Darkness Bound

by J.T. Geissinger

About this book

Ambitious investigative reporter Jacqueline "Jack" Dolan has made it her life’s mission to destroy the Ikati, a secretive society of shape-shifters. Her scathing editorials have successfully turned public opinion against them, painting a target on her back. In retaliation, the Ikati send their most lethal operative, the hulking and irresistible Hawk Luna, to seduce and blackmail her. What begins as a calculated game of vengeance quickly spirals into a volatile, forbidden romance that defies their conflicting loyalties.

This gripping installment in the world of the Ikati masterfully blends urban fantasy with dark romance. As Hawk kidnaps Jack and whisks her away to his jungle stronghold, the two find themselves trapped in a web of deadly colony politics and the threat of a global species war. The tension is palpable as enemies must navigate a treacherous path where their burning passion could either bridge the divide between their species or lead to their mutual destruction.

Perfect for readers who crave high-stakes drama and addictive character dynamics, this story delivers a pulse-pounding experience. With its expert use of the enemies-to-lovers trope and complex world-building, it is a must-read for anyone seeking a paranormal romance that refuses to let go until the final page.

... into the world of shape-shifters continues to be as good as the previous books

The fascinating journey into the world of shape-shifters continues to be as good as the previous books. The addiction is the beautifully described relationships that occur as the action continues around them. Each couple has their place in the scheme of things and the reference to them as the series is read keeps us involved, that and because the men are obsessively protective and completely enthralled by their women and don't we all want this. The love between Hawk and Jack is particularly...

Oh J.T. Geissinger how I love thee. I was captured and taken prisoner from the moment I read Shadow's Edge and have been addicted to the series.

Hawk is one of our assassins and a member of the Brazil tribe under the leadership of Alpha Alejandro. Hawk is sent out to get blackmail material on a human journalist who has swayed public opinion against the shifters. As...

Another Roller Coaster Ride Of Emotions

July 9, 2022

This series is very well written and brings on all of your emotions. If I may express my one criticism, it is the name “Jack”. Yes, it is a nick name for Jacqueline. However when starting the book and learning the characters I had to keep remembering she was the main character. Naturally I will be starting the next book in the series immediately! It is an excellent series! ) One person found this helpful
