PNR Review: Midnight Reckoning (Dark Dynasties) [Mass Market Paperback]



I've finished "Midnight Reckoning" the 2nd book in her Dark Dynasties series by Kendra Leigh Castle.

Product Description

Two separate worlds . . .


One passion that binds them


Wild and passionate by nature, Lyra Black is not just any werewolf. She's the future leader of the powerful pack of the Thorn - if she can stay alive long enough to inherit the title.

One of the Cait Sith bloodline of vampire cat-shifters, Jaden Harrison has no interest in the wars plaguing the world of night. But when he rescues Lyra from a violent attack, they're both captured by an insatiable desire that threatens to overwhelm them and bind them together for eternity . . . just as ancient enemies prepare to strike. And when they do, the Thorn and the Cait Sith-and Lyra and Jaden's love - may never recover from the deadly blow

My Review:

Lyra Black is the daughter of an alpha of the Thorn pack and is determined to lead the pack in the future.  The pack believes in the old rules and didn't think a women is good or strong enough to lead a pack.  They had a Proving where there is a a violent wolf fight to the finish and the winner is announced.  Lyra has declared she is fighting in The Proving and her father is worried so he asks Jaden to teach her how to fight as a vampire.

Jaden Harrison is a Cait-Sith whose pack has been reborned as the Lilim by his best friend Ty and his mate Lily.  Lily the new Queen needs court and guards and both she and Ty would like Jaden to be their captain.  Before he can agree he has to return Lyra's necklace he found when he rescued her from a violent and amorous wolf.

I really enjoyed this fast paced and very thrilling paranormal romance.  Lyra is a perfect match for Jaden because they are both alpha's, strong and stubborn. 

4/5
