What can I say folks? This one hit it out of the park. But you know how I feel about AJ's books. Even so, this one really scratched my many itches. Here's why:

NOBODY WRITES MM INTENSE EMOTIONAL EROTIC ROMANCE LIKE AJA JAMES. HANDS DOWN. AMEN.

Sin and Zai were FIRE. Both are alpha males, which is rare to see in MM romance. The most common pairing is alpha with beta (twink), size difference, or both are beta. This is one of the very rare MM romances I've read where BOTH MCs are sooooo alpha and sooooo right for each other. Equals. Partners. In every way. That alone will make me give this book 5 stars.

Add to that, 2 alphas who are also butt virgins???? WOW. checking all my boxes and then some!

But that's just ONE of the many things I love about this book.

THE ACTION JUST DOESN'T STOP.

From page one, you're thrown in the rollercoaster ride and you only get off with wobbly legs at the very end. And then you're so high and dizzy and ADDICTED you want to jump right back on. You want to find out MORE MORE MORE!

What's going on with Ben??
What's next with the JE's games? Quests?
Who is the mysterious Seventh Sister??

This was a turning point in the series. The momentum is building like an ocean swell. It's about to come crashing, and I want to be there for it!

Bring it on!!

BE FOREWARNED - READ AJ'S NOTE IN THE BEGINNING OF THE BOOK. PEOPLE WHO HAVEN'T READ OTHER BOOKS IN BOTH HER SERIES SHOULD PROCEED WITH CAUTION. YOU MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO KEEP UP.

OMG that ending!!!

Firstly, Sol's eagle form isn't a bald eagle, so excuse the approx. gif.

Second, I think I figured out what the red sort of dragon looking image after each chapter of the book. I think it's meant to be Sol's eagle form, not a dragon..."
