Commentary Conducive To Books Scent of Darkness (Darkness Chosen #1)
A thousand years ago, a brutal warrior roamed the Russian steppes and struck a sinister bargain. In return for the ability to change at will into a coldhearted predator, Konstantine promised his soul—and the soul of his descendents—to the devil. Then one day a dangerous prophecy reveals the truth: One family has been chosen to battle the darkness—or face damnation. Ann Smith loves her dynamic boss, Jasha Wilder, but her daring plan to seduce him goes awry when she encounters a powerful wolf who, before her horrified eyes, changes into the man she adores. She soon discovers that she can't escape her destiny, for Jasha is Konstantine's descendant, and Ann is the woman fated to break the curse that binds his soul.Rating Appertaining To Books Scent of Darkness (Darkness Chosen #1)

I dont know what to say about this. The sexyness was intense but bordering on rape. And I couldn't believe the hero's "instant whatever you want to call this " after ignoring her for so long. And her going from desperately trying to fight him off during sex to then a page later entreating him to her come back safely... Yeah I'm just not buying what this is selling.the final straw for me was their 2nd time being intimate:(view spoiler)["his teeth lightly nipped until she gave him what he wanted.These are the reasons why I didnt like this book:> The story starts off in a really uncomfortable way. The h gave me the impression of a stalker or a stage-5 clinger with her thoughts and behavior, tbh. > I didnt like the vibe of their first sexual encounter. I didnt find it hot or steamy at all. (view spoiler)[It was a little too close to rape, imo. (hide spoiler)]> I didnt like the h. My first impression of her wasnt good to begin with (the stalker behavior from the first few
This book was truly outstanding-these days, the paranormal has become increasingly common in the romance genre. This particular series, the first one, was a truly nice surprise. Instead of having the common elements found in paranormals, this one contains a fresh storyline that pushes the boundaries of good and evil. Definitely a must-read for anyone that desires a storyline that is not predictable, and is full of twists that leaves you panting for more.

Having read and enjoyed other books by Christina Dodd, I was more than a little surprised by this one and not in a good way. It was both confusing and had me checking again and again that no, it was not the author's first book and that yes, she did write it.I had only read half of the description and seeing the "secretary in love with her boss who she discovers turns into a wolf", I just jumped in, expecting a very different kind of story that would deliver feels.Unfortunately, no part of it did
First in a series. The story takes place in the Pacific Northwest. Christina weaves a fine mystery. Can't wait for the next book.
Way too rapey. And the heroine is an idiotic stalker.
So later in the book Ann started showing tgose ways the female main characters act that gets on my nerves but with her i couldnt really get mad because it qas mostly because she thought she was unloveable. I am so glad i finished this book and cant wait to read the others.
