Stubborn, lethal, and from Jersey…what more could a Viking warrior want from his woman?
The Gathering, Book 1
Neecy Lawrence, winged warrior for a Viking goddess and second-in-command of the fierce Crows, doesn’t know what to do with a nice guy. As it is, making up for a past she’d sooner forget leaves her barely polite most days. But Raven leader and loyal Odin warrior, Will Yager, isn’t just nice. He’s gorgeous, hot, and a distraction she simply can’t afford.
Yager has wanted Neecy in his life—and in his bed—for a long time. Not just for a night, but forever. And, like any self-respecting Viking, he’ll stop at nothing to get what he wants. So what if she’s the most difficult, complex, never-gives-him-a-break woman he’s ever known? She’s more than worth the effort. In fact, she’s worth everything.
And if it turns out that twenty-four hours of non-stop, any-way-she-wants-it sex doesn’t work with Neecy? Then it looks like he’ll just have to get a little more creative…
Warning: Contains a strong, intelligent, ass-kicking heroine; an alpha hero with the occasional geeky tendency; gritty, realistic violence; and sex so hot that, well, let’s just say there’s not enough ice water in the world…
Darcy's Review:
OMG, this book was so much fun to read. It had all the characteristics of books that I come to rely on from this author, woman that are strong, fight like crazy, are slightly crazy, have a wicked sense of humor and a razor sharp tongue, and really hot sex scenes.
I wasn't too sure when I started this book, but soon I was sucked into this story and really loved Neecy and her ornery personality. Yager was fun too, he was so much like a love sick puppy dog it was fun watching Neecy beating him down, but he just wouldn't give up and there in lies so much of the fun of the book. I also loved getting to know the Crows and the Ravens and how they were so different from each other, yet so a like too. The way each would pick and bug the other like siblings really made for some fun scenes, especially the ones between Mike and Janelle. What a great book to read!!
