Another seemingly fated demon halfling and his human counterpart, this time a serious captain in the guild fees the pull. This series continues the question about who is truly good and evil, and maybe that there are gray areas to everything, especially when you meet someone that seems meant to spend an eternity with you.
From the Sinful blurb:
“I have to be strong.”
“You are. But you can’t hold the world on your shoulders forever.”
Nathan Accardi fears the Paladin Guild has lost its way. Once fearsome demon hunters, these days they spend all their energy hating a handful of people who left the guild to be with demons. In an attempt to be the voice of reason, he asks Commander Sloan to let him approach the defectors with a truce. He doesn’t expect them to make a halfling demon his point of contact, but he can’t blame them for being wary of him.
He feels an instant attraction to Storm. Fighting it is impossible, and against his better judgment, a night of passion turns his world on its head.
Storm has watched other demons fall for their humans, but it was never supposed to happen to him. When Nathan pulls away after their first incredible night together, Storm swears he’ll do whatever it takes to make him see that they belong together.
But there are more than bloodthirsty paladins closing in. Strange deaths in the city are just the beginning. Something’s coming, and if Nathan isn’t careful, he’ll be caught in the crossfire. Is a truce between the paladins and the rebels worth his life? Will Storm be able to save him from becoming a martyr for a truce no one else believes in?
SNik's review:
Fourth in series (Dark Delights), must be read in order due to overarching storyline. Paranormal. Adversarial to lovers. Found family. Dual POV. Heed content warnings.
Nathan is a captain in the paladin guild but wants to seek a truce with the “traitors” that have found happiness with demon halflings. Initially Storm is sent to determine if their splinter group can trust Nathan, but from the moment they meet he feels drawn to the earnestly honest man. Nathan and Storm are quick to feel attraction, to have feelings and begin a steamy relationship.
I enjoyed the ease in which Nathan accepted his interest in another man, especially one that’s a demon, and that Storm wants to care and protect Nathan from the instant they met. I do wish there was more background and “getting to know you” between them, but all the relationships in this series seem fated which works for the couples and the stories. Nathan and Storm ended up having no problem committing to eternity with each other and were every bit as swoony as could be expected. Really love this series.
