The love scenes alone were wonderful, and seemed to really connect with the reader. I truly have loved this book, it had such a great sense of love and passion and danger that is perfect with the style of the story and way that the author writes. Despite all the danger surrounding them both, their love will conquer! All the while, a sensual connection strengthens between Danika and Reyes with kisses and touches and a desire that only grows stronger the longer they are together.

They bring her to their fortress, where Danika wants answers to where her family is and if they are still alive. Reyes when he hears of what has happened, he and the other Lords that aren’t out to kill her, goes to help rescue her. She is then found by some other hunters that kidnap her thinking that she is the way in to getting hold of the Lords of the Underworld. She can’t seem to forget the touches that set fire to her skin. Through the months she has dreamed of Reyes, thinking of him constantly. When she is found out by a couple of hunters she defends herself and ends up accidently killing one of them not realizing how much she is actually able to do. Danika having been on the run for months, not seeing her family since they split for one another’s safety. So Reyes has put him in chains and captivity as Aeron’s request so that he wouldn’t kill them. For there is one Lord Aeron, who is unable to stop searching for the women. When the Lord of the Underworld are commanded to kill Danika and her family that they kidnapped months ago, Reyes helped Danika and her family escape and now they are on the run. In order to feel any kind of pleasure he must feel pain, so Reyes continually over the years has had to hurt himself. Reyes is one of the Lords of the Underworld who opened Pandora’s Box, and he became the Lord of Pain.

Yet a future together could mean death to all they both hold dear…. But her dreams are haunted by Reyes, the warrior whose searing touch she can't forget. For months she's eluded the Lords of the Underworld, immortal warriors who won't rest until she and her family have been destroyed. Yet he craves a mortal woman, Danika Ford, more than breath and will do anything to claim her-even defy the gods.Danika is on the run. Bound by the demon of pain, he is forbidden to know pleasure.
