ANCIENT ENEMY by KATIE REUS

Book Blurb:

She should be his mortal enemy.

Ancient dragon shifter Rhys awoke from his slumber hungry for revenge against the witch who killed his sister. When his hunt takes him to the rebuilding city of New Orleans, he finds a woman he can’t keep his eyes off—but she’s a witch. While Rhys wants to despise all of Dallas’s kind, even he can’t deny that she’s beautiful, kind and…adorable. And her pet baby dragon only increases his fascination with the sexy woman. Protective instincts he never knew he had take over him as they hunt powerful monsters. He’s forced to confront everything he thought he knew about witches as his life is turned upside down.

But he wants her anyway.

Dallas Kinley is used to being hated because of what she is. Witches have always been the pariahs of the supernatural community. Until now, when the world needs rebuilding. Even though she wants to keep her distance from Rhys, vampires and humans are dying in New Orleans, so she vows to help him hunt down those responsible. But finding the enemy comes at a heavy price, because Dallas is hiding a terrible secret. As they race against the clock to find the murderers, she can only hope his need for revenge won’t rip them apart. Especially when he finds out what she’s been hiding from him.

Author note: Book can be read as a stand-alone complete with HEA.

Review:

The second book in the Ancients Rising series focuses on dragon shifter Rhys and witch Dallas.

This was a slow build relationship and it worked for these two characters. Both have series trust issues. Rhys doesn’t trust witches, and Dallas doesn’t trust anybody.

Their story is spent on them learning to have each other’s back and trusting each other literally with their lives. They way Rhys let’s go of his intense hate and self reflects on himself and his biases was so emotional to read. The way he put Dallas first was inspiring.

I am enjoying these characters and look forward to more from this series.

Favorite Scene: Chapter 8

She didn’t trust him with the truth yet….OMGoodness!!!
