IMMORTALS: THE RECKONING is an intriguing trio of stories in the continuing saga of the Immortals. In Wild Hunt by Jennifer Ashley, Logan is a cop and a werewolf who has been banned from his pack. He was supposed to be the alpha male but the female chose another. Rather than fight to the death, he left his pack and moved to LA. He met Nadia, a demon, when he interviewed her during a case in which she nearly died.

Now, Nadia is calling for his help. He follows her to Northern California and discovers she has been coerced into enticing him into a trap. The wolf who replaced him as alpha male has never gotten over the humiliation of being considered second best. He wants Logan dead and is willing to fight unfairly.

Then in Blood Debt by Joy Nash, Arthur Jackson Cabot IV has longed for the day when he can take revenge on the man who turned him into a vampire. When he discovers that the Sidhe who left him asleep and alone in Paris is still alive, he abducts her. His plan is to use her to trap LeGrande so that Cabot can stake him.

Leanna has vowed to no longer use her powers to harm and at first refuses to help the man she left behind in Paris. However, her love for Jackson is so strong that she is able to convince him that his being a vampire is no impediment to them; if only he will give up the plan of revenge.

LeGrande forces the issue and Leanna must rescue her lover from the evil LeGrande before he can kill Jackson.

Rounding out the trio Beyond the Mist by Robin T. Popp, Jenna Renfield holds herself responsible for the death of her parents and sister. She has many friends among the gods and immortals that occupy Earth. One is Dave, a spirit walker, who longs to get to know Jenna in a more meaningful way after he entices her out of her depression.

Sekhmet made a deal with Poseidon that would allow him to take her first born grandchild. When Poseidon appears, Sekhmet offers him Jenna in trade.

Jenna accepts the offer of a free cruise to get away from Dave. Her attraction to him is growing but he seems unable to give up all the women he dates. Dave follows her because he senses danger around Jenna.

Jenna will have to prove to Poseidon that she is not guilty of murder. Only then will she be free to accept the love Dave offers.

My favorite stories were Wolf Hunt and Beyond the Mist. As a reader who normally abstains from vampire stories, Blood Debt was a little more descriptive than I normally like. It was an engrossing story; just a little too much blood and gore for me. Even though I keep my paranormal reading to a minimum, this set has kept my interest due to the talents of the writers.
