This is a finely crafted tale of suspense. It had me on the edge of my seat for much of it. Skye's abilities are cool and make for an interesting storyline. Highly recommend this one. I received an advanced copy of this book from NetGalley and freely leave this honest review.

This book was a really unique paranormal read. It felt like we dove into the second or third installment in a series because of the rather developed characters and story. We hit the ground running, meeting Skye and Shade, a pair of twins with interesting telepathic abilities. Shade, a cop, has a skill more geared towards police work, while Skye is able to communicate with animals. After breaking up some illegal animal fighting, Skye bumps into Luc, a stranger who has an inexplicable control over some wild animals.

Luc is a conflicted half breed who is straddling the human and "kindred" world. In this book, the word kindred refers to a group of demon-like creatures who can shapeshift. This book was filled with a really unique mythology and a mystery that had me guessing until the very end. The romance was nicely paced, as opposed to your typical love at first sight stories. It was heavier on the romance and mystery and light on the smut (although there was some). This was a great stand alone book to introduce yourself to this author.

This is a good book to get you hooked on this series. If you love shifter books this one is for you.

Luc and Skye met at an animal fight, she was there to soothe the animals, he was there for other reasons. Once they meet it's almost impossible for either not to think about the other. This is their story.

I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This book had a totally different take on shifters and at times I must admit I struggled with it and I usually love Patricia work.

Skye has the ability to communicate with the souls animals while her twin brother Shade can communicate with humans souls something that comes in very handy with his work as a detective When they are both involved in a rescue of animals from a dog fighting ring they realise there are more shifter here than anything It also puts Skye in the sights of Luc Lazare a man who has plenty of secrets of his own When Shade is killed Luc decides he needs to protect Skye but will that decision put her in even more danger You will have to read to see

The first in a three part series. We're introduced to the Powers and the Kindred. Heaven and Hell reflected in both. Luc and Skye are torn between good and evil, and their growing attraction. Action packed from the start. A one sitting read that will have you begging for more.

This is a voluntary review of an advanced copy.

This is a different take on shifters which takes a little bit to understand. The part about the choice each shifter (kindred) had to make to give up their souls was a bit unusual and shows how depraved the group is once they lose their soul.

I enjoyed the book for the romance and the intrigue as Luc and Skye tried to figure out who was behind the fight ring and bring Shade's murder to justice. There was a bit of a mystery to who was behind the fights and a few red herrings to throw you off guessing who it was so it keeps you engaged as you try to figure it out!

I liked most of the characters and look forward to Nuala and Ethan's book and later Nik's. They are all such complex characters as they seem prone to the darkness that is nature to their kind and yet you can't help but like them!

This is the first book I've read from Patricia Rosemoor and I enjoyed immensely.. The story was so original from any other shifter novel I've read that I had a hard time putting it down when necessary.

The protagonists in this book are strong apart from each other but better together. I do wish that Shade played a bigger role! There were some editing issues as far as a word missing here or extra words there, and a few spots where first and third person speaking in the story was switched but then I did read an ARC.

Overall I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys mystery, intrigue, shifters and romance.

This was a fun and entertaining story to read, it made for a fun read to pass a lazy weekend off work with!

I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley and I am voluntarily reviewing it.

I first want to say if you LOVE paranormal romance with mystery, intrigue and suspense, you MUST read this. Second, have a NEW box of tissues ready for the tears! Or it may be just that I'm a softie.

Shade and Skye Cross are twins. They share an unusual connection plus he can read the thoughts of people, she can read the thoughts of animals. Shade is a homicide detective with the Chicago police and she is an animal rescuer. She is at a dogfighting ring waiting for the police to descend to shut it down before she can look after the animals. Her brother comes across her before the raid takes place. He tells her to stay back and gives her a sea glass necklace and tells her to never take it off. Skye is puzzled as to why her brother would attach himself to the raid? Where is his partner, Ethan?

After the raid, Skye chases after a wounded coyote. Instead of finding a coyote, she finds herself facing down three predators! She can even read their thoughts. Normally she converses with animals through pictures. She senses another presence, it is a striking man who commands the animals to leave and much to Skye's amazement, they do!

Skye will come across Luc's path several times. Luc is the illegitimate son of a human woman and the head of the Kindred. Luc walks a fine line between both worlds. He is intrigued by Skye's ability to resist his attempts to erase her memory of him and her ability to hear his thoughts. Who is or really what is Skye?

This isn't the normal paranormal romance. I was glued to my e-reader to figure out who was behind the fighting ring and how it could be stopped! I adored the multiple POV format. There were several POVs other than the two main protagonists. I LOVED that. I was really able to connect to the story as well as the characters that way. The Kindred part of the story was a little on the fantasy side, which I don't read. My poor brain just doesn't comprehend it. But with this story, I was able to fully imagine the story just like I would a movie.

There were some sexy scenes that really just lead up to and then just highly glossed over details before fading away. I would highly recommend this to anyone OVER the age of 18 to read this paranormal romance!

I really enjoyed this book!! It covers just about everything a paranormal book fan would like; shifters, demons vs. angels, with a little ghost action thrown in. The animal attraction between Luc and Skye roared off the page. ;) I really think that there was a lot mentioned in the book that could grow into a series.

The concept of the Kindred Souls is new to me. It is an intriguing paranormal world building with characters who have very interesting and frightening skills. There’s romance and mystery a plenty. There’s also angst and sadness that will break your heart. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
