Vanished Pride (Seven Sin Sisters #4) by Paloma Beck

[Eva Millien]

Blurb:

(Off Goodreads):

Seven sisters are entwined in a legacy larger than ever expected. One by one, they’ll find their mates from the Valendite Breed, a group of near-immortal men, and secure their place in history. The trouble now is Paige. She has too much pride to go down easily so when confronted by her mate, she convinces him to give her more time.

Donovan agrees to Paige’s plan until things around him start to go wrong. He’s losing his concentration, making mistakes on critical missions for the Terrorist Elimination Unit (TEU), and now he’s assigned as Paige’s bodyguard. 

Donovan’s only weakness is his need for a mate to carry on the Breed. Now that he’s found Paige, the time has come for him to claim his mate. Taking Paige in hand might be the only choice he has as forces continue to mount against the Breed. Their Pronouncement will need to be sooner rather than later.

My Review:

The fourth book in the series is a captivating and charming romance.  Paige’s soul sin is the sin of Pride and she insists she must accomplish all her goals before she can the Valendite Breed, Donovan.  The time has come for Donovan to claim his mate, so he’ll just have to take her in hand and their Pronouncement will have to be sooner rather than later before the forces mounting against them attack.

This fast paced plot keeps readers well entertained with some suspense, drama, and romance.  The author gives the story life with vivid imagery that captures the imagination and the strong compelling characters are easily related to and inspire lots of curiosity that has the reader wanting to know more. 

The attraction between Paige and Donovan burns up the pages and the sex scenes, including quite a bit of spanking, scorch the reader with fiery passion but the relationship is hampered by Paige’s soul sin and Donovan’s over-protectiveness. 

Tensions build as Donovan has to let Paige be bait in order to not only capture one of their enemies but to fulfill his promise to her.  The author has created an intriguing series where every soul sin makes every story different and reveals more of the prophecy regarding the sisters in each one.  So far I have found the quick romances to be enjoyable and entertaining and this one is no different.
