Blurb/Summary:

Torin is a trained assassin. He has never met a female who’s his match…until he is paired with Special Agent Sky’lar on Portex Three. Together the two of them must track a serial killer through space, but in the process someone is going to get Pierced...

Special Agent Sky’lar is a rare Pitch-Blood Kindred female. She has lived most of her life on Portex Three and never even seen one of her own kind since her mother died when she was young. Imagine her surprise when she walks into work at the Peace Keeper Station and is informed by her Captain that she has a new partner. Not only that, but her partner is a Kindred warrior and a male. Since females are dominant on Portex Three, this is a new and unwelcome development for Sky. How can a male possibly make a good partner?

Commander Torin works for the Kindred Elite Espionage group—he’s been trained as a spy and an assassin but right now he’s tracking a killer. A mysterious entity has been murdering Kindred Ambassadors and the rulers of planets where females are in charge. Zetta Prime and Yonnie Six have already been hit and Portex Three is third on the killer’s list. Torin knows that Sky doesn’t like working with him but he doesn’t give a damn—he’s willing to do whatever it takes to catch the murderer, even if it means baring parts of his soul that he’s kept secret, even from himself.

Now the killer is on the loose and instead of another Ambassador, Sky is in his sights. Will Torin be able to stop him before he kills again? And will Sky survive the killer’s murderous intentions? You’ll have to read this Enemies to Lovers, He Falls First, Warrior Heroine, HEA novel, Pierced, to find out!

Review:

The main characters Torin and Sky are tasked with catching a serial killer. This story is non-stop action with great plot twists. Sky and Torin have smoking hot chemistry and make a great team.

Their journey to finding the killer also allows for some personal growth. Both characters have their world views challenged and expanded during their quest.

Pierced is a fun story with great characters. It’s a wonderful addition to the Brides of the Kindred series. Evangeline Anderson also lets readers know what she expects to write next, muse willing, at the end of the story.

There is a D/s theme throughout the story and the warning at the beginning is regarding the crime scenes. I personally didn’t have a problem with the scenes, but that doesn’t mean someone else won’t. The crime scenes are part of the story adding an element of horror, but they are not the whole story.  

I received this ARC for an honest review.
