Former Argenti agent Darren Sumner is
happy with his Alpha werewolf lover, Aden Richter, but all
isn’t perfect. Darren still isn’t sure where he fits into
Aden’s pack, whose members all seem to hate him. Then a
former colleague arranges to meet Darren, and warns him that
something strange is going down in the werewolf world.
Aden is in the midst of a delicate
balancing act. He’s never been as attracted to a lover as
he is to Darren, and he’s continually impressed by the man’s
resourcefulness, but he’s also dealing with Darren’s past as
a werewolf-killing Argenti and the pack’s extreme dislike
for the man. Hearing that an ex-lover who almost got him
killed is holding fundraisers all over the city bothers Aden
a lot more than he wants to admit. When he and Darren
discover what’s really going on, will they be able to stop
it before it’s too late?
On the Ragged Edge of the World is an
action-packed story. I recommend reading Trick of Silver
first to see how Darren and Aden got together, but the
book could probably be read without that (it just wouldn’t
be as enjoyable). Former agent Darren is having trouble
fitting into his new life, but his fighting skills and
cleverness set him in good stead. I liked the way he was
willing to fight for status in the pack, and his dislike of
sitting on the sidelines. Protective, alpha male Aden
showed more of his tender side, and more willingness to
compromise when necessary. There are several interesting
secondary characters, and the plot (which I won’t spoil
here) is full of twists, turns, tension, action, and of
course, hot sex scenes. Despite the violence and fighting,
the story concludes on a sweet and satisfying note. Fans of
Jamie Craig, werewolves, or stories with a lot of action
will be sure to enjoy On the Ragged Edge of the World.
