Dawn's Awakening by Lora Leigh

The runt of the lab she was created in, Dawn Daniels endured years of torture by her pride brother and the Council soldiers. Finally freed from her torment, she's now a Breed Enforcer, in control of her own life. Until she's assigned to protect the one man destined to be her mate—and realizes it's far too easy to lose total control.

One of the Breed's most important supporters, Seth Lawrence has spent years trying to forget Dawn, knowing that her lost innocence has made it impossible for her to get close to anyone. But suddenly neither of them can find the strength to fight the overwhelming passion between them. At least until the most brutal tormenter from Dawn's past reappears—and threatens to destroy their newfound love, along with their lives.

RRAH's THOUGHTS AND PONDERINGS:

Wow, does DAWN'S AWAKENING pack a powerful punch! Or should I say, a deep throated growl? Either way, this one is intense—mentally, physically and emotionally.

Despite some moments of crassness, DAWN'S AWAKENING is romantic, hot and sexy. The hero and heroine have some heavy emotional baggage, but the mating heat they have no control over soon eclipses that. While not to say that the murderous threats to each of them take a backseat to passion, their love for one another most certainly comes first, and the story is better for that.

While some of the story is over the top, the characters and their plights really shine, making DAWN'S AWAKENING a great character driven read. It also is a wonderful teaser bringing me into the series!
