be different, but the Monstrum have all the protective instincts of the original Kindred. This protective streak added to a very interesting story with creative and imaginative characters.
I received this ARC for an honest review.
