Rating: 5 out of 5

4.5 STARSThis story and this series has a long and complicated storyline, so I won't try to explain it!I loved King Callum! I loved his mate Sonia (I preferred her to Leah from book one). This book does follow a similar theme to the first in that the couple fight and make up a lot and the heroine doubts the hero has real feelings for her. As usual with KA's heroes, Callum is Alpha Male...she does write a good Alpha Male. Callum is a Werewolf. He has known for years he is to be mated to the human Sonia. He has doubts about this especially as she is human and he doesn't spend much time around humans. She is also blonde and he doesn't 'do' blondes! He can't fight his attraction to her though.When Sonia was young her parents were killed. She has felt alone ever since but when she was young she came across a Wolf in the woods near her parents home. The Wolf was hurt and she took it back to her parents home but the Wolf died. Or so she thought, all her life he has come to her in her dreams. She calls him her 'puppy'.When the human Callum comes into her life and explains that she is to be his Queen and tries to explain the ways of his world (failing to tell her he is werewolf), Sonia fights their fate but she is attracted to Callum. As time goes on, she falls in love with him but she doesn't believe he feels the same way. Lots of misunderstandings occur and then the time comes for Sonia to learn he and his family are werewolves.I have read a lot of KA novels. She will quite often start a chapter with 'two weeks had passed'...then she will go back over the two weeks with what has happened and then end with 'which brings me back to now'. She still does that in this book but fails to use the 'which brings us back to now' bit therefore, I found myself quite confused as to the timeline when I was reading. This happened a few times (that is why I have deducted half a star).Lucien and Leah from the first book make some appearances although Leah seemed like a different character!Callum and Sonia have a very active sex life so there are a lot of sex scenes in this book. Hint: Sonia likes rough sex!I liked all the other characters in this book and the last book and it's a shame they won't get their own stories (or will they KA?!). I enjoyed Callum and Sonia's stories as much as Lucien and Leah's. There is a small teaser for the next book that doesn't give us many clues at all to who the H&H; will be but I look forward to it.I've said before, KA novels have their faults but I love them and am addicted. Can't wait for another KA novel.
