Blurb
No matter how much the paranormal politics of Atlanta change, one thing always remains the same: if there’s trouble, Kate Daniels will be in the middle of it…

As the mate of the Beast Lord, Curran, former mercenary Kate Daniels has more responsibilities than it seems possible to juggle. Not only is she still struggling to keep her investigative business afloat, she must now deal with the affairs of the pack, including preparing her people for attack from Roland, a cruel ancient being with god-like powers. Since Kate’s connection to Roland has come out into the open, no one is safe—especially those closest to Kate.

As Roland’s long shadow looms ever nearer, Kate is called to attend the Conclave, a gathering of the leaders from the various supernatural factions in Atlanta. When one of the Masters of the Dead is found murdered there, apparently at the hands of a shapeshifter, Kate is given only twenty-four hours to hunt down the killer. And this time, if she fails, she’ll find herself embroiled in a war which could destroy everything she holds dear…

Favorite Lines “Freedom is everything to us. We won’t be slaves.”

“If you’re too scared to try, just say you’re scared, Hugh."

“I love you,” I told him. There. Nice and simple. “I knew you would find me.”
He smiled at me. “I would never stop looking.”

“She recognized me. She knew who I was. It was as if I were the grandchild of a devastating hurricane or an insane monster that had crushed and destroyed for so long, it no longer remembered how to nurture its young, but it still recognized its own blood and it tried to be gentle and to keep its own wrath from destroying me.”

“Your sword is made out of your grandmother’s bones?”
“Okay, I see how it sounds weird when you say it in that tone of voice . . .”

“I don’t know how bad the future will be, but I promise you, we’ll deal with it. You and I. Together.”

“Tell him that if he ever loved my mother, he will understand,”

“Well, he took it worse than I did,” Curran said.
“I don’t see what the big deal is.”
“It’s a sword made out of your grandmother’s bones, Kate.”

“Hey, I warned you from the start it would be weird. I sat in that bathtub with you and told you that this was a really bad idea. You said you loved me and stayed in the tub. As far as I’m concerned, you’ve made your bed. You have to lie in it.”

“Go in, get them, kill anything that gets in the way. You are coming out alive. I promise you that.”

“Death is forever. Death is nothing. But to save a life, that’s everything. My mother understood this and now I finally did, too.”

“Decided to do some claiming of your own?”
“Yes.” His eyes shone with gold. “Mine.”

“There is no shame in being killed by one of your own bloodline.”

“Death should have a terrible beauty to it, don’t you think?”

“Stay with me,” he said.
“Always,” I told him.”

Oh yes I went CRAZY with favorite lines there were just so many to choose from! 
Whew.... When Kate and Curran do something the do it big! Hugh is in Atlanta and coming after Kate through the pack! Kate and Curran are tag ringer than ever in this book. I loved reading this one.
When the pack faces off against Hugh and The People, Hugh of course cheats when they find away around his way to start a war. He kidnaps Kate and Ghastak happens to get sucked into the spell. 
Curran being the  oh so sexy beast lord that he is finds her. She can't believe he's there or where they found her at! She's were her father is! 
Roland was a pleasant shock don't get me wrong I know he would snap the world in 2 if he got mad enough, I am just shocked at the way he handled Kate and Curran. 
When I started this I was sad because I thought I was it was the last book in the series but it's not! Woot woot! 
The ending is SPECTACULAR. I LOVE THIS AUTHOR, SERIES, STORYLINE, AND THESE FANTABULOUS CHARCHTERS!!!

I was given this book in exchange for an honest review (Penquin)
