Vivian Roussel is a Werecat, but in her
clan she is a very special one as she is a direct descendant
of a highly regarded goddess. As a matter of fact, Vivian
is sometimes described as a demigoddess herself. In
day-to-day life, Vivian runs an antique store with her
brother, one that for some reason has attracted a lot of
unwanted attention. Trying to figure out why and to beef up
the security, Vivian agrees to get a new security team that
does more than just put security into place. Maybe now they
can figure out what is behind the sudden attraction the
shop, Vivian and her brother have gotten.
Pavel Federov is a surveillance expert
who runs his own firm. Pavel is a Russian Blue Werecat who
can pick and choose which assignments to take. When he is
contacted concerning the problems with Vivian and her shop,
Pavel agrees to talk because they are a reference from a
very good client. Something is seriously off with the
breakins and the surveillance that seems to be happening,
but Pavel can’t seem to put his finger on what is behind it
because nothing can be pointed at as the cause.
The attraction that Pavel and Vivian
experience is unexpected because all clans have a taboo
about mating with Werecats out of your own clan. That just
doesn’t seem to matter to either Vivian or Pavel the more
they learn about each other. That is background to the
danger that is discovered when Vivian’s brother discovers an
historical idol. Now, the what is known and so Pavel,
Vivian and others just have to discover the who, how and
why. Inter clan problems with both Pavel and Vivian’s clans
seem to be happening at the same time – is this just a
coincidence or can this also somehow be involved?
Clans of Werecats, ancient religious idols, death and
passion are some words to what can be found in Prey.
Vivian has always taken her responsibilities in the clan
seriously, but she has also made sure to keep those
decisions that are hers alone to make. Pavel immigrated to
New York after suffering a major loss and now he runs a
security company. Pavel and Vivian are brought together by
danger and a stolen idol. It will take both passion and
determination to put things the way they should be and keep
them together. I was intrigued with all the very intricate
subplots that were going on at the same time. Vivian and
Pavel know what they want and are going to make sure they
fight for it. The intense feelings that both felt not only
for the other but also for their clans and just their strong
core of what was right and wrong was enough to keep me
wanting to know what was next. As I said in the beginning,
Prey has everything a good who-done-it should
have and to top it off there is a happy ending that will let
you purr. |
