When Ulric, a lycan gladiator,
meets a mysterious human woman with green eyes, he’s drawn to her fiery beauty,
enraptured by her alluring aroma. Unfortunately, Ulric and the beauty are
slaves. To make matters worse, he can mate only with someone marked with the
sign of the wolf.
Cassia’s hidden wolf mark burns in the presence of the handsome gladiator.
While her heart yearns to be near Ulric, logic warns her against it—having a
slave as a mate is against the lycan society’s plans for her.
In spite of the lycan society’s rules and the emperor’s brutal plots, their
love grows … but their passion just may cost them their lives

Gordon has done it again. I was lucky enough to have read her book Apocalyptic
Moon, which I’m still waiting for the next installment of, and loved every page
of that book. When I was given Lycan Gladiator by her to read and review, I
couldn’t wait to sink into this new and exciting world she had created.
She
gives such detailed descriptions without making the reader want to say hurry up
all ready lol. I could imagine the clothing, to the surrounding, right down to
the last detail and was completely enthralled the entire time. In this
paranormal story Ms Gordon takes you back to the Roman times and gives a twist
to the Gladiator games where there can be only one winner. Only instead of
throwing a lion in to fight a man, they have a lycan who defeats his opponents
to save his fellow pack members who are also being held captives. Her fight
scenes are not for the faint of heart. They are graphic, but they make the book
so much better in my opinion. She doesn’t fill the pages with unnecessary
filler, or fluff. Each page you read keeps you interested and on the edge of
your seat and wanting or needing to read more until you’ve reached the end.
And
last but definitely not least, the thing that makes all paranormal romances a
good read in my opinion is the love scenes. Again, Ms Gordon doesn’t let us
readers down. She gave us the sweet, bone melting, sensual love making that
Cassia needed while still giving Ulric the fulfilling any Alpha Lycan needed as
well. The way she seamlessly blended the sweet Cassia and rough-tough-hardened
Ulric made this a truly wonderful read to me.
