Denying Ecstasy (The Guardians of the Realms #3)
By Setta Jay

SUMMARY:

A headstrong sassy mortal, Rain is a Mageia living in Tetartos, the Realm of beasts and Immortals. Her nights have been restless, filled with sensual dreams of a big blonde Guardian whose glares indicate he wants nothing to do with her. She is determined to shake off the odd feelings until she finds out her dream lover is responsible for her rescue from a demented Demi-God. In doing so, his touch ignites something rare and coveted. Something that she’s never anticipated… Something he should have told her about. Rain is set on making him explain and then feel the full force of her ire.

After a devastating betrayal resulting in the loss of a close friend a century ago, Dorian refuses to trust or engage with Immortals other than his Guardian family. His years of brutal fighting in the underground Immortal rings are over. He patrols the Realms and slakes his lust with the humans on Earth. Existing, but not living as he used to. He knows the moment he scents Rain that he has found his mate and after touching her he plans to avoid her as long as he can... Until he learns she is in danger. Raging, his beast demands that he go to her, but taking her from their enemy has repercussions he fully plans to escape at all costs.

For Dorian, finding a way out of mating Rain means he could succumb to madness and harm those that mean so much to him… but giving in to his burning urge for her means losing control in a heated mating frenzy sure to ignite them both and link them forever.

Warning: brief instances of M/F/F and M/F/M menage, a hot headed, dirty talking alpha male,

REVIEW
Received a copy from NetGalley for an honest review.

Wow, another hot and steamy book! I think a cold shower is needed. I was shocked that we had a guardian that didn't want a mate. He boarder on being a really big jerk! At least Dorian got his act together! I loved Rain, she was everything a heroine could be: strong, independent,t and not afraid to tell her man a thing or two! She wasn't a flakey wishy washy heroine that seems to be populat these days, thank god! Again the author gives you everything to feed your fantasies with way hot M/F and a really hot M/F\M. The scenes are never boring and the dirty talk is just icing on the cake. The story behind the story was interesting too. I wonder what is going to happen to them. Brianne seems to want break it all up and stay alone. I am glad Vane is fighting back!  

The series is staying at a wonderfully high level and just keeps sucking me in! I love the author's world and want to keep visiting!
