Rowan Gregor is a CIA agent who vows never to get close to another wolf after his pack is brutally murdered by hunters. Enter Elijah Kane, an efficient and shadowy omega assassin on the run from the CIA. When Rowan is tasked with hunting down Kane, he ends up at the mercy of a wolf with nothing left to lose - a wolf who is sure Rowan is his mate. Elijah Kane is hell bent on proving he's stronger and smarter than every alpha he meets - including the alpha CIA agent sent to kill him. But Rowan lights a fire of lust that Elijah can't ignore. They share a rare connection - a mate connection - and he's not going to give up on Rowan until the man sees it too. Trapped in a snowy wilderness and besieged by hunters, desire sizzles between Elijah and Rowan. Can they overcome their differences, and their pasts, and forge a bond to save their future?
Omega In The Shadows is a fast paced story about Elijah Kane, who's a werewolf assassin, and Rowan Gregor, who's a werewolf CIA agent. I was intrigued especially since the assassins and overall how Perdita could make the couple work since Rowan was bound by law and Elijah listened to no one. Also it happened that Elijah stole my heart. Smart-ass, witty and rebellious assassin who didn't took orders from others, especially from alphas, was bound to make me fall in love with them.
There was twist and turns, and just when I though the plot would stop for a while - that there was no twists left - Perdita turned the story upside down, or at least brought some new aspects. I loved how it surprised me all the time without making it feel that things were brought up to be a shock value only. They only made me want to read the whole book at one sitting because I couldn't stop (it sure was hell to actually work and sleep while reading this!). The story was strong because of Elijah's character and his intriguing and dark past, but the plot and other characters, mainly Rowan, made the story even stronger.
Pleasurable, interesting and full of action with one smart-ass assassin, that's what Omega In The Shadows is all about. There's also a kick-ass romance since it can't be anything else with a character like Elijah Kane and his stubborn and brave alpha, Rowan. I do recommend this for anyone up to good, fast paced paranormal romance!
Now I need the sequel which is about Elijah's brother.
4 of 5 stars.
