Review – ‘Fated’ by Shayla Black

Blurb 

Ronan Wolvesey is an eternal bachelor, always on the prowl for a woman to enjoy…then forget. But Kari Keswick is utterly unforgettable. He can’t stop his growing obsession for the beautiful pub owner. But his family was cursed a thousand years ago, and if he gives into his urge to make her his mate, the curse could cost Kari her life.

Though Kari has pined for Ronan since the moment he walked in her door, she has refused to be another notch on his well-marked bedpost. But Ronan’s seductive prowess finally proves too strong, and Kari surrenders to him, knowing that he will leave her. After a stunning night like no other, Ronan realizes that he wants her forever and must face his greatest challenge: give Kari up for her own good or believe that love truly can conquer all.
 
Review

Kari is a spunky heroine and I instantly liked her. She owns her own pub, caters to humans and wizards alike, and she’s crushing on a sexy wizard named Ronan. Too bad he goes home with a different woman every night. They’re friends but she won’t give him a chance at anything more, too sure he’d break her heart with his man-whore ways.

Ronan and his wizard family (all men) live under a curse. If they fall in love and take a mate, the woman will die and they’ll live in misery for centuries. Or so they believe. He’s a lover, not a fighter, but he’ll do anything to win Kari’s heart.

Kari and Ronan’s love story brought tears to my eyes. They’re in love, but they have so many problems to overcome. Besides that, an evil wizard has returned to destroy all of magickind. The Doomsday Brethren, a motley group of sexy, badass warriors, are seriously outnumbered by the new threat but they vow to take it on no matter what.

I believe this book is 1.5 in the Doomsday Brethren series. Well-written with good pacing, I loved this story and I want to read more in the series!
