Blurb:
He will damn his soul to set hers free.
When workaholic high-flying career lawyer Tara Woji takes a well deserved break and meets up with old friends she doesn’t realise the danger lurking in the shadows for her.
M’na is a chi, a gatekeeper whose duty is to protect the humans. He's lived more than a millennium waiting for Tara and is unable to do more than just watch her.
As the shadows deepen and darkness comes to claim her, he will do whatever it takes to protect her including doing the one thing he shouldn’t, releasing her powers.

This was a short and sweet introduction into Taye's new Black Warrior
series. You meet M'na , A Gatekeeper and his unbeknownst to her, Bondmate
Tara. M'na is a peacekeeper of sorts ensuring that the realm of the man is
not overrun by supers and that supers don't get out of hand. But he has
another more important duty that overrides every responsibility within him
and that is to protect Tara even if it means damning his soul.
I enjoyed the set up of this new world, the idea of the club being like a breeding ground for supers. I did also love the intensity of the connection between Tara and M'na and the smexy scenes were definitely steamy. I would have liked a little more background on some of the characters especially Tara and Okoni and their history. But as a prequel I anticipate much more will be revealed throughout the series. I think this series will have a lot of offer especially if Taye continues to delve into the African mythology and fantasy. Great Start! |
In a flash of motion, he growled and stood before her, pulling her close
till her body lay flush against his hard contour. On contact, the temperature
of the air around them rose. His lips descended on hers for the second time
that night.
This time, the sensations were not a blur. She felt him in every pore of
her body, soaking in his aura, her body and mind overwhelmed by exciting
sensations. The familiarity and recognition returned, along with the desire to
have him inside her, filling her up. Memories of the two of them together
flooded her mind.
Connected, she sensed more than his memories. His emotions wrapped
around her mind like a swirling thread, connecting light, desire, and elation.
Yet, in the depth of his mind, darkness, rage, and remorse lurked.
Her arousal increased. She clung to his muscular arms, her hardened
nipples rubbing against his chest. Despite the clothes between them, it felt as
if skin stroked skin. Her core pulsed. His hand cupped her behind, pulling her
in to feel his rigidity between her thighs.
Feverish sensation coursed through her body, swamping every pore. She
writhed in his arms, her body undulating uncontrollably. He broke the kiss,
focused attention on her neck and sucked her skin.
"Oh!" Colors exploded around her, the orgasm ripped out of her
body violently, blowing her mind.
He pulled away, leaving her panting as the energy arc surrounding them
subsided.
"You…you've got to stop doing that," she said as soon as she
could catch her breath, wondering how she could respond so instantly and
explosively to this man she didn't know.
"It's the only way I can get you to see the truth about us. What
we've always been. What we can become again."
