Enthralled by Tiffany Roberts

Ketahn hadn’t wanted a mate. Fate gave him Ivy Foster. Now, he wants nothing more than to enjoy his little human.

But fate is not content to make things so simple.

With an enraged queen searching for him, Ketahn knows the Tangle is not safe for his mate. They need to leave. Yet Ivy will not forsake her people, and he cannot condemn her compassion. When they wake the other humans from their death sleeps, Ketahn now has more mouths to feed, and the strands of his web are in danger of snapping.

To keep Ivy and her people safe, he must placate the queen that hunts him. He must venture into Zurvashi’s domain and face her wrath—and her desire.

The strength of his heartsthread, his bond with Ivy, will be tested.

Ketahn refuses to let that thread break. Even if he must sever all the rest.

This is easily becoming one of my all time favorite sci-fi/fantasy series. I was planning on taking a break from the series to finish up some other books...but that ending.

Cliffhanger warning. Definitely have the third book before finishing this one. Expected it and still gutted.

ENTHRALLED was an apt name for this book because I read it one sitting and couldn't put it down. After book one I was so curious to see how waking the other humans would go and what would happen when Ivy met Kethan's friends. I loved seeing all their interactions and how the dynamic shifted as the humans gained confidence and comfort with the Vrix.

Kethan's friends were instantly fascinated with the other humans and I loved the hints of future human/Vrix pairings that we got. Also, maybe something between Diego and Will...?

I'll keep this review short because I don't want to spoil anything but this book had me invested from the beginning and it was an intense read. Emotions were high, the scenes with the Queen were horrific, and after that ending I immediately started book 3 because I have to know how it all ends.

"Fate brought me to you, my heartsthread, and even if it tried to turn me away, I would defy it. Nothing will come between us. So long as the sun, moons, and stars make their treks across the sky, you will be mine, Ivy."
