Once again Nicky Charles has given us, her readers, a fun ride. This tale of Lycan Link and its top Enforcer, Reno Smith, and its top Damage Control Officer Brandi Johanssen, and their on-and-off relationship is designed to stand alone. Yet as prequel toThe Mating (Law of the Lycans)this bookBonded (Prequel to The Mating)provides a link to the other book by introducing Damien Masterson, who, with Kane Sinclair (hero ofThe Mating (Law of the Lycans)) and Ryne Taylor (Kane's half-brother and hero ofThe Keeping (Sequel to The Mating)) formed the Black Demons, three Lycans whose wolves are all black.In this story we learn more of the background of Lycan society in North America. We learn how packs can come to be dominated by Purists, the fundamentalists of Lycan society; and how Enforcers and Damage Control Officers function to keep Lycan life from the view of the general public. And, of course, there is the evolving relationship between Reno and Brandi.I heartily recommend this book to all readers of romantic novels. I also recommend that you read The Mating first, then The Keeping and then Bonded, as I did. It will give you a clearer understanding of the overall picture of the Lycan world.
