MY REVIEW
Jagger Castille is a Jaguar Warrior who has gone into a self imposed exile in the jungles of Belize and has not been in human form for two months. Skye Knightly is an Eagle Knight Shifter who is on a mission to close the demon portal that her father had died trying to seal it. Fast on her heels is the big bad Cormac O'Hara who wants to reach the portal first.
Jagger comes to Skye's rescue and tries to help her with her mission. His brothers also help out where they can.
Unfortunately (and do not hate me) I did not particularly like this book. I did not feel the connection between Jagger and Skye at all. It was not until the last chapters that I thought the story started to flow. Very choppy in parts and confusing when switching between characters. I do see the potential with this series with all the characters that are introduced. (especially Declan, can't wait for his story!) The final fight scene was engaging and tense. This book does have lots of different supernatural beings and I did love the eagle shifter aspect. It is something different that not too many other paranormal writers are writing about.
