This is the first book that I have read by Valerie Twombly and although it was in the middle of the series, I did not feel lost in the story.
Baal is a demon, the strongest, sexiest, and most loyal to Hades. He is also protecting the human race from destruction. When Ranata is about to be used as a human sacrifice, Baal rushes in and saves her, realizing at the same time that she is his mate. This is a problem for Baal because after watching the human woman that he loved take her life, he has sworn never to love or give his heart to anyone ever again.
Ranata needs to save her sister, and if that means allowing Baal to help her than that is want she will do. Not understanding the paranormal world around her, or the fact that there is a war brewing, Ranata has a hard time coming to terms with everything that she learns. When it is discovered that she is part fae and the new Queen, she will need to make a decision to mate with Baal in order to learn how to use her powers, rescue her sister and bring her fae people into the war.
As Baal and Ranata bond, mate and work together, the feelings that they try so hard to fight come flooding in. Each is willing to sacrifice for the other, and each will be tested to see how far they will go to protect the other.
I really enjoyed the story and look forward to more in this series. I give it 4 super stars.
