UF Review: Immortal Trust [Mass Market Paperback]


I've finished "Immortal Trust" the 3nd book in her Immortal series by Claire Ashgrove.

Product Description

Immortal Trust is the third book in Claire Ashgrove's exciting series about sexy Knights Templar and the modern women they will do anything to protect.

When archaeologist Chloe Broussard accepts the contract to lead a dig in Ornes, France, she has no idea she will uncover the Veil of Veronica. When she does, she discovers a danger far greater than the demonic presence stalking her at night. Azazel wants her, as well as the Veronica, and his chosen minion is her brother. Her hope lies with immortal Templar Knight Lucan. Her life depends on oaths she knows nothing about.

For countless centuries, Lucan of Seacourt has lived with the knowledge that his brother killed their family. Now, as Azazel’s darkness eats away at his soul, old betrayal stirs suspicion. He trusts no one. Not even the seraph who can heal his dying spirit.

With the fate of the Almighty hanging in the balance, Lucan must find faith in something more terrifying than the dark lord’s creations. He must
learn to believe his heart.

My Review:

The book opens with a prologue that is quite ominous that sets the tone for the rest of story.

Lucan accompanied by Caradoc and Gareth a European Knight are on mission to retrieve the Veil of Veronic and to claim his seraph.  Lucan mission is more personal because he knows Chloe is his seraph.  He is determined to woo her by gaining her trust first after observing how Merrick and Farran claimed their seraphs.

Archaeologist Chloe Broussard can sense demons since the dig in Egypt.  She doesn't know it yet but she is about to unearth a vital artifact Veil of Veronic that Azazel is trying to obtain. 

She has tried to prove herself over the years so she is wary because here is another man she is attracted to who probably wants to take the fame just like the last man.  The previous one betrayed her trust so she is determined not to be duped twice.  Also she can't let Lucan close because she's afraid to reveal the darkness she hides inside.

This is a very fast paced with non-stop action and thrills.  It was quite suspenseful because you never know when Azazel or his henchmen will show up though the danger is even closer by.

4/5

Thanks Tor Books for sending me this book to review, greatly appreciated!
