I'm a fan of Rebecca Royce, and I jumped at the chance to read Forever. The first book in her new Dragon War Series.Lena has known since she was seven years old, that Devin was her mate. All she had to do was wait to grow up, so that he would smell her, and recognize the connection.What Lena hadn't counted on was Devin leaving her to fight in the Dragon Wars, and keeping him away from her for fifteen years. Her Dreams of happily ever after with her mate, isn't turning out the way she had hoped.Devin returns from ten years of fighting, and five years of being a Prisoner of War. He is a much changed man. Devin has lost his wolf, and sense of smell while he was in captivity. Not being able to scent Lena as his mate, Devin rejects her.Lena is devastated by Devin's rejection, knowing that she will never be able to mate with anyone else. She is resigned to her fate, but offers herself to Devin for a night of passion. He refuses at first, but then gives in and start to develop feelings for Lena. Now the question is, will it be enough?This is a great beginning to a new series. My heart really went out to Lena, but she is a fighter, and didn't give up on her man. I really got a feeling for the emotions driving both of these people. The author did a very good job getting that across in the writing. I very much wanted Devin, and Lena to have their HEA.I liked that both characters were relate able. The sexual tension, and intimate scenes were sexy, sensual, actually they were HOT! They were very well written, and went with the feel of the story.These characters stayed with me long after I finished reading this book.I'm looking forward to the next book in The Dragon War Series.I was given a copy of this book by the publisher in exchange for a honest review.
