Review: Arctic Bite by N.J. Walters

I'm so excited to share my thoughts on the newest by N.J. Walters after I was lucky enough to get an ARC. Isn't the cover gorgeous?

What it's about?

Being immortal doesn’t mean you can’t die. It just means you’re damn hard to kill.

When Alexei Medvedev joined the Forgotten Brotherhood--paranormals hired to assassinate other paranormals--he knew it wouldn’t be a cake walk. But his next target is one of Death’s own Reapers gone rogue. For the first time since he started this gig, “damn hard to kill” feels more like “damn near impossible.”

Tracking Cassie Dobbs brings him to a remote bar in small-town Alaska, where this hot-as-hell Reaper is casually serving drinks, as if she doesn’t have a bounty on her head from Death himself. Alexei is dangerously intrigued. Everyone in the Brotherhood knows the first rule: don’t fall for your target.

But Alexei soon has bigger problems to face than an unexpected attraction. They only send assassins after those who deserve to die...or so he’s been made to believe. Now that he’s met Cassie, though, he’s not so sure.

What if everything he’s been told is a lie, and the person he’s been sent to kill is the only one who knows the truth?



Each book in the Fury Unleashed series is STANDALONE:


* Fury Unleashed


* Arctic Bite.

My thoughts:

What a fun ride! Arctic Bite is the second in the Forgotten Brotherhood series by N.J. Walters which is proving to be one not to miss. Just loved these two characters together. We have a polar bear shifter and, yes, Alexei Medvedev is super tall in real life, a bit growly and a hired assassin! Of course, he receives a contract to kill our spitfire heroine, Cassie, who’s not exactly a normal human either, having been a reaper who takes souls to the afterlife...although retired from this. Their connection is electric as the two of them must figure out why someone wants her dead. And the plot twist at the end...no spoilers here but it was *amazing* with the big reveal...loved this book. Masterfully written with beautiful characterizations. This is a standalone; no need to read the previous. The cover is gorgeous. This book is an adventure to read.
