Dark Alpha's Command

I’m stoked! We finally get Balladyn‘s story. I wasn’t sure we would get one with all the ups and downs with this outstanding character. He went from shiny hero to evil villain to fierce Reaper and his journey runs through more than one series by this exceptional author. Balladyn was always a compelling character whether good or evil. And always a sexy beast. He’s had so many challenges and there are a few more in this story when something connects him with the new leader of the Skye Druids, Rhona. She’s a beauty with Druid magic but she is not yet comfortable with her new role. Her story starts out with a painful incident that calls on Balladyn to come to her rescue. From there mystery ensues when the culprit(s) are unknown. Is it the evil Others or a villain closer to home? And that is only one mystery in the story. It’s full of intrigue, danger and drama that calls for friends to aid Rhona, along with the Reapers, to uncover the ones behind the attacks. I loved seeing the old favorites from another series with the Warriors and the MacLeod Druids. So many fantastic supernaturals in one place! In addition to the terrific suspense and mystery, there is the swoon worthy romance that blossoms between Balladyn and Rhona. The fierce protective streak that drives Balladyn is panty melting, then add in his sexy heat and passion, and the beautiful Rhona’s is all in with the hunky Reaper. So good! Another two of my favorites, Aisling and Xaneth, also show up for the big fight. This is an excellent continuation of this Reaper series full of fierce supernaturals, male and female, intense danger, violent battles, evil enemies, and a superb good vs evil element. Then romance ain’t bad either. In fact, it is deliciously sexy with a couple that is on fire but are also supportive and protective of each other. Absolute perfection! I can’t wait for the next installment in this terrific series. This one is a must read!

I was excited that Balladyn got his story! Ooooh this book had it all—Quick pacing, good romance, action, interesting backstory and conflict. The characters were well developed and well written. The story kept me reading into the late night. I loved Balladyn and Rhona’s journey! Bring on the next book! Huge thanks to Donna Grant for providing an ARC.

Wow, Donna Grant has done it again. This is Ballaydn’s story and it was well worth the wait. I have been a fan of Donna’s since her first book and have followed and read all of her series. With each book in her series, the story continues to capture you from the first page of the book through the last and leaves you wanting the next book in the series, and this book was no exception to that. Balladyn’s story began in an earlier book and was weave through several books in the series with his HEA culminating in this book. This book kept you engaged throughout, provided moments of anguish, joy and love and terminated with a feeling of all is right in the world when two souls find the everlasting love they seek. It also gave you the beginning of the next story in this series. Therefore leaving you with anticipation for the next love story. If you have never read Donna Grant, I highly suggest you pick up the first book in the series “Dark Alpha’s Claim”, read the other books in the series, and culminate with this book. You will not be disappointed.

Donna is truly an author who captures your interest, makes you laugh, cry and evoke other emotions while reading her books and leaves you both with a happy feeling and anticipation for the next book in her series. You get emerged in the story and feel like you know the characters as if they were real people, not fictional characters.
