Destined Mate is the thrilling second book of Red Moon Pack series.Author Vanessa Sims brings us the story of Noah the Alpha of the Red Moon Pack. In the first book Noah sticks up for two members of his pack, Ethan and Isaiah, when they discover that they are destined for each other. We pick up in Destined Mate as the Elders are not accepting of two men being mated to each other and seek to ensure it does not happen again. They force Noah into mating with a female from another tribe. Noah is reluctant but agrees to protect his younger brother.When Rachel arrives with her brother Mitchell to be mated with Noah, Noah realizes his true mate has arrived. Surprisingly the mate is Mitchell and not Rachel. Now Noah must choose between letting down his brother and setting him up for something he is not ready for or letting go of his true mate. Mitchell must decide if he is willing to take his sister’s dream of being mated with the Alpha of the Red Moon Pack. Then there are the Elders and their obviously disdain of two men being mated.Sims ability to explore the depths of emotion with her characters is remarkable. Her characters are fully developed and rich with personality. You feel every heartbeat, sexual tension, sensuality, fear, disappointment, erotic encounter, and triumph. The story is full of friendship, family, revenge, challenge, vivid sex, suspense and surprises. The ending is exciting and beautiful. I highly recommend it!
