I think this is the start of a beautiful addiction.

I received an email from an author asking me to check out the blurb for Jericho to see if it might be something I’d like. Now, my reading and reviewing schedule is pretty damn full at the moment, but this book caught my attention from the blurb alone. I had to make time for it and I’m so bloody glad I did. Jericho is my favourite type of paranormal romance. We have big tough alpha males who struggle with emotions but can’t deny the attraction or devotion once their mates are in sight. We then have baddies that make your skin crawl and you love to hate. Add to that, we have an intelligent and funny heroine who has her own powers and they are AWESOME and you have got one hell of a good read.

Jericho is the King of the Jinn. One day he is overcome with a deep sense of purpose to go on a mission. He doesn’t know what the mission will involve and is uncertain exactly where he is heading. All he knows is that he HAS to go and go NOW. He feels a desperation he has never felt before and the closer he gets there the more his inner system goes haywire. There’s this smell that is taking over and he needs to find its source. When he eventually arrives and find an abandoned building with crumbling walls he’s at a loss to what he’s looking for…UNTIL…the earth moves. Well, not the earth, more the wall and what he finds under that wall nearly makes his heart stop. She’s beautiful, mesmerising and he’s going to keep her.

Abe wakes up with no memory in a strange house. Everything feels strange and off but she’s not sure who she is, why she’s there and if she’s safe. In leaving the bed and bedroom on a mission to find sustenance, she realises she’s in the land of giants. Well, they’re giants compared to her. This house is full of big and beautiful men but there is one in particular who seems familiar to her. He at first seems like he is attracted to her, but then his eyes start going cold. Abe feels even more lost and alone and with no memory, she isn’t sure what her next step should be. What happens next changes everything.

Jericho has been avoiding Abe because he never wanted a mate. He knows she will be too much of a distraction. When he finds out that a spiteful enemy by the name of Tess has her captive, he realises he hasn’t done his job of protecting the most important person in his life. If and when he gets her back, he is determined to let her know how important she is to him and vows to attach them in the mating ceremony.

This story is fast paced and very easy to read. There are steamy scenes when Jericho and Abe finally come together. They are not over the top but just proof that they have a strong bond. The additional characters were fun to meet and very different. We also get to meet different races besides the Jinn. While at times they come together in peace, there are evil vampires and demons that can plague them all. I did find towards the end that they story dragged a little, but it all had its purpose in the end.

Really enjoyed Jericho and I definitely plan to read the second story which involves one of Jericho’s warriors, Reno.
