Story Rating ~ 4 StarsHero Rating ~ 5 StarsHeroine Rating ~ 5 StarsRomance ~ 4 StarsHeat Level ~ 2.5 StarsEnding ~ 4 StarsOverall Rating ~ 4 StarsThe story has been done many of times, but I felt this one had an originality that added to both the hero and heroine, Zan and Arianna's characters. I loved them both and the MANY of other characters that were introduced throughout this book.I found myself smiling, laughing and tearing up as I read this book. I was definitely invested in both the characters and the story line. I loved reading how these two struggled with being apart, and how they had to deal with the many things that occurred to keep them that way. There was also a lot of everyday family and friends stuff going on throughout the story that added a lot to my overall enjoyment, it keep the story line moving and the pages turning.My heat rating of only 2.5 was due to the fact that there was only one love scene. While I thought that scene was very erotic and pleasing for me to read, I feel I need to warn readers that they may find it disturbing. Zan saw what he wanted and felt Arainna was his mate, and he just took her, but he did not hurt her, he fell in love with her instantly. The chemistry Zan and Arianna was very believable. Every time they just looked at each one other, I could feel the sizzle!The ending wrapped up wonderfully, not only for Zan and Arianna, but also for many of the other characters that were introduced. I also enjoyed that the few mean characters got their comeuppance. I love when a book ends, and there are absolutely no questions left unanswered and I'm left sighing and with a smile on my face.
