Summary: 5 Stars
Now that he's returned home from an eight month security detail out of town, Eli is determined to finally claim his mate. It's been a long time coming, and in the time he's been gone, she's been attacked not once, but twice. Twice, her life has been threatened, and he couldn't be there to protect her. He'll do whatever it takes to claim Nikki for his mate and protect her against all threats. But first, he has to tell her he is a shape shifter...
Nikki has loved Eli for years, but never thought her brother's friend returned those feelings. She especially never thought he'd want her now, with her face still scarred from the first attack. But since his return, Eli looks at her like he's a wolf intent on eating her up, and for the first time she starts to wonder if those far-fetched rumors about the Graham twins are true...
If you have already read Annmarie McKenna's first shape shifter story, Seeing Eye Mate, then you must be panting like wolf for the sequel to that story, Checkmate! McKenna did a fine job of teasing us thoroughly with just enough about Caelan's identical twin brother, Eli, to leave us salivating for more! And she does not let the readers down with Checkmate. Both Eli and the plot far surpassed my greatest expectations, and left me hungry for yet another sequel!
Nikki is strong, yet almost broken after two brutal attacks. You can feel her fear and pain as she struggles for a life resembling some kind of normalcy while her attackers are still unidentified and remain at large. Her despair over whether Eli could ever look at her the same way again, much less feel romantic love for her after the attacks is enough to break your heart.
Of course, when Eli arrives on the scene, he picks up the pieces of both Nikki's and the readers' hearts right quick, as he sweeps Nikki off of her feet and into his world. Watching an Alpha Male like Eli in full-out protective mode take care of the woman he loves is enough to put butterflies in any woman's tummy, but the sensitivity with which he treats Nikki is enough to make your knees wobble!
With Checkmate, Annmarie McKenna proves once again that she has a decided flair with romantic suspense as she weaves an intricate plot sure to keep you on the edge of your seat!
