In the wake of the battle with the Gothi, Elle is struggling. Insecurity and chaos have taken a toll on her, and her heart longs for just a few moments of uninterrupted peace with the man she loves. When, once again, the Lakes are faced with even more trials and tribulations, she comes to the realization that in her own despair\u2014completely unaware of doing so, she has left her man in doubt. And yet, even when she resolves to assure him of her feelings she fears her ex-boyfriend\u2019s memories, which are stuck in his head, may rise to the surface.
\nAsher Lake sets out on a mission to find his predecessor Grant\u2014who exists in his wolf form in the woods of Brokenridge, all the while knowing that there is no answer to the Raven\u2019s curse on his own life\u2014at least none he will accept. Knowing that his end is imminent he resigns to fate. The only thing he has to do in the meantime\u2014other than continuing to strengthen his position as leader to the Union and keeping his family in line, is convince the woman he\u2019s willing to sacrifice everything for of just how much he cares. However, even when his adversaries continue to haunt him and more and more questions rise up to torment him, his true quandary lies in this\u2014knowing just how to go about popping the question\u2026again.<\/p>\n

I can\u2019t get enough of the Union Series!!! All the trials and tribulations, twists and turns, and most importantly the stolen moments while living life to the fullest really sets this series apart from others. This is book 5 in this series and it continues to grow with new characters and crazy plot twists. I am not sure how the author dreamt this stuff up but the series has kept me on the edge of my seat from the very beginning and this installment holds true. The entire story is told from all of the characters points of view. Some people don\u2019t care for this but the author does it in a way that we know what each character is feeling and what each one is going through. The characters are so real that you can\u2019t help but want to help them fight or give them a hug when they are down. They continue to fight the good fight but continue to uncover new secrets that always put a kink in things. I feel like they are getting sooooooo close to Grant (they have even talked to him!!!) and trying to get the curse put to rest.\u00a0 Asher is taking the time to get closer to Elle and trying to get some alone time but some of those moments continue to get stolen with all the chaos that comes with being Keeper. I am worried for Asher though as I sometimes get the feeling that he is done fighting but at other times I know he won\u2019t give up. He is a tough cookie to figure out sometimes, but hey, that\u2019s why I love him, haha! I thoroughly enjoy how this story ends but I am sitting on pins and needles to start reading book 6. My only hope is that by the time I am finished with 6 that 7 will be out. Crossing fingers!!!<\/p>\n
