The heroine has always lived in denial regarding her family's 'gift's and her own special abilities. And because of it she denied herself the mate bond with the hero and severed ties with him. But now he's back. He's back to help her with the fact that she's being hunted and sexually touched by an invisible force and he's back to be with her. Though it's not his family that believes in the bonding, he accepts it whole heartedly because he feels it tethering the two of the together. It absolutely killed him when the heroine turned him away but no longer will he allow her to put any distance between them. Slow but surely he begins to draw her out of her bubble and into reality and when she finally beings to accept what she is, that's when she can accept him. I really liked this book and I didn't think I would. I thought it would be romantic suspense to the hilt but it had great characters and relationships laced throughout with the heroine and hero is the forefront. The heroine was frustrating in the beginning with her ignorant and rather stupid plan to put her head in the sand and pretend everything was okay but once she admitted to herself that she wasn't normal I really grew to like her. But she made the hero fight for it. She put up such a wall between them but never once did he falter. Because he was so strong and so powerful, she didn't think she deserved him but the hero was loyal and dedicated to her. The visible wings creature touching up on her was creepy and the eccentric family the heroine works for was creepy. The book did have the mystical creepy vibe of New Orleans and I liked it. But truly it was the hero had made me love it. ( ) This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers. I enjoyed the concept of this book though I think the writing could be more detailed. I'd like to know more background on the heroine. I feel that Cameron skips over more details on exciting parts of the book than she should. I will read the next one so I can find out what happens, but it's not one of my favorites. This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers. Willow Millet and Ben Fortune are members of prominent paranormal families in New Orleans, but Willow just wants to be "normal." When the supernatural monsters that threatened her sister, Marley, seem to be coming after Willow, she has to begin to accept her "powers" and join forces with Ben to fight them. It's an interesting premise, and the chemistry between the characters is extremely genuine and compelling. However, the execution is a little confusing. I wasn't always sure what was happening and I didn't get a good picture of the "Embran" in my head. I'm sure the author has a clear view in her mind, but I didn't feel like it translated to the page. There were also several times during the steamy parts when what she was describing between the characters didn't seem humanly, physically possible, which was distracting. The worst was the climactic fight scene. I had to read it several times because the first time it didn't make any sense at all. The second time, I kinda got what was happening, but had to revise my idea of spatial relations, in particular the size of the "birdcage", as it seems it's big enough for a full sized human person to fight a monster in. The third time, I think it got it, but it was almost too much happening at one time for a person to wrap their mind around. Unfortunately, these things really spoiled my enjoyment of the story. I was left feeling like it could have been so much better in the hands of a more skilled author. I've felt this way before about Cameron's work; largely solid plot threads; good, dynamic, genuine characters with great chemistry; but the execution, the writing itself, is off.
