Scotland, Scotty for short, is the youngest daughter of
Ares – one of the Horsemen of the Apocalypse. She and her two friends, Mace and
Blade, make up DART’s top-performing team. When Scotty decides it is time to
lose her virginity, she asks the two to help her find the perfect candidate. Their
latest mission goes disastrously wrong and upsets the trio’s dynamics. Which
one will Scotty ultimately choose? Or will she allow Fate to take the decision off
her hands?
Blade is one of three siblings born to Shade and Runa – a
seminus demon and a werewolf Mace is the only child of Lore and
Idess, a seminus/human hybrid and earthbound angel. Scotty, Blade, and Mace
have pledged not to pursue romantic relationships among themselves. However,
both men have harbored feelings for Scotty for years. An incident during their
latest mission disrupts their tight bond, and it sparks conflict between Mace
and Blade. Can Blade and Mace find a way to resolve their differences?
I am on the fence when it comes to Scotty. There are
things that I both liked and disliked about her. I like that Scotty took more
after her father when it comes to combative skills. She can handle herself
without needing a male to come to her aid or rescue her. Scotty’s attitude did
grate on my nerves now and then.
Out of the three, Mace is the one who annoyed me the
most. He was too much a jerk. I do not remember ever feeling this way towards
Wraith, whom Mace takes after in attitude. However, I do like that he has a
relationship with both Wraith and Lore. I empathized more with Blade. His
family has endured a lot of traumas over the years. I love that Blade and
Stryker finally resolved their differences at the end.
LEGACY OF DESIRE is the third installment in Larissa
Ione’s dark paranormal romance series, DEMONICA BIRTHRIGHT. It is a sequel to
the author’s popular DEMONICA and LORDS OF DELIVERANCE books. This series
follows the next generation – the children of the couples from the prior two
series. I encourage new readers to start there before delving into this one.
Reoccurring characters make frequent appearances throughout the book. Plus, it
allows them to understand the state of the world, and how it got to that point.
I admit that I had reservations going into this book.
Mostly, I feared that it would be a love triangle. And I cannot stand those.
The ones I root for RARELY get chosen. I suspected halfway through it would end
up being a three-way relationship (MFM). That type of pairing is not a favorite
of mine, but one I could accept.
The pairings I am most looking forward to are Amber and
Talon and Sabre and Aleka. I do hope Rade gets a book. For some reason, he
caught my attention (and empathy). I want to know more about him, and I want
him to have a happily-ever-after. Also, I want a book with Dare, Hades and
Cat’s son. So many of the next generation I want to have their
happily-ever-afters!
