New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Cynthia Eden spins a dark and sexy new paranormal romance tale…

He’s a man with a beast inside…

Connor Marrok never intended to work for the Seattle Para Unit. He’s not one of the good guys—he’s a real monster, and the beast he carries doesn’t exactly play nicely. But now he finds himself being blackmailed into a new assignment. It’s supposed to be his last gig. His mission? Protect the beautiful Chloe Quick. Keep her alive. Destroy her enemies. Easy enough…until he starts to fall for Chloe.

She just wants to escape.

Chloe is tired of being a prisoner. She wants to get away from her Para Unit guard and run fast into the night. So what if Connor is the sexiest guy she’s ever met? Chloe knows trouble when she sees it, and Connor is one big, dangerous package of trouble. But, when an obsessed werewolf begins stalking Chloe, she realizes that her paranormal bodyguard may just be the one man she needs the most.

Their attraction is primal.

Every moment that Chloe and Connor spend together increases their attraction. Chloe has never felt a need so strong or a desire so dark. The beast that Chloe carries inside has always been silent, but Connor is stirring up her animal instincts. And as the danger and desire begin to twist together, Chloe wonders just how far she’d be willing to go…in order to spend one more night in Connor’s arms. 

My Review  4 STARS

**My thanks to Netgalley and the author for providing me with a free copy for an honest review**

In this book continuing the Purgatory series we have Connor protecting the late Senators daughter Chloe, however things never go simply in these kinds of stories.

Chloe hates her father, a man that subjected her to all sorts of tests and probing after she was attacked by werewolves when she was 16.  A life that she hated although she never really knew what the man was up to.

Connor is a hybrid, half werewolf and half vampire and is very dangerous, he does not let his beast out completely to play anymore as it is so dangerous.  But there is something about Chloe.  Something that brings out another side of him and something he has to protect no matter what.  She also connects with his about things he could never imagine.

Chloe is sick of being afraid and starts to stand up for herself and those she cares about, Connor is one of those and Chloe shows more of a backbone in this book.

I really enjoyed this instalment and at the end it certainly sets up nicely for the start of the next book for Eric and Ella, the female vampire they rescue.
